When using Nokia cell phones, you may encounter several types of blocking. The steps that must be taken to release it differ depending on the type of blockage you are experiencing.
Instructions
Step 1
Locking a cell phone for an operator is designed to prevent the use of the phone on a network other than the original one. Most often, you can encounter it when buying a phone abroad. In this case, you will need to contact the operator under which the blocking was carried out. Provide your phone's IMEI number, as well as your details that were provided when purchasing a mobile phone. If you bought a hand-held phone, then you will need to contact the original owner to find out this data. Request an unlock code. Enter it when you turn on the phone with a "foreign" SIM card, thus unlocking your mobile.
Step 2
The second type of blocking that you may encounter is blocking the phone itself. Nokia mobiles provide protection in case of loss or theft of the phone - this is a security code that must be entered when the phone is turned on. To reset it, you need a firmware reset code or a factory reset code. Of course, you can use codes that are publicly available on the network, but the most reliable option would be to request them from the company's official representative in your city or by contacting the contacts posted on the nokia.com website. Provide your phone's IMEI number as well as its serial number, and then request the above codes.
Step 3
SIM card blocking is used to protect such personal data of the subscriber, such as his mobile number, address book and messages contained in the memory of the SIM card. When you turn on the phone, a PIN code is requested. If you have forgotten your PIN code and entered it incorrectly more than three times, then you can reset it using the pack code located on the plastic packaging of the SIM card. If this option is not possible, you will need to contact the representative office of your mobile operator to replace your SIM card. Provide your passport details, after which you will be provided with a new SIM card without changing your phone number.
