Hi. I messed up and incorrectly entered the wrong code 5 times with my Nokia 3650. I really want to unlock it and I was wondering if someone could recommend the best cable to use. I know there are some available for under $30 but I cant seem to find a website selling them. I live in the US. Please give me a url to buy a cable so I can unlock my phone =) Thanks

The reason why you don't find a cable to unlock your phone is because there is not such a thing.

Simple cable, or dongle is for dct3 phones, not for dct4. Dct4 phones must be flashed if incorrectly typed code 5 times.

A box costs too much money for just one phone. It is best to try to find a small repair shop, that will charge max 20usd to flash it.

Best regards

Hmmmm.... can it be flashed using bluetooth or perhaps from the memory card if I can get a hold of the flash file?

Unfortunately there's no way to do that. The only way is flashing the phone. A box is really to expensive.

To understand what is flashing, flashing is replacing the firmware of the phone with one equal but with no lock programmed. For that you need a box, wich as i said, is too expensive for just one phone. The cheapest are something like 150-200, all the way up to 400 euros.

The best solution is a small repair shop, unless you have 400 euros that are too much weight on your pocket :lol:

Best regards,
Edge
