I was trying to set a new pin code and it asked for a PUK code whatever that is, and now its locked up and wont let me do anything short of calling 911 without this code I have never seen.. anyone?

You need to contact your operator (network) and ask them for the puk code.

Your are being asked for this because there have been 3 incorrect attempts at entering the sim pin.

If you enter a puk code wrong 10 times you will permemently block that sim.
