Unlock instructions for the Vodafone Smart Speed
- Insert a non-One NZ SIM card
- Power on the handset. The device will display "Network locked" or "SIM ME lock"
- Enter the SIM unlock code
- Select "OK" - the handset is now successfully unlocked.
Note: If the "SIM network unlock PIN" is entered incorrectly more than 10 times, the phone will display another "unlock SIM BLOCK" prompt screen and ask for an unblock pin.
Please contact One NZ on 777 again to receive this unblock pin.
After the unblock pin is entered correctly the phone will still be locked but now the "SIM network unlock PIN" prompt screen is brought back.

Please note: We cannot guarantee that an unlocked phone will be compatible with another network.
This is because different networks may use different technologies and frequencies. Please check compatibility requirements with the destination network provider.
Important: Do not try to guess, or make up, your unlock code.
If our instructions are not followed carefully and you enter an incorrect code multiple times, you may lock your phone completely.
