Many Nokia phone users forgot their phone security code and might charge fee for service in order to regain back the code from phone store. Now here's a guide of how you can find back your Nokia phone security code by yourself. I've written this guide very long time ago on other website which is no longer updating anymore. So this guide will work on most older Nokia phones, especially BB5 type phone. Hope this guide helps and save you a few bucks. Now, let's start on how to regain back your forgotten security code.
Tools Required:
- Nemesis Service Suite (NSS)
- Nokia PC Suite
- Data cable
Regain Your Security Code Steps:
- Install Nokia PC Suite
- Install Nemesis Service Suite (NSS)
- Connect your phone to your PC with data cable. If the phone ask for connection mode, choose default mode or PC Suite mode (But don't open Nokia PC Suite).
- Open Nemesis Service Suite (NSS)
- Click scan for new devices button (on top right corner of NSS)
- Click Phone Info button
- Click Scan button
- Click Permanent Memory tab
- Click Read button
- It will read the permanent memory file and save it on the hard disk at following path.
C:\Program Files\NSS\Backup\pm\
.pm - Open the .pm file using Notepad
- Now scroll down until field [308] and on the 5th Record (5=), your security code is saved at there.
- For example, 5=31323334350000000000
- Just ignore the red colour font. So, 12345 is your security code.
If this guide doesn't work with your Nokia phone, follow this guide of how to reset security code to default. The Nokia default security code is 12345.
i can not reset its ask me for the security code that the owner befor put it and i dont know what it is any help plz?
ReplyDeleteHi Chadi, try reset the security code with try method.
ReplyDeletehttp://keyable.blogspot.com/2012/02/how-to-reset-nokia-security-code.html
It works for most of everyone.
This may well work only I can not connect my N80 to my laptop (I have a ca53 & DKU2) both result in device not recognized. If the phone is locked, it is not likely to solicit for connection mode?
ReplyDeleteYes unfortunately, it won't work on locked phone.
ReplyDeletehelp me 2 recover the lockcode for n97.i forgot it.
ReplyDeletehelp me for recovering my lockcodes but my phone is not lock.n97.help guys pls.
ReplyDeleteTry this if it doesn't work for you. Someone has successfully reset his Nokia N97.
ReplyDelete5=02010100000000002DF90100
ReplyDeletewhat iz my security code here?
The code you provided is under [309] which is not we are looking for.
ReplyDeleteIt must be in the part of [308].
Thanks you :D
ReplyDeleteGlad it help :)
ReplyDeleteBut there is no No 5= under [308]
ReplyDeleteWhich Nokia phone you are using? I'm afraid this method don't work on your phone.
ReplyDeleteYou can try reset the security code to default following the steps in this post: http://keyable.blogspot.com/2012/02/how-to-reset-nokia-security-code.html Hopefully it works since many comments claimed it works on their Nokia devices.
pls help to connect my nokia 2700 classic to ps in pc suite while it is unlocked
ReplyDeleteHi, what message did you get right after you connected the phone via USB cable? Make sure other Nokia software are closed.
ReplyDeleteUnlocked my phone..!! Well done Keyable..!!
ReplyDeleteInteresting! You're welcome.
ReplyDeletethanks a lot! love you guys
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. :)
ReplyDeletethanks for this post...it works perfectly!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the nice feedback.
ReplyDeleteThanks dude
ReplyDeleteIt's working..........
Glad it works for you.
ReplyDeleteiam not able to install
ReplyDeleteI just installed NSS. It works just fine. What error message did you get while trying to install?
ReplyDeleteUnlocked my phone..!! Well done Keyable..!!
ReplyDeletei dont find 5= ...
ReplyDeleteThnX a Ton.. It WorKeD !! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat about a phone that's already locked? I tried your method on an already locked Nokia 5610 (of which I forgot its security code), the phone won't connect in locked mode so the PC Suite can't find it.
ReplyDeleteIs there a work around for this?
what if keypad is locked with code and i m unable to select pc suite mode
ReplyDeleteThanks! Great Product!
ReplyDeleteIt will not work because NSS requires connection mode.
ReplyDeletewhat if keypad is locked with code and i m unable to select pc suite mode?
ReplyDeleteAny other method or software then? :(
ReplyDeleteSearch for how to flash the Nokia phone, that should solve the problem but I've no idea how to flash. Good luck on your findings.
ReplyDeleteIt says 'error' when I click 'scan' or 'read'. What should I do??
ReplyDeleteWhat is your phone model? Try use NSS pro to reset the security code.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately no, the NSS software needs PC Suite connectivity in order to work.
ReplyDeleteIt won't work for locked device as it requires the connection.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
ReplyDeleteAgree, it is.
ReplyDeletei have a nokia E7-00, and cant find '5=' under [308] ? any suggestions, i tried the alternative option which you have mentioned. neither one is working, frustrated
ReplyDeleteIt dont work to remove Restriction Code (i.e. NT LOCK) on nokia classic 2700. Any ideas please? mail to crapicrap at yahoo.
