Just insert any sim card from any other network or carrier. If it doesn't work or you get an error then it is locked. Also fyi try not to post IMEI info. Online thanks.

Open the Dialer App

Then press *#*#7378423#*#*

Then click "Service Info" and press "SIM Lock"

If all the 5 words,ending with "0" means your phone is not carier locked.

Press Back and then press "Configuration"

Under "Rooting Status"

If its "Bootloader unlock allowed : Yes" ,means you have a locked bootloader.

If its "Bootloader unlocked : Yes",means you have an UNlocked bootloader and you can install Custom ROMS(custom firmware)

That's normal, it means that you can unlock the bootloader if you choose to.

@flor3 Follow this

Open the Dialer App

Then press *#*#7378423#*#*

Then click "Service Info" and press "SIM Lock"

If you have this output

[x] Network Unlimited
[] Network subset 0
[] Service Provider 0
[] Corporate 0
[] SIM 0

this means you are worldwide unlocked to use with any carrier.

If any of those have "1" it means you are locked with some EU carrier

My xperia z3 compact is not accepting any sim network. I have followed this procedure and under sim lock all 5 words were ending with 0 and under "Rooting Status" there was "Bootloader unlock allowed : Yes"

. Could you please tell me is there any problem in the phone software or is my phone blocked by network?

@Wilmadear

your phone it's locked, you have to contact either the carrier or buy the code online, Sony doesn't have this codes.
