    Yes, just post the IMEI in the unlock thread

    You need special equipment to flash the 6230i which will cost several hundred Euro, so you would be better having someone flash it for you, normal cost would be around €20

    wow just checked the price on voda €189 for RTG 6230i

    or €119 on o2 for same with free bluetooth headset.


    or €177 sim free on expansys!


    i assume that the 6230i on o2 can be unlocked also..

    i would prefer to be able to flash any nokia phone myself, can you get genuine hardware , (NOKIA) to do this or is it 3rd party cracked/hacked firmware files that you use?

    i know a JAF box would do this, but what else do i need along with the JAF box?

    cheers

    Yes can be unlocked, no matter what network is on it.

    A Nokia Service Centre will probably flash it with the latest generic firmware for you; to flash it yourself you will need one of the flashing boxes, a 6230i fbus cable and access to flash files. Also if you haven't done it yourself before you would be better going to a service centre or a third party shop

    Double checked codes and they are correct, perhaps check your IMEI ?

    Enter *#06# to display on screen in case different from stick on back.

    Otherwise it will need to be unlocked via hardware, where are you located?

    is it possible to get the code to unlock a Nokia 6680 locked to Vodafone UK to work on Vodafone Ireland?

    cheers

    will post IMEI if its possible.

    Nokia 6680 can only be unlocked by the network who provided the phone.

    The IMEI that I posted is correct and none of these codes work so I contact Vf Australia and they give me a code, but it seems I only have three attempts with this so theirs wont work either.

    What was the code they gave you?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,652 ✭✭✭Nolimits


    I know this could have been asked previously, but this thread is 143 pages ;).

    How long do I have to have a phone before vodafone (or anyone else) would unlock it for me.

    Thanks for any help


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 902 ✭✭✭BreadBoard


    Spend €130 on the acc, and you'll get the code.

    What's the phone model and IMEI and I'll tell you if I can do it for you ?


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


    @Nolimits

    €130 for Voda/Met, €150 for o2 (prepay)
    Just ring them if on Postpay, no limits.

    As for 3, good luck!

    Actually, im looking to change to three, I was looking at their phones but there isnt a large selection so I was thinking of just buying a new vodafone phone and then changing to three with it.

    It would have to support 3G.

    Is it possible to unlock the Nokia 6070 remotely? I saw a company on the net doing it for €6.99, unlock123.com I reckon. Would you go for that? Besides, if remote unlocking is possible, why is it not free for this model, like for many others?

    Post up the phone details;

    IMEI (press *#06#).
    Country it's locked on.
    Network it's locked on.

    I'd rather send these details directly to the person who's going to unlock. Are you doing it, BreadBoard?
