    I emailed o2 with my imei number and asked them to send me the unlocking code for me Sony-Ericsson T630. They sent me an 8 digit code and these instructions:

    Power on the phone and enter pin code where necessary
    Press the nav key (joystick) left quickly
    The press the * (star) key twice (this is under the '7'key)
    Press the nav key (joystick) left quickly again
    'Unlock Network Lock' will appear on the screen, press the 'Yes' key and then enter the unlocking code.

    You need to ensure you have your 086 sim card in the phone while entering the codes.


    Okay trouble is when I press the joystick left it goes to write a new message. Tried pressing it right, down etc (it's a little sticky) but no avail. Anyone able to offer some guidance here as to how I can enter this code?

    Cheers

    I got this stupid guide for the nokia 3310, which said that typing
    #pw1234567890+1#
    would unlock my phone.
    I kept doing that, but it kept saying "locked" without changing it. After I'd tried a few times, I got "code error" and my phone rebooted. This now happens every time I try to use that code.

    Is there any way to enter the right code now? Any unlock code I use gives me "code error"...

    going changing to meteor so need to get it unlocked.

    i unlocked my friends 3510i there last week. try the last code, then the 1st, then the 5th then if none of them work give up and ask vodafone. if you've spent more than €127 (i think) in credit they're supposed to give you the unlock code.
    they'll lie to you saying stuff from it'll take a week to get the code to that part of the system is down. rest assured the code is on the screen right in front of them but they're told to mess you around. maybe you'll be lucky and get one of the good ones

    Can anyone unlock a Motorola V220?
    Ideally with a remote code?

    Cheers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,762 ✭✭✭WizZard


    [strike]How come places like GSM Solutions in town offer remote unlocking for them? I would rather give a few quid to a boardsie tbh... but if it's 'impossible' then I'll just go with them.[/strike]

    After talking with another guy with GSM Solutions they do not offer remote unlock! :mad:

    So, who can do it that's near enough to Dublin 4?

    Cheers ;)

    Need to unlock a Sony Ericsson K300i, locked to Orange UK, know it can only be done with a cable but don't have my own machine or way to get access to one where I am allowed to do it myself. Am in Dublin 7, prepared to travel and pay a decent sum to get it done, anyone help?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,762 ✭✭✭WizZard


    Just to say that Patrick called out to me and unlocked the V220 on the spot last night. Sound bloke.
    Cheers.

    this has got nothin to do with anything but does anyone out there no how to take off the cover of a nokia 6020? it is drivin me up the wall!:mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,553 ✭✭✭wolfman


    dont have one here, but these are an xpress on cover, so they are designed to be interchangeable?
    normally the back always locks the front in place, so pop the back off first and then try the front. genearlly, slide your nail underneath it at the joint and it will pop open


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20 michael_collins


    thanks wolf dude, but i tried that. yeah they definitely are interchangable covers, cause i just bought a new one from pissant vodafone shop. i can get the back off easy, but the front is impossible, i nearly broke it trying to get it off, anyone out there have nokia 6020? little help?:(

    Hi, am trying to unlock a 6230 thats locked to vodafone... seem to be having problems.. are these unlockable via unlocking codes?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,080 ✭✭✭✭Random


    http://unlock.nokiafree.org/ should do the job.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,389 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lenny


    I was trying that site, tried the 1st and 7th one.. didn't work
    someone said to me that the 6230's are a bit different to unlocks?
