Nokia N95 8GB unlock code?

hi i have this nokia n95 8GB i bought from ebay and its got some lock code on it and i dont know what it is, neither does the seller how do i reset the whole phone without needing to have put the lock code in?

Updating the firmware on an N95-2 will reset the security code to 12345.
However, your original query wasn't that clear. Is it the phone's security code you're asking for or the unlock code that allows you to use SIM cards from networks other than the original one the phone was used on (so-called restriction code)? Only the original network can provide the restriction code.
Also make sure that it is in fact a genuine N95-2 that you have. There are countless fakes on sale on eBay.

  • Nokia N95 8GB network unlocking invalid error

    Hello
    I have the Nokia N95 8gb, and have had it on vodafone for nearly 18 months. I am changing network, they gave me an unlocking code. I have put this in and get a message "invalid operation"
    they warned in their email to me that I should not keep entering tge code as it could lock up entire phone, but have not told me what I can do.
    Can anyone help, Please

    If it is like my old N80 you will only get 3 attempts to unlock it, third time will lock the phone completely and make it useless, I tried twice and it failed both times, then not wanting to brick the phone on the third try i took the easier option went to ebay and bought a chip to fit under the sim, worked first time.

  • Nokia N95 8gb problems - freezing, fuzzy screen et...

    Ok so been using the Nokia N95 8gb phone for about a week now and noticed that there is a tendency for the phone to freeze for up to 10 seconds like when opening other things such as Inbox etc. The problems mainly occur when the phone is slid shut, then when resliding the phone open the phone freezes or sometimes screen stays black until battery is taken out!
    When the phone is slid shut sometimes the screen goes fuzzy in places aswell like a TV with no reception. The text and theme on the phone sometimes goes a dodgy colour aswell like a negative photo and sometimes even goes back to front and the wrong way round?? Anyone else had similar problems or knows what this is??

    Its unlikely to have the same issue after doing a software upgrade, it could be some application on your memory card or the simcard .
    You may try the steps below
    - A soft reset by keying in *#7780# when on standby - This will not delete any data but will restore all the settings back to default.
    If that does not help then you may wanna try doing a hard reset by keying in *#7370# when on standby - This will reformat the phone. DO NOT FORGET TO DO A BACK UP AS THIS WILL ERASE YOUR ENTIRE PHONE MEMORY.
    The security code by default is 12345
    Also would be best to reformat your memory card and sim cards well as there might be some applications in there which is causing your phone to lag.

  • Nokia n95 8gb problem

    HI i have a nokia n95 8gb and it enters in the gallery without me pressing any button.As soon as i unlock it it enters in the gallery.I can't even take a picture or enter the contacts because it kepps entering in the gallery at images and videoes.I tried updating the soft and resetting the phone but the problem persisted.What should i do?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The only thing I could think of is that the Key that's next to the shutter key, the one that has what looks like a Play key is pressed in.
    This key causes the Gallery to start and show the last picture taken. It may have malfunctioned.
    You would need to take it to a service point or repair technician to take a look at it.

  • Setting up email on Nokia n95 8gb

    Can anyone help with my problem. I have an ntl email account which I have set up on my nokia n95 8gb. I am on the vodafone network. I can send email no problem but I cannot receive them on my mobile. I have asked vodafone for help but got no where. They suggested I go to nokia website and use advance settings to configure my phone for ntl email to be set up which I have done. But because i still could't receive emails they then told me to take it to a vodafone store for them to look at which I did, they altered the settings but the problem not able to receive emails is still there. I keep getting asked for my user name and password over and over after I click ok. I have checked they are correct numerous times. Vodafone says its a problem that lies with the nokia handset and ntl !! If the ntl server isn't compatible with the handset how come I can send emails but not receive and how come nokia website gave me a code to configure my phone to set up ntl email using vodafone network. Any advice would be appreciated.
    Solved!

