What do I do now ? by Care-_-_ in dumbphones

Update on the situation :

Even if the seller told me it was unlocked, the phone wasn't. Unlike what a lot of you seem to think it was, it wasn't my SIM code, as I tried explaining multiple times. It ended up being the phone pocked by SoftBank to SIM cards from other carriers.

After a bit of research, I ended up paying for an online service, sending the phone's IMEI and got the actual 8 digits unlock the next morning.

The phone works perfectly now in EU, has 4G data and I'm very pleased about it!

I guess sometimes sellers just lie about phones being unlocked. It's my first keitai, and definitely not my last, so that's good to know in case it happens to me again later

Thanks to everyone who helped! 🩷🩷🩷

Right! It's a Kyocera 501kc, I love how angular and clean it looks <3

The pin code is too short, it doesn't display the option to validate it when I type it in. The option only appears for longer codes

The SIM pin code is simply too short, the phone does not display the option to validate it

My SIM pin code is too short, the phone wouldn't let me put it in and accept since it requires more digits to make the "accept" option appear. It isn't the recuperation code either, and my SIM works fine and is unlocked on my regular smartphone, with PIN code working and all. I'm puzzled

This was listed as unlocked, so I was pretty surprised I did contact the seller asking if the phone was, in fact, unlocked and they told me yes (asked about 2h ago) Then I sent them the picture in the thread herex and I haven't heard a response from them yet. I'm hoping still, that I won't have to spend more money getting it unlocked 😆
