Unlocking a cellphone, such as a Samsung B3310 slider phone, allows you to use the phone with different networks. The phone is programmed to a specific SIM card, which is a small plastic card that stores the service provider information. Once the phone is unlocked, you can swap out SIM cards.
Instructions
1. Open your Internet browser and navigate to a website that generates unlock codes for cellular phones (see Resources). Unfortunately, all websites that generate unlock codes will charge you for the code.
2. Enter the model of your phone in the appropriate on-screen text boxes. In this case, you will enter Samsung B3310.
3. Enter your payment and email information when prompted.
4. Confirm the purchase when the screen prompt appears, and the site will generate your new code. It may take a moment or two for the site to send you the code.
5. Access your email and open the email from the code site to retrieve the code.
6. Turn on your B3310 phone and enter the unlock code the same way you would dial a phone number. The SIM card will then unlock. You can replace it with a new SIM card by accessing the current card in the battery compartment and removing it.
