It is very easy to permanently cancel Samsung Region Lock. All you have to do is call for 5 minutes with a SIM card from the same market as the device. For example, do you want to use a European telephone with an Asian SIM card? First call someone for at least 5 minutes with a European SIM card. The regional lock will be lifted, so you can use your Samsung device with SIM cards from every region. Do you have a dual SIM? Then Use the second SIM card for 5 minutes as well.

recently there was someone who purchased a Samsung A71 unlocked... in Italy. his actual sim was a USA network. he had a similar issue and had to get it region unlocked.

maddog is right with what they are saying but if youre having trouble obtaining a European active sim then contact Samsung. reason why I'm saying this is because the person who bought his A71 contacted Samsung and they lifted the region lock for him remotely. he said he rang up Samsung.

I'm hoping its just a region lock and not a network lock.
