Do not attempt entering any further unlock codes if you get this
message. You only get 5 attempts at getting the correct unlock code
and after that you will no longer be able to unlock your phone using
unlock codes. Check and email us the information below;
1. IMEI Number: (Type *#06# and make sure the IMEI given matches the one
on the sticker in the battery compartment)

only accepts sim card from)

we originally sent you with the unlock code(s)
This information is critical in order for us to generate the correct
unlock code. Email us this info so that we can regenerate your unlock
code.
Error - "cannot undo restriction / not
allowed"
This message means that you have used up your 5 attempts that you get
to enter the correct unlock code. You phone can no longer be unlocked
using unlock codes. The only way you will now be able to unlock you phone
is by purchasing unlocking hardware and/or software to physical unlock
your phone using an unlock data cable.
Note: You may have not used up the 2 attempts, you may have acquired the
phone will less attempts left as the previous owner had already tried
unlock codes. Unfortunately, there is no way of resetting the 5 attempts
counter on the phone.
