As far as I know, c. is just whether you want the phone to ask for the
SIM card pin code when you unlock it. With my telco at least the option
seems to be on by default for new SIM cards. I just got a new smaller
SIM card for my new phone and it was asking for the PIN code.

Haven't used Android 4.3 in a while though.
