Unlocking the Kyocera Android Device Unlock App

How to use the Device Unlock App for a Kyocera model

How does it work?

Instead of entering an unlocking code to unlock the phone, your device will be unlocked directly by the network. There's no code to enter.

When ready, we will notify you by email that your Kyocera device has been unlocked.

You then need to do the following:

  1. Connect your Kyocera phone to WiFi
  2. Open the 'Device Unlock App' from your phone
  3. Select 'Permanent Unlock' option
  4. Next, the device will check it's status on the remote server.
  5. Finally, select re-start, after it will be unlocked

Below is a simple video guide showing this:



Troubleshooting the Device Unlock App process

  1. Check you have an active data connection over WiFi.
  2. If need be, clear the application cache.
  3. Check the device memory is properly managed.
  4. Restart the device and try again.


  1. Ensure you're using the original ROM (no custom Firmware EgCyanogenMod or Unbranded ROM)
  2. Ensure the device is using the latest Firmware version.
  3. If upgraded, do a Hard Reset
  4. You may need to switch off 3G/LTE and force the device to use WiFi
  5. (Use a home/trusted WiFi connection and not a public one)
