    Hi,
    I think I have unblocked my phone but when I put my other sim card in the phone comes up with the message "sim card rejected"

    Could you tell me what I'm doing (or have done wrong)? And how I can get it to work?

    Nokia 6230
    IMEI: 355008009811781
    locked to Vodafone (uk)

    Thanks in advance
    Gashead Gaz

    Well I put in a code and got the message "phone restriction off" (or something simular) I took this to mean it's unlocked?

    the code I used was #pw+083393103155103+1#

    I will try another sim and report back in a mo.

    Thanks

    Yeah I've put an orange one in and it works fine - it is just coming up "sim not registered" with my 3 sim card (which works fie in my 6280.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Thanks for the replies!

    i think it must be a sim problem because it won't register in my old 7210 either.

    I will have to give 3 a ring to see if there is anything they can do.

    I only want to use the 6230 for a few days while they repair my crappy 6280 (which seems to have lots of things wrong with it!)

    Thanks again
    Gaz

    Got an answer in the end.

    Apparently it's because the 3 sim card is a 3G sim card and the other two phones do not support 3G.

    Thanks
