Nokia N80: My phone is asking for a PIN/PIN2/PUK/PUK2 Code. What should I do?

This article explains what to do when the N80 asks for a PIN/PIN2/PUK2 Code.

The N80 is installed with more than one code to guard it against unwarranted use.

The PIN Personal Identification Number)and PUK(Personal Unblocking Key) codes guard the SIM card, a small card inside your phone that sets up the network connection.

Generally, your network service provider is the best authority to help you with the PIN and PUK codes.

  • The PIN2 Code is a PIN Code which acts like a second line of defense for certain features of your phone.
  • It works in the same way as the PIN Code. Additional information can be obtained from the user guide.
  • If multiple incorrect entries of the PIN Code are made, your phone may ask for a PUK  Code.
  • The PUK Code is an 8-digit code. It is used to un-block a barred PIN Code and is provided by your network provider.
  • If multiple incorrect entries of the PIN2 Code are made, your phone may ask for a PUK2 Code.
