Tried this before with the old firmware of E71 and it corrupted my memory card. I don't know if this is already fix with the new firmware.

Did you accidentally enter the code wrong 2 or 3 times? I think it deletes everything on your phone after a few unsuccessful retries.

Hey, thanks for posting it. I've been meaning to find out how to do it, but was too lazy to dig in the manual!

Seems a security risk if every single phone has the unlock code of 12345? Nevertheless I've enabled it on my E71 and no problems. Just hope I never need to use it.

change your security code to whatever you want. that is just the code if you
don't set your own.

I did exactly what you said, but when I sent the sms with the exact phrase, it didnt lock... every setting is as your explanation

I've tried that in my phone and worked like a charm.
The only problem is that my memory card got encrypted and I didn't have the key.
On the Encryption settings, it was showing as unencrypted so I've enabled it and created a key with the same value that the unlock code.
After enabling it I've disabled it and all the contents of the memory card were untouched. :-)

If this is enabled, the phone will get locked when switch on after offline mode or restart the phone. You will need to enter your phone's lock code to unlock it. Cool feature.

Hi, I have been using this feature ever since I bought the unit in Jan 2009. Works like a darling. Anyways, regular users of this could alternatively enable the Phone Autolock period which also does the same function and when the phone is locked can only be unlocked by entering the 5 digit lock code. Go to the same screen as shown above and select the 2 fields above the remote lock period. A nice function from Nokia indeed.
