Galaxy S4 Carrier Unlock won't doesn't prompt for SIM unlock code

[Anonymous]

Hiya,

I have a Galaxy S4 and was emailed my unlock code to allow me to put any network SIM into the device. I read that if I put a locked SIM into the device it will prompt me for the code however I have tried my wife's EE SIM into the device but I don't get prompted. In  fact it just reports that no SIM is present.

Can anyone advise me please? I have searched everywhere but found nothing.

Cheers,

The Reverend.

You should be able to download the O2 update now, but equally as easy to put the unbranded Samsung ROM on the phone - your choice.....

Wow! I don't know what power you have but I checked last night for the update and there was nothing. I read your message and BANG! Its there and now downloading!

I will go with this and see how it goes.

Thanks everyone for your help.
