Your price is to high, and you are offering a service that by today, you can find dozens of places where they offer the same and cheapest. I hope you reconsider this and get some public.05-30-12 07:32 AMLike 0

For instance, some provide a money back guarantee and offer customer support. Other services may not even include the instructions you need to enter the code.
Just bear that in mind when your picking which service to use and what is more important to you.07-26-12 04:40 AMLike 0 - I'm still waiting on my unlock code, the page still says, "calculating unlock code" after six hours, I've made the payment and everything. I've sent you guys two emails so far, no response. How long will this take? not to mention the courtesy to respond in the meantime, whilst I wait. Last time I used your website, I had the same problem. No response, no code for nearly 24 hours. Disappointing service!!!12-17-12 06:03 AMLike 0

1. Try using another sim card or try the sim card (that says invalid in your 9320) in another device to ensure it works to make sure it's not the sim card itself.
2. Ensure the frequency the carrier you are using works with the device you have!03-09-13 01:18 AMLike 0 -

If the "Service provider" is active - hold the [ALT] key and type MEP4
if the "Network" is active - hold the [ALT] key and type MEP2
I got all the way to this step where I can view the identity and associations screen but none are active...
SIM Disabled
Network Blocked
Network Subset Disabled
Service provider Disabled
Corporate Disabled
Now what do I do ?
Ok so i did it with out any sim card and the network is active, i placed in the code you gave me and it told me code error ??Last edited by Jason Fishburn; 07-23-13 at 02:08 PM.

Only the original carrier that had it blocked can unblock it. And often you will need the person who caused it to be blocked (again likely from not paying the bill) to get it unblocked.07-23-13 05:19 PMLike 0
