    Errrrrm

    How do I find the IMEI number for a Nokia 6230i? Can't see it inside. I've removed battery & sim card

    Issued by Orange
    I want to use it with an O2 sim
    UK

    It's my phone, but don't have box etc

    Thanks

    Please supply ALL this information in this format:

    Type in these numbers or look under the battery to get the information.

    IMEI:Type (dial) *#06# ,
    Firmware Version:Type (dial) *#0000# .

    Nokia: (Model)
    IMEI:############### (No spaces, no slashes)
    Network: (The Network the phone is locked to)
    Country: (The Country the above Network is in)

    Also any codes tried AND how many tries you have made.

    Without this, we can do nothing.

    OK sorry. As I don't have the IMEI number I couldn't supply.

    Looked under the battery but no number

    cannot enter #06# as I only get the 'Enter restriction code' screen

    Nokia: 6230i
    IMEI:############### (No spaces, no slashes)
    Network: (orange)
    Country: (UK)

    not tried any codes

    the sim card should be removed also before you enter *#06#
    hope this helps

    Your code:

    #pw+295295015314106+7#

    Try this ONCE and ONCE only.
    Remember,you only get 3 to 5 tries.
    If you enter the same code two times,
    that is two tries.
    To enter code:
    Make sure battery is charged.
    Put in a SIM from a new Network.
    A new one or one with NO security PINs enabled.
    Power on.
    Select UNDO with NEW SIM in phone.
    Press the # key.
    then press the "star" key (*)
    quickly to get the P and W and +

    Press * 3 times quickly for (p) \
    Press * 4 times quickly for (w) IMPORTANT
    Press * 2 times quickly for (+) /
    and the rest of the code---
    Begin with # and end with #.
    No spaces.
    Select OK



    "Phone restrictions off", it's unlocked.
    "Error code" wrong code. STOP tell me.
    "Not allowed" or "Can Not Undo Restriction"
    it is hard locked.
    Used up all your free tries!!

    If it does not work, tell me: What happened?
    What message you got.
    What codes you tried.
    Above all, answer.
