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%.

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:

5%
Half Rate will give you bad soundquality, what gives the Service
Provider the opportunity to have more calls on the network,
and you might get a lower charge from them. It will give you
a 30% longer talk-time.
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).
MCC (Mobile country code)
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.

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,

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

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 99.

Older versions:
V 4.05 NSE-6 (26-11-98)
V 4.01 NSE-6
V 3.01 NSE-6 (08-07-98) First version!
This is what the Nokia 8810 displays when software code is
typed:
V 04.05
26-11-98
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
Call Menu
During a call you can press and hold down the "Menu"
button for 3 sec., and a menu will appear (trasfer, mute, etc.).

(SP-lock).
Use the * key to get the p, + and w chars.

# = DOUBLE-CROSS
W = PRESS "*" THREE TIMES

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:

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.
