Learn how to setPIN for SIM on your Huawei Ascend P7. A personal identification number (PIN) is delivered with your SIM card to better protect your phone data. If you enable the SIM card lock, you must enter the PIN each time you turn your phone on.

Before you perform the following operations, make sure you have obtained your SIM card’s PIN from your service provider.

On the home screen, touch Settings icon.
Under All, touch Security.
Touch Set up SIM card lock.
Select the Lock SIM card check box.
Enter your PIN, and touch OK.
Touch Change SIM PIN to change the PIN.

Note: The SIM card allows only a limited number of consecutive retries if an incorrect PIN is entered. If this limit is exceeded, you must enter a PIN unblocking key (PUK), which you can obtain from your service provider. The number of consecutive attempts to enter the PUK incorrectly is also limited. If this limit is exceeded, your SIM card will be permanently disabled. For details about these limits, contact your service provider.
