What is a Network Unlock Code (NCK)?
An unlock code or NCK code is a unique numeric code calculated from your phone’s IMEI that removes the carrier SIM lock. Once entered, your Galaxy A56 will accept any compatible SIM worldwide—no rooting or risky software needed.

- Power off your Galaxy A56 and insert a non-AT&T SIM.
- Turn it on; you’ll see the prompt: “Enter SIM network unlock PIN.”
- Type the network unlock code (NCK) you purchased and tap Unlock.
- Success! The SIM lock is removed and the phone is permanently factory unlocked.

Why Is My Phone SIM Locked?
Carriers lock devices to their network. When you switch SIMs, the phone requests a SIM unlock code. Entering a valid network unlock code removes the SIM lock so you can use local or international carriers, improve resale value, and avoid roaming fees.
FAQ — Samsung Galaxy A56 Unlock
Is my Galaxy A56 eligible for unlock?
Most devices are eligible as long as they’re not blacklisted and can read the IMEI. If your status shows SIM card locked or SIM network unlock PIN required, you can usually unlock with an official NCK.
What information do I need to order?
Only the IMEI (dial *#06#) and carrier (AT&T). The service then generates your NCK code/SIM unlock code.
Will unlocking delete my data or void the warranty?
No. Entering a legitimate network unlock code is a manufacturer-approved method and does not affect your data or hardware warranty.
What if my phone says “SIM locked” even after I enter a code?
First, confirm you entered the exact unlock code. Many models have limited attempts; if you run out, the device may require an Unfreeze/Defreeze code (also provided when needed). If it still shows SIM card locked, reboot with the target SIM and try again.
Is the unlock permanent?
Yes. The network unlock code permanently removes the SIM lock. Your Galaxy A56 will stay unlocked even after software updates or factory resets.
How long does it take to receive the code?
Delivery times vary by carrier database, but most AT&T Galaxy A56 orders are fulfilled quickly. You’ll receive the exact NCK code and simple instructions by email.
Troubleshooting & Tips
- If you see “SIM network PIN blocked,” you might have used too many wrong attempts. Wait for the counter to reset or request an unfreeze/MCK with your order.
- After unlocking, set APN settings for data/MMS with your new carrier.
- Dual-SIM variants: unlock applies to the device, not a single slot—both SIM trays benefit from the SIM unlock code.
