6230 - Changing SIM to PAYG by Davey
My Orange contract is expiring tomorrow and I'm giving my girlfriend my Nokia 6230 phone from the contract. She uses an O2 PAYG SIM card and when I tried to put her SIM into my phone it said something like "Phone restricted - Enter Security Code". Unfortunately I have no idea what my security code is (I tried all my usual four digit codes without success). I have a few questions:

Secuity Code by Oli
Hi, I have a Nk6230 but have forgotten my security code. I know in the old days, LOGOMANAGER used to be able to read them. Is this still the case? I have a data cable. If it can't - is there a program that can? TIA Oli

Sharp GX10i on Orange by The CQMMAN
Hello, I have a personal phone (vodafone) and a work phone (orange). I can get a cheap upgrade to the GX10i from Voda and want to use it on Orange. Apartently there is a £20 charge from Vodafone to unlock it. Does anyone know if it will work OK on Orange and still(?) allow WAP browsing, picture messaging etc on Orange? I presume picture messages can now be sent between networks?

texting from the computer by chartsoft
Hi Does anyone know if any of the uk phone companies off the chance of sending texts from the computer? My organisation needs to send regular texts to existing clients from the computer with replies coming to our mobile phone so we need to buy a contract where our texting quota can be used from the computer, via the internet. Thanking you in anticipation.

E313 Unlock Problems by SteveH
Managed to unlock my E313 so I can use it with my O2 online PAYG SIM. Has anyone out there sucessfully swapped back to using the Three USIM card? I go through the unlock procedure with it, but when I try and do _anything_ it just tells me that the 'application is unavailable' or similar. Argh! - been trying to sort this for an hour now.

Recommendations for phone unlocker / flasher by AMO
I am looking for a cheap solution for casual phone unlocking and flashing. Is there any particular recommendation? Mainly I want to reflash a Nokia 7600. I assume that this will get around the problem of too many attempts to enter the unlock code. There appear to be a lot of products on the market, but I can't seem to find a forum that has any threads regarding which unlocker(s)/flashers(s)...

Bad move? by Odie Ferrous

Unlock Nokia 3330 by ©®
Friend wants me to unlock his old 3330 Orange phone. I have the parallel cable and dongle connectors. I tried Rolis 477 but when it says "Switch on phone shortly" nothing happens. I am running it under 98 compatibility with XP. Any other program I can use that works? Funnily enough, I have never been able to unlock the 3330 or 3310s! But the other dongles seem to be okay on others e.g....

Phone unlocking by global_assassin@yahoo.co.uk
Are there any known problems that can occur after having a phone unlocked? I recently purchased a new phone and was considering having it unlocked by a guy who does this type of thing for a living.
