E63-update firmware require lock code.

E63-1 after update to new firmware 500.12.009 success. when it restart and login to OS, it's require the lock code. but i type the code 12345 is code error.
i dont change the phone code from i buy this phone. so how can i find the correct code?
please help.

The default code is usually 12345 unless it was changed by either the network or the user. If it is changed by the networks then it should be on the label on the box. If you changed it and don;t remember it, the only way to reset it is to send it to a Nokia Care Point. You will need to bring proof of purchase with you.

Updating firmware on locked E61

I recently got an E61 as an Xmas gift and spent some time playing with various features. By the time I'd finished I'd setup wireless browsing/email via our home LAN and also sync'd all my contacts and calendar entries courtesy of Zyb.com from my previous handset. I also changed the default lock/security code to something I thought was more secure and configured the lock option on receipt of a particular SMS. I finally switched it off in the small hours and went to get some sleep. The next day, disaster! It wouldn't accept what I thought was the correct security/lock code. The PIN code was no problem, but without the lock code I was stuffed. After some googling I resigned myself to getting the firmware updated and took it in to a Nokia Service Centre. Now I'm no expert, but I'd think that updating the firmware should be pretty straightforward, especially for a service centre with the right equiment/tools etc. Imagine my surprise then when after checking back with the service centre, they told me that they'd been unable to update the firmware and needed to send the handset to their central repair facility. Is updating the firmware on a phone that's security locked really that challenging or are the service centre in question just being a bit dim?

no it will not

Nokia E63 update firmware

If you are very unlucky such as PC issue during device software update you can be left with a dead phone, although this has only happened to me on a couple of occasions over the last five years. It can easily be sorted out by Nokia Care facility, but can be a nuisance if it happens!
There are a couple of ways to avoid PC related issues while updating device software:
Only use a PC that is 100% stable. No unexplained lockups, self booting and the like. PCs with Windows XP or newer do not lock up ever under normal conditions, if the hardware is working properly and correct device drivers are installed.
If you live in a country with unreliable power grid, use a laptop with a full battery rather than a desktop PC. Even if your area has reliable power, do not upgrade during storms or anything that might disturb the power grid. Use a surge protector anyways.
Restart the PC before attempting a phone software update and don't run any extra programs in the background.
Remember that the phone also has to be fully charged before trying a firmware upgrade.
Of course something may still go wrong due to unexpected circumstances, but the above instructions will eliminate most problems with updating.

Smartphones: N70¹, N82, E50¹, 6220 Classic¹, 6710s Navigator¹, X6-00, N97 mini¹, 700¹, Asha 311¹, Lumia 710¹, Asha 503¹

E63 keeps asking lock code - cannot disable

Hi,
After installing, using and uninstalling the mail exchange application my e63 keeps asking the lock code. The mail application somehow demanded to use the lock code. Now I have checked the settings many times and I cannot disable it - I cannot disable or set the autolock period above 10 mins -> "unable to unlock phone".
Even restored factory settings but no go. Entering lock code every time I need my phone is annoying.
Any solutions?
BR,

Finally, I simple delete my Exchange mail box (also did a refresh of the services but don't know if it was mandatory). And my Lock Code parameters switchs itself automatically to my settings (No lock code) .
So, the Encrypt-Decrypt solution was not necessary for me. Too bad for Microsoft : I will never use Exchange util they fix this MAJOR bug because it's too annoying for me to have a lock on my phone every hour...

DB- cursor: DB_READ_COMMITTED, DB_READ_UNCOMMITTED and RM_RMW require locki

The following code fails, error message:

The flag DB_INIT_LOCK should initialize locking, shouldn't it?
Thank you very much

Hi Markus,
The database is not created within the environment. You'll need to create the database associating it with the environment:
status = db_create( &database, environment, 0 );
that is, the second parameter of the "db_create" call should be the environment handle:

E63 Lock Code Problem After Update

I recently checked for a firmware update for my E63. I got excited when i found out that there was an availabla one, the 510 .21 .010 and I immediately started the update process. Everything went ok but when i switched On the phone it asked me for the lock code after 3 or 4 seconds. I tried the default one , 12345 but it showed a code error message. I can't do excatly nothing but the weird thing is that buttons Calendar,Contacts and Mailbox work but i still can't do nothing else.The Home button does not work. It doesn't seem a normal behaviour.Could it be a bug? I read a lot of posts about this problem so this means I'm not the only one having this problem. Please help me. I really need my E63 back as it is my do-everything tool. Maybe a new firmware with this bug fixed would be best.
Thank You in advance

hello, you will need to contact your nearest Nokia Care with proof of purchase/ownership, for them to reset your security code.

Lost lock code after firmware update

Hi,
I recently updated my E66 firmware (i don't remember the versions now). The thing went ok, the phone is working... in general ok, except that: When I try to change something that requires the lock code. It don't recognize my old password. Now it showed me some error about 5 tries and it diapered before i could reed it all.
The phone is working, but I'm afraid that if it turns off I will be unable to power it on again.
Does any one know what that message was. And Is there a way I can get arraund to change the lock code, since the phone is working?
Thanks.
P.S. I can't get the phone to a Nokia Care Center because there's none In Uruguay, and even so, this phone isn't available in the region.
Solved!

