Dear Samsung team,

I bought my Samsung s24plus mobile from T-Mobile so one sim network is locked. I use to do temporary unlock and use. Now after one ui whenever I switch off the mobile and turn on the network gets locked even though I made the temporary unlocked when it reaches the 30th day it gets locked again and I unlock it again but now whenever switch off or restart the temporary unlock is getting locked. This issue came after one ui 8 update. Now the main issue because of this is the T-Mobile network provides limited temporary unlock I use to have the habit of switching off the phone 2 days once for an hour and if I keep doing this the limit will exceed and I cannot do temporary unlock for the entire year. So please do check with that and give an update for it. Next month I have international trip and I need to use the second sim of this keeps happening I can't use that. So please do check on it.
 
Thanks!

@praneethr5 All network unlocking would be done by your carrier, T-Mobile. Samsung does not have the ability to unlock a carrier locked phone.

Thanks for the comment I know that. But the problem is, let me put this way today I have did the temporary unlock and now I am restarting my mobile now again the network gets locked before updating my mobile to One ui 8 I didn't have this issue. T-mobile has some limit for this temporary unlock. So if I keep turning of restarting my mobile then each time I need to do temporary unlock at the end the maximum limit will exceed:/. I hope you could understand now?

Why not just ask TMobile to permanently unlock it?

I believe T-Mobile lets you unlock it after 90 days on the service whether it is paid off or not.

If you have T-Mobile, then you have unlimited data in 220 countries and calling at .25/minute.  You can use wi-fi calling whenever you are in a location that has wi-fi. If you don't have one of those plans (some basic plans don't have it), then you can likely buy an international package for about the same amount it would cost you for a foreign carrier SIM.  Contact T-Mobile.
