A question about : Free Unlock codes for Nokia Phones 6 (U.K. Networks Only)
We are starting a new thread as the old one was getting a bit long to read.
There are sites where you can do this for free online if you are happy to do it that way, please not that both these sites do not currently produce correct codes for the 1100, 1110,1600 + some other models on the Virgin, Tesco , Easymobile and T-mobile Networks
https://www.trycktill.com/eng/unlock_swe.asp ( just click on the English flag
to get the site in english )
download a free standalone software version, you pick the model of phone and it sets it up for you .( beware though, there are some models with multiple settings now that this calc cannot cope with)
https://www.download.com/NokiaFREE-u...j=dl&!!!!!button
there is a newer version just released (28/12/05) which is available here
https://nokiafree.org/forums/t78427/h/s.html
if you have problems downloading that then try this new one
https://www.download.com/WorldUnlock-...-10457916.html
PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE IS NOW A SOFTWARE WAY TO UNLOCK THE NOKIA but still no free codes !! (see software solution below ) Nokia 3250,Nokia 6125,Nokia 6131,Nokia 6270, Nokia 6280,Nokia 6630,Nokia 6680,Nokia 6681,Nokia 6682,Nokia 7370, Nokia E60,Nokia N70,Nokia N71,Nokia N80,Nokia N90,Nokia N91, Nokia 3250,Nokia 6125,Nokia 6131,Nokia 6270,Nokia E50,Nokia E61,Nokia E62 ,Nokia N72,Nokia N73,Nokia N92,Nokia N93,Nokia 6126,Nokia 6136, Nokia 6233,Nokia 6234,Nokia 5500 ,the only way to get it unlocked is to pay the Network ! . Any site that claims to unlock these is lying !! . The only equipment available at this time repairs the software on the phone, it cannot unlock it ( info still correct 13th May 2007 ). 3 will now unlock your phone for £15 if you are in the LAST month of your contract with them.Other Networks will now unlock the above on their Network for about £20-30.
thanks to Dejan (THE original Nokia code man !!) for the following software unlock solution for the BB5 type phones listed here

this is a DKU5 cable (you may already have one with the phone, it's the USB cable)

There are also now a new batch of unlockable phones coming out , the Nokia 2310, 2610, 1112 and some of the later 1600's all use a method of lock that we cannot do for free at this time. These are now unlockable by using service equipment at a market stall etc
user akabee has sent me the following but i have not tried this:-
Just a quick message to say the Orange unlock method does work ok.I have done it with 2 phones from ebay(N70 & N73).I had to wait 3 days for code to arrive through the post.Orange asked where I had purchased the phone from and the name of the seller but other than that no problems.
1.) buy phone
2.) buy Orange sim (£1 online)
3.) register imei with sim by calling 08000790006
4.) wait for phone to activate
5.) call orange on 450
6.) Request unlock code
7.) upload £20 to prepaid balance
8.) Wait few days for code
Your IMEI number is obtained by entering *#06# into the phone
You need to enter the Network that the phone is locked to not the one you wish to use.
As a rule the code ending in +7# is the one to use in the U.K. if that one does not work then try the one ending +1#
You only get 5 attempts to unlock by code so if you get stuck please ask for help !! (it's not the end of the world if you use up your 5 tries, the phone will still work and can be unlocked by a shop/market or boot stallholder with the correct equipment for about £10)
if you feel unsure about getting the correct code then please feel free to send a private message to either myself or user Drahcir (just click on our names on the left of our posts to get the drop down menu with that option.
Unlock Instructions:
1. Only try the supplied code once
2. Take out the SIM card from the phone.(unless it is a Nokia 6230i, you need to put a sim card from another Network in that one before you enter the code...Drahcir reminds me !!)
3.Type in the generated code in the phone
(E.g) #pw+123456789101112+1#
the phone will then normally reboot itself and come back on at which point it is unlocked. Try with a simcard from another network and it should accept it.
You may be asked for the security code which is 12345 (or sometimes 00000) uless you changed it or PIN code if the sim card itself has a security code(normally a 4 digit code supplied with the sim card) .If you enter the wrong Sim PIN 10 times you will be asked for a PUK code which you need to get from the Network.
IF you cannot remember your security code this can be reset by a shop/market or boot stallholder with the correct equipment for about £5 to £10
Further Informational Instruction:
1. To show p in the phones display - just press * three times within two seconds.
2. To show w in the phones display - just press * four times within two seconds.
3. To show + in the phones display - just press * twice within two seconds.

***Edit by Board Guide, there is a closed thread here regarding the unlocking of other manufacturers' phones***
##### PLEASE DO NOT POST REQUESTS TO UNLOCK OTHER MAKES OF MOBILES IN THIS THREAD...IF IT IS NOT LISTED IN THE THREAD ABOVE THEN YOUR PHONE NEEDS TO BE UNLOCKED IN A SHOP BY CABLE AND SERVICE EQUIPMENT FOR ABOUT £10 ##############

- for those who posted in the old thread for codes, please look here
https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/....html?t=290408 - A few stats regarding the unlocking threads on MSE.
The first thread had 576 posts and 34087 views plus there was an original thread which was lost in the transfer to the new forums nearly two years ago. Since I asked Browntoa and drahcir to start the current format of the unlocking threads these are the statistics.
Thread 1 had 1143 posts and 146701 views
Thread 2 had 1264 posts and 70294 views

This means an incredible number of MSE users have been helped mainly by Browntoa, drahcir (Richard if you can read backwards!) and baldhead along with other MSE users and for this they deserve a huge thank you!
Please take the time to click their thanks button when they have helped you. - another reason we decided to start a new one was because Edilass broke the old one ....lol
- I have a Nokia 6111 on Orange
IMEI number is 359364005086886
Just tried #pw+936622051513460+7#
and #pw+3044665224311407+1#
which I got from www.unlockitfree.com
Neither worked
Might it be already unlocked? I don't have another network sim to try. - Dear Browntoa, firstly thankyou re 6230i earlier today.
I have my other 6230i on Orange that I earlier tried to unlock via links but so far it has not worked. I have put in four codes started at the 7th, then 1st, followed by the 5th code. I then attempted using a different sim card and used the 7th code still no luck! :-(
Nokia 6230i is connected to Orange and the IMEI code is358368001948503
Please let me know if it is permanantely restricted or if I can place a final code, many thanks for any assistance. - Thanks, Browntoa for the code. Still no joy.
Could it be that the phone is already unlocked? - Dear Browntoa,
thanks for the code but it didn't work, I have now tried 5 times and it is now displaying phone restricted, never mind. I believe I will have to trundle down to the shops! :-(
Thanks any how. - Hi,
