    Hi! Please can someone help me, I have an old Nokia 6680 on pay as you go with Orange & I am switching network THIS friday.

    I have just found out the handset is locked. Can anyone please help me get this unlocked? I have tried some codes with no luck. I have the necessary cable to use.

    The IMEI is 357062000495423
    Model: Nokia 6680.

    Fingers crossed someone can help me!

    Cheers,

    Tim.:eek:
    There is software on the forum which you can download to unlock it, otherwise take it to a market/pro unlocker.

    I'm afraid it's a BB5 phone, so no remote codes. You will have contact your network provider, or pro unlocker here. If your software version is in double fiquers, it's a SL3 so it will cost you more than a normal BB5 unlock. Press *#0000# to find out.
