Dear Technology

I have a 10 year old dumb phone (keypad phone).

Has anyone unlocked their dumb phone ?

If so, could you tell me how you did it please ?

Yours sincerely ROMMMELLL

once I unlocked a Samsung. problem was that the code I've found had a side effect zeroing out the IMEI of the device. tho, it worked, but acted strangely sometimes

Dear K

Thanks for your reply.

Do you remember the model ?

How exactly did you unlock it please ?

Yours sincerely

I'm really sorry, dude, but it was like 15 years ago... I don't remember the model.

but it wasn't hard to find those codes back then IIRC, a quick google search or two
