AHMEDSALMAN — Sat, 11 Jan 2014 22:01:53 GMT

Is it normal to see sim card lock activated when the airplane mode is activated ? and if I deactivate it , will the sim card lock be disabled ? I don't remember my pin code and I did a factory data reset and it didn't solve the proplem .

Please any one help me , I'm sorry if my question is stupid
sorry for my poor English and thanks in advance .

If you forgot your pin there isn't anything you can do as you will have to contact your carrier/network

The sim lock should remain, you can try it but I doubt there will be any difference, just contact your network/carrier

Whatever its stored on your SIM card, to be honest now a days its a bit pointless to have a SIM lock, it will be better if you lock your phone Pin lock, password, pattern lock instead of the SIM card

Or you could use 2 passwords(SIM and phone),but the SIM can be easily removed.Phone lock can be also easily removed,too:smileytongue:

If you remove it from the phone,the SIM has it's lock still on.
