download a free standalone software version, you pick the model of phone and it sets it up for you .

PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE IS NO WAY TO UNLOCK THE NOKIA 6630+6680+7710+9500+9300+6620 , the only way to get it unlocked is to pay the Network ! . Any site that claims to unlock these is lying !! . The only equipment available at this time repairs the software on the phone, it cannot unlock it ( info still correct 07/10/05 )
Your IMEI number is obtained by entering *#06# into the phone
You need to enter the Network that the phone is locked to not the one you wish to use.
As a rule the code ending in +7# is the one to use in the U.K. if that one does not work then try the one ending +1#
You only get 5 attempts to unlock by code so if you get stuck please ask for help !! (it's not the end of the world if you use up your 5 tries, the phone will still work and can be unlocked by a shop/market or boot stallholder with the correct equipment for about £10)
if you feel unsure about getting the correct code then please feel free to send a private message to either myself or user Drahcir (just click on our names on the left of our posts to get the drop down menu with that option.
Unlock Instructions:
1. Only try the supplied code once
2. Take out the SIM card from the phone.(unless it is a Nokia 6230i, you need to put a sim card from another Network in that one before you enter the code...Drahcir reminds me !!)
3.Type in the generated code in the phone
(E.g) #pw+123456789101112+1#
the phone will then normally reboot itself and come back on at which point it is unlocked. Try with a simcard from another network and it should accept it.
You may be asked for the security code which is 12345 (or sometimes 00000) uless you changed it or "PIN code" if the sim card itself has a security code(normally a 4 digit code supplied with the sim card) .If you enter the wrong Sim PIN 10 times you will be asked for a PUK code which you need to get from the Network.
IF you cannot remember your security code this can be reset by a shop/market or boot stallholder with the correct equipment for about £5 to £10
Further Informational Instruction:
1. To show p in the phones display - just press * three times within two seconds.
2. To show w in the phones display - just press * four times within two seconds.
3. To show + in the phones display - just press * twice within two seconds.

I used this site for unlocking my old Nokias, but I have a friend with a newer model (3510i) and I understand that I need to use the DCT4 calculator, instead of the DCT3 one.
What's the GEN all about? And which one should I set it to? (New Griffin, asic6, etc).
Many thanks in advance,

PLEASE be kind, Browntoa!!!! I have read the threads (which are very very helpful) so I am very aware that unlocking the Nokia 6630 ain't easy... and has levels of complexity to it. Question is - is there any light at the end of the tunnel regarding this? Is it likely to be possible, and if so, will it be in months or years???0
