Unlock Samsung Highlight T749
1. Power up your Samsung T749 with your unaccepted SIM card in.
2. Now, if your phone prompts for an unlock code, go ahead an enter it. However if no prompt is displayed, then type: #7465625*638*CODE#. Where CODE = your 8-digit unlock code.
3. Phone will say “Network Unlocked” and may automatically reboot.
Now you can use your Samsung Hightlight T749 on any phone network. Enjoy!
Hi there,
I just bought a Samsung Highlight phone locked to T-Mobile, but it does not access home wi-fi. Will it be able to connect to home wi-fi if unlocked? Thanks.

The Samsung Highlight does not have wi-fi capability built in to it.
Hey! I put my at&t sim into this phone and I would really like to know how to enable picture/multimedia messaging this?
I just bought a samsung highlight and didn’t read that it was a locked phone the person that sold it to me doesn’t know the lock code and thats why he sold it. So it was my error not to read it more closely
As soon as you power on it says you need the lock code.
thank you
hi i was just wondering if you can unlock my samsung highlight phone
Hey guys, your Samsung Highlight T749 should prompt you for an unlock code, whenever inserting an new (unaccepted) SIM card into it. The unlock code is something I unfortunately cannot provide you with. However, your best bet is to call up your current phone carrier and request one from them. If they won’t give you one, then I would recommend using one of the unlock code vendors I have provided above in the article. They will usually even give you some nice unlocking instructions to go with it. Good luck guys and I hope you can all unlock your Samsung Highlight easily. (Also note that entering more then 3 INCORRECT unlock codes on your phone can sometimes enable a security lock, which is NOT a good thing.)
Hey, I was able to unlock the samsung highlight t749 and then put an at&t sim card along with a data package. I can make calls, text, however, can not access the internet via the browser. I get the message “service unavailable” whenever trying to access any website. At&t tried helping but couldn’t figure it out. Any ideas??

Hey Ashley, are you trying to remove the SIM lock on your cell phone to use it wiht other phone carriers, etc? It sounds to me that you are rather trying to figure out how to unlock the user interface to access your phone. If that is the case, then this guide probably will not help you much, but you need rather to reset your firmware. I would suggest calling up your cell phone carrier or the manufacturer (Samsung) as they can probably help you with that type of problem. Good luck!
hey,
it seems to me that i have the same problem as Ashley.i bought a Samsung Highlight in may and my nephew was playing with it last night and when i tried to turn it on this morning, it told me to insert my password.i did but it still says incorrect PIN contact customer care, and i cant!! i don’t know what to do!!
i would really appreciate your help!!
Im locked out of my phone ! I forgot my 8 digit password to unlock my phone . Does anyone know the master code ? Please help !
I bought one t mobile t749 samsung but push mail, IM are not working any guide me wat to do
I am not sure that unlocking has anything to do with that problem. I would contact T-Mobile or your manufacturer for that. Sorry I coudnt help more. Good luck!
whelp called the tmobile store to see if i could get a code for it, sat on the phone with a gook for over an hour being put on hold every 5 minutes so she could “exhaust all of her resources” came back and said “sorry there is nothing i can do for u as the phone u are trying to use is locked to a certian provider” as i think in my head, no shit ya big dumb bitch
What’s da whole point of this blog if the eight digit number is not provided. FYI the provider will only give you the network lock code when the account is left in good standing and alot ppl do not leave with all their cell phones bills paid.
