  • 1 Browse to your carrier's website and enter your account login, or follow the prompts to register at the website. This will include entering details such as your telephone number, name, and a password. The password on the website account is unrelated to the SIM Card password.
  • 2 Select "My Phone" or "About Phone" or similar and look for a settings summary. There may be a sub header labeled "Mobile Information" or something similar.
  • 3 Enter the PUK Code from the website on the phone when prompted to do so. The phone will prompt you after the three PIN Number attempts. You will have ten attempts to enter the PUK Code.
  • 4 Enter a new four to eight digit PIN Code when prompted to do so. The phone will prompt you after the successful entering of the PUK Code.
  • 5 Re-enter the desired PIN Code to confirm.

    Hi

    PIN stands for Personal Identification Number. When you switch off your mobile and switch on again it will ask your PIN No. If you enter the PIN No three times wrong then your mobile will ask for the PUK
    The PIN and PUK are provided on your SIM package, and can be changed many times. The basic purpose of these codes is to provide a security.These codes are normally used to prevent your SIM card from unauthorized use.

    code from the package that has come with your SIM card Get these codes from SIM package and unlock your mobile phoe.But if you have changed your PIN and now have forgotten it then there is also a way to resolve it. When you give an incorrect PIN three times to your mobile phone it will block your SIM card, then in this case you have to provide a PUK given to you by network provider. And you can get your PUK any time by calling at the help line number of your network service centre

    If you got error lately,just turn off you mobile for 1 hour to reset the counter,cause if you continue entering wrong codes,the seem might be rejected or it goes like "simcard rejected

    * turn on your mobile (mobile should be off for 1 hour to reset the counter)
    * if ask for the PUK code,enter it
    * If ask for a "NEW" PIN code,enter your new desired PIN code
    * If ask to verify the code,just retype your new desired PIN code.


    Hope this will help you... good luck...

    Whenever i am opening the phone,,,,it asks for the pin code,,,,,,,,,which i did not [email protected]

    if it is asking for PUK code then contact your phone provider from another phone and ask them for the puk code by telling your blocked sim. If it is asking for pin code then try 0000 or 1234. In case both of these don't work then probably you changed the pin from default. Keep on trying different numbers till it gets blocked and asking for PUK code. Once it asks for PUK code just ask your phone provider and once you give the PUK code it will open.

    My son was on it and gone on something and now got puk on it i tryed code but unsure if right

    please be careful with puk codes. Puk code is asked to you....if you have made three wrong entries to pin/pin2 codes. I asked you to be careful because if wrong puk entries will be made 10 times then your connection will be blocked. To know your puk code you have to call your customer care number saying that your pin is blocked and the phone is asking for puk number. The customer care will do some verification and then they will tell you the puk number.
    Hope this will help 4 sure.....

    My etisalat sim card blocked it asking PUK Code..? my phone no. 0504583665

    Do not enter any code into your phone. The PUK code is a code that your service provider has and not one that you would know or have in your manual. If your an AT&T customer they do provide PUK on their website. If you have entered in a code and the phone is now saying PUK blocked you'll have to go to store to purchase a new SIM card.

    My phone is saying that the sim has been blocked and is asking for a PUK code but we have thrown away the packaging.

    HI If you are asking for pin contact your service provider , he will give you a default pin . If you try pin more than few predefined no of times your phone will ask PUK code which can also be given only by your service provider which is specific for each and every mobile number . Donot try PUK code many times or else your sim will be blocked and you will need a new sim.
    Contact your sim customer care department over phone. Its free of cost to get the pin or puk no.

    Go to the nearest service outlet of your service provider they can also help you.

    There is no other go than the above procedure only your service provider can give it nobody else in this world nor any software.
