Issue abstract: My sim pin card password just forced itself to activate while I was on the net
Detailed description: I was on space battle forum when all of a sudden. My sim password activated. I didn’t click on anything since there’s no ad. It just forced itself on me with no explanation. I have no additional apps so I’m stumped.
A little clarification is needed to see just what is happening here.
Have you set a password for accessing your SIM card? Are you saying that you are prompted to enter the password when you put the device in Airplane Mode? That may be normal. I have not used a SIM password so I cannot test.
What in your images is related to being asked for the SIM password?
I set up a password for the sim card. It asked for it in the middle of reading from that image. Then it asked for my password/fingerprint.But the sim passcode should only occur when I restart or turn on the phone.
What you’re seeing is the image before hand. That’s what I saw when it happened. Nothing out of the ordinary happened when it occurred. It just happened.
This does not sound like a Norton issue, but something with your Android OS. Did that recently get an update? Maybe with Airplane mode enabled, the app you were using was trying to establish a connection and it caused the SIM password pop up to appear.
No updates. I was just reading the website when it happened. The last app, Samsung Members, update was six-seven days prior. I activated my airplane mode seconds after it occured on my A51.
