I was just wondering, if you enter an incorrect lock code on the N900 it just states that the code is incorrect. Is there a maximum number of times that you can enter the lock code before the phone does something like wipe itself?
View 11 RepliesI have a nokia 6086, bought at Orange France. I have changed the security code after buying, using probably one of my usual code (I have a few ones). but I did not write it, because it was an evident usual one. a few month ago I flash a new version of the firmware with PC Suite update tool. I've restored the data with PC Suite backup tool. no problem.
(I now suspect the security code to be reset to 12345)
I've also asked my operator (orange.fr) the code to unlock the Phone and accept foreign SIM. it worked. No relation normaly. 3 weeks ago I've acquired an indonesian XL SIM, and suddenly I could only access the SIM content, not my phone names list. I try to confgure it to access the phone names and it refuses my usual code. I make a few test, then many combination. then manymany in case I've choosend a perverse code, or a default code like 00000 or 12345. It was emitting no unusual moaning, no lock. I've thus make many tests, and retries. that I've found on internet that the initial code is 12345 but it did not work.
I've read that after 5 fails I should wait 5 minutes. I've respected that constraint and make a few tests, but no better. I suspect the code to be reset to 12345 by the firmware update, but also that my phone is "locked" by my many attempts. officially after 5 minutes it should works but maybe there is a definitive long term lock in case of to many tries?
Is there a way to reset the timer/counter of failures, so I can test the security code? the most stupid is that I can still read my numbers with PC Suite, OVI, through bluetooth and the USB cable. I think about updating the firmware and restoring the current frmware, then restoring the data.

I received a txt message from vodafone back in june that said to restart the phone to receive updated vodafone sime menu service. I dont know if it worked because i'm not sure where the sim menu is on the n900 but i'm curious if this is what has introduced the menu options above.
I should mention at this point that when i was in the US earlier this year, i was able to stop my phone looking for a gsm signal and concentrate on wifi only. Now i can't seem to find an option to turn of gsm. When selecting the network from the phone menu, i only get Dual, 3G and GSM.i don't get the wifi option anymore, hence me asking if this operator lock has interfered with it.Has anyone else got this and if it wasn't vodaphone, what is this operator lock?
I've got a Nokia 5800.
Soon I made the update to v 31.0.101 (31.01.101.202.05).
The problem is that i cannot use now the lock code. I try 12345, because I did not change it never before. But the phone doesn't accept any lock code, it always say failure!
So, I cannot change or use the lock code of the phone.
[I did not try to use the lock code before the update, so I don't know if the problem was before too.]
[One strange thing: If I try another numbers differents of 12345, the fifth time the phone says wait 5 minutes; but if I try 12345, I can try it lots of times, never say wait 5 minutes]
[I suposse 12345 goes on being the right code, but the phone accept NO code]
I've forgotten the lock code on my 5800, is there anyway I can get it back or change the code?I would appreciate the help from you, thanks

I turned on Auto Lock for the 5530. It prompted me for my lock code so i used the default factory lock code 12345. That worked, but then it told me that "Lock Code Expired". Then a New Lock Code screen comes up. I entered a new code, lets say 123456. Confirmed the code. Then I get an error message saying "Must contain both letters and numbers". But the 5530 only allows me to enter numbers and symbol characters. There are no letters to enter. So I am totally locked out of my phone.
I tried a hard reset RED + GREEN + Photo buttons but that did not work.
