How Do I Reach The Owner Of This Phone? by ajarossi(m): 8:01am On Mar 15, 2017
On my way to site yesterday I picked this white vivo phone,latter around 12pm the owner of the phone(a lady) called and gave her address as omaba phase 2 onitsha.

I told her to come to munarch bus stop obosi in anambra state in the evening hours to collect it. After the conversation, calls were coming n the batry was down I decided to off the phone and on it latter.


On getting to the bus stop in the evening, I on the phone only to notice that both the sim and phone was luck with password to the extents that I cant make calls,receive calls nor even retrieve any number from it.

I went to mtn office close to the bus top they couldn't offer any solution without the puk number...the only option is to flash the phone and I dont want to flash it.pls I need to return this phone to the lady how ll I do it? In case any of her relatives is on nairaland he or she should reach me on nelouche@gmail.com or report to the vicar amazing grace anglican church odume layout obosi,idemili north anambra state

Very good of you OP

Even if it's Nokia 3310 some will still not return it.

Im thinking you take the phone to an engineer for unlocking.. After that, this will grant you access to the phone contacts. You can call any random number for guidance on how to locate the lady in question

Take it to the address she gave you. Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

Remove the sim and put in another phone na!

Haba! Small matter!

When the person calls, arrange to return the phone.

Do a factory reset, the password will be erased.
Shut the phone down,hold the power and volume buttons and follow prompt

Dont do that, you will erase the contacts as well. Put the sim in another phone and check if there are any sim contacts, then call someone to assist you in reaching the owner of the phone.

She still lock the sim too? Why not remove the sim and put it in another phone and see if you can get any contact from there?

If you flash the phone you'll lose all the content which may include contacts on the phone so it will be hard to reach her unless she or someone calls.

Lalasticlala you no go carry this matter go front page?

Locked ke? I wasn't paying attention then grin grin grin grin

In that case..... Call customer care for the PUK and then block the line.

You cannot call customer care for a sim that you don't even know the number grin grin

Customer care should be able to match the number from the serial number on the sim card
