hey guys
i have just had my phone unlocked from "3" (nokia 6630 3g):beer:
however i have forgot the security code -
anyone know how i can reset this back to the default which should be 12345 according to "3"

The handset is outside of warranty so if i wanted the code reset i would have to pay for it apparently....

ANY help would be aprreciated

thanks in advance

    I have seen the helpful people on the unlock thread give codes for this

    Also, there is now a calculator at http://www.trycktill.com/eng/ - see the 2nd paragraph down from the top

    Those codes are to unlock phones, not to reset the Security Code.

    Forgotten your Nokia security code? Click here
    you need the IMEI and it generates a long security code that enables you to reset the 5 figure one, for Nokia DCT4 phones

    according to the site it only generates codes for nokia DCT4 phones

    the nokia 6630 is a BB5 phone

    if the phone is in warranty they may do it free of charge

    I would give them a call to check
