My phone didn't ask for an unlock code when I inserted a new SIM. What should I do?

If your phone does not prompt for an unlock code upon inserting a new SIM card, follow these steps:   Connect your device to a Wi-Fi network. Turn off your phone and insert a SIM card from a different carrier than the original network. Turn your phone back on and try making a call to initiate the unlock process. For users with US networks such as T-mobile, you might find a 'Device Unlock' application pre-installed on your device. If so, open the app and select 'request unlock'.

How can I find my phone's IMEI number?

You can find it through any of the following ways:   Dialing a Code: Simply dial *#06# on your phone and your IMEI number will appear on the screen. Remember to note down only the first 15 digits, leaving out any dots. Phone Settings: Dive into your phone's settings. The exact path can vary depending on your phone model, but it's generally found under 'About Phone' or 'General Information'. Phone Box: Have a look at the original box your phone came in; the IMEI number is usually printed on the barcode sticker.   SIM Card Tray: In some phones, the IMEI number is printed on the SIM card tray. So, if the above methods don’t work, try pulling out your SIM card tray and check if it's there.   A friendly reminder to double-check the number to ensure it's accurate. Unfortunately, we can't offer refunds for services on incorrect IMEI numbers.
