Unlock Nokia 3310.

I have tried to unlock a Nokia 3310, locked to Tesco, using a code from
unlock.nokiafree.org which appears to have worked because the specified
response ie "Sim restriction off" was shown on the screen.

However despite this the phone will not accept a current vodafone sim saying "sim card not accepted" suggesting it has not unlocked.

Has anyone any ideas why this happens?

I would appreciate any help.
Brijac.

    as petermann3 says, a lock is still on
    make sure you put codes 1 & 2 in

    Many thanks,

    to both petermann3 and drahcir, following your advice I think you've cracked it.

    I wondered what that second code was for. All the signs now are that it is unlocked.

    Cheers.
