Can't unlock N8, Security Code Error

Hi, 
I turned off my N8 Belle recently, turned it back on and it won't accept the security code, it just says "code error" when I type it.
What's going on? Now I can't unlock my phone to use it.
 I haven't forgotten the code, it's the same one I've been using on phones for years and I've tried defaults such as 1234, 12345, 0000, 00000000. 
Thanks, 
Peter

Don't know whether Post #5 here of any value http://forum.dailymobile.net/index.php?topic=64440.0 otherwise looks like visit to Nokia Care facility to reset lock code to default 12345 and possibly completely re-install device software looks likely.

    Hi Dhdhdharani,
    2 hours is too much. 10 minutes as suggested by Scoobyman will suffice. Removing the SIM card and the microSD card is not really necessary but OP can give it a try still.
    Cheers.

    Thats because you marked ur own post as an accepted solution  there was one poster who replied to your post here and finally said only Nokia care center can help you, even i am saying the same thing only Nokia care center can help you because
    3110 is not a S60 smartphone the reset codes available for s60 phones wont work on it and still ur problem is not clear "u still cant open security code" what do you mean by that
    If the phone says "code error" after entering the reset code ( default one or changed by you) nothing u could do with ur phone than taking a trip to NOKIA CARE CENTER and let them reset it back to the default one u may lose ur phone data in the process so back up all the stuff and proceed if u are going to NCC
    If a reply has solved your problem click Accept as solution button, doing it will help others know the solution. Thanks.

    No. Apple is not in the credit bossiness.
    You can create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

  • How can I unlock the security so I cane play a song on my Sonos system?

    I have a Sonos system that doesn’t play secret iTunes songs.
    How can I unlock the security from the iTunes songs, so I cane play a song on my Sonos system?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.
    If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • How  Can I unlock the restriction code on my ipad

    Hello I am trying to unlock the restriction code on my ipad but can't cuz I forgot the passcode

    You can't unlock the restriction code.
    You have to restore your iPad  as a new device and not from a backup.The backup will only load the forgotten passcode onto the device again. You will have to load all of your content onto the device so make sure that you have all content in iTunes as well - transfer purchases to iTunes on your computer.

    Restore using recovery mode if needed.

  • Safari can't display the security code

    I was trying to charge my international calls account online but I noticed that Safari was unable to show the security code in the web site:
    https://www.smslisto.es/en/login
    I couldn't get it to show up until I used a PC with Internet explorer.
    I tried to fool the website by going to the "develope" menu and choosing IE 10 as a user agent but that didn't work.
    Any way around it?

    Hi Claywd
    I think you can help me without my account. You can click on "forgot your password?" and you will see a question mark which is actually supposed to be a security code. Please let me know if you can take a look.

  • HT201209 where can i get my security code?

    where can i get my sec.code of my iPhone 4s?

    If you are getting a message about a security code then that usually refers to the 3 or 4 digit code on the credit card that you've linked to your iTunes account : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646

  • N96 security code error

    i changed the security code of my nokia n96 v 12.
    but i kept changing the code so frequently, tht now i dont remember which one o]i had put as the last one. i need help with this please.
    What's Worth Doing, Is Worth Doing Well!
    All "N-series" are incredible!

    Messing with the code is never a good idea. If you really can't remember your code then you have two options.
    1) Try a hard reset (procedure below) as on some models it resets the code.
    2) If that fails to reset it the ONLY option is to get it reset at a nokia care point. They may charge to do this and will need to see proof of ownership before doing so.
    Hard reset:
    1. Switch off the phone.
    2. Hold down the following three buttons: Green (the call answer button), * button, and '3' button.
    3. While holding these buttons, hold the power button for a second to switch on the phone.
    4. Release when the phone shows the nokia hands logo or shows other signs of life like the language selection screen.
    It may take a few attempts and very flexible fingers.
