Non Android Phones


On some non-android models you can simply insert a non accepted SIM card and let the phone prompt you to enter the unlocking code. ( A SIM it's not locked to )


However, with many non-android phones you may need to check which lock(s) are active on the handset first. This is so you know which code to enter to unlock it.


How To Check Which Lock Needs Unlocking On Your Samsung Phone:


Turn on your phone without a sim inserted

Type * # 7 4 6 5 6 2 5 # this will display which lock is active

(An easier way to remember this is * # S I M L O C K # )

Doing this will display a screen similar to the example below, ON means that particular lock is locked, OFF means it's not locked :


Network Lock [ON]

Network Subset Lock [OFF]

SP Lock [ON]

CP Lock [OFF]

If only the Network lock is displayed saying ON then you will only need to use the NCK code with the instructions below.


If you see the Subset lock value as ON then you will need the SCK code and if you see the SP lock value as ON you will need the SPCK code.




How to enter specific unlock codes


Once you know which lock(s) is active, you can now enter the specific code for it, as follows:


If your phone says the NET lock is ON then you need to do this without a SIM inserted: # 7 4 6 5 6 2 5 * 6 3 8 * NCKCODE #


If your phone says the SP lock is ON then you need to do this without a SIM inserted: # 7 4 6 5 6 2 5 * 7 7 * SPCKCODE #


If your phone says the Subset lock is ON then you need to do this without a SIM inserted: # 7 4 6 5 6 2 5 * 7 8 2 * SCKCODE #

Once all locks are OFF, your phone is unlocked.
