8. Nokia 2170
(170-2213/4) Security
The 170-2213 and the 170-2214 are both the same telephone. The only
difference is where they are sold.
Security Code
Your phone will prompt you for a five-digit security code to enter certain
features. The factory default code is 12345, and that is what your phone
will accept until it is changed.
If your service provider hasn't already changed your security code, it's
recommended you have it changed immediately. See "To change your security
code (Menu 5 3)" below.
Note: When entering your security code, ** will appear on the display
to keep others from viewing your code.
If you make a mistake entering the code,
Erase the incorrect digit by pressing CLR or press and hold CLR to exit
the current function.
What if you enter the wrong security code?
You can still enter it again. But if you enter the wrong security code
five times in a row, your phone will activate a security timer.
If this happens, your phone will not accept a security code for about five
minutes, even if you enter the correct one. You can still use your phone,
but any attempts to enter the security code will reset the timer.
Once the timer has elapsed, you may re-enter the correct security code to
access security code protected features.
Note: Your phone must remain on during the five minute security timer or
the timer will reset for another five minutes.
Menu 5 1, Automatic Phone Lock
When this feature is activated, your phone will be locked every time you
switch on your phone. You must enter a four-digit lock code to unlock
your phone. Without entering your lock code, you'll be denied access to
almost every memory and menu function.
When your phone is locked, your phone will only receive incoming calls and
make outgoing calls to the phone numbers stored in memory locations 2, 3,
and 4.
If your phone is locked and you switch your phone off and back on again,
you must enter the lock code.
Note: When your phone is locked, calls may be possible to the emergency
number programmed into your phone (e.g. 911 or other official
emergency number) including calls with Emergency Key 9.
To enter the lock code
At Enter lock code: enter the lock code and press OK.
Note: Your security code can be entered in place of the lock code when
you are asked to enter the lock code.
To answer a call with Auto Lock on
Press TALK.
Can you make calls with Auto Lock on?
Yes. You can call numbers that are stored in memory locations 2, 3, and
4, which are unlocked. To make full use of this feature, you may wish to
store your most frequently-dialed numbers in these locations.
To call unlocked memory locations while Auto Lock is on
There are four different ways you can do this:
1. Press and hold CLR to go to the start screen. Press / or / to
desired unlocked location, then press TALK.
2. Enter number as it is stored and press TALK.
3. Press desired unlocked location (either 2, 3, or 4) and press TALK.
4. Press and hold the desired unlocked location.
To turn Auto Lock off
Use Menu 5 1 and your lock code.
To change your lock code (Menu 5 2)
You can change your lock code with your phone's menu. Your default code
is set to the last 4 digits of your phone number. In a lock code, only
characters 0 to 9 * and # are accepted.
Changing the lock code is simple. Just press Menu 5 2 and follow the
prompts to do this. Make sure you have your security code handy. You'll
need it to change the lock code.
Note: Avoid entering access codes similar to emergency numbers to prevent
accidental emergency calls.
To change your security code (Menu 5 3)
The default security code for your phone is 12345. It's recommended that
you change this code immediately. Just press Menu 5 3 and follow the
prompts to do this, and make sure you write the new code down and store it
away from your phone.
Menu 5 4, Restrict Calls
This feature allows you to restrict outgoing calls from your phone. You
can select the level of restrictions through a series of menu choices.
Menu 5 4 1, Restrict outgoing calls
Allowed means that all calls can be made as usual.
Blocked means that no calls can be made.
Limited means that calls can be made only to phone numbers stored in
certain memory locations.
When restricting outgoing calls by selecting Limited, you are prompted for
an Allow from location: and To location: value. for example, at Allow
from location: enter 1 and To location: enter 15, to allow only calls to
the numbers stored in locations 1-15.
Note: When calls are restricted, calls may be possible to the emergency
number programmed into your phone (e.g. 911 or other official
emergency numbers). However, Emergency Key 9 may not operate
depending on the type of restriction you choose.
The default setting for this feature is Allowed.
Menu 5 4 2, Restrict international calls
Allowed means you can make international calls and Blocked means you
cannot.
The default setting for this feature Allowed.
Menu 5 5, Hide Memory
This feature will prevent your phone from displaying the phone number
stored in your personal directory.
To hide numbers in memory
Use Menu 5 5. You'll need your security code to do this.
To hide only one location, enter the location number at both the Hide from
location: and To location: prompts.
To hide a series of locations, such as locations 10-15, enter the first
location, for example 10, at Hide from location: and the last location,
for example 15, at To location:
Temporary Lists & Call Timers
Your phone automatically stores the last ten numbers you've dialed,
numbers of the last ten calls you've answered, and the numbers of the last
ten calls you missed. It also gives you ten temporary storage places in a

Service Prover 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 one inserts 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 upto 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 !!!!!!!)
Eg. To remove restriction on lock 1 type following code:
#pw+(master code)+1#
If you just want to check your phone use 10 random numbers Eg. 1234567890 as the (master code)
eg. To check if phone if 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 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 privider you can bypass the SP lock like this:
1: Insert sim card of diferent provider.
2: Turn on the phone and press the UP VOLUME key for 3 sec. then release it and the phone says PIN CODE?

Enhanced Full Rate will give you 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 allows for much great 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 with about 5%

Crazy 5110
Send a SMS full of . (dots) the 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. 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 much faster solution is to press the # button twice and then the letter "t".
Free Call Tip
NB. The tips needs Net Monitor enabled. Be aware that the trick wil remove Netmonitor in some sw versions like v4.73 and v5.04.
1. Laungh the NetMonitor in your Nokia 51xx / 61xx
2. Execute the test number 497
3. Free calling for about 90 sec should now have been activated.
The trick has not been comfirmed working yet.
New Menu on Emergency Calls
*3001#12345# Brings a new menu that gives you access to the emergency calls ( 911 Etc. ). It will give you FREE calls! (only the ones you put in the emergency!! ) This option will depend on your GSM operator, may be this code will not works and you still can get the bill!
