Unlocking/resetting the security code!

Today I tried to insert a sim into my old Nokia phone, it is an E52. it seems that I have left a setting on which requires security code if the sim is changed, but this phone is about 3 years old and I haven't used it for a long time so I cannot remember my security code.
The information in the phone such as SMS and phonebook is very important for me, so I don't want any solutions that resets the phone and wipes everything. the phone is not locked if I don't insert a sim, so I rather keep like this and not use it if there is no safe way to reset/change/unlock the security code. but I really need another phone right now, and I don't want to spend money if I could unlock this.
I have googled about this but I am not sure what is the safest way to unlock the phone while keeping my data. I found this website and it claims that it could unlock the phone but it doesn't look safe to me... what should I do? please help!

  • How to reset the security code on the Ipod?

    I locked the access to the volume control by inadvertently setting a security code, in the settings, and now I can not remember the code and i can not adjust the volume when plugging in to the car jack./.

    Your only option is to restore the iPod to factory settings in iTunes.

    how to reset my security code to standard if i forgot my security code
    Moderator's Note: The subject was edited as we have moved the post from an existing thread and created a new topic.

    Because Nokia Software Recovery Tool does not support the Nokia-Dead-USB-Mode for neither Symbian or a Nokia Series 40 phone, you cannot bypass a screen/keylock which is protected by the security code. However, if the phone does not give that lock-screen – is booting up and your able to select the USB mode on the phone – then you are able to apply the Nokia Software Recovery Tool – which resets the security code back to its initial state (no value set or 12345).

  • HT1620 What is the security code?

    What is the security code to install the latest iPhone update?

    The iOS upgrade is seeking whatever code you use to unlock your iPhone or iPad device; your device passcode or PIN or password you're using to secure your device.
    This to avoid somebody random poking buttons and unexpectedly upgrading your temporarily-unlocked device.
    If you've forgotten the PIN or password that you had originally configured to unlock your phone, there is a reset sequence.

  • I forgot the security code

    HI everyone
    I changed the security code of my 6300 mobile phone and till now i cant remember the code but i can remember my pin code and unfortunately my phone is locked now that means i cant reset the factory or somethin like that even i cant turn off the phone, can i unlock it or remove the security code without deleting the files because i have an old backup.
    any help please,

    I had the same problem with my classic. Im usually very good with codes etc. The code I used was one I have used on other phones for quite a few years. Ther is no way I could have forgotten it. I even have it written down on paper then suddenly one day it wasnt accepted !! So I know for a fact it must be a problem with the phone and no amount of trying numbers would fix it. In the end I trashed the phone. !! There was no way I was going to pay out good money to get Nokia fix it when it could happen again the next day! Its a matter of principal.

    Nokia default is 12345 unless changed by user but if forgotten you would need to visit Nokia Care facility with proof of purchase for it to be reset.

    Then choose Account Management;
    Press Continue;
    Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click Continue;

    Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would like your security/challenge questions reset;
    Click Send.
    You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
    Presently there appears to be problems on Apple's end, so it may be quite some time before they respond.
    Another user had success doing the following:
    I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
    Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
    on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" > tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
    Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select "done", in the upper right corner
    sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the security questions.
    At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security questions.
    It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
    Good Luck friends!

  • Nokia 6555b:how to do i detect the security code i...

    Pls can someøne tell me ön how to detect the security code in use 4 my nokia 6555b at&t. I forgot the code and i need to recover it fast.

    It is not possible to detect or modify the code in use if you do not know it.  It would be pointless having a code if people could do that!
    If you have forgotten the code your only option is to get it reset at a nokia care point.  They will need to see proof of ownership before they will carry out this procedure.
    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.
