called LPC-RPE (Linear Prediction Coding with

Service Provider Lock
The Service Provider (SP) lock is used to lock the
cell phone to the SP's Sim card. Once the cell phone
is locked to a specific operator, if you insert a
Sim card from a different operator, the phone will
refuse to accept it! The cell phone will however
accept another Sim card from the same operator.
All Nokia phones (2110 and newer) have four
different Sim locks which can be used to lock the
phone for up to 4 different providers. Most phones
with restriction only have one lock activated (lock
1).
The main code used in Nokia phones is:
#pw+(master code)+Y#
This code is able to check, activate or remove Sim
card restriction (SP-lock).
Use the * key to get the p, + and w chars.
'Y' has to be 1,2,3 or 4, depending on what lock you
want to deal with.
#pw+1234567890+1# for Provider-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+2# for Network-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+3# for Country-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+4# for SimCard-Lock status
# = DOUBLE-CROSS
W = PRESS "*" THREE TIMES
P = PRESS "*" FOUR TIMES
+ = PRESS "*" TWO TIMES
MASTERCODE = 1234567890
Y = NUMBER 1 TO 4
Master code: it is a 10 digit code, based on the
phones IMEI number.
(I can NOT give you the master code, SO DON'T ASK ME
FOR IT !!!!!!!)
E.g.: To remove restriction on lock 1, type the
following code:
#pw+(master code)+1#
If you just want to check your phone, use 10 random
numbers. E.g.: 1234567890 as the master code.
E.g.: To check if the phone is restricted on lock 1,
type the following code:
#pw+1234567890+1#
Please NOTE that these codes should be used with
care! A user told me that it's only possible to type
in about 3 different codes on each lock! Then
something bad will happen... therefore be careful!
Bypass the SP lock
With a Nokia 16xx/21xx/31xx/51xx/81xx Simlocked to
one provider, you can bypass the SP lock like this:
1: Insert a Sim card from a different provider.
2: Turn on the phone and press the UP VOLUME key for
3 sec., then release it and the phone will say PIN
CODE?
3: Press the "C" key.
4: Then Press * and wait until it disappears and
appear again, then press * once more and enter 04*PIN*PIN*PIN#.
The phone now says: PIN CODE CHANGED (or ACCEPTED),
and the Sim card is accepted until you restart the
phone again. NOTE: on version 5.04 Nokia has removed
this option !

Network Monitor
There is a hidden menu inside your Nokia phone. If
you want to activate it, you'll have to re-program
some chips inside of your phone.
1.Check your software version. You can only continue
if you have v4.33, v4.73 or v5.24.
2.Take apart the phone.
3. De-solder the EEPROM (ATMEL AT 24C64).
4. Read out the data with an EEPROM programmer and
save it to a file (Backup).
5. If you have v.33 or v4.73, change the address
"03B8" from "00" to "FF".
6. If you have v5.24 then change the address
"0378" from "00" to "FF".
7. Write the new data to the EEPROM and solder it
back to the phone.
8. Turn on your phone and you should have "Netmonitor"
enabled.
The Network Monitor gives you the following
information:
Carrier number
MS RX Level in DBM
Received signal quality
MS TX power level C1 (Path loss criterion, used for
cell selection and reselection). The range is -99 to
99.
RTL (Radio link timeout).
Timeslot
Indication of the transmitter status
Information on the Network parameters.
TMSI (Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity).
Cell identification (Cell ID, Number of cells being
used).

MCN (Mobile network code)
LAC (Location area code)
Ciphering (On/Off)
Hopping (On/Off)
DTX (On/Off)
Discard cell barred information. The Reboot Trick
It should work on all software versions.
1. Go to calendar (menu - 8)
2. Make note / reminder
3. Enter some text into the edit box
4. Hold "Clear" until the whole text is
cleared, then press "Back"
5. Press 0. The main screen is shown, but a space
appears on the screen. You can't see it, of course.
6. Enter 4 digits (1234, for example)
7. Use the down arrow to move the keyboard to the
left side of the numbers and the space (2 times down
arrow)
8. Now enter 6 digits and press the green "Call
button".
Wait some seconds...the phone will now flash the
background light and finally reboot. The trick
should also work on other menus like the profile
menu...
The James Bond Trick
If you short-circuit the left, middle and right pins
on the bottom of the phone, with all connections
touching each other, the Nokia software hangs! The
profile "Headset" will be activated.
Before you do this just activate the "Automatic
Answer" in the headset profile and set the
ringing volume to "Mute". Now you can use
your phone to check out what people are talking
about in a room. Just place it under a table in a
room and call it. The phone receives the call
without ringing and you can listen to what people
are saying.

