Oh. That's a hard one. There are three ways. 1. *#7328748263373738# type that on the main screen and it will reset the security code of your phone. 2. Nokia 6300 can be unlock using a Master code. There are code generator available online. All you need is the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity). To check for the IMEI, press *#06# on the main screen. 3. Another option is that you can do is flash the firmware of your Nokia 6300. This will reset all info of the phone back to the when it was shipped out. Be careful with flashing the firmware, though. It can turn the cellphone into a brick if you encounter a problem during the flashing. Oh. By the way, for Nokia..I believe it's a 6-digit code..try 123456.

What happens when you put in another sim card? The new sim card has its own code to open the phone and to enter the menu. Another possibility is to use the PUK code. There is the option the uncle forgot the PUK code too. This is the more likely since the uncle did not provide the PUK code. If nothing else works it might help to call the help desk of Nokia. To avoid phone costs it is cheaper to send the help desk an email. If it is worth to give a lot of efforts to get the security code depends of the time and the service attached to it. If the phone membership ended it doesn't make sense to try to find the code to open the phone. If the membership ended and if the prepaid amount of money is zero it is time to get another registration with a new sim card or to get another prepaid sim card. This is my opinion.
