Samsung F480i Phone Freeze
upperdrag
Hello guys! Haven't been on CodenStuff for a while now... Sorry, i was real busy this year.

However... I've got an error... My phone, which is an Samsung F480i Got frozen, i couldn't start it up, it will say, " SIM unavailable. Contact your service provider " Just yesterday i've been playing around with the security functions and when i click on the "PIN code" it asks for me pin code and i've forgotten what was it. Now i keep getting this error everytime i start it up. I've tried googling but i cannot find a solution to this issue...

Greatly appreciated if you helped :D

this happened with my older sister. you incorrectly entered the code so many times it disables ur sim card. u have to ask the service provider ppl to renew it.
This is a signature.

Hmm... My service provider is not SP... I heard that you could enter some unlock codes to unlock the phone, is it true?
