    Thanks I have already tried that from the nokiaFREE calculator, that is the code for the 6230. It doesn't seem to work for the 6230i.

    Any other ideas?

    First, what happens when you enter the code?
    Did you get a message?
    What method did you use to enter the code?

    Did you get a message?
    Yes I get the message "CODE ERROR"

    What method did you use to enter the code?
    Remove sim first,power on the phone.
    After the phone boots up, press #
    Press * 3 times fast for (p)
    Press * 4 times fast for (w)
    Press * 2 times fast for (+)
    Verify code before pressing the last #.

    But no luck

    bandwidth,

    There's your problem.

    You will need a non O2 sim.

    Some Phones require that you to insert a non accepted

    sim.[bold] Before you do this, make sure the sim you use does NOT have a security PIN CODE. If it

    does, reset the security code to default 12345 with the original phone.[/bold] Insert a non

    accepted SIM and turn it on. You will see "phone restricted", select the UNDO option,then enter the

    code in the restriction box and press ENTER.
