Use Nokia Software updater
It will reset your lock code to 12345.
Assuming there's an update available... there isn't always.

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.

Forgot lock code on find my iphone. I lost my phone a few weeks ago and when it seems that it can never be returned i login to my account and put a code using find my iphone

I Lost my phone at the office building with more than 10different company and thousands of employees. since no one returned the phone and the device was already turned off i tried logging in and use find my iphone to send a message. But after days since no one is returning it i tried putting passcode on lock mode... And who would have thought that after a week someone will call me and told me that she will return the phone. But unfortunately i forgot the lock code so i cant use it. I dont want to restore it since my photos and videos are not sync to my itunes. if only theres a way that it would only just require my apple id and not the 4 digit code

There's no way to unlock it without restoring it.

N97 Mini - Phone Data Lost when Lock Code is chang...

Hi,
I have changed the 'Lock Code' of my N97 mini under Settings>Phone>Phone Management> Security Settings> Phone and SIM Card> Lock Code. And to my surprise, after I changed the Lock Code, I found that all my contacts, messages and notes are lost. But Photos/Videos/Recorded files are available. I have tried all the ways but could not see the contacts/messages/notes/calendar entries. Unfortunately I donot have a back up of the data. Is there a way to restore the contacts/messages/notes on the phone?

That won't work... reason being is you need the following requirements for the iPhone 4.

Lost my N8 Lock Code !

yes as my topic says i lost my nokia n8 lock code >.> but i dont need to hard rest it , is there any another way to unlock it pls?

The procedure itself is simple and does not take long but you will need to contact the care point and ask them because they may have a wait list. The care point in Ireland will do it for you while you wait if you are willing to pay €20 extra.

Just to ad a little.
The deafult one should be:12345.
If you've input your own code which you cannot remember:
You have to visit your nearest Nokia care point to get that sorted out. You cannot do it your self. Click here to get your nearest Nokia care point: http://europe.nokia.com/support/repair-and-recycle/repair/care-points
Be sure to bring a proof of ownership with you, to show that the phone actually is yours, and not someone elses which youre trying to unlock to use yourself.
Cheers!

Hi,
I just configured a new exchange mail account. Prior to that I have configured a my previous firm mail exchange. I forgot the passcode. After setting up new account it asked for the lock code and i tried many time which reulted in data loss. I lost all my data in the phone and also I am not able to access my memory card.

Can some one guide me if there is any possibility to access my data on the memory card?
Thanks in advance!

How do you restore a ipod touch 4th generation that you do not have to lock code too?

Hey guys,
I need some help.. my little brother got a ipod touch for christmas last year. He lost it sometime this year, and i found it the other day. When he lost it, it had a lock code on it, and now he can't remember the lock code. Itunes wont let me restore it without the lock code. This is a troublem because we can't do anything with the ipod. If someone knows how to unlock the ipod without the lock code or the serial number being needed that would help a lot. He also doesn't have the serial number because when he got the box he threw it away, and there are too many scratches on the back of the ipod to recover the serial number. Pleasae help.

Type "unable to restore" into the search bar at the top of this page by Support and read the resulting help article.

Rebooting N* and ask for a lock code??? Need help ...

Hi, I have done a hard reset and everything works great - very responsive phone.
BUT, every time when I reboot the phone the N8 will display a Lock Code screen???
I can enter anything and it will come up with a code error and then the phone works fine.
I am lost....
Can I disable the message?

Its wierd that it works OK after giving code error...If you have not set any code of your own try with 12345 and see if its asking again on re-boot..
Else try a Factory Reset..
Menu >Settings and Phone > Phone management > Factory> Restore...followed by above code when asked..
