    Can my Nokia 6680 be unlocked or does it have this new Nokia Security on it . I presume checking around that it can not be unlocked remotely . Is there away of unlocking it with a cable as the phone runs on Series 60 .

    Hi
    The 6630 or the 6680 cannot be unlocked yet, either remotely or using cable.
    They belong to a new group of Nokia phones called BB5, which has taken over from the DCT4 group

    Yeah. They will definitely give you the code if you have spent that much with them.

    Siemens C65 cannot be unlocked remotely by IMEI.
    Only using special software and cables.

    Anyone know the GEN (aka BoxSN) code for Meteor (new 3100)?

    The 3100 is a DCT4 phone so I need the GEN code to generate the unlock string. It will be a 5 digit code like 32821 or some such.

    The mother in a fit of paranoia completely destroyed all codes on the packaging before putting it for recycling. :rolleyes:

    I'm about to buy a 6630 (RTG "upgrade") I spent a continuous fortune on my RTG, do they still give you the unlock code for free if you spent such a fortune?

    (I'm assuming that the 6630 will unlock on a code, and that it isin't a cable only unlock)

    Hi
    The 6680 cannot be unlocket yet along with the 6630
    The only way possible at the moment is to get it from the network itself and usually, this has to be either purchased or requires a top-up of anything from 125 euro to 200!

    Is it a big job to flash a nokia 6630 to remove vodafones sofware? Does flashing it remove the SIM locks?

    for quick relief of having to look at the Vodafone banding, if you haven't already, you can use the default Nokia theme rather than the Vodafone one, and swap out the default live! button on the standby screen...

    replacing the actual handset software with a default Nokia one can be done, ask wolfman

    fyi, unlocking is discussed in the: Mobile Unlocking - the *ONLY* place to post thread, with your specific question answered in this post

    @Bond-007
    Flashing the phone will not remove simlocks unfortunately. Like Brian said, a quick fix for the debranding is to switch the theme to Nokia and change the button, but flashing will enable a couple of different things. the main one people look for, is the ability to use MP3 tones as ringtones.

    Hi,

    i have two phones to unlock and am wondering if anyone can help me out. One is a 6100 on Meteor the other a t630 on O2. Both have since been upgraded and just want to give the phones on to someone who may use them.

    Can anybody help? are there any shops that do it?

    Thanks

    I have just got my Nokia 6630 unlocked. I contacted vodafone and they gave me the code. My question is what is the advantage of having your phone unlocked other than been able to use sim cards belonging to other networks. I still cant set mp3s as ringtones.

    Just got a Sharp GX10 from a mate. Can this be unlocked to accept O2? Its a Vodafone phone but my 6600 also had Vodafone printed on it and that was fairly easy to unlock.

    Can be easily unlocked, but only via cable.

    If you are in South Dublin or Wicklow can do it for you

    Well I'm in Dublin city centre and haven't got a car so don't think I'd get to Wicklow. Thanks for the offer anyway.

    I heard that if you spent over a certain amount on credit that you can get the phone unlocked by Vodafone. My mate would have spent hundreds on credit so is there any way Vodafone will unlock it?

    Cheers.
