I have a Nokie 6130 and I have so far changed my pin and my pin2
successfully.

What I can't do is change the security code for the phone so that 
I can use some of the other features on this one that look enticing. 
How do the telcos get around this problem and how can we too.

Having got the phone second hand and with no proof of purchase 
Nokia won't give out the security codes unless you get a dealer 
to send them a fax with the phone's IME number on dealer letterhead 
and all. 

Can anyone explain all this?
