  • Thanks

    just so i'm sure on this - when i put my O2 sim card in it says enter restriction code - that's where i put the above in?

    Im sure that sounds stupid, but just want to check im doing the right thing!

    Unlock Instructions:

    1. Only try the supplied code once

    2. Take out the SIM card from the phone.

    3. Type in code

    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 unless 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 get an error message make a note and reply again with that error

    code.



    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.

  • Hi

    If i take the sim card out i just get a message to insert sim card?

    Shall i put it back in? Although it says 6230 on the back, im thinking maybe it might be the 6230i?

    no, you ignore the message and just enter the code

    if it is a 6230i or a very late 6230 then the phone will just sit there when you enter the code and do nothing...

    then you would put the sim card in to enter the code

    you don't press the green call button...just enter the code until you reach the last # and then the phone should reboot...if it just sits there and does nothing then put the sim card from ANOTHER network in the phone and then when it asks you to enter a restriction code just enter the code I've given and the phone should say restriction off
