[Q] WM6.1 Simlock Brute force

---

Hello

I recently bought myself Samsung SCH-I770 phone which has Windows Mobile 6.1 operation system.

My problem is that it's network/sim locked. I cannot use it with my country SIM card.

Though, there's code entering option under "Phone->Settings->Security-SIM Lock". 6 digit code and it gives the answer "Lock code and Input code do not match." after I enter the WRONG code. I think it checks the code which is written somewhere on the memory of phone.

Now - my question is. Would it be possible to BRUTE FORCE the password using that option? 6 digit code (numbers) is only 1 million possibilities - shouldn't take THAT long for a program to process.


Thank you in advance,

PS: I have checked unlock softwares which are posted on this forum, but non seemed to be working.

Most phones lock permanently after 10-30 failed attempts to unlock. Some don't, so if you have good typing skills and memory, trying all combinations will only take you a "little while".

So critical. I think follow instructions of 'stepw'

Isn't there a risk that somebody might "try" to unlock the phone and it will be locked forever? How could one unlock the phone from being locked forever?

Like PUK code for SIM card, when SIM is locked by trying to enter PIN codes too many.