Y = NUMBER 1 TO 4
(master code) is a 10 digit code, based on the
phones IMEI number.
(I can NOT give you the master code - SO DON'T ASK
ME FOR IT !!!!!!!)
E.g.: To remove restriction on lock 1, type the
following code:
#pw+(master code)+1#
If you just want to check your phone, use 10 random
numbers (e.g.: 1234567890) as the master code.
So, to check if the phone if restricted on lock 1,
type the following code:
#pw+1234567890+1#
Please NOTE that these codes should be used with
care! A user told me that it's only possible to type
in about 3 different codes on each lock! Then
something bad will happen... therefore be careful!
Bypass the SP lock
With a Nokia 16xx/21xx/31xx/51xx/81xx Simlocked to
one provider, you can bypass the SP lock like this:
1: Insert a Sim card from diferent provider.
2: Turn on the phone and press the UP VOLUME key for

3: Press the "C" key.
4: Then Press * and wait until it desapear and apear
again, then press * one more time and 04*PIN*PIN*PIN#
The phone now says: PIN CODE CHANGED (or ACCEPTED)
and the Sim card is accepted until you restart the
phone again. NOTE: On version 5.04 Nokia has removed
this option !
Your number in your display
1. Go to menu 3-7 (Call cost settings).
2. Turn ON the Call costs' limit (3-7-1). PIN2 code
is required.
3. Enter the limit with the phone number. E.g.: my
phone # is 019 2184697, so enter the limit as
2184697.
4. Go to menu 3-7-2 (Show costs in). PIN2 code is
required.
5. Select Currency.
6. Enter Unit price: 1.
7. Enter Currency name as 019 (my phone #, e.g.:
above).
Now the phone number 019 2184697 will remains on the
4th row of the display. If you press the # key, it
prompts which line can be used, line 1 or 2.
Larger Number Tip (it works in 51xx series)
If you hold the key # while you are in the names
list, the telephone number can be viewed with a
larger font.
Power Button Tip:
If you press the button for a short moment, the menu
with the profiles is shown on the display. If you
press it one more time, the phone will turn off. You
can use the up and down keys to scroll and to enable
a different alert setting.
Crazy 5110
Send a SMS full of . (dots) and it'll go crazy when
you scroll the received message in your 5110. It
doesn't do any permanent damage...it only goes crazy
if you scroll the SMS. I'm not sure if it works with
all of the software version, but it works with 4.59.
It doesn't work on SW version 4.53 ..
The 54# Tip:
Type 1#, 2#........54# on the keypad (when you're
not in the menu) to get the phone number used for
with this key when speed dialing.
Revealing the Headphone and Car-Kit menus
Please note that if you do these next tricks, the
new menus can't be erased without retoring the
factory default settings. To do these tricks you
need to short-circuit the pins on the bottom of the
phone, next to where you plug in you charger.
1. To activate the "Headset" menu, you
need to short-circuit pins "3" and
"4". After a short time the word "Headset"
will be shown in the display. Menu 3-6 is now
enabled.
2. To activate the "Car" menu, you need to
short-circuit pins "4" and "5".
After a short time the word "Car" will be
shown in the display. Menu 3-7 is now enabled.
Quick SMS Typing
When typing SMS messages, you have to wait some
seconds before you can type the next letter if it is
in the same button than the previous one. For
example try to write the word "letter",
you have to wait before you can enter the second
"t". A faster solution is to press the #
button twice and then the letter "t".

Network Monitor
There is a hidden menu inside your Nokia phone. If
you want to activate it, you'll have to re-program
some chips inside of your phone.
1.Check your software version. You can only continue
if you have v4.33, v4.73 or v5.24.
2.Take apart the phone.
3. De-solder the EEPROM (ATMEL AT 24C64).
4. Read out the data with an EEPROM programmer and
save it to a file (Backup).
5. If you have v.33 or v4.73, change the address
"03B8" from "00" to "FF".
6. If you have v5.24 then change the address
"0378" from "00" to "FF".
7. Write the new data to the EEPROM and solder it
back to the phone.
8. Turn on your phone and you should have "Netmonitor"
enabled.
The Network Monitor gives you the following
information:
Carrier number
MS RX Level in DBM
Received signal quality
MS TX power level C1 (Path loss criterion, used for
cell selection and reselection). The range is -99 to

This is what the Nokia 8810 displays when
software code is typed:

