Dear A
Thanks for your reply. That is very helpful.
I didn't realize that about the UK.
If you were me, and you had a Samsung GT-E3210 dumb phone (keypad phone) made about 2013, that would only accept your current SIM card (the 2nd SIM card you've used with this phone) how would you go about unlocking it please ?

Thanks H.
I appreciate that it has been a long time.
If I understand correctly, your phone was locked to Vodafone Germany from the very start. Then, some time later you registered your phone on a website, and this action alone freed your phone.
One question : whose website did you register your phone on ?
eg. Phone maker ? Phone seller ? Provider of the SIM card ? other ?

Dear S
I think I have 2 problems.
I don't know who put the lock there - phone maker ? phone seller ? provider of 1st SIM card ? provider of 2nd SIM card ? other ? I just know that ONLY my current SIM card (the 2nd) works in my phone. No other SIM card will work in it.
I don't know the correct procedure to remove the lock without bricking the phone. Or, how to unbrick it, if I do.
Perhaps I am being too cautious, but some of what I have seen online seems a little dubious, and I'm not sure I can trust myself to distinguish between good info and bad.
You are one of the few who have actually unlocked a dumb phone in real time.
Could I be so bold as to ask if you would be willing to give some of your time to find a good tutorial with unlock codes for a Samsung GT-E3210 dumb phone made about 2013 ?

Did you ever go ahead and unlock a dumb phone when you were working in the store ?

Dear A
Thanks for your reply. That is very helpful.
I am new to the terminology.
Does 'original provider' refer to the phone maker, or the phone seller, or the provider of the first SIM card, or someone else ?
If the phone was NOT locked by the original provider, how else could it be locked ?
And how would you decide what sort of lock you were dealing with ?
Yours sincerely
