I got this Samsung A707 that said network lock when I put my sim card in. I was trying to unlock with www.unlocksamsungonline.com and it wouldn't go into download mode. I noticed it would let me enter a password, so tried 3 different standard phone passwords. e.g. 0000, 1234, random.Duh!! Now it says Phone freeze, contact service provider. Is there any way I can still do something with it, or is it now reduced to a brick. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
phone freeze means you entered 3x an wrong unlockcode
can you tell me your username (only username) you had on UnlockSamsungOnline.com then i can check your account on the server
to put the phone in download mode you need to switch it off
then keep and hold the 9 key pressed and at the same time press poweron button
now you get an black screen with the message download
in support of of the client you can download the needed update package, load this to the phone, and follow steps in the manual
your phone is then unlocked and unfreezed
if you have any questions just ask, then i try to help you
User name srs06050[/e]. I tried your method of placing the phone in download mode and yes that works. I thought the manual said to hold the 9 key while powering [i]off. I am not near my XP machine now, I'll try it tomorrow and see if I can get it unfroze. Thanks
Thanks a LOT for your help. The unlock/unfreeze worked great. Using Wendows XP was a nessesity, as was following all the nicely layed out instructions from the remote server. I would recommend this server to anyone with a locked Samsung. Having said that, I found something interesting. This phone was a AT&T phone. I contacted them after the phone was frozen, and they couldn't help me with the freeze, but they were very willing to give me the unlock code. I thought that was almost impossible to get from a service provider.
