I think my xperia s is simlocked. How can I check this and how can I unlock it?
Put another simcard in (different network)????
Or *#*#7378423#*#* in dial pad > Service Info > SIM Lock
thanks for the reply
I cant try another simcard unless i cut it but then it wont fit in my other phone anymore. Don't mind to cut if im sure the sim works.
I've tried *#*#7378423#*#* and gives all 0's at the sim lock page. Does this mean its simlocked or not?
if there is a 0 everywhere mean there is no simlock i think
go to configuration and see if the bootloader unlock allowed if yes happy boy if no then you wont be able to access the fastboot
i did have lot of problem with arc before
0 means its not locked. 5 on network means its locked
great thanks for the info, guess i'll be cutting the simcard then
It worked thanks all
i have same problem everthing 0 but still cant see my sim i try another sim but still same
and my bootloader : no

If it's not working with Sim with counter 0 means your Sim-pin counter is 0 & @ this moment no solution for that.

Hi,
I just bought a Sony Xperia X10 (orange phone). I am trying to get the phone to work on Vodafone Ireland.
I got the unlocking codes on a site. tried them the phone seemed to unlock.
When I power the device up it asks me to enter my pin as normal. Then I am propmted to enter a Network unlock pin. I have tried entering the Unlock code, my PIN, my unblock code. It keeps telling me that pin is wrong & for me to contact my network operator.
When using an orange SIM, phone works ok.
I presumed that the unlock code was wrong so I went to a shop to get the unlock code & they supplied me with code I got over the net.
Any one have this problem, or now to resolve it. I have all providers and repsonse are as follows:
Orange: You are not existing customer.... Cant help you
Vodafone Ireland: Contact orange or go to a shop to get it unlocked.
Internet site: Still awaiting reply
Any one got any ideas or solutions.
Thanks
what is the exact message that you get when you enter the unlocking code:
1- Wrong Code
Or
2- Sim Locked, Contact Opertor.
??!
If the phone tells you to contact the operator it means that the wrong unlock code was entered for more than 5 times... so maybe the guy you bought it from entered some unlock codes for fun?
The phone is now blocked and the right unlock code won't help you anymore... I have the same problem and as far as I know the only possibility is to go to the operator who locked the phone, in your case Orange. I'm sure they will help you, but they won't do it for free of course
same problem here but i buy from AT&T any unlocker avelable please help
Call att. I have never had a problem with them telling me the correct way to reset the phone for free and get the pulk code. I have read other posts that if you've had the phone for six months they will tell you the unlock code.

Hi all, I'm looking to see if my phone will be re-locked if I unlock the bootloader. I do not use the network from which I bought my phone, so my SIM will stop working if it re-locks...

I found this helpful post and tool, however, I have not seen a guide to what messages may come up with the tool. Mine says:
SEMC Simlock Certificate . What does that mean? I should say how/where I got my phone unlocked, I went to a phone unlocking/sales shop.
Thanks
The SE service menu says:
Network 3
Network subset 3
Service provider 3
Corporate 3
SIM 0
I went to this site to check whether if my phone is unlocked or locked and after entering the IMEI number, the SIMLOCK & WARRANTY check option is missing.
http://www.imei.info/
Is there other services or programs that can check this for me?
Of all the searches I had done, its for the iPhone only.
I REALLY need to check if my phone is unlocked or not and I do not have other SIM cards to swap in order for me to check this.

Hello my good fellows!
Basicly is there a chance to unlock sim card via some software tools? and here is some of the stuff I've arleady tried to do
- Phone is locked to operator T-Mobile and I have a Vip sim card so First thing it come into my mind is to try and flashing the frimware of the phone to Vip operator while deleting userdata, didn't do anything except removed the T-Mobile logo on the startup
- Bootloader is locked by phone, have thought about it but didnt make sence because of step 1
- Trowing it out of the window (still alive)
So if you Know a way to unlock or atleast reseting the counter because I've recieved a code and tried it but its pointless because of 0 attemptes
Any help would matter to me greatly and thank you in advance for your time.
EDIT : Forgot to mention the program that I used is called "Sony Mobile Flasher by Androxyde"
Hi I would like to remove the sim lock so I can use any provider with the phone, I have the Unlock code from EE but they say to type *#*#7378423#*#* then go to service info then sim lock and see if "Network " if it has a zero after it then you need to contact Sony GB Support to get the Counter reset I have done this and sony was no help so Can anyone help with how to reset the counter so I can input the Sim unlock code.
Android version 6.0.1
Many thanks

go to where the phone was bough originally, if it has X mark and a 0 the phone cannot be unlocked via code
Ok so that means I have to send it to sony for them to unlock it and remove the Hardlock. I did contact sony and they said I needed to send it to them But I have been told the same thing in the past and this excellent Forum has always helped.
if you bough it directly to sony yes, but might be weird they carrier sim locked the phone, only carriers do simlock and they should remove that lock for free or a small fee if you paid full price for it already
