SIM locked on Fairphone 2. [Solved]

[Opolork]

Hi.
Yestereve, my SIM was unlocked with a PIN as usual. Today, on bootup, it skipped the SIM unlock code part and went straight to the phone unlock code. How can this be remedied? I need to access a site with 2FA asap.
Thanks.

@Opolork If you pull down on the top black icon bar under Network you should be able to unlock the sim from there

@Lakotaubp Hi, I already tried that - no joy.

@Opolork What about the obvious IT reply and just switch it off and on again.

That's the same behaviour like in this thread. I can't unlock the SIM-card with the "unlock-button" too. I help myself by switching on flightmode and after a few seconds switch it off again. Then there appears the SIM-unlock-code.

@Lakotaubp I did that last night - I just got around to replying here now. Often, the simplest solutions are the best.

Cheers, @kristatos.
