The PUK(phone unlocking key) sometimes called the subsidy code isn't something you can set or change. Its derived from the meid number found on the sticker under your battery. You need to dial 611 and ask customer support for your PUK code. First double check that your sim card is in properly because incompatable sim cards are usually what cause phones to require the PUK code to be entered.
If you agree that the answer I provided is correct please remember to "accept" and/or mark it as "helpful" so I know I'm doing a good job. Thank you, I would really appreciate it.
