Samsung Remote Unlock Instructions:-
1. Switch OFF your phone.
2. Put in a SIM of a different network provider.
3. Now turn your phone back on. You will see an error message saying
"Wrong Card".
4. Type *#9998*3323# in to your phone.
5. If you've entered the code correctly as outlined in the Step 4, you
Shall see a screen telling you to press exit. So hit the right soft key.
6. Now you will see a Menu of choices. Scroll down and select option 7
(?Jump to Null?). As soon as you select option 7, your phone will turn
Black and reboot itself. After your phone reboots, the SIM will be
Recognized and your SIM will work. (Please be patient while your phone
Reboots and DO NOT press any keys.)
7. Now, at your welcome screen type in *0141# and hit your call button!
This will give you a message saying your phone is Personalized.
8. Power OFF your phone and insert your original SIM.
9. Once done, power ON your phone.
10. At the SIM Code prompt, it will ask you to enter a password. Type
00000000, (that is 8 Zero's). After you enter the code, hit "ok" and
Your phone should power up.
Your phone is unlocked!!!
You can now put the SIM of your choice into the phone and use it at your
Will! Without ANY RESTRICTION!!!
The problem is, if I switch the phone off then when I switch it on again I have to re-enter the code as in step 4 (Phone displays Invalid SIM ... it works fine after entering code etc) ... any ideas how to get around this or what I'm doing wrong?
BTW, now if I try step 7 , I get an "Already personalised" message.