On some phones the lock code is reset to the default 12345 when the firmware is updated. This is what must have happened with your phone.
However, since you have entered an incorrect lock code too many times in succession, the only way to unlock that now is for you to send the phone to a Nokia Care Point. There is no other way.
The phone shouldn't ask you for a security code when it starts, only for the PIN protecting your SIM. Some Eseries and Nseries phones, however, have a facility called "remote locking" whereby you can lock the phone by sending it an SMS with a code in it that you can define. If this function is activated then the phone does also ask for the security code when you switch it on.

Lock Code request after firmware update on E71

After I updated successful (message was displayed by software updater) my phone, it makes a restart.
And asked for the "Lock Code". I never used the lock code function and I never changed it before.
The default Lock Code "12345" mentioned within the documentation is not working.
Re-installation of the firmware is not working as I am unable to reinstall "PC Suite Support" due to the fact that I am not able to confirm the installation on my phone. I went to the Nokia shop and they told me they have to sent the cell phone in for repair and this can takes up to four weeks. This is totally unacceptable. Until today I was I fan of Nokia phones but this has changed dramatically.

Hi
I also experienced the same problem. Phone was working perfectly prior to Firmware Update.
I had never used or changed the lock code. Initially I thought everything was fine because the
Firmware Update was reported to have been a success.
I then went through the process of selecting language (English) and setting date and time.
However, after doing all this I was then asked for a Lock Code.
I was a little bemused but tried the default '12345'. This did not work.
I tried all the other usual defaults; '0000', '1111', '1234' etc, still no joy.
After a little swearing I decided to ring the Nokia help line. After explaining the problem I was advised to go to my nearest Care Centre. I was also told that if the cause of my problem was as a result of the 'faulty' firmware update then they should do it free of charge.
Off to the Care Centre then (30 mile round trip)!!!! They rigged it up to their 'kit' and confirmed that
the Lock Code had not been changed and was still set to '12345'. They could not access the phone
either. They now have my phone and are going to try and sort it and if they cannot sort it will be
sending off to Nokia. This should then be sorted under warranty (although I would argue the cause
of the problem is a glitch in the Firmware Update and not a fault with the phone).
Let's hope that when I get the phone back it will all be hunky dory!!!
It's also worth noting that even though I could not access the phone directly by using its own keys
I could use all the functions when rigged up to my computer through Nokia PC Suite. I could access
all contacts, messages, calendar etc. I was also able to send and receive SMS. If the phone was
locked then surely I shouldn't have been able to do this????
Hope the above sheds some light on your problem. Just be sure that you are not fobbed off by
either the help line or the 'techies' in the shop. At the end of the day if you have not messed about
with the lock code before the firmware update you should be able to get it sorted free of charge if
the phone is still under warranty. GOOD LUCK!!!!

I'm running OSX 10.9.2, when my system updated it required my Apple ID... When I provided it, it said that AppleID hadn't been used at the App Store... so now I'm locked out of my system... what do I do??

First, there are no PPC Macs that can run Snow Leopard or later. Did you buy your iMac used? Where did you get Mavericks in the first place? If it was installed by the seller, then you are not licesnsed to use his/her copy.
Do you know exactly what iMac model you have? If it's a post 2010 model you can do the following:
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
            if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer. You may then go to the App Store to download Mavericks using your Apple ID.
If you have a 2010 model you may require a special firmware upgrade before you can do the above: Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery.
If you have an earlier iMac then you must get Snow Leopard 10.6.8 installed by installing a version of Snow Leopard either included on the software restore discs or:
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.

The standard code is 12345 but if you changed this code and you forgot, there is only one way to solve the problem. Bring it in to a Nokia Care Center.

Lock code problem aftr updating

I have updated my e63 to 510.21.010 now its asking me d lock code while I switch on the phone. I wanna get completely get rid of this problem. Plse somebody help.

The default Nokia lock code is 12345 unless you have changed it yourself and forgotten it. If that's the case then you will have to visit a Nokia Care point to get it reset.
If the phone is asking for the SIM PIN then check with your SIM provider for the default PIN. If you have changed that one as well and have forgotten it then you can enter the wrong code until the SIM gets locked and unlock it with the PUK supplied with the SIM. This will reset the SIM PIN and you can enter a new PIN for that.

Firmware Password Lock, Managing Firmware Updates

I want to increase my data security beyond account password protection. (Ran FileVault previously but encountered a disaster - user account information became corrupted somehow. Password would be accepted but login denied with an error message but no code. Ouch.)
Firmware Password Lock looks to me like a good bump up in security (I know it's not in the same league as FileVault from experience). I'm thinking I'll have to settle for this less secure option.
Please help me to understand possible pitfalls beyond the obvious "retain the password".
Will Firmware updates continue to come in normally with Software Update? Please help. Tony

Thank you for helping with my security question. I have googled a bit. I have found examples of physical damage to computers (new mother board needed) because of failure to get firmware update before upgrading OS. In that case it was upgrade to OS10 from OS9. This doesn't directly apply to my case, never the less, it does cause me to pause.
Is it correct that if firmware password lock is enabled, firmware updates will load and install without unlocking firmware.
I'm not sure about this. a firmware update will always come with instructions and if the firmware password needs to be turned off to install it, this will be explicitly mentioned. as turning the firmware password off is very easy and firmware upgrades are very rare, this should not be a consideration IMO.
(sorry for asking again - just trying to be sure. Could not find a specific answer to this in apple support info.)
I did find this recommendation to check for and load firmware updates outside of Software Update.

Please tell me if this is recommended.
there is absolutely nothing wrong with downloading an update manually.