  • Nokia N95 8GB Album Art and Album Folders Issue

    I have been hunting for for a resolution for two issues with the N95 8GB Media Player all over the web.
    1. Adding artwork (CD Covers) to audio tracks (or albums) seems to be at best hit and miss. Most of the time it just does not work.
    2. Deleting an album delete all the tracks but deleting the album folder seems almost impossible.
    Well this weekend I decided to try to solve this and I think I may have hit upon a solution.
    Since so may people have the same problem I thought it worth repeating. I would stress this has not been exhaustively tested but it does work reliably so far.
    I am using Nokia Music Manager 2.0. The fix is simply to convert the files to AAC rather than to M4A (which is the default). After this simple change everythig worked find for me. I can add and delete albums from Nokia Music Manager 2.0 (don't forget to refresh on the phone afterwards) AND reliably add Album Artwork.
    So here is how I have been working.
    1. Set the conversion format to AAC. I have been using 'Ultra high' quality setting. Options Menu >> Setting >> Conversion Tab.
    2. Next put in a CD, select all the tracks and choose copy to my collection.
    3. While this is going on I find the artwork on the Web. A simple Google Image search with the album title and artists last name / band name seems pretty 100% to get the on the first page. Download image to My Documents / My Pictures.
    4. Once the CD Rip is complete they will all appear in My Collection. I select all the tracks in my collection for the album in question, and then right click on one of them and select Edit.
    5. I then attach the Album Artwork by clicking on the blue folder and choosing it from my, MY Pictures folder.
    6. Finally select Copy to Phone from the File Menu.
    This has worked for me so far 100% and I have done 20 or so albums.
    NOTES:
    To get Nokia Music Manager 2.0 I uninstalled the version of Nokia Phone Suite that came with my phone and went to
    http://europe.nokia.com/A4144905I (or seach Google for "nokia phone suite"
    I chose the N95 8GB downloaded and installed. At some point shortly after install Phone Suite informed me that there were updates available and Nokia Music Manager 2.0 was one of these.
    I was originaly using this and suffered all the problems you guys have. After searching the web and finding no solution I decided to do some experimenting.
    Hope all this helps.
    PS If you need to delete all your legacy album folders, this is the fix I found on this same site. You can do this at any time.
    1. Enable the option to be able to see Hidden Files and Folders in your Windows Explorer.
    2. Connect your n95 8gb to your computer and choose data transfer mode.
    3. Go to My COmputer >> Nokia Phone Browser >> Nokia N95 8GB >> Memory Card E:
    3. If you have selected Show Hidden Files and Folders (see 1) you should see a folder called Private.
    4. In the Private folder you need to delete the contednts of three folders
    \private\101FFC31 (mpxv1.mpd and pcv5.mpd)
    \private\101f8857\Cache
    \private\101ffca9
    In all the 3 folders delete all the files Not the FOLDER
    Next time you restart the music player it will rebuild the indexes without the deleted albums folders.
    Hope this helps someone. It restored my sanity.

    Album Art
    Basically there are two methods
    Method 1.
    You do it on the phone. Load the album art pictures to the memory card. (Must be JPEG NOT BMP)
    Load also the music files.
    Open Music application in the phone. Open an album then select Options->Album art then Options-> Add, browse for the picture and select Ok.
    Repeat for each ALBUM
    Method 2.
    You do it on the PC.
    Get a Tag editing software like Tag&Rename, WINAMP, etc.
    Edit the files Metadata to include Album Art picutres (again they should be jpeg and also they should be set as Cover Front).
    Transfer the files that have Album Art using File transfer (usb mass storage) don't use MTP or PC Suite as these methods may convert the files and Album Art will be lost.
    Or you can continue using your Method

  • Copy contacts between PC and Nokia N95 8GB without...

