How to Open Redmi Sim Slot Without Pin
Troubleshooting Guide for Indian Redmi Users
If your Redmi phone’s SIM slot is locked or unresponsive due to a forgotten PIN, follow these easy methods to resolve the issue:
1. Check SIM Card Compatibility
Ensure your SIM card is Nano-SIM (most Redmi models use this).
Clean the SIM tray with a soft cloth to remove debris.
Avoid using damaged or bent SIM cards.
2. Enter SIM PIN via Dialer
Step 1: Open the Dialer app (📞) and type *#*#4636#*#*.
Step 2: Select “SIM Card Information” > “SIM 1” > “Set APN”.
Step 3: A screen will prompt you to enter the SIM PIN. If forgotten, try common default PINs (e.g., 1111, 1234, 0000, or your SIM provider’s default).
3. Force SIM tray Removal (No PIN)
For Redmi Note 10/12 series:
Use the ejector tool (included in the SIM tray packaging) to gently pop the tray out.
For Redmi 10X/AX series:
Insert the SIM tray’s notch with your fingernail and slide upward.
Caution: Avoid using sharp objects to prevent damage.
4. Reset Network Settings
Go to Settings > System > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Reinsert the SIM card after resetting to刷新 network configurations.
5. Check SIM Lock Status
Contact your Indian telecom provider (Airtel, Jio, Vodafone, etc.) to verify if the SIM is locked.
Request a PIN-unlock code via SMS or call customer support.
6. Use Mi Cloud Account
Sign in to your Mi Cloud account (mi.com) via Settings > Mi Account.
Cloud recovery may reset SIM-related settings if linked.
7. Factory Reset (Last Resort)
Backup data first.
Go to Settings > System > Reset > Factory Reset.
After reset, reinsert the SIM card and set up the phone again.
8. Contact Redmi Service Center
If all methods fail, visit an authorized Redmi service center in India.
Mention the model (e.g., Redmi Note 12 Pro) and request professional assistance.
Important Notes for Indian Users:
Avoid forcing the SIM tray if stuck—this can bend the tray or damage the phone.
Jio and Airtel SIMs are commonly used in India; ensure compatibility.
For Redmi 12C/13 series, the SIM slot is hybrid (SIM + microSD), so double-check placement.
