If you put another simcard into your Nokia N8 phone and it does not allow you make calls with it, then your Nokia N8 is simlocked. If your N8 phone is "simlocked" when you put an alternative network simcard in your phone it could show "enter correct sim", "enter subsidy password", "wrong sim", "incorrect sim" or similar. If you want to use your N8 phone with another simcard then you will need to unlock your phone. There are some small considerations you need to make sure before you start such as simcard compatibility and making sure that your phone is definately "locked" not "blocked" there is a distinct difference!
Is your Nokia N8 Locked or Blocked?
A locked Nokia N8 means that your Nokia N8 phone ONLY accepts simcard from the network it was purchased with. This is easy to solve, we can supply codes that can fully "unlock" your Nokia N8 phone to all networks. This means that your Nokia N8 phone can then be used on ANY chosen network in any compatible country, WORLDWIDE. Alternatively a Blocked phone is a phone that has been reported lost or stolen, and has been blocked by the network for use. These phones are unusable and there is no way around this. Unblocking a phone is ILLEGAL and we offer no service for this.
Is it Legal to buy Unlocked Nokia N8
Unlocking a mobile phone to allow it to use any sim is 100% legal, it is law that the networks allow you to be able to get your phone unlocked so that you have choice in choosing the network you wish to use. However Unblocking a phone is a completely ILLEGAL practice and we do not offer such a service for this. You can learn more about the differences here on our blocked or barred pages