    Hello...
    I have Nokia N95 8GB.
    I have 300 contacts stored on my PC from previous phone which was Nokia N90. What I want to do is to copy my contacts from my PC to my Nokia. But without PC Suite, without any synchro, just to copy them like in windows explorer, copy folder and paste folder.
    Is this possible? I mean, I can do this, but don't know where to place them inside Nokia folder tree - I want them to be visible inside address book...
    Thanx!!!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I am not sure this will resolve your problem but you could try with this.
    1. Remove Previous phone plugins from Library/phone plugins (If any files are there)
    2. Delete files from User/Library/caches/
    3. Remove chaches from System/library/chaches
    4. Download and install iSync plugin from Nokia website
    Make sure you have installed all available updates from Apple using Software Update and your phone firmware is updated.

  • I like to know how to User a Nokia N95 8GB, as GPS...

    Hiya Everyone,
    I had download a great app called KISMAC Trunk for MAC OS X 10.5, within the app it has a GPS map, but i cannot work out how, by using my Nokia N95 8GB phone, as a GPS receiver, i can see that the N95 is getting singles from the satellites, but i would like to know if there is or is not, away for the GPS data to be able to be used by KISMAC software?
    I have tried loads of thing, but i cannot get the Phone and the MAC to used the GPS data
    Please can anyone shed any light how i could get a fix from my problem?
    Thanks
    Flouts 

    *nod@scoobyman*
    and i can report success with [ http://www.symarctic.com/beta/static.php?page=extgps_download ] 
    i haven't used it in a while now, but if i recall correctly i used this app on my N95-1, and something like gpsX on my Powerbook to receive the gps data.
    at the time i found these apps by searching for info on using my N95 as a GPS for google earth.  i'd bet searching for info re: google earth will turn up more results than searching for info re: kismac (one is a bit more socially acceptable than the other).
    goodluck,
    -bit 
    N95-1 ---> N97-NAM ---> N900 ---> E7-00 + N900 (I use them both)
    (N95 was pretty good, N97 had potential but utterly failed to deliver, N900 is absurdly good. Those of you wondering, "should I try N900/Maemo/MeeGo"? The answer is a resounding YES)

  • Nokia N95 8GB and Windows 7 Home Premium Dutch

    :robotmad:Ladies and readers, I have, including a Nokia N95 8GB the desktop is new and draaid on windows home premium en when I Vista had worked with the Nokia everything is perfect. Now that I do I get windows 7 have not been contract more Nokia N95 8GB through the desktop computer get the notification that the software is not good, but which I have already removed and again installed but there is also clear the need to install software that it is old windows and vista so there is not to WINDOWS 7 I will take place this is a major disaster for Nokia that, over time inspeeld on a real upgrade for the desktop so that there is also normal contact with the Nokia N95 8GB can be made. why it is not on the openingspagina of Nokia if it would have been! We are nevertheless service to clients and should do so we get a good appliance bought and not a WHICH CANNOT comuniseren with the computer since Microsoft now Windows 7 sells and what I am therefore in the original state I can install by an approved fitter. Therefore, I would like to see that Nokia a link sends so that I can make both wireless contact and the mobiletelefoon can facilitate upgrading and data can uitwissellen. Otherwise, this after 3 pieces my last Nokia. vetaling Babylon

    Dude i think u just spoke french!
    Sorry to say that i didnt get a word that you said.
    I assume you have upgraded to windows 7 and are unable to use or install nokia pc suite.
    First of all it aint nokia's fault that windows 7 came after they had uploaded the setup.
    All you need to do is download the pc suite to you computer or laptop or whatever it is ... then right click on the setup and click compatibility mode nd just keep pressing next next next.
    Im sure your pc suite will be installed then and you will be able to use your computer to transfer everything to and from the phone..
    Have fun and lemme know if it worked.
    Chances of workin = 101% because im on windows 7 aswell

    It sounds like you have the "Say caller's name" active within profile settings.
    This will start the ringtone, pause, then a synthersized voice will pronounce the contacts name, then the ringtone will carry on again.
    Depending on the wording you have stored in the contact's details, determines what the little voice says.
