If your Motorola C168i phone is asking for a lock code when you insert a Bangladeshi SIM card, it is likely that the phone is SIM locked. This means that the phone is locked to a specific carrier or network, and will only work with SIM cards from that carrier.

To unlock your phone, you will need to contact the carrier or network that the phone is currently locked to and request an unlock code. You may need to provide some information about your phone, such as its IMEI number, which can be found by dialing *#06# on the phone's keypad.

Once you have obtained the unlock code, follow these steps to unlock your Motorola C168i phone:

  1. Insert a non-carrier SIM card into the phone.
  2. Power on the phone and enter the unlock code when prompted.
  3. The phone should now be unlocked and able to be used with any compatible SIM card.
