Hi!

I put a phone lock on my unlocked SE s710a
over the summer and forgot about it x_X;;;

So I changed providers and i couldn't use my phone because it was locked and i forgot the code...how do i fix this?? :confused:

thanks so much!!

ps.
I read about xs++ will it work for my s710a??

You have to get unlock code again and pay again...I think it is only one way to do that... Or try to find somwhere meybe You saved them in the organizer...

[silverhana]

is there a program/software that allows you to reset the code back to 0000/default??

[interferej]

try something but You have to be carefull!!!:cool:

When you unlock your phone via <**< menu you need to enter a valid unlock code. If you enter wrong codes repeatedly the numbers above will decrement one by one until reach zero(?) and your phone will be blocked:D.


You can unlock for free by a patch, but if you reflash your phone, you need to apply the patch again. Here is a thread about unlocking phones by patch: http://www.topsony.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4652

interfej: you missed the point. He's got a problem with the PHONE lock that he set himself, not with sim/netlock.

silverhana: S710 is DB2020, isn't it?
Just try to connect it to XS++, go to the "GDFS" tab and press "Phone Lock".

[silverhana]

actually,
i have no idea if it is db2020??
how do i find out?
also i dont have the data cable, so is there any other way aside from xs++?

thanks so much :D

You'll definitely need a data cable.

db2010/db2012:

J300, D750, K300, K310, K320, K500, K510, K600, K700, K750, S700, W200, W300, W550, W600, W700, W800, W810, Z520, Z525, Z530, Z550, Z558

does s710a still fall under the s700 category?
and... does xs++ support db2010/db2012 :D

[ts013]

No, I found out now, the S710 is DB2000, thought it was never though.
XS++ can read out the Usercode.
If your phone would have been on DB2020 XS++ just could reset the Code.

XS++ does support 2000/10/12/20

Have a look at the tutorials section if you're interested in XS++.

have u got a USB cable which came with the phone? if yes, u can use XS++ and read the code if you have forgotten and then chage it back to 0000 by going to security menu...
