I bought my T68 second hand, and some how I have locked it and it required me to enter the code the previous owner set to the mobile.
I no longer have the old owners number and haven't a clue wht the code would be. I there anyway I can un-lock the mbile or reset it with a code?

Replies would be welcome!!

But what if it is a code set by the previous owner?

Then you will have to turn it into a service provider.

Isn't there a way to reset it?

No, it's impossible. Only a service provider can do it if you have lost your code. It's part of the idea to protect it when stolen.

But I bought the phone second hand and sim free, and the previous owner was using a different service provider!!

It doesn't help since that's the way the phone is programmed. The user cannot reset the code himself - only the service provider can do it.

If it is locked because you use a different network you will have to pay to have the phone unlocked (and it must also be some kind of a time delay before it can be done, for example 12 months from the purchasing date).

Did you try 0000 or 1234? If it didn't work the former user has changed the code.

It is un locked to any network, they used Voda, I am using BT Cel.
It has just locked me from accessing the phone? So stupid ah?
