Hey guys,
I got a 6630 on a Orange (UK) last november and about January I changed the Pay As You Go sim card to another Orange PAYG sim. Great, no problems, it all worked fine.
Now the other day I got another Orange PAYG sim to take part in the 300 free texts offer and when I turned my phone off and then put the new sim it it says 'Lock code:' which I have never used before.
I tried the defaults (00000, 11111 & 12345) all of which didn't work. I tried putting my previous Orange PAYG sim in and it still wanted the Lock code. As far as I'm aware I have never put a lock code on my phone...
After speaking to Orange they said it wasn't a sim problem but a phone problem, so I spoke to Nokia and they said it was a sim problem. I went back and forth and eventually got told that it WAS a phone problem and as the default codes don't work I would have to get a Nokia engineer to look at it. I
I phoned my local Nokia engineer and he's trying to charge me 25 pounds!
I just want to know if there is a way of using my Nokia Phone cable (DKU-5 is it?) which connects to my pooter, to unlock it or override the unlock code? Or is there a master code of some sort?! Orrrr even some sort of flash software? (I've done my research :P ) PLEASE!
Any help it would be much appreciated!
