How to verify an unlocked SIM?
T-mobile finally sent me my SIM unlock instructions.
I'm supposed to dial ##782# from the dial screen and hit "call" and it's supposed to bring up a text box where I enter a long string of numbers. At least that's what it's supposed to do.
However, when I hit "call" it just closes the dialer and brings me back to the "contacts" screen O.o
How do I know my phone is unlocked? I'll be traveling over seas this summer and would really like to get this taken care of beforehand.
Phone is Lumia 810
Version 1.7.0.173
Accessories agent 1.0.5.2
Feedback to Nokia 2.2.0.9
Nokia First Use Experience 1.3.0.0
SmsVCardReceiver 1.0.0.8
Warranty Registration 1.1.0.4
SIM Unlock 1.0.0.5
Solved!

It should be 8 numbers long and if you insert SIM from network other than T-Mobile/Orange/EE you should get a screen to enter it together with the notification of number of attempts remaining (maximum of 10).
You should key in ##782# without SIM then hit call and if device is unlocked you will get screen with "Your device is already unlocked".
I unfortunately don't have any other SIMs around that I can try.
But when I dial ##782# when my SIM is removed, I get a message saying that my SIM is either removed or invalid and my only option is to make an emergency call... :/

How Many Versions of Unlock/Sim-free iPhone 3g?
I'm getting confused on the various Unlocked versions of iPhone 3G sold throughout the world especially in countries like Hong Kong, NZ, Italy, Singapore etc.
Some said its Factory Unlocked from Apple but some need to be unlock by the Telco. Some said it need to Sync with iTunes Store for the first time... etc...etc..
Can someone help to clarify?
Thanks.Certain Wireless carriers will sell them Unlocked.
The price for an unlocked is pretty high.
They are usually sold as unlocked already via the Wireless carrier. Not Apple.
The only one I knew for sure was T-Mobile Germany way back. But never kept up on all the companies and how they sold them so my info is outdated. Sounds like you know more. -

Hello! The question is this. In London, took the Iphone 5 as sim free, flew to Moscow put Simcoe, and he writes me that is locked to the operator O2. Can anyone encountered this problem? What to do? How to remove the Unlock?
<Edited by Host>Look at your receipt. Does it say unlocked? It is possible to purchase both locked "sim free" and unlocked iPhones from Apple.
ONLY the carrier an iPhone is locked to can legitimately unlock it.
IF your receipt says that it was supposed to be unlocked, and it is not, call AppleCare. They should be able to straighten it out. -

how can i fix "the sim card inserted in this iphone does not appear to be supported " after restoring a factory unlocked iphone 4
The term "factory unlocked" has no meaning. Your phone was not legitimately unlocked. Contact the carrier it is locked to and find out if you can get it unlocked.

SIM cards are not locked, unless you have a lock put on it from the carrier. Maybe you are referring to unlocking the phone to use a different carrier? Please explain better.

How do i get my sim to work with this phone?
I just bought a used iphone, when i put my sim card in, it says it is lock. I have done this before and been able to use instantly, but this time it wont come on. HOw do i get my sim to work with this phone?
If your iPhone was unlocked and has relocked after an update to iOS, then the iPhone was hacked to unlock it and has now been locked back to the original carrier. You'll need to contact the carrier to whom the iPhone is locked and request unlocking. They may refuse to do so since you're not the person with whom they had the contract.

If the phone is locked to a carrier then you will need the carrier to unlock it And only the carrier can do that.

How can I get a sim card for Japan and will it work with my locked Iphone 6
You cannot use a SIM card on a carrier locaked phone, other than a sim from the carrier the phone is locked to. You must first get the carrier it is locked to, to unlock your phone. Apple does not unlock phones.
