    go into ur phone settings,
    security settings, phone
    and sim.
    Scroll down to lock code.
    To change the code to ur
    own, select it, and it will ask for the default lock
    code which is 12345. Once
    confirmed, it will ask u for
    ur new code which can be
    4 or 5 digits. Pick
    something u wont forget. Then it will ask u to
    confirm it.
    Done.
    Now if ur phone has an
    autolock feature, u can set
    it by selecting it and selecting user defined and
    set a time, like 10 or 15
    minutes, up to u. Ur phone
    will lock after that set
    time of inactivity. U will
    still be able to take calls, but need to put the code
    in to do anything else.
    Code will be requested
    each time u turn ur phone
    on.
    Depending on ur nokia, u may have remote lock
    feature. With this, u set a
    password, and if ur phone
    is stolen and ur worried
    that it hasnt autolocked, u
    can send that password to ur phone from any other
    phone by sms and it locks
    it.
    U may also have the
    feature to have the phone
    lock if the simcard is changed and u can enable
    that too.
    Finally, u have pin lock.
    This locks ur sim card,
    even if a theif takes it out
    and puts it in another phone, the code will be
    required to use ur sim.
    To change the pin code, its
    the same as the lock code
    change, but the default
    code u need to put in first is different. Its usually
    00000 but if that doesnt
    work, select cancel, and
    call ur service provider,
    they will give u their sim
    pin default code, and after uv done that, select pin
    request on, and it will ask
    for a code every time u
    turn ur phone on.
    Its a good idea to make ur
    pin and lock code the same so u just enter them
    consecutively on start up.
    Hope that wasnt
    confusing!,
