Unlock Your Facebook Profile: Simple Trick

Unlock Facebook Profile

Facebook has introduced a new feature which allow users to lock their profiles in many countries, including India. This is aimed at providing more privacy to its users. It is surely going to give a hard time for the online stalker and bullies. To enable this feature, a user has to click "More" under their name on Facebook Profile and select "Lock Profile" and tap again to confirm. It is to be noted that after locking a profile, you can no longer make posts public and only your friends will be able to see them. Other people visiting your profile won't be able to see any of your posts, including the ones you posted before locking your profile.

While it is too easy to lock a profile, but when a user needs to unlock his profile again, it can give him a hard time. When I tried this new feature, I was also not able to find an option to unlock my profile anywhere in my Facebook account. So, after some time, I came up with an idea and tested if it works or not... and guess what? It did.

So, follow the steps below and I will help you unlock your profile within some minutes. Note that, this trick has been tested by me on multiple accounts, and I was able to unlock each one of them.

Firstly, go to http://www.newipnow.com/  and type in the search box: mbasic.facebook.com and clink on any proxy of USA from the list. I have chosen Florida, United States here (marked by red rectangle):



Then you'll see a login screen like this:

unlock your facebook profile
Enter your username and password and click Log In.

Now, you'll see a message warning you that your account is temporarily locked and Facebook will ask you to verify your identity. Don't panic, this happens because you are using a proxy server right now and Facebook thinks that you're located in America. 

Click Continue:



Now, in the next image, select from the dropdown menu: Get  acode sent to your email address and hit Continue:



If you haven't added an email address to your Facebook account yet, you'll see the option to send the code to your phone number as well, don't worry :)

After that, you'll receive a code in your email/phone, enter it in the given box as shown:


In the next screen that appears, click Continue. Congrats, you're now logged in to your account. You'll see the mobile version of your Facebook account even if you are following this trick from your phone. 

Now, go to Profile:


Click on Your Profile is Locked:



In the next screen, click See more options:




Next, hit Unlock your profile:


On the next screen, again press the Unlock your profile button:


That's it. You've now successfully unlocked your profile.


Now, scroll down and log out.
Your account is successfully unlocked. Now, you can make your posts public and all the people will again be able to interact with you.
If you are unable to complete the process, get back to me through comments

Thank you. I hope this helps :)

Can Rahul Gandhi's resignation revive the Congress Party?

About 8.3 crores new voter voted in the last Lok Sabha elections, myself being one among them. So, as far as I learnt and know about the recent past of the Congress party, I would say it would be hard.. very hard for resuscitating the party once again considering Rahul Gandhi’s resignation as well. Rahul Gandhi has been the President of the party since quite some years, but now he finally decided to step down after his resignation letter was turned down by the working committee some months back. The party has just lost its charms. With all those allegations of scam on several top class leaders of the party, and less or no improvement in the grass root level workers, have even deteriorated the places which were known to be the stronghold of Congress. The recent defeat of Rahul Gandhi in the hands of Smriti Irani indicates the same. There were several states where congress’s list remained null in the elections for Lok Sabha 2019. On the other hand, what I have seen in the case of...

Role of Media in the Formation of a Sound and Healthy Society

The world of journalism has long been referred to as, ‘the media’ in the context of books and newspapers i.e. print media in the early days, but with the advent of technology, media now encompasses television, movies, radio and internet. The media plays a pivotal role in proper functioning of a democracy and also influences strongly in shaping a public opinion. The oppressed can hold grounds and fight their way out by making proper use of the media. It is considered the 4 th pillar of a democracy and rightly so, since it helps in upholding the truth time and again. The role of the media in the formation of a sound and healthy society, as such, cannot be underrated. From the beginning of civilization, media has remained a very important part. Yes, it is true that its shape has changed since the past due to technological advancements and other such factors, but nonetheless, its functioning remains the same. From the days of emperors and kings when decrees were accompanied by s...

Dire need for Chandrayaan - 2 in a developing country like India: An Opinion

CV Raman, APJ Abdul Kalam, Homi Bhaba, Ramanujan, Satyendra Nath Bose… and the list goes on. Do I need to introduce them? - I suppose not. So, what was the need that arose alongside them which made all of them work so hard and eventually succeed in their respective time periods? If you consider the time during which they were alive, most of the people in the country were trying to survive and not thrive. Those were some of the people who rose from the ground, yet never left their roots and worked towards the upliftment of the lives of people in general and India in particular. Yeah, India was looted by several organisations and invaders for several thousand years before finally being left devastated under the British Rule. After many a thousands sacrifices, we were finally able  to free ourselves out from their clutches. Afterwards, India was left with very little natural resources and the economy went on to become an agrarian one. Industrialization has been too slow. Addi...
