The safest way is to request an unlock from the original carrier.....

This cannot be refused unless your Tab is on a contract.......but they are entitled to make a charge, if they so wish.

As you already know from other posts, there are also unlock utilities available.....but you use these at your own risk, because they may not work.

after doing a little research on the web why it's asking for sim network unlock pin, found out it's because my device it locked with a certain carrier/provider. i made sure it was already unlocked when i got, i was even able to use for about a week. however, for some reason it got locked again and got that message. i'm sure i didn't make any changes because this is my first time to have a samsung tab, that's when i tried to do more research about it and i know there's a way to do it but i guess i need a more detailed guide, please help... thanks!

Great minds have mulled your predicament and have concluded....... you should either return it to your Supplier, or do a Factory Reset......details below
