    • Hi, perhaps your Huawei Y5c is locked with specific network provider, then you have to use same provider GSM simcard. However, first you can try to use different simcard (although different network provider) to make sure it is locked or not. If still can not work, then try to hard reset yout Huawei Y5C using menu setting like steps at #option 1 above, because your phone still can boot properly. If all steps all done but your Huawei Y5c still can not response with your network provider, then you may ask further check at Huawei authorize service center.
