IMEI- 35503001214018 Firmware - 05.34 Nokia 6230 IMEI- 35503001214018 Cingular Wireless USA I don't know if it needs to be unlocked or what not. When i enter the sim card it is asking for a restriction code. I am not sure if that is the same as unlocking it. Thank you for your help
i have cingular and i have a cingular sim card. i think i entered a wrong puk code and then my sim got fried. so i went to get a new one. they gave me one but when i put it in it is asking for a restriction code. Don't know what to put and cingular doesn't know what code it is. i don't need it to be unlocked just need it to work again.

jeter0490 Well that's odd. Like YesYou suggests-- Sounds like it's hardlocked. You can try this but It may be a waste of time. ( ) Put in a SIM from a new Network. Your code:Try this [bold]once and once only.[/bold] #pw+757020673512236+1# To enter code: Make sure battery is charged. 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 #. IMPORTANT!! Verify code before pressing the last #. Pay attention. You only have about two seconds. "Phone restrictions off", it's unlocked. "Error code" wrong code. [bold]STOP[/bold] tell me. "Not allowed" or "Can Not Undo Restriction" it's hard locked. Used up all your free tries!! [bold] If it does not work, tell me: What happened? What message you got. What codes you rtied.[/bold] JG
When i enter the code it says phone restricted. and i can't do anything. But if i turn it off and on i can enter a new code. If the sim card is out it says cannot undo restriction. PS: i am not trying to unlock my phone so i can use it with another carrier. I accidentally played around with the settings and when i turned my phone on it was asking for this code.
jeter0490 A hard locked phone will still work on the original Service Provider. I have no idea what yout problem is. "Phone restrictions off", it's unlocked. "Error code" wrong code. [bold] STOP [/bold] tell me. "Not allowed" or "Can Not Undo Restriction" it's hard-locked. Used up all your free tries!! Someone has entered too many wrong codes before you came to us. You only get 3 to 5 tries. If you enter the same code two times, that is two tries. Your phone is hard-locked. You will need to take it to a phone shop that has the equipment to unlock it. Have a look at this. It is the first Thread on this Forum. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/382376 One solution for a hardlocked phone. http://unlocknokia.byyourcommand.net/viewforum.php?f=16 I have no financial affiliation with this Site. I am acquainted with it and the work they do there. They are many. JG
I just found this out today! The Nokia 6230 is a 2 Gen (generation) phone, if you have a new verson of your sims card which may be a 3 Gen. Your phone won't work with your newer verson sims card!!!! That makes sense, right!? Let me know if this helps you!
