Hi all, I am having a slight problem unlocking my Nokia 6230, I have been given some unlock keys and I have followed previously posted instructions i.e. take the sim card out and type in the code, but nothing happens the code just sits on the screen, is there something that I am supposed to do once the code is typed in or should it work automatically. Thanks for any advice in advance, Phil
Unlock Instructions: 1. Only try the supplied code once 2. Take out the SIM card from the phone.(unless it is a Nokia 6230i, you need to put a sim card from another Network in that one before you enter the code) 3.Type in the generated code in the phone (E.g) #pw+123456789101112+1# the phone will then normally reboot itself and come back on at which point it is unlocked. Try with a simcard from another network and it should accept it. You may be asked for the security code which is 12345 (or sometimes 00000) unless you changed it or "PIN code" if the sim card itself has a security code(normally a 4 digit code supplied with the sim card) .If you enter the wrong Sim PIN 10 times you will be asked for a PUK code which you need to get from the Network.
Hi, Thanks for the reply, the phone that I have is defo the 6230 and not the i one, but again after carrying out the instructions nothing happens, is it worth trying it with a SIM card in, what is the worse that can happen??? Thanks harq
