    Hi there,
    I've used up 2 tries so far, so I'm guessing I have at least 1 more try and max 3 more tries?
    The two codes that I've used so far:
    #pw+748530262677446+1#
    #pw+317236036504041+7#

    Here's the info that I used:

    IMEI: 356673000068969
    Model: Nokia 8801
    Country: Canada
    Provider that phone is locked to: Fido

    Thanks!

    Your code:Try this ONCE and ONCE only. Remember,
    you only get 3 to 5 tries.
    [bold]If you enter the same code two times[/bold],
    that is [bold]two tries.[/bold]
    To enter code:
    Make sure battery is charged.
    Remove SIM first.
    Power on.
    Ignore “Insert SIM”
    Press the # key.
    then press the "star" key (*) quickly to get the P and W and +
    Press * 3 times quickly for (p) \
    Press * 4 times quickly for (w) IMPORTANT
    Press * 2 times quickly for (+) /
    and the rest of the code---
    Begin with # and end with #.

    IMPORTANT!!
    Verify code before pressing the last #.
    Pay attention. You only have about two seconds.

    "Phone restrictions off", it's unlocked.
    "Error code" wrong code. STOP tell me.
    "Not allowed" or "Can Not Undo Restriction" it's hard locked.
    Used up all your free tries!!

    If it does not work, tell me: What happened? What message
    you got. What codes you tried.
    Above all, answer.
    JG

    Hi JG,

    Thanks for the help, but when I entered it, I get "Can Not Undo Restriction". I swear I only tried unlocked it twice, and this is my third time. I thought I get 3-5 free tries?

    Thanks so much for the help once again!

    Sorry to hear that.
    If you enter the same code two times, that's two tries.

    Hi JG,

    Yes, I understand that if you enter the same code twice, it's two tries. But I didn't. Probably my uncle tried to unlock it before since it was his phone. I guess I have to bring it into a store to get someone to unlock it for me, huh?

    Thanks a lot JG! So glad you helped me!
    Have a great summer,
    mahdlo
