How to enter unlock codes in Samsung models
Understanding Your Samsung Unlock Codes:
The unlock codes emailed to you will look something like this example:
NETWORK also known as NCK =12345678
SERVICE PROVIDER also known as SPCK=12345678
SUBPROVIDER also known as SCK=12345678
DEFREEZE also known as MCK or FREEZE =12345678
REMEMBER: Most networks only lock their Samsung handsets with the NETWORK lock enabled.
Android Models Default Method ( Works on most new models )
Insert a non accepted SIM card ( your new one )
Switch the phone on
The phone will ask you to enter ‘unlocking code’ ( or something similar )
Enter the NCK code provided
The phone should now be unlocked
How To Check Which Lock Needs Unlocking On Your Samsung Phone
Turn on your phone without a sim inserted
Key in *#7465625# this will display which lock is active
(An easier way to remember this is *#SIMLOCK#)
Doing this will display a screen similar to the example below, ON means that particular lock is locked, off means it is not locked.: Network Lock [ON]
Network Subset Lock [OFF]
SP Lock [ON]
CP Lock [OFF]
If only the Network lock is displayed saying ON then you will only need to use the NCK code with the instructions below. If you see the Subset lock value as ON then you will need the SCK code and if you see the SP lock value as ON you will need the SPCK code.
How to enter specific unlock codes
Once you know which lock(s) is active, you can now enter the specific code for it.
If your phone says the NET lock is ON then you need to do this without a sim inserted:
#7465625*638*NCKCODE#
or #SIMLOCK*NET*NCKCODE#
If your phone says the SP lock is ON then you need to do this without a sim inserted:
#7465625*77*SPCKCODE#
or #SIMLOCK*SP*SPCKCODE#
If your phone says the Subset lock is ON then you need to do this without a sim inserted:
#7465625*782*SCKCODE#
or #SIMLOCK*SUB*SCKCODE#
Once all locks are off your phone is unlocked.
Alternatively, you can simply put the sim in that the phone won't yet accept and enter the required code directly into the phone.
Important Help For Galaxy S, Galaxy SL, Galaxy S2, Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4, etc.
1 – Insert a sim that your phone will not yet accept
2 – It will ask for the code, enter it and unlock your phone
NOTE: if you get “network lock unsuccessful” it means that the handset is actually Phone Frozen (even though it doesn't display it, as these do not display Phone Freeze as other Samsung phones do)
SOLUTION: reboot phone with a sim it will not yet accept. Enter the DEFREEZE code (this will also state it was unsuccessful – this is normal) then Enter your NCK code and it will unlock your phone.
Phone Freeze Help (Other Models):
If your phone displays this message or similar when inserting an incorrect sim, you must do the following:
1. Power on phone with wrong sim inside so phone displays “Phone Freeze, SIM unavailable. Please contact service provider”
2. Now type DEFREEZE code that we supplied you and press OK (no digits will be seen on display when entering this code)
3. Now phone will ask you for Network Code, so enter NCK code and press OK.
4. If nothing happens when you enter NCK code, you will need to compose code like this: #7465625*638*NCKCODE#
5. Now your phone should be unlocked.
