Sim Lock "Unknown Error" - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have just inserted a new sim card into my Z3C running Slimm 1.7, and it requested an unlock code. I used the following sequence to get some data -
1. Turn on the phone without sim card
2. Type *#*#7378423#*#*
3. Select Service info
4. Select SimLock
But all the entries say "Unknown error"
What can I do?

I've tried everything to Unlock my phone

I've tried the unlock listed in the forum, but I can't get it to tell me my unlock password. Can anybody help me? And if needed, my IMEI # is **Mod Edit - Deleted for security reasons**
Using the apple standard line. "there's a app for that" check on market. Sgs unlocker or something like that
Sent from my GT-I9000
Yes I did download it, but it says "Sorry no codes found File not found: Do you have a Samsung Galaxy S?"
I don't understand why it can't find the unlock codes. Do you have any other ideas?
I have had exactly the same problem with my phone. However, I did install Froyo over Kies yesterday before I tried the unlock.

I had my troubles unlocking it for the 1st time. This is what I did:
1. Make sure USB debugging is enabled (Settings->Applications->Development->USB Debugging)
2. Download Generate Unlock Windows.zip (dont download anything else)
3. Extract the file onto PC
4. hook up the galaxy to your PC
5. Run the unlock code generator (if that doesnt work, unmount the SD card then try again)
6. Once you have your unlock code, put in your SIM and punch in that code.

I'm rooted with Busybox and in EFS folder I don't have "nv_data.bin"
should I try on stock :
make sure no sim card inside the phone yet, if there is, just take it out

there won't be any confirmation just reboot your phone, put your sim back in, wait for about 10-30 seconds for your phone to pick up the network and kabaaam it is unlocked, the timing is important btw

Because the OP didn't post too many details, most people couldn't perform all the operations through to the end...
Here goes:
Dial *#197328640#, it will take you to the service menu
Choose UMTS, or, if UMTS is missing, choose [1]Debug Screen directly
Choose [8] Phone Control
Choose [6] Network Lock
You will see "Not Active", you need to press the Settings/Options soft button (button on the left), and you will get a list of options
From the list choose the third [3] line, and enter the following text: SHA256 OFF
After 10-20 seconds you will see a returned value, I had 6
I saw most people stopped at step 5 above, before getting this far because they haven't pressed the left Options button to enable them to enter SHA256 OFF command.
Unfortunately, I couldn't figure where to enter the NW lock NV Data INITIALLIZ text... but maybe someone else can now pick it from here.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and then:
I typed the "NW Local NV Data INITIALIZE" exactly the way I typed your "SHA256 OFF". After that, I waited a minute and rebooted phone.
So once again: do the SHA256 OFF and then instead of SHA256 OFF, type "NW Local NV Data INITIALIZE", wait a minute and reboot.
See linked post to thank people who worked this out.

[GUIDE]Fix IMEI, No SIM Card Inserted.

I recently found a way to fix missing imei, sim card related issues.
My problem was the dual sim. I'd insert a sim in sim 1 and sim 2, sim 2 would have no service.
I don't know if this works in other MI variants, it worked on my 2014812.​Requirements​QFIL tool flash tool

I will not be held sh!t if your device gets bricked.​STEPS​Put your phone in diag mode. Turn on usb debugging in developer options in custom roms, power off the phone, press and hold vol up and plug in your usb cable.
MIUI ROM users, dial *#*#717717#*#* or*#*#13491#*#*. if they don't work then search online
Open QFIL, make sure build type on META BUILD. Plug in your phone while in diag mode and click select port, it will show up.
Click tools and click QCN backup and restore.
Click on browse, find the file wherever you saved it, click on Restore QCN and let itflash.
Reboot device and everything will be fixed.
i will attach the file i used for the baseband.
And i've attached the link i used to download.​LINKS​
