    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
