Due to a growing number of code requests for latest Nokias I feel I need to address this situation.
For many years folks who wanted to unlock their nokia phone were the luckiest ones, all they had to do is to download a code calculator enter the phone info and voila! - they had a perfectly good unlock code. DCT4/DCT3 unlocking situation has become a nightmare for service providers, they couldn't keep customers long enough on the plans.
So a few fine Finnish men from Nokia got together and came up with an "uncrackable algorithm".
There is arguably only one man on Earth who is able to unlock BB5 mobiles. Technical details of the method are beyond the scope of this post.
Whereas he is not ready to reveal the solution due to reason well understood interested parties can and have been using his services.
So the latest generation of Nokia handsets currently cannot be unlocked using standard means.
The only way such phones can be unlocked is using a code directly from the provider's database. There is a number of websites offering unlocking by code. This is the only way to unlock bb5 nokia phones, anyone claiming otherwise most probably is trying to mislead you.
On the other hand flashing can be performed using a number of tools such as JAF, HWK, MTbox, PBB, GTI. Flashing can repair the phone or change firmware/language etc.
