No sim works for my nokia lumia 520

My brother gave me an Nokia lumia 520, and i have tried off all of the sim cards and some ask for a sim card code or something similar im not sure now.
on others it says that its in gpm or gps mode im not sure what to do i don't know what to do.
i can use the phone but not call or text anyone
and im in the uk i tried (o2, 3, orange, lebara and some more) help please i don't know what's the customer service line for my problem even. And any idea how much it would cost to unlock it.

Hi Rudeboii2811,
Welcome to our community.
Only the network provider where the phone is locked with can unlock the phone. We suggest contacting them regarding this and the cost of it. 
Have a good one!

    Well if you got the Phone Pggray43 at a Local Corporate store in your Area)  you should be able to return it as long as you have all the contents.!  Phone, Charger and any other accessories that came with it the Box of Course.. As long as you have not went past the 14 Day return.. the store can go over what you used as in Air Time and Data..
    Now if you've went past the 14 Day return you be Liable to pay a E.T.F =  Early Termination Fee the fee for this is around $300 so hopefully you have not went past the 14 Day return window the Manager if Available is the one I would talk to tell them your on Social Security and you just can't afford a phone as this I'm sure they'll work with you to get something solved..
    Hope ya have Good Luck.! b33

  • Nokia Lumia 520 - manual settings for internet

    I have just got a Nokia Lumia 520. In the UK using Three everything worked well. I live in Spain and have swapped the SIM card for my Spanish Masmovil SIM - my deal includes 1GB of data.
    The Spanish instructions on www.masmovil.es show a Nokia Lumia with different screen options and I cannot find "configuration" so I can set up the APN for Masmovil. 
    Help?

    This is not a reply but additional information. 
    The link to the masmovil website - manual configuration is http://masmovil.es/en/configuring-devices/
    Point 2 says choose "configuracion" which is obviously "settings" and I can follow through to step 4 when the display on the website says "click on ADD APN" also shown in Spanish as "agregar APN"  however all that is shown on my Nokia below "Network Selection" which is set to automatic, is SIM Applications. 
    If I click on that I just get the "recargar" or "recharge" option ... which is not APN. I am on a contract so there is no requirement for Recharge anyway, 
    Confused?  Well I am too ....

  • Nokia Lumia 520 in Moldova

    I want to buy a Nokia Lumia 520 here in the UK to give to someone living in Moldova, next to Romania.  Is there any reason the person cannot use it in Moldova, in the same way as she can in the UK, where it was bought?  I know that the mobile phone warranty does not cover Moldova, outside of the EU.  Thanks.

    Hey, Apart from the warranty I would like to provide you with this information which I have found on internet for you.
    See every mobile device works on some frequency bands and that need to be present in mobile to work in a particular region , it may support one or more than one band. As per Nokia UK website Lumia 520 supports 
    WCDMA network: 900 MHz, 2100 MHz (this is 3G frequency)
    GSM network: 850 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, 1900 MHz (this is 2G frequency)
    1. Now UK frequency bands where you live are:
    2G capabilities GSM 900, GSM 1800
    3G capabilities UMTS 900, UMTS 2100
    4G capabilities LTE 800, LTE 1800, LTE 2600
    So Lumia 520 in your region support 2G and 3G
    2. Now Mandova frequency bands where the mobile device will be operational:
    2G capabilities GSM 900
    3G capabilities UMTS 2100
    4G capabilities LTE 2600
    So Lumia 520 of UK should work atleast for 2G at GSM 900 frequency and 3G at UMTS 2100.
    Hope you were looking for this kind of reply.Any further questions ping me up.
    -Thank you

  • No WhatsApp in Nokia Lumia 520

    Why there is no WhatsApp in Nokia Lumia 520 ! Not in Windows Store for Nokia Lumia 520. Seven days back it was there.

    Welcome to Nokia Discussions, sanjaygoodearth.
    According to Nokia Care: "The WhatsApp app has been temporarily removed from the Windows Phone Store due to a recently discovered issue with how notifications are handled on Windows Phone 8.0 Update 3 (Lumia Black on Nokia Lumia phones). We are in the process of working with WhatsApp to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

  • Nokia Lumia 520 screen cracked

    I love my Nokia Lumia 520 but very disappointed with the thin glass on the screen. I fell over on the path and had my phone in my hand therefore when I fell over the phone screen cracked and now the touch will not work but the LCD is fine, the screen still lights up. I'm on waiting for a new screen so I can replace it myself but like I said seriously disappointed! I got this phone in June for my birthday and then one mistake it just cracked.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi, josphatchoge13. To verify, those issues occured right after receiving your phone from the Nokia Care Point, is that correct? If so, did you try informing the technicians about it? By the way, are you also having issues with your SMS, MMS, mobile data connection, and voicemail? About not playing any sound, this happens regardless of what task you're doing on the phone which requires sound, right? If you have tried any troubleshooting steps, can you tell us what are they? We look forward to your reply. By the way, we're glad to see you in the forum again. 

  • New nokia lumia 520

    my new nokia lumia 520 hangs. 
    its been only 20 days i brought my new lumia 520.
    Case : I just completed call. the screen got blacked out. we can still get incoming calls.
    we have the option to switch off. when it asks to slide down. it never happens. not able to slide it down.
    Solution - i removed battery and replaced. (This is very bad solution but i had no other option)
    tried - done power off and also volume down button with power off. it dint work.
    So disappointed!!

    hi mate, as a precursor to taking your phone to nokia care, you can check that you have the latest firmware updates for your device, and that you are up to date with the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store. also try performing a soft and then a hard reset if that doesn't work.

  • Nokia Lumia 520 offline maps can not be downloaded...

    Hello,
    I had downloaded offline maps earlier on my Nokia Lumia 520 and they worked very well. But after resetting my phone to original setings (which deleted all the previously downloaded map), I can no more use them. When I try to download offline maps, it gets stuck on 10% or something like that and then says "We can't reach maps library at the moment. Make sure flight mode is turned off and check your and mobile data or WiFi connection, then try again.".
    Tring to resolve this, I had already done following things-
    1. Again reset the phone
    2. Soft reset the phone
    3. Updated the HERE MAPS and HERE DRIVE
    4. Tried downloading it from settings > Applications > maps > download maps
    5. And lastly I was using WiFi for downloading and my Flight mode was off
    I need this feature working on my phone at the earliest.
    Please suggest a solution for this asap, NOKIA!!!
    Thank you.

    Hi, kanishkk. Glad to hear that you're now able to download your map data. Based on the information presented, the issue can be on your connection. If the same issue occurs, try to download using your cellular data to further isolate the issue.
    Feel free to post your concerns and suggestions on the most appropriate board.

  • Can not turn on Nokia Lumia 520 after Microsoft up...

    Hi, I've got Nokia Lumia 520 with Windows Phone 8
    before yesterday Microsoft update appeared on display and wanted me to instal. So I clicked on "instal" button and after that there was "restarting..." on the display for a while and phone went off. Since that I can't turn on my phone. I tried keep it on charger for a long time, I tried take off battery for a long time, I tried to hold all buttons combinations, but my phone is still dead. Do you have some advises or there is only one option to send that to Nokia for service?
    Thank you for answers
    Honza 

    First try rebooting by ressing and holding the vol down + power button for around 10 seconds. If it works, the phone should vibrate and restart. If this does not work you could try hard resetting, instructions as per link below. Faiuling that, you will need to get it to your local Nokia Care Point.
