K310i PERSONAL lock - unlock

Hello Folks. Glad to be at the "top spot" for S.E. ^_^
Hopefully you guys will be able to assist me;

I have a Sony ericsson k310i which I got from my cousin.

Its locked with the PERSONAL CODE lock - NOT a GSM network lock.

He got the phone from someone he cant contact - its a working phone, but I CANT guess the code - and I'd REALLY like to get this phone working.
If it works - I really wont be upgrading to anything any more ..posh for a while.

Is there any such this as a master code unlock for this phone?
Something I can type in to bypass this?

ANYTHING!!?? - Ive been searching around for SOOO long...

Please help
Thanks in advance.

on Setool you can read this code by using "Identify"

Oh, I see.
So you're saying that with this software (along with the use of a cable I presume) you can view the number...



But, may I ask - is the cable that is used with this software the typical USB cable available to customers (that is used to transfer multi-media files / use the mobile as a PC modem)?

Or is it some special... service-nature type of cable ?? :confused:

--EDIT---
and is this the ONLY way? :\

Use typical USB cable,install flash drivers and with XS++ you can reset phone
lock code to 0000

Use first 2 section in this tutorial XS++ 2.x Guide - Top Sony Forums but in second section look on picture-up,right - locks-phone lock

The phone should have came with a USB cable.

Ah! - I see.
That makes things a lot simpler then.
Thanks much gentle peeps. I'll see about buying the cable if I can source one at a store this side - and DL that program.
That is of course, assuming its free.

And these flash drivers - you mean for the use of the cable?

Thanks much

you need the flash driver for the cable to read the lock. The driver is usually bundled with the program download
