hello,
due to my stupidity, I blocked the sim unlock counter (over three trials).
this is not the pin code, this is the code to unlock permanently the phone.
Now, how do I unlock please?
Puk code from provider?

Ooops - sorry, my mistake. I have No idea what you would need to do, you could start by contacting your provider or Sony if Google search doesn't have the answer. Good Luck.

so read the first post again. no hard feelings.
edit: don't want to be another smartass as some on this forum, sorry.. if I read it correctly it is code to unlock phone that is SIM LOCKED to a network and hard reset will not help in this case.
Yeah well maybe it's that one, it isn't very clear though.
Unlock phone
The sony unlock bootloader pages refer to the procedure of unlocking the phone, but they go on to say something along the lines of- if you don't get the code right you are permanently locked. Was that what you were attempting?
Same problem here
I want to reset the counter too but I don't know how. I have the code to unlocke my phone to ant network but I have no more attemps.. Is there any solution to that problem?
Afaik there exists an unblock code as well for such cases, you need to ask the provider of the unlock code for that second code and a tutorial how to enter it. However, most unlock code providers state in their howtos that most devices have 10 attempts to enter the sim unlock code before you get blocked and you should only use up to five, and make a video proof that the code does not work, then they will either provide the unblock code, help you with the procedure or refund your money if they can not help.

Hello everybody. This is my first post in this forum and first of all I want to thank everybody for the great work they do everyday.
I have a sony ericson xperia x8 locked with a network code. I want to unlock my phone and use it with any other sim. I've done several researches in internet, but i could't find any solution to my problem. I'm sure that this network lock has something to do with the software of the phone. I've unlocked the bootloader, flashed a costum room, but nothing happened.
I'm sure that someone in this forum is able to help me and other people that have the same problem to unlock our phones. I'm sure that this has something to do with the software of the phone. Is there any way to delete all the software of the phone and install everything again??
I want to thank everybody for the answers.

The network lock is at the bootloader. To unlock the phone you need to modify the bootloader. Do you know any tool that can modify the bootloader, or some other way to do it? Thanks.

I've already payed to unlock my xperia x8. Theydid the job for 10 euro. What they did was reload a new modified bootloader and that was it. It was done with usb cable and a software downloaded by the site that offered the unlocking. So the network lock has something to do with the bootloader. I just wanted to know if there is any way to modify the code of the bootloader and reload the new modified bootloader.
Anyway thanks to everybody for the answers , and I hope this post might help other people that have the same problem. Mabay it can be found a way to modify the bootloader and offer a free unlocking for the other users. Thanks again everyone.
Is there any way to find out what method was used to simunlock an x8 (without asking the guy who atualy did the deed, ofc)?
Sorry if this was allready asked, but couldnt find anything on this...
I dont think there is a way......may i know why do u want to know.....?

Well, if its unlocked via imei, Im safe to unlock the bootloader... at least thats as far as I could gather by all the info scattered around.
To help narrow down the possible unlock method used, I can add that whenever the phone is rebooted, and there is a sim from a different Service Provider than the "original" one, it asks for a network unlock code. By tapping "skip" the phone then boots up and works just fine with any other Service Provider's sim.
This leads me to believe the phone was unlocked by other means than IMEI. And hence, all hopes of unlocking the bootloader are obliterated.

2. Type *#*#7378423#*#*
3. Select Service info

The counter is blocked.

STOP! You have to backup your TA partition before unlocking your bootloader!!!
If you dont know much about programming your phone you probably shoudlnt do this.
Do some research before taking any steps from here

Hi,
I have a Sony Xperia SP and to perform all the procedures to unlock the Bootloader in the initial part that says if our machine can unlock the bootloader or not , mine says it is not allowed .
My questions are:
Why is this unlock on some devices is allowed and others not?
Even if the information that shows my device , it is not possible to unlock the bootloader , I wonder if there's another way to do it or even impossible to do ?

Your service provider doesn't want you to unlock your bootloader and there is no way of unlocking if it says not allowed.

By the way... do you now if its possible, someday, create the version 4.4 KitKat in *.ftf extension so I can install through the Flashtool?
In simple words no. But you can install cm11 on locked bootloaders. Just search for it in the development sections.
Hit thanks if helped.

I also have the bootloader status set to NO.At the moment,there is no way to make it say YES,unless you SIM unlock it(It must work,as in most cases it is the SIM lock which changes the status to NO).
Hi ,
My brother bought P7-L10 from Kuwait and it worked well using SIM card from there. But when he reached India and tried Indian SIM card , it's not detecting. Tried different Service Providers SIM card, but still it's not detecting. Please let me know whether upgrading the firmware will solve the issue or not. It's having Build No: P7-L10V100R001C00B126 . Please help me to fix the problem. I've tried factory reset, but it doesn't worked.

When you power on the phone, it is shown something else than Huawei (something like vodafone or orange)?
If so, the phone is locked on the respective network, and you must unlock it, like our collegue ranaji said.
If not, it is possible to be a cust problem. That means that your phone was made for a geaographic region, and it will not work properly with other networks than the ones on the specified region. If so, you must change your cust number.
First, you must see what your cust number is. For that, search on Settings, phone properties, the last line <Cust Number< and tell us what is it. Good luck!!!
The phone is a very good phone!!!

During power on, nothing else is showing other than Huawei. Then I think, as you said, it was made for a geographic region. Custom Version: CUSTC433D619.
I've done firmware update for the respective region, but it's of no use.
Please help to solve the problem.

As i told you you have to unlock it, the problem is not in update firmware.
you have 2 choices:
1/ contact the koweitien opérator to get your unlock code
2/ go to repair office to unlock it with phone boxes (if exist)

now you are in "ProjectMenu"
choose n°3 ( Network information Query )

if the phone is locked you will see " SIMLOCK_ACTIVE "
if not locked you see " SIMLOCK_DEACTIVE "
