Hi,

trying to unlock my phone and so far have been unable to find an unlocking code for this phone model. Any help please?

This is my serial number.

Thanks again.
Just have a little faith

    As far as I understand, the process needed to unlock the 6680 and the 6630 is much more involved that just supplying the IMEI number. You will have to get this unlocked from a shop since I think it requires reprogramming or some kind. Someone might be able to confirm this.

    Yes.

    It's got 3G software, so it needs reflashing. Get a shop to do this properly, as a bad flash can render the phone USELESS!

    The Nokia 6630/6680 can only be unlocked by the network.

    AFAIK you cant unlock the phone unless you return it to the network. They send you a nice bill for the privilege as well.
