I'm sorry I don't know what "add a prompt for EnterPin" means.

I would be surprised if call forwarding and call waiting ("Phone"
category) could be changed with the SIM locked. But whether System
Settings itself requires the SIM to be unlocked isn't relevant. (Those
functions could trigger a system-provided on-demand PIN prompt just like
everything else could.) As I said, the reason System Settings should
include the ability to unlock the SIM is that it would be strange for
System Settings to include the ability to do everything with the SIM PIN
*except* unlocking it.

Bug description:
  Build r91

  1. set up a SIM PIN or make sure the inserted SIM has already a set up SIM PIN (reboot device if needed)
  2. after reboot, don't unlock
  3. navigate to System Settings > Security & Privacy > SIM PIN

  What you see: A green tick on the toggle next to the SIM PIN and
  beneath that a "Change PIN..." button

  What you should see: Some way to unlock the SIM without turning off
  the SIM PIN.

  There are three relevant states for a SIM:
  (A) no SIM PIN set
  (B) SIM PIN set, SIM locked
  (C) SIM PIN set, SIM unlocked.

  If a SIM PIN is set, when you start up the phone you have the choice
  to unlock it (switch from B to C) or not (stay on B).

  If you don't unlock it, you can't make or receive calls, send or
  receive SMS, or use cellular data in any app. And you probably can't
  predict ahead of time whether you'll want to do any of those things.

  Currently System Settings only lets you turn the SIM PIN on (A to C)
  or off (C to A), not to unlock it. System Settings should let you do
  this too.

  "Whenever it is locked, at the trailing end should be an 'Unlock…'
  button..."
