MODERATOR'S NOTE: We have edited your post. Please refrain from posting numerous characters. Posting with a brief and concise concern would be enough to gather solution.

There is no way to retrieve your security code if you have forgotten it.
Its down to the fact that is a security function, and would be useless if anyone could simply override it.
The only people who can reset this for you would be a Nokia Care point.
You will have to pay for the service, as it is not a warranty fault.
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

Reset Nokia 6300 lock code

i forgot my nokia 6300 lock code.
I even dont know how to get my phone IMEI Code
pls help me to break the code

The default code is 12345, unless you changed this and have forgotten it. This means you will have to visit a local Nokia Care point to get your phone unlocked.
You can get your IMEI code by checking the abck of yoru phone under the battery and on the box the phone came in.

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.

Nokia 8860 lock code ??

I have had a bit of a shocker, a few months back i entered in a lock code on my phone which locks the phone after a certain amount of time. I got annoyed with this so disabled the function. But now i want to re-use this function but have carlessly forgotten the lockcode.
Does any body know how I can reset this code without knowing the code ???
Many Thanks

The default is 12345. If it was changed, and is now forgotten, help is as near as the closest Nokia service/repair center:

Nokia n96 - lock code

Ok here it goes, i want to restore my phone to factory settings but when i do, it asks me for a lock code an i dont have a clue where to get this, could anyone help me pelase.

Sorry but we can't help.
If Movistar has changed the security code from the default 12345 then Movistar are the people you should be contacting.
Are you sure it's not you who've changed the security code?
Try doing a hard reset. The end result is the same and it might reset the security code as well (but don't count on it). Switch the phone off. Press the green "call" key and 3 and *. Keep these buttons pressed down while switching the phone on and maintain pressure on them until the phone shows signs of life such as the region selection screen or the "handshake" logo.
As a last resort you can take the phone with proof of purchase (so they know that it is really your phone and not one you "found") along to your nearest Nokia Care Point and ask them to reset the security code for you. This might result in the phone being reformatted but that's what you want anyway if you're trying to do a soft reset.

Nokia n96 lock code problem

I forget my master reset code so can't reset my nokia n96 & also can't use any mamory card.Whn i put in any mamory card thn phone asking for lock code but i 4get tht...I updte my firmware but still its not fixed...So plz some1 help me...Thnx

If you have changed the code from the standard 12345 then there isn't a way to recover the code.
You could try the hard reset (hold down the *, 3 and green keys whilst the phone is switched on until at least the handshake logo), or have the phone flashed at a Nokia service point. Either way, the phone will be completely wiped so you need to back up important data like contacts and messages first.

Nokia 5700 Lock Code Problems

Hi All
This is what I do.
Menu - Settings - Phone Settings - General - Security - Phone and Sim - Lock Code
When I select Lock Code it asks me to enter the Lock Code so I enter ANY number over 5 digits, it asks for a new lock code so I enter 67890 (5 digits), Asks to verify so I re-enter it correctly and I get a code error.
If I repeat this process 5 times it says I've entered the Lock code incorrectly and can't do it again for 5 minutes.
It also asks for this code when I attempt to reset the phone to which I enter 12345 and it errors, plus it asks for the lock code when I try to set up a timed phone lock.
If I enter any 4 digit code it just asks for Lock Code again.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks

I too attempted to take it to a Nokia Service Centre, who reflashed it but to no avail.
I then took it to an independant mobile repair centre and he was able to resolve the problem.
He advised that the lock code had been changed and they were able to read it (giving me the old code which I didn't recognise) and then resetting it to 0000.
I would have thought the NSC reflash would have resolved this.

@artjoms23
How about going to Menu > Tools > Settings > General > Security > Phone and SIM > scroll down to Phone autolock period = None - thinks it asks for your lock code again before allowing you to change.

Remote lock code forgotten

How can I recover a remote lock code?
My gmail account was hacked and they used iCloud to wipe my new MacBook pro.

Hmm, no one else brave enough to touch this one it seems..... Ok i'll push further.
Av8tor, if you are indeed an innocent victim in all of this, I suggest that you take the computer to an AASP. After all, this is what you are SUPPOSED to know ahead of time before you allow your device to become locked
Only they are supposed to.... ahem... handle the situation after the lock.

Nokia 7373 - Security Code Forgotten

Hi,
I can't perform a master reset on my phone or delete contacts from the phone as I seem to have forgotten my security code (although I do still know my PIN so can access and use the phone). So far I have tried the following codes:
0000
1111
12345
and the one that was generated by my IMEI number from another website
...but each time I get a "Code Error" message. I phoned Orange and they told me that you can't change the Security Code yourself and that it must be 1111 or 12345 but obviously these don't work and Orange are wrong. Any help would be much appreciated as I want to give the phone to my sister as I've recently had an upgrade.
Thanks. Jeannie

The default security code is 12345. If that does not work then someone has changed it.
The ONLY way to reset this code is at a nokia care point. They may charge for the service and you may lose all data from the phones memory.
They will also need to see proof of purchase/ownership before they will do it.
Care points/service centres and repair info:
UK • Europe • Asia-Pacific • USA •
Canada • Middle East and Africa
Elsewhere: Click here, select your country, go to the support section, then select repair.

Nokia E61i Lock code

Hey.
Many years ago i bought nokia E61i and i left it to stay. Now i wanna use it but i can,t. I tried many things: 1. hard reset (1,*, Okey button and power button,) . I have allso tried mastercode. Maybe someone knows other options to get off the security code.

> the ONLY solution is to get the code reset at Nokia Care.
How does Nokia Care reset the code? Key in a special reset code, shortcut somewhere on the motherboard or send a reset command via USB? Or speak "I am Nokia" to the phone?? :-))

What can I do ???

-if my answer was the solution , so click accept as solution button
Started From Nokia 3310 , Now with Nokia N97 v.22.0.110 + N900 PR1.2

Try pulling out the battery first for at least 5 mins.
If it won't work, I cannot think of something else than bring it down to a Nokia care point with a proof of ownership.
If you bought it this week, you might wanna try to take it back to the store and get it replaced.
