I tried to unlock my nokia 6500s so i could a sim card from a different service provider but a got the code wrong a few times due to wrong information. I have the correct code straight from vodafone now but a cant use it. Im told the phone would have to be sent away to fix this. Got any ideas? Cheers Jack

Your cell phone may be locked to a particular cell phone provider and in this case it needs to be unlocked to use with a different cell phone service provider. To get the security code/restriction code to unlock the cell phone from the current cell phone provider so you can use the SIM card with a different phone provider, Please click on this link and follow my instructions :- http://www.fixya.com/support/r4049238-unlock_cell_phone If your phone provider does not help you then these WEB sites it provides security codes for a small price. http://www.mobileunlockstore.com/?gclid=CKDb2_y2558CFSlJagodxBkDHw http://www.mobileunlocksolutions.com/ http://www.superunlockcodes.com http://unlockcellphonecode.com/

You can get the unlock code for your Nokia 6500S from www.unlocking4u.com/nokia-6500s/rs6wp9/ at affordable cost. Once you have unlocked your mobile it is free from network restriction. Here are the steps for unlocking a Nokia 6500S,
1 - Switch on your Nokia 6500S without any sim card.
2 - Don't bother as to what is displayed on your Nokia 6500S.
3 - Compose #pw+CODE+1#.
4 - The Nokia 6500S would then display the message "SIM Restriction Off" and will be unlocked!

Contact your local Network Provider brother

You can get the Unlock code from the Online Site.....

Sorry its a long list , but have included everything.Just pick out what you need... The default security code for Nokia is 12345.
SIM pin code:
This is a pin code that locks the sim card until you enter the correct code. This protects your account, even
if your sim is put into another handset. To reset it you need the PUK code...
Pin Unlock Code (PUK)
If you miss keyed (or forget) your SIM PIN code, and enter the wrong one 3-5 times in a row, the sim will lock up, and you'll need to enter the unlock code to release it. You should ask your Network Service Provider for this code when you need it. Don't try to guess it, because after a few wrong guesses, the SIM card will be permanently disabled. The PUK code was printed on the plastic card that your SIM card was attached to.
Phone Security Code:
This locks the handset, as opposed to the sim card. You can also set some handsets to only accept a "new" sim if the phone security code is entered.
Master Reset Code
Sometimes known as the Master Code, this allows you to unlock a handset if you have entered the Security
Code wrongly too many times.
Which is the one that you want?

Warning: Do not enter any wrong unlock unlock codes on your Nokia 6500S mobile phones. If you enter over a certain amount of wrong unlock codes on your mobile phone, your phone may get hard locked and sometimes become unusable.

The letter p appears if you press the button star(*) three times quickly
The letter w appears if you press the button star(*) four times quickly
The symbol + appears if you press the button star(*) two times quickly
The CODE you need to enter is the unique unlock code for your Nokia 6500S mobile phone

The PUK code is related to the SIM card, not to the phone. If the SIM card is different from the one originally provided with the phone the PUK code won't work.

When you lose the PUK code, the only way to retrieve the code is by calling the phone company that released the card inside the phone.

An alternative way to get rid of the PUK code is by using a different SIM card.
