Virgin use two locks; one locks it to 23430 T-Mobile and the second lock ensures only a Virgin SIM can work in the handset!Comment

Samsung G 600 Unlock
I have tried the bit below and get as far as now enter #7465625 etc, but I get "wrong password when I enter #7465625*638*00000000#, previously on Virgin now trying to use T mobile sim, or maybe Vodafone if that does not work. Are there different codes for each provider? #
Any help gratefully received. Itis obviously lockd to Virgin, so is there any way of getting full unlock remotely? Think Jim Mahoney seems to know the reason but can I get past this?
Insert wrong simcard half way in, power on the phone.
With display showing insert sim,
fully insert the sim and enter EP2 full reset code *2767*3855#
Wait for 1 minute after phone reboots!
Phone should now be working with the wrong sim.
Now enter *7465625*638*00000000*00000000# Network locks personelized
Now enter #7465625*638*00000000# Network lock deactivated
Enter *#7465625# and see all locks are deactivated
No Imei damage, no clip needed !Last edited by grizzly61bear; 27 December, 2010, 15:31.Comment

i have unlocked my samsung g600 using the correct procedures mentioned in this forum. all the locks have been deactivated apart from the SP Lock. the phone works fine until i switch off and on m then it asks for sp lock. any ideas as i only have 5 attempts left.
Many thanks in advance

If the phone is turned off the process you followed to unlock it needs to be done again.
As I said earlier in the thread, take it to a shop for a permanent unlock.Canker

Warning - and SAFE UNLOCK for G600
I picked the following up from an eBay review - I hope it will be useful to somebody AND PLEASE HEED THE WARNING ABOUT #*7337#
FREE SAMSUNG G600 UNLOCKING CODE DO NOT USE #*7337#
============================================
There are quite a few ebayers selling Samsung G600 unlock codes DO NOT BUY THEM, 99% of them are selling this code: #*7337#
THIS DAMAGES YOUR SAMSUNG G600 AND DOES NOT UNLOCK YOUR PHONE.
In fact it makes the IMEI number of your phone 000000000000000 This means that your phone WILL not work as all the networks have BARRED this number.
To unlock your Samsung G600 use the below codes, we have used this code for months in our shop and service centre and it WORKS and does not damage it:
Insert wrong simcard half way in, power on the phone.
With display showing insert sim,
fully insert the sim and enter EP2 full reset code *2767*3855#
Wait for 1 minute after phone reboots!
Phone should now be working with the wrong sim.
Now enter *7465625*638*00000000*00000000# Network locks personelized
Now enter #7465625*638*00000000# Network lock deactivated
Enter *#7465625# and see all locks are deactivated
No Imei damage, no clip needed !
[No intention to offend anybody who listed in good faith the #*7337# Code in previous mails]
All the very best Gazza!

Hi I've done this about 10 times now and my phone is still saying limited serviceComment
-
its just not worth it, best bet on any samsung is via real unlock code and just insert incorrect sim. or a hardware unlock.
with both of these methods there is not going to be any issues. and who needs phone freeze. unlock codes come with master code.
personally i prefer to unlock via hardware just a couple of mins and its done, but i do do a lot of unlock codes for remote unlocking when handset not present.Comment

Limited service could mean the imei has been changes to all zeros.
If that's the case, it has to be taken to a shop for an imei rebuildCanker
