Having network issues with your mobile device can be frustrating, especially when you're unable to make calls or access the internet.

If you have purchased an unlocked device from us, rest assured that we have thoroughly checked it for BYOD compatibility before selling.
It's important to note that in most GSM unlocked or Fully unlocked phones we can easily insert an active BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) SIM card and register the IMEI with the carrier for calls. However, if you encounter any issues during this process, follow the steps below to troubleshoot and resolve the problem.
When you insert your SIM card into the device, observe if a white window appears, asking for an unlock code. If you receive this prompt, you may need to obtain an unlock code from your carrier. If you purchased the device from CELLMIGO, Contact us for the unlock code.
On the other hand, if you get a message indicating network block, it could indicate a different issue that needs to be addressed.
