Nokia CDMA / TDMA: Programming Codes

[toeknee2203]

i bought my nokia6280 from a friend and changed security code to my own code but now wen i turn fone on it asks for security code, i enter it but then the fone switches off then on again and keeps asking for code again and same thing happens over again???

ok i have a cdma nokia 6015i. i want to wipe it of my personal data without redering it inoperable. a factory reset doesnt work. it resets the network settings, nothing else. what code should i be using? thnks

My Nokia 6015i is not letting me accept the changes. I can enter in *#7780# and it asks for the security code, which I know is 12345, but it always tells me it's invalid. I got into the master settings by using the code in the first post and confirmed that 12345 was the security code.

Anyone????

Hi, What is the code for Nok 1600 to find out if the phone is unlocked? I tried the various ones here without luck What key is used to get the + in some of the codes?

If you want to wipe your personal data without bricking the phone, you'll have to go into your Contacts Menu and manually erase your contacts one by one or by using the Delete All or Erase All function. Then #*639# and change your phone number to all zeros. If you get prompted for a code and don't know it (on the post-pay Verizon 6015i it's 000000), you won't be able to change your NAM.

Press the * key twice.

It's probably asking for the Master Subsidy Lock which is a 6 digit lock set by the provider and is different than the phone's security code.

So am I stuck unless I visit the provider?

***NOTE: I've decided to close this thread as many members may not understand what the "codes" mean here: they AREN'T the codes for UNLOCKING or REMOVING the restriction for your phones!!!

It's a friendly reminder for those of you regarding handset unlocking discussion in HowardForums.com. As we have sponsors / advertisers here to charge for unlocking service - for some models, topic as such is considered as a conflict of interest.

In case you have not read the RULES of HowardForums.com and the STICKY post in the Nokia forum, it has been clearly telling everyone that NO UNLOCKING topic is allowed:

As for some newer Nokia GSM phones like the N and E series models, they're BB5 generation Nokia model that can yet to be unlocked by 3rd party. The "free unlock code calc" floating on the net are designed for DCT-3 and DCT-4 generation models won't work w/ the newer models. Someone claims to have success on certain earlier BB5 models like 6680 by the Dejan Kaljevic's solution, but definitely not the newer ones such as N95.

As for the Nokia CDMA phones, "unlocking" means obtaining the SPC and/or XTKSL from your provider. But, still, you'll need the right PRL for the right provider in order to make it work properly. Also, some providers WON'T allow phones from elsewhere to be activated.

As for some Nokia-branded CDMA phones like 6315i, many are made by Pantech or other OEMs. They aren't running on Nokia OS, the codes used to access certain special menus/functions are different.
