I am living in Haiti and I made someone buy a Droid2 Global for me in USA. I have had the phone for 2 months but I never could operate it.  Any time I open it, it requires that I enter a SIM Network Unlock PIN that I have not.

 

I' d appreciate you help me get the SIM Network Unlock PIN for my Droid2 Global which IMEI is the following: {edited for privacy}.

 

Many thanks in advance

If the incorrect PIN code is entered too many times, a PIN Unlock Key must be obtained from Verizon Wireless at 908-559-4899 if you are outside of the United States and 800-922-0204 or *611(send) from your mobile number inside the United States..

 

The SIM PIN option is only available when the handset is in GSM / UMTS mode. Refer to Network Mode Setting for further assistance.

This is a customer to customer web site, so there is not much help we can offer. You may want to copy what you have and click on the, Contact Us button above in blue and follow the directions.

 

I think you may need to have the device for six months to get the code though, but I am not sure.

Call the number that was provided in the post above yours and request the unlock code.

Pretty much the only way we can advise you to unlock your phone to put in another carrier's sim card is to call VzW and request a sim unlock. They have a bunch of criteria you have to meet in order to be eligible for an unlock, one of which is that you have to be a current VzW subscriber and you can't have a past due balance. From the way this topic sounds, it sounds like you're not a VzW customer at all, just someone who wants to unlock a Droid 2 Global to use with a non-VzW sim card, in which case you'd have to find help outside official means.

Are you talking about the PUK code (when the PIN for the SIM has been wrong too many times)?  The OP is talking about network unlock, and is using a foreign SIM.   Global Services certainly wouldn't have the unlock code for a SIM that isn't theirs.

 

I have heard that if you do enter the incorrect network unlock code too many times, the phone becomes permanently locked (i..e cannot be unlocked even with a valid unlock code) but not everyone agrees that this is true for all phones.

 

 

Jax's post above really says it all, you will need to search the web for a service that will unlock this Motorola phone.  In doing so, you might find a number of threads that say the Global has to be activated in the US before an unlock code will work.  Others were able to unlock without this.
