Default Unlock 6230i

Hi

A friend has offered their redundant Nokia 6230i which is locked to
Vodafone. I have TMobile simm and need to unlock it.

I have downloaded several of the key generators (aka the Hollowman
type on Mobileburn.com/Unlockme.co.uk) but am confused as to whether
this is a DCT 3 or 4 phone???

These apps also list a choice of 3 types of firmware options... where
would I find what mine is? - NOT the IMEI nos, I have that..

I understand that you only get 5 attempts to enter a code... so far 2
have failed, so want to get it right in next 3 goes!

Thanks for any advice

Mark

Google is your friend.

It is DCT4 and you only need to enter lines #5 and #7.

Hi Steve,

I went to Unlockitfree and got some codes... just trying to tally up
what you briefly mentioned with the codes that were generated.

Sorry for seeming 'thick' but what did you mean by enter lines #5 and
#7??

.... there are two that end #5 and another #7... are these the two to
try then?

Many thanks

Mark

Personally I start with the #7 code and then #5
But if they don't work, STOP, as you only get 5 goes
before the phone then will need a dealer to unlock it.

Then try a different box code to generate alternative codes.
Ask around for which box code to try for a particular
model and network
