You are allowed to enter the unlock code 10 times.  After the 10th failed attempts, the phone will be permanently(hard) locked.  Now, you need to get an unfreeze code or MCK code from your previous carrier to unfreeze it.  If your previous carrier cannot or will not help you, you need to contact Samsung Canada to get MCK code.  Good luck.

@Retired usually better to start your own thread. You need to contact the orriginal provider to see what can be done if anything.  There is nothing that can be done by  public mobile.

 

What phone are you trying to unlock?
