Does anyone know a web site where you can get codes to unlock an orange phone so you can use it on any network? I know they exist I just don't where.
Thanks

In order to unlock phones it is not a simple case of codes. A software is required to reverse the network lock & if it is a pay as you go phone, a second lock is required to be removed. What phone is it for?? You can get them unlocked at many places & costs around £15. Got mine done at a local mobile case shop.

it is a nokia 6130. I thought there were hacks on the net that allow you to do that? I thought I saw it a while ago (when I didnt need it) now I do I wanted to see if it exists.
Thanks

If its a 6130, then an FBUS cable will do. Shouldn't cost you more than, say, a tenner. There's plenty of software on the net that will do it for you, but you need the appropriate cable.

Try a car boot sale?

I thought FBUS was to change logos, ringtones etc & MBUS for software changes???

Make sure you buy the right one. I went for the FBUS & MBUS cable for the 8210. However, as security on Nokias are pretty high, an extra black box is required which costs in the region of £2K.

your right, but the box is £400 not 2K....however I would be willing to sell you one at 2K instead of £400 if you've got that much spare cash !!
