Samsung Galaxy 8+ Not Prompting for Unlock Code

I have requested and received the unlock code; however, my phone does not prompt for the code when I insert the Straight Talk sim card. I can send and receive calls but I have issues with messages. Can anyone help me? Why is it not prompting me to insert the code?

Because straight talk uses att for there service.  A locked att phone will work on straight talk without being unlocked.  Make sure your apn is entered correctly for straight talk.  To unlock without a sim put this number in your phone dialer   #7465625*638*#
