SIM locks: 

These are factory set locks, such as "PF", "PN", "PU", "PP", "PC". An 8-digit unlocking code is 
required to operate the mobile with a different SIM card, or to lift the lock. The code can only be 
obtained from the provider. Failure to enter the password is subject to the same timing algorithm as 
the Master Phone Code (see Table above). 
 

Call barring: 

Supported modes are "AO", "OI", "OX", "AI", "IR", "AB", "AG", "AC". If the call barring password is 
entered incorrectly three times, the client will need to contact the service provider to obtain a new 
one.
