its because you are using a code for a dct4 phpne :)

choose the settings for a 3310, they are the same as your phone

i have got the unlock from using the DCT3 calculator (vodafone uk) and i am having the same problem.. it appears that once i have entered the + the hash sign will not appear :(

therefore i cant enter the last # in order to generate the unlock :(

any help?

Hi, I found this thread while trying to solve a similar problem and thought it could use some filling out. The Nokia 3315 (and possibly other Nokias) wont let you hit the # key if you haven't entered the correct number of digits, that's what the problem is (it has nothing to do with the speed Gieffel).

My issue was this, Optus seems to have a bad system for informing you of your unlock code that probably effects 10% of the people who use the officially provided method. First you phone them after the contract specifies that you are allowed to have your phone unlocked. Then they send you a text message with the code and you call them back and they tell you how to enter in the code.

For some reason the code that they sent me was missing a leading zero, and the support person I spoke to had no idea why I couldn't press the # key to complete the unlock. She just advised me to visit an Optus shop and get it done there. So I ended up figuring out how to generate the code myself and that's when I realised that the zero was missing.
