Nokia Series 40, 60 and 80 Reset Codes Thread

[dmapr]

hey can some body help me unlock nokia 6280 locked with 3g network?

Your best bet is to ask 3g for unlock code. I've seen some people claim to be able to unlock 3g phones but in general BB5 phones can only be unlocked with the codes from the provider.

Forgive my ignorance but are reset codes different from unlock codes? I'm trying to unlock a Nokia 9300 locked to Cingular and I'm having a hard time finding the info. With my old AT&T SIM in the phone, it displays "invalid SIM card" and won't allow any input from the phone keypad.

Any and all help greatly appreciated!

Reset codes are different from unlock codes — you need the unlock code. Again, the safest way would be to get it from Cingular.

hello!

I want to reset my Nokia 6680 but I've changed and of course forgotten my Lock Code, so the recepy *#7370#, 12345 doesn't function any more.

Any solutions?

and second, where do you put in the master security code?

Tnx

[hme83]

Try using this website to generate the master security code for your Nokia.

Master Security Code

You would input the security code in "settings (or configuration)/more settings/security settings/access codes/change security code" (or something similar).

Word of caution: the 6680 is a BB5 phone, this master code generator is probably limited to DCT-4 phones and may not work.

Below are some reset codes for various Series 40, 60 and the new Series 80 Communicator series (Nokia 9300/9500):


Full Reset: (clears everything off the phone memory!! Be sure to back up your contacts!!): *#7370#, 12345 and then Yes.

Soft Reset: *#7780#, 12345 and then Yes. (Also works on Nokia S40 phones as a full reset)

*#335738#
*#delset#

This deletes the Email, GPRS, MMS settings that cannot be erased via phone options. (Newer Series 40 phones only i.e. 6230(b))

Nokia 9300 (not confirmed) and Nokia 9500 (based on link below):

1. Turn off phone and take out battery
2. Insert battery, and while it boots up press and hold Ctrl + Shift + F
3. After a few seconds you will be asked if you want to format or cancel

HowardForums: Your Mobile Phone Community & Resource - Nokia 9500

Other useful codes are:

*#0000# Firmware Version/Date (All Nokia GSM handsets)
*#92702689# (*#Warranty#) - Shows Life Timer, Phone Manufacturing, Repair and Purchase Dates (Series 40 phones only, you need to power off and back on after viewing this menu).
*#06# IMEI of your phone (standard to all GSM phones)

I'll add more info as it becomes necessary. PM me or post your questions/feedback below.

hi!
I'm new here but you are in these things so
can you hellp me and tell me how to disable auto keypad lock on nokia n70.
And i haven't instaled any program for auto locking keypad

Thanks

[hme83]

Look in "settings" for "security" "auto-lock period" and set it to "none".

This should turn off your automatic security keyguard lock.

Hi,

I want to hard set my Nokia 6230. The *#7730# and *#7780# are not working for my mobile. I mean after I enter those code there is no response at all. The reason I want to hard set my fone is; I'm getting head phone symbol on my display screen and due to that I couldn't able to hear the call at my ear if I get any. If I on the loud speaker then I can to receive the call. I gone through "Enhancement settings" also to remove that symbol, but still it remains. Thats the reason I want to hard set my fone. Please find me any solution.

Thank you in advance.

Welcome to WA!

I don't know that it will work, but it's worth a shot if you haven't already tried it - if you have a headset for the 6230, plug in the headset, call your mobile phone from another phone, answer the call, disconnect the call, then disconnect the headset. It may force the headset connection to reset - it seems the phone thinks a headset is being used.

Also, have you already tried using the menu option for a factory reset?

[prabhakarglv]

Hi,

I really thank you for your prompt reply. For your kind information, I don't have head set for this mobile. However I tried by resetting factory settings, but the problems stands still. Please let me know is there any other way to find the solution. If not I just want to hard reset my mobile. I tried with the codes, but the phone not at responding at all when I enter those codes. I thank you once again for your reply. Have a nice day ahead.

Regards,

Prabhakar.

I haven't ever tried using the codes so I don't know why the phone wouldn't be responding to them - you did enter the code then the ", 12345" (security code portion) as ShoresGuy indicates?

And if you've changed your phone's security code, you would need to use it - not "12345". 12345 is the factory default security code for Nokias.

I don't really know of anything else to try - hopefully someone else will. Some Nokia models seem to have had a problem with the headset indicator/audio routing becoming "hung".

[prabhakarglv]

Hi,

Thank you for your reply again. I did tried with factory default code (12345) and the Security master Code also. i also tried by using *#7370#, but there is no response. However there is no problem in resetting the phone, but it doesn't erase all the memory in the phone (The contacts and others remains the same), however it doesn't remove that headset symbol. That's the main concern to me. Thank u once again for your reply.

Hi,

I have a problem, I recently bought a new another SIM, when I switch on y phone with this new SIM, it asked for the some security code. But I don't know any code, what I know I tried with all of them. Now my phone is not accepting any other new SIM except the existing one.

Can I hard reset it? I am using Nokia 5300 XpressMusic edition phone. If yes, please let me know the code and advices to reset it.

Thanks a lot.

[hme83]

Have you tried using "12345" as the security code? That is the typical Nokia factory default if you haven't changed it.

DO YOU KNOW IF MY NOKIA 6255i is unlocked for CDMA networks? It has all 0`s when it is turned on, please reply.

[M in LA]

DO YOU KNOW IF MY NOKIA 6255i is unlocked for CDMA networks? It has all 0`s when it is turned on, please reply.

This is not information anyone here has. You would need to check with your carrier as to whether they lock their phones.

CDMA phones are notoriously difficult to get working on other networks. The possibility is there, but isn't guaranteed.

Since you are in Belize, it's hard to say what other CDMA networks are out there for you to use.

If you were in the US, you would have a difficult, if not impossible time trying to use your 6255i on Sprint or Verizon. It's difficult to say whether Alltel, MetroPCS, or Cricket would allow it.

One most important thing-Earlier the mobile had 4 themes(Black.nth,Zodiac.nth,Marble.nth,Nokia.nth).
Now it shows "Zodiac.nth as corrupted theme" and Marble.nth is not at all shown in th options.

So on the whole i have 3 themes(now) out of which 2 work while one doesn't

Have you already tried "12345" - that is generally the default security code for Nokias if it has never been changed.

yeah i have already tried that, as well as every other code i can think of. The security code was never changed, I drove over the phone and cracked the screen.. I sent it in for repairs and when i got it back, it was locked.

Did Nokia do the repairs for you? Or have you contacted the repair shop about it?

I would - particularly if it was Nokia - they should make it right.

yeah it was nokia that repaired it.. I called them but they say that they cant give me the code over the phone. I have to go to nokia. I would rather leave going to nokia as the last resort, but it seems like its my only option.
