If the standard password 00000000 (8 Zeros) Doesn't work and you can't guess it yourself then you need to reset the whole phone.
This means you lose all your images, tones and settings (Other than the standard ones)
*2767*3855# Let it go through it's shutdown and start up routine it may take a few minutes.
Note* Do not switch the phone off until it has completed its reset. Tis very bad if you do.

I've tried this code but nothing happened it still says wrong password try again
It will only allow me to call SOS which puts me through to emergency services
Thankyou for trying to help me and hopefully I will get there soon.
Also it dosen't seem to allow me to enter the #

Take the SIM card out before you use the code

I have took the sim card out and tried both of the previous codes.
Unfortunatley niether of these codes are working.
It is saying emergency calls only
It also won't allow me to use the gate button.
Thankyou for your patience with me I'm not very technical
Kind Regards

Okay then lets try this one...
*2767*2878#
Now I managed to borrow a P510 for this experiment and I know this works.
Remove your SIM card and type in the code above.
When you type the # in the simcard animation will stop moving. Leave it like this about 1 minute just to give itself time to clear. If it has not already restarted, remove battery put in your SIM and restart the phone.
Fingers Crossed and hopefully we will see you on the functioning side again.
If you do get it working go into your "Phone Settings" "Security" "Change Password" Standard is 00000000 8 Zeros (This should be set to standard again, if not do the *2767*3855# code to reset it) Then change it to a number you can remember. (No 5 year olds can change your password if they don't know it )
