May I assume your inserting an activated alternative network sim card i.e. connects to mobile data etc.

 

If so which model of phone are you trying to unlock ?

 

Your right to be cautious to not hardlock the phone

Yes the tesco mobile sim & the o2 sim are both activated, the phone I am trying to unlock is a Samsung S7.

When iI put either sim in it does not ask for the NUC number but a PUK number, I got both of these & put them & same answer unlock not successful ?

Ignore the request for a Puk @stevenruck 

 

This has nothing to do with unlocking the phone. This has come up before in past posts similar to yours.

 

A Puk is only needed if a person has activated the security feature sim pin which stops a person inserting the sim card in another phone and has forgotten the 4 digit pin and entered it incorrectly too many times.

 

With some Samsung Galaxy phones what's needed is a mastercode also known as an unfreeze code as well as the Nuc.

 

Customer support on 191 or Live Chat can help you with this. Ask specifically for a mastercode / unfreeze code.

 

That and or the Vodafone Social Media Teams via Facebook and Twitter.