NSE-6
First line:
The software version (I guess that this software has
been used in previously Nokia-phones, what do you
say?!).
Second line:
The date of the SW release.
Third line:
NHE-8 has something to do with the type of phone you
are dealing with. Is it GSM 900 (standard), GSM 1800
(DCS1800) or GSM 1900 (PCS1900)? Nokia 2110, 3110,
8110(i) are all NHE types. The only thing that vary
is the code after NHE- ("8"). NHE = GSM
900, NHK =GSM 1800. The number in the end is the
model (2110i = 4 etc.). The 5110 and 6110 are called
NSE-1 and NSE-3. This may be because it supports EFR
(?).
Software update, how?
I have been asked a lot about how to update the
software in your cell phones. The easiest thing to
do is to go to the nearest Nokia dealer and make him
do it for you. Just remember that it is supposed to
be free (a receipt is required), so don't let him
tell you anything else!
Service Provider Lock
The Service Provider (SP) lock is used to lock the
cell phone to the SP's Sim card. Once the cell phone
is locked to a specific operator, if you insert a
Sim card from a different operator, the phone will
refuse to accept it! The cell phone will however
accept another Sim card from the same operator.
All Nokia phones (2110 and newer) have four
different Sim locks which can be used to lock the
phone for up to 4 different providers, but most
phones with restriction only have one lock activated.
( lock 1)
The main code used in Nokia phones is:
#pw+(master code)+Y#
This code is able to check, activate or remove Sim
card restriction (SP-lock).
Use the * key to get the p, + and w chars.
'Y' has to be 1,2,3 or 4 - depending of what lock
you what to deal with.
#pw+1234567890+1# for Provider-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+2# for Network-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+3# for Country-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+4# for SimCard-Lock status
# = DOUBLE-CROSS
W = PRESS "*" THREE TIMES
P = PRESS "*" FOUR TIMES
+ = PRESS "*" TWO TIMES
MASTERCODE = 1234567890
Y = NUMBER 1 TO 4
Master code is a 10 digit code, based on the
phones' IMEI number.
(I can NOT give you the master code - SO DON'T ASK
ME FOR IT !!!!!!!)
E.g.: To remove restriction on lock 1, type the
following code:
#pw+(master code)+1#
If you just want to check your phone, use 10 random
numbers (e.g.: 1234567890) as the master code.
E.g.: to check if the phone is restricted on lock 1,
type the following code:
#pw+1234567890+1#
Please NOTE that these codes could be used with care!
A user told me that it's only possible to type in
about 5 different codes on each lock! Then something
bad will happen... therefore be careful!
In most countries Nokia has denied to lock this
phone to a Service Provider.
Enhanced Full Rate Codec (EFR):
On: enter *3370# and EFR will be activated after a
reboot of the phone (consumes more power)
Off: enter #3370# and EFR will be switched off after
a reboot of the phone.
Half Rate Codec:
This function is NOT available on 8810
Enhanced Full Rate will give you a much better sound
quality when you enable it. The new Enhanced Full
Rate CODEC adopted by GSM uses the ASELP (AlgebraicCode
Excitation Linear Prediction) compression technology.
This technology provides you with a better voice
quality in the same number of bits as the older Full
Rate CODEC. The older technology was called LPC-RPE
(Linear Prediction Coding with Regular Pulse
Excitation). Both operate at 13 kilobits.(but you
take up more space on the network, so they can
charge you more). Talk time is reduced about 5%.
The 54# Tip:
Type 1#, 2#........54# on the keypad (when you're
not in the menu) to get the phone number used for
with thiskey when speed dialing.
Power Button Tip:
If you press the button for a short moment, the menu
with the profiles is shown on the display. If you
press it one more time, the phone will turn off. You
can use the up and down keys to scroll and to enable
a different alert setting.
Quick SMS Typing
When typing SMS messages, you have to wait some
seconds before you can type the next letter if it is
in the same button as the previous one. For example,
try to write the word "letter". You have
to wait before you can enter the second "t"..
A much faster solution is to press the # button
twice and then the letter "t".
What's a Business Card?
A business card is a special SMS message which is
composed as following: //SCKE2 BEGIN:VCARD N:name
TEL:number END:VCARD

During a call you can press and hold down the "Menu"
button for 3 sec., and a menu will appear (trasfer,

Software update, how?
I have been asked a lot about how to update the
software in your cell phones. The easiest thing to
do is to go to the nearest Nokia dealer and make him
do it for you. Just remember that it is supposed to
be free (a receipt is required) so don't let him

