Mobile Shop

We are living in times where mobile phones are as important as limbs. People are terrified of losing their mobiles, and their hearts stop if they are unable to access their phones. One of the common mobile phone issues faced by most people is that they get locked out of their phones and need the help of a Bedford phone repair service provider to get them out of the situation. Another common problem is getting a phone network locked due to the policy of a carrier.

The Reasons

There are primarily two reasons why people get locked out of their phones.

Locked Out of a Phone

The first is that they forget their mobile phone password or PIN. The second is usually due to a software glitch in which even if a person types in the right password or PIN, he or she still can’t access their phone.

Locked Out of the Phone Network

The third is when the SIM provider locks a person’s phone network according to the contract. All of them are quite complicated scenarios and might need a person to seek phone unlocking services.

The Solutions

Before you head to a shop offering mobile phone repair in Bedford, you can try some simple solutions to unlock your phone. They are mentioned right here.

Phone Locked

  • If you have an Android device, you can use your Google account to unlock your phone. Similarly, iTunes can be used to unlock iPhones.
  • The second option available to you, if and only if you have all the data backed up is to restore factory settings and remove the password. This option will delete everything on your device, so you better be careful with it.
  • Use apps and software that are designed for this purpose. But make sure you read the reviews first as there are many fake/scam-oriented apps/software that cheat customers.

Phone Network Locked

  • If you have been locked out of your network because of a mistake or because you bought a second-hand phone, you can contact the carrier and see whether they can help you by using the SIM Unlock policy.
  • If you have purchased a second-hand phone and you don't know the locking network, you might need to go for an IMEI check.
  • Remember that carriers only provide phone network unlocking assistance if your name is in good standing and the contract has expired.
  • Do not trust the websites that offer unlock codes as they might try to steal your data or fool you by unlocking the phone for a while and taking money from you. Often, after you pay them, the phone network might get locked again.
