Sim Code Lock

I've just upgraded to the iphone 5 , done my sim code lock stay the same as the one connected to my iphone 4 or do I have to reset it??

Your sim code lock is from the cell service provider of the sim card. In that circumstance, it will remain the same. Note that there are several lock codes - passcode lock which you will find under settings, general which allows you to set a passcode lock so that only you can get into the phone by entering a series of digits (or word).  If you restored your data from your previous phone onto your new phone, then this code (I believe) travels with the restored data. If you have set up your phone as a "new iphone" then you will need to manually set this up. Please note that autolock settings will override passcode - i.e. if you set autolock to 5 minutes but press the power button to lock off the screen, you will find that if you tap the home button before the autolock time sequence has finished and swipe to open, you can open the phone without entering the passcode (which could be a security problem). (on iphone 5, iOS 6.1.2)

  • I no longer have a service provider and my SIM is locked. How do I obtain my PUK?

    I no longer have a service provider and my SIM is locked. How do I obtain my PUK?

    if you don't have a carrier then the sim card and punk code is irrelevant and you will not be able to use it
    the only purpose of the sim card is to tie the phone to the carrier, and the puk code is a security code for the sim card
    trow away the sim card and when you get a new carrier you will be given a new sim card by that carrier

  • HT1316 what is a puk code and how do i get a sim code for my ipad 1

    what is a PUK coade and how do i get a sim code for my ipad !? i was factory restoring my ipad and received a box asking for the puk and sim code? please help i am totally locked out.

    If you don't know the PIN or PUK, you'll need to contact your cell carrier for assistance and perhaps a replacement SIM.
    For the short term, if you remove the SIM you may then be able to get into your iPad, though I'm not certain. It's worth a try, though.
    Regards.

  • HT1937 I cannot use my IPad; it tells me my SIM is locked.  Please help

    I cannot use my IPAD; it says that the SIM is locked.
    Please help

    Enter the SIM unlock code.
    Remove the SIM, it's not required for the iPad to work.
    Replace the SIM with one that does not have a lock code on it.

  • I want to upgrade(iOS 8.1.1) iphone 4S. A code is asked. I entered my sim code... wrong. Which code do I have to use?

    I have an iphone 4S... and not enough space to make the upgrades.
    Getting started, using iTunes. My iphone asked my code. I gave in the sim code.. wrong. First wrong code... so I don't try anymore, because I'm afraid my iphone will not work anymore if I give 3 wrong codes...
    Can anybody tell me which code I have to use?

    What is the exact message you are getting when it asks for a code?

  • HT1414 my phone is asking for a PUK or sim code, where do i get it?

    How do you find your PUK?  or SIM code?

    If you forget your PUK and/or SIM code.... call your phone provider and tell them you forgot your codes..... Do take any chances of solving it yourself or otherwise, you will fired up the Sim Card.

  • How to turn off Pass Code lock

    I am using Google Apps.  I setup my iPhone 4s Mail account following these instructions, http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740.  As instructed I used the Microsoft Exchange account.  Later I set up a pass code and turned Pass Code lock ON.  Mail works perfectly, however I am not given the choice to turn Pass Code lock Off.  I do not believe Microsoft Exchange requires Pass Code Lock as I setup another user's iPhone 4s the same way, but never activated Pass Code Lock.  (On this phone I still have the option of setting up a Pass Code and turning it on.)
    I would like to be able to turn off Pass Code Lock.

    ผมใช้ Google Apps ฉันตั้งค่าของฉันบัญชีดังต่อไปนี้คำแนะนำเหล่านี้, iPhone 4s จดหมายhttp://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740 . ตามคำสั่งของฉันใช้บัญชี Microsoft Exchangeต่อมาผมตั้งค่ารหัสผ่านและหันผ่านรหัสล็อค ON จดหมายทำงานอย่างสมบูรณ์แบบ แต่ผมไม่ได้รับเลือกในการเปิดรหัสผ่านล็อคปิด ผมไม่เชื่อว่า Microsoft Exchange ต้องล็อครหัสผ่านที่ผมติดตั้ง iPhone 4s ที่เหมือนกันของผู้ใช้อื่น แต่ไม่เคยเปิดใช้งานผ่านล็อครหัส (ในโทรศัพท์นี้ผมยังมีตัวเลือกของการตั้งค่ารหัสผ่านและเปลี่ยนมันบน.)

  • I have entered the wrong numbers to put my phone in pass code lock.  However, I didn't set the autolock....how can I get the pass code lock reset?

    Your only choice is to place the phone in DFU mode (search Google for instructions) and restore as a new device.  You will lose all your data.

  • If you enter your password on the ipad too many times and your sim card locks, is there a way of recovery without replacing the sim card?

    That doesn't lock the SIM card, it just locks you out of the device. 
    If you forgot (or don't know) your passcode, restore the device from backup on the last computer it was synced with when the passcode was turned on... this will remove the passcode. If you do not have access to the last computer it was synced with, you will have to force it into recovery mode & restore as a new device.

  • HT201365 activation server is down and i cant do it through itunes because my sim is locked, i cant unlock it because i cant get to the screen that lets me enter my pin

    activation server is down and i cant do it through itunes because my sim is locked, i cant unlock it because i cant get to the screen that lets me enter my pin

    That is very particularly bizarre situation that as far as I know can only be overcome by borrowing someone else's unlocked sim.
