    really need to know the network to do it by code
    try borrowing a few sims to try in it, so you can either rule some out or find one that works. if its got the original covers is there any logos?
    have you tried a sim in to check its not already unlocked? if so whats the msg on the screen.
    if your really stuck i can do it by cable if you pay the postage

    he can tell us which one he's tried ....should eliminate 1 network and if he can try a few friends sim cards till he finds one that it accepts and bingo...but eliminating 1 network gives you a fair chance of getting the code right with 3 tries !!

    Just a quick question.

    I bought a PAYG Orange Nokia 3220 last weekend and it was already unlocked so I can use my PAYG T-mobile sim card in it. Is it possible to 'unlock' it so I can switch service providers also? I'd like to be able to use the GPRS function at least once!

    TIA

    you can enter these manually in the "settings" part of the gprs,

    or you can go to the help section of T-Mobiles site

    https://secure.mouse2mobile.com/clients/tmobileFL/wap/3bearer.asp

    and it will send the settings to your phone, you will then just need to select that one from the list on your phone

    My phone is O2 and it definetely won't accept that.
    i'll have a scout around and see who else has got a different sim card.
