Hi all,

I'm having trouble finding a correct unlock code for my Nokia 6230 on Cingular in Boston, MA. I think the problem may be related to the provider code I was using at first... Details are as follows:

PHONE = Nokia 6230
IMEI = 353372001838321

If you have completed your contract or have purchased the phone outright then give Cingular wireless a call.
