Dear Technology

I have a 10 year old dumb phone (keypad phone).

Has anyone unlocked their dumb phone ?

If so, could you tell me how you did it please ?

Yours sincerely ROMMMELLL

    Thanks S.

    I understand.

    In my case, I got the phone new in one country, where I used the 1st SIM card I put into it. I wasn’t aware of any requirement to use any particular SIM card, or to use it for any particular time.

    Some time later I was in another country. I wanted to put my 2nd SIM card in, but the phone wouldn’t accept it.

    I took it to a phone shop and had it unlocked.

    I have been using this 2nd SIM card for years. This SIM card is in no way connected to the phone seller or phone maker, and it is from a different country.

    BUT now I find that this 2nd SIM card is the ONLY SIM card the phone will accept.

    How do you interpret this data ?

    How would this lock be activated on an unlocked phone ?

    Yours sincerely ROMMMELLL
