8210e unlock problem

Hi,

I was recently given my brothers old 8210e mobile whick is locked to the orange (uk) network as it was originally on a contract.

As I have a t-mobile payg sim I have spent some time trying to unlock it.

I understand there are four possible nokia locks and have obtained codes for locks 1 and 2 from crux's software and got the same codes from a free online service.

when I entered these codes they say the sim is now unrestricted.

excellent I thought! but no :(
Now the phone does actually accept the t-mobile sim and i can scroll through the menus etc but it will not find any network either manually or auto.. It says "no network found"

I do not have any other network sim to test it with but my one works fine in other phones.

Any pointers to what i might try next would be much appreciated


thanks jk

nokia 8210e v5.28 24.05.01 nsm-3

you should see when you enter the code SIM RESTRICTION OFF not SIM IS NOW UNRESTRICTED. that might be the problem. if you can send me a PM i can give you the right code for that phone.
