2. What is the emergency unlock code for vivo?

Vivo doesn’t have a universal emergency unlock code applicable to all of its devices. However, some Vivo phones might have an emergency unlock feature or an SOS mode that allows users to quickly access emergency contacts or make emergency calls without unlocking the device. If you’re looking for an unlock code for a specific Vivo phone model, you might need to contact Vivo customer support or refer to the device’s user manual for instructions on how to access emergency features. Alternatively, emergency services like 911 (in the United States) can often be dialed even on a locked phone without needing to enter an unlock code.

3. What is PUK code in vivo?

PUK stands for “Personal Unblocking Key.” It’s a unique code provided by your mobile network operator to unlock a SIM card that has become locked due to entering the wrong PIN multiple times. In Vivo phones, as with other smartphones, the PUK code is not specific to the device itself but rather to the SIM card. If your Vivo phone displays a message saying “SIM network unlock PIN” or something similar, it likely means that the SIM card is locked, and you need to enter the PUK code to unlock it.
