If it's the sim pin and not the handset lock then you can (once failed 3 times) request a PUK code from your operator to unlock it. I would check the terms and conditions for your specific operator about this first.

Seems to me it's phone code. Go to service center they can unblock your phone if it's not stolen. If it's stolen you probably go to prison and u don't need a phone there ;-)

If its the phone lock code then you could try this. Take out the battery out of the phone and leave the phone like that for a while ( i dont know a couple of weeks should do it) hopefully that should ROM to lose sum of its power and reset the phone lock code to 0000. However it may also delete the phone's software so i wouldnt suggest doin this. Also i have never tried it its just a theory. My suggestion just buy a new phone

SE service centre, or Fido(if that's where it was bought) technician can reset it for you. Otherwise, get the Terminator dongle.

I believe all phones these days have built in cell batteries to hold info like contacts and configurations. You would have to do it for 2 years then open it up to replace that battery. Sorry marik