ReplyDeleteThere is a way to get the code with locked phone:
ReplyDeletefirst you have to find a resistor with between 7 and 10 kΩ (7'000 - 10'000 Ohm) (buy it in the internet or search in an old radio, printer, ...)
after this you have to take a look at your mobile phones battery.
you'll find a negative pole (-) and the BSI ( ).
after finding them you have to put one wire of the resistor at the negative pole and the other at the BSI.
then put the battery into the phone again and connect it via usb to your pc again.
then go on with point 4. of Lemon's tutorial.
In the end remove the resistor and be happy. :)
(i had to do this today too and it worked fine for me.) .
PS: the resistor is important to connect the phone to the pc, because it
will set it in the so called testmode or localmode (depends on
resistance). without this modes it won't connect, it's a precaution of
nokia.
Hope I could help you.
Lemon
maybe you can add this 'tutorial-part' to your tutorial for people that
have totally locked their phone and don't want to pay nokia much money
for something that they can do by themself.
Thank you for this interesting information. What was the phone you trying to put it on localmode? Does it works for all Nokia devices?
ReplyDeleteI'll give a thumbs up for your comment so that it stays on top the rest which should be visible to the readers. All credits to you.
Reset security code with NSS pro is the final solution I have.
ReplyDeleteBased on the feedback I got, it seems NSS software don't play well with the E series which is disappointing.
ReplyDeleteIt should work with all BB5-phones, maybe also for all other nokia phones. I had to do this with my nokia x3-02.
ReplyDeletebtw: there is a way to unlock older, non bb5 nokia phones. in the internet are some websites with mastercode generators, they can convert the imei of your phone to a securitycode that allways work for your phone. you can find the imei-code somewhere under the battery (15 letters/numbers).
hello, everything goes well and i get "PM backup saved to:
ReplyDeleteC:\Program Files\NSS\Backup\pm\myIMEI.pm but when i go to C:\Program Files\NSS\Backup\pm, i dont find the file !
it worked like magic.. so smooth... thank you very much.. great article..
ReplyDeleteit really work on my e63 thanks for the help. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats! I'm really glad to hear it works on Nokia E63.
ReplyDeleteHi @green_lemon:. I"m at the 12th step my problem is, there are no red colored numbers. Pls reply. thanks!
ReplyDeleteIf you can't find the 5th record (5=) in .pm file, try the other method HERE to reset your security code. Good luck.
ReplyDeletehi. i forgot to tell you that my phone is nokia 5800 xpressmusic. Will the new website you gave me will work on my phone? even if its not android os? thank you so much. :)
ReplyDeleteHi gurl, I can't confirm it because I didn't test with Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. I recommend you try this method because a reader claimed it works on his Nokia 5800 XM.
ReplyDeleteREALLY LOVE U GUYS ITS WORKING I MISS MA PHONE SINCE 3 MNTHS REALLY TNK U SO MUCH,HOPE FULLY U LL GET GUD SUCCESS.

ReplyDeletei want to lock the security lock on my Nokia phone but I forgot the code... now how to lock the security code plzzzzzzzzzzzzz help me plzzzzzzzzzz
ReplyDeletewhooooah!!! tnx it work
ReplyDeletethank you so much ............sanjay
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, it worked on my N82, i was able to unlock it using nss pro,, my N82 was not being detected after i did a hard reset, by pressing *3 and green button,, then the phone was detected, in nss pro, afterwards was able to read the unlock code and i am using a win 7 64bit, the file was saved in C:\Users\s\AppData\Local\Temp\Rar$EX00.248\BackUp\358082013907668\358082013907668.pm one good thing is that, it displays the path where the file is saved in the pc, which is very good, also i still wonder why, it was not being detected earlier in nss, and nss pro, but after doing the format it was being read by nss pro !!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic finding! Got a number of readers also could not detect the phone in nss & nss pro at first. Some need to restart computer, repluging USB cable, and formatting the phone. Only then nss can detect the phone.

ReplyDeletehi good day, i want my nokia c1-01 to be unlocked because it has security code everytime im opening it, i am unable to use it pls help me unlock thecode tnx
ReplyDeleteIf the phone is locked, it wont connect to the computer so pretty much nothing will work as far as software goes. From what i fount online so far, you need some service box that costs some money...i believe it connects somehow to the back of the phone (n97 mini, where it has some sets of connectors)
ReplyDeletei downloaded nss.. bt when scanning it says error.. cn someone help?
ReplyDeleteJust have a peek at this link and see what you can with spying
ReplyDeleteIt's extremely pleasant and meanful. it's extremely cool blog. Connecting is exceptionally valuable thing.you have truly helped bunches of individuals who visit blog and give them usefull data how to unlock android phone password without factory reset