Service Provider Lock
The Service Provider (SP) lock is used to lock the
cell phone to the SP's Sim card. Once the cell phone
is locked to a specific operator, if you insert a
Sim card from a different operator, the phone will
refuse to accept it! The cell phone will however
accept another Sim card from the same operator.
All Nokia phones (2110 and newer) have four
different Sim locks which can be used to lock the
phone for upto 4 different providers, but most
phones with restriction only have one lock activated.
( lock 1)
The main code used in Nokia phones is:
#pw+(master code)+Y#
This code is able to check, activate or remove Sim
card restriction (SP-lock).
Use the * key to get the p, + and w chars.
'Y' has to be 1,2,3 or 4, depending on what lock you
want to deal with.
#pw+1234567890+1# for Provider-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+2# for Network-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+3# for Country-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+4# for SimCard-Lock status
# = DOUBLE-CROSS
W = PRESS "*" THREE TIMES
P = PRESS "*" FOUR TIMES
+ = PRESS "*" TWO TIMES
MASTERCODE = 1234567890
Y = NUMBER 1 TO 4
Master code is a 10 digit code, based on the
phones' IMEI number.
(I can NOT give you the master code - SO DON'T ASK
ME FOR IT !!!!!!!)
E.g.: To remove restriction on lock 1, type the
following code:
#pw+(master code)+1#
If you just want to check your phone use 10 random
numbers (e.g.: 1234567890) as the master code.
E.g.: To check if the phone is restricted on lock 1,
type the following code:
#pw+1234567890+1#
Please NOTE that these codes should be used with
care! A user told me that it's only possible to type
in about 3 different codes on each lock! Then
something bad will happen... therefore be careful!
Bypass the SP lock
With a Nokia 16xx/21xx/31xx/51xx/81xx that are
Simlocked to one provider you can bypass the SP lock
like this:
1: Insert a Sim card from a different provider.
2: Turn on the phone and press the UP VOLUME key for
3 sec., then release it and the phone says PIN CODE?
3: Press the "C" key.
4: Press * and wait until it disappears and appears
again, then press * one more time and enter 04*PIN*PIN*PIN#
The phone now says: PIN CODE CHANGED (or ACCEPTED)
and the Sim card is accepted until you restart the
phone again. NOTE: On version 5.04 Nokia has removed
this option !
The 54# Tip:
Type 1#, 2#........54# on the keypad (when you're
not in the menu) to get the phone number used for
with thiskey when speed dialing.
Update from 8110 >8110i impossible....
Even though NHE-6 is found on the backside of 8110
too, an update from that phone to the 8110i is
impossible. The reason is simple: the hardware is
different, what means that the SW capacity in 8110i
is bigger than in the 8110.
Original Ringtone
If you want the original ringtone back after you
have downloaded one, you can send a message to
yourself containing the text: //SCKL1581. After some
time you will receive a message that you can save,
and your original Nokia ringtone is back.
What's a Business Card?
A business card is a special SMS message which is
composed as following: //SCKE2 BEGIN:VCARD N:name
TEL:number END:VCARD
Hands Free tip
To continue an existing call when placing the 8110i
into the hands free car kit without it dropping the
call, press the Memory button just before connecting
the cable and placing it in the cradle.
Display extra text in Call Costs Feature tip
If your network operator doesn't offer a call costs
service, you can still make use of that function to
display some personalised text on the screen of your
8110i. Go to Menu, [5], [7], [1], enter PIN2-code
and choose Set. Then type in the limit of the
currency units you're using (if the call cost
service worked, you would have to type the cost
limit of the calls) and choose OK. In this case I
typed 8110. Then go to the next submenu (Menu, [5],
[7], [2]), the Show Costs In menu. Type in the PIN2
code again and select currency. Type in the unit
price, in this case number 1. Then type the name of
the currency -you can use any string of letters and
numbers 1-3 characters long. Then type 2 letters,
and, to confirm type, two names begining with one of
each of the letters. Then press OK to confirm it.
Quick saving while in call tip
Saving numbers to memory during a call. If you type
a number into your phone during a call, you will
lose it when the call ends. To prevent this, just
hold down the Memory button and the number will be
saved (with no name) to the next available memory
location.
Deleting SMS messages quickly tip
When reading an SMS message, instead of pressing
Option, Erase to delete the message, just press [C].
Turning temporarily lights on tip
If you have the display lights turned off, you can
turn them on by quickly pressing and releasing the
power button. They will stay on as long as you are
pressing button.
Temporary Silent mode tip
You can put your phone into silent ringing mode
temporarily by pressing Menu and then [#].
Closing the cover without ending a call tip
If you press the menu key and then close the sliding
cover during a call you will not end your call.
Turning temporarily lights on tip
If you have the lights turned off, you can turn them
on by quickly pressing and releasing the power
button. They will stay on as long as you're pressing
the button.
This works also in Nokia 3110. Lights will go off
after a couple of seconds if you don't press any
button.
