What is the network unlock app used for?

Anyone have any idea what this network unlock app is used for?

Hi @Nekronomikan, I hope you're doing well today.

the Network Unlock system app is a service that will SIM unlock your device in the event that your carrier unlocks it. You'd still need AT&T (or whoever your carrier is) to unlock the sim. Basically, this is just a service system app.

I hope this helps clarify things. Have a great rest of your day!

What should I do if I get this network unlock lock message

Hey there.

It sounds like you're trying to use a sim card that isn't intended for the device you're trying to use. You'd need to contact the carrier the device was purchased from.

No it's the same Sim card since buying phone a year ago

In this case, I'd look into getting a new sim card. Based on experience, it sounds corrupted.
