Yup, that should work. I had a 6682 and had to do that once.
here are some nokia secret codes for your ready reference. use it on your own risk.
Nokia Secret Codes
On the main screen type in:
*#06# for checking the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity).
*#7780# reset to factory settings.
*#67705646# This will clear the LCD display(operator logo).
*#0000# To view software version.
*#2820# Bluetooth device address.
*#746025625# Sim clock allowed status.
#pw+1234567890+1# Shows if sim have restrictions.
*#92702689# - takes you to a secret menu where you may find some of the information below:
1. Displays Serial Number.
2. Displays the Month and Year of Manufacture
3. Displays (if there) the date where the phone was purchased (MMYY)
4. Displays the date of the last repair - if found (0000)
5. Shows life timer of phone (time passes since last start)
*#3370# - Enhanced Full Rate Codec (EFR) activation. Increase signal strength, better signal reception. It also help if u want to use GPRS and the service is not responding or too slow. Phone battery will drain faster though.
*#3370* - (EFR) deactivation. Phone will automatically restart. Increase battery life by 30% because phone receives less signal from network.
*#4720# - Half Rate Codec activation.
*#4720* - Half Rate Codec deactivation. The phone will automatically restart
If you forgot wallet code for Nokia S60 phone, use this code reset: *#7370925538#
Note, your data in the wallet will be erased. Phone will ask you the lock code. Default lock code is: 12345
Press *#3925538# to delete the contents and code of wallet.
Unlock service provider: Insert sim, turn phone on and press vol up(arrow keys) for 3 seconds, should say pin code. Press C,then press * message should flash, press * again and 04*pin*pin*pin#
*#7328748263373738# resets security code.
Default security code is 12345
Change closed caller group (settings >security settings>user groups) to 00000 and ure phone will sound the message tone when you are near a radar speed trap. Setting it to 500 will cause your phone 2 set off security alarms at shop exits, gr8 for practical jokes! (works with some of the Nokia phones.) Press and hold "0" on the main screen to open wap browser.

Damn, I wish I knew all that when I had my Nokia!
and to add one more, to do a deep reset, switch the phone off.
then hold down star, 3, and the dial key. its a deep reset and is usually recommended than the normal reset to avoid further problems as you go about using your phone.
thanks a lot. for your replies. I need to do a deep reset. when I have those three keys held down, when my phone restarts, do I need to type in a code?
Thanks so much.
hmm,
a little correction here. disregard my previous post, well not entirely.
ok, let's go:
1. switch the phone off.
2. turn the phone on, and immediately do the following:
hold down the star, the 3key and the dial key for a few seconds. about three or four or so.
wait a few seconds more and the phone should ask for your pin code, enter it.
then you hear the lovely tune of Nokia and then it should ask for the date and time you can skip that by pressing key 1 two times or so. and change it when you've installed talks or mobile speak.
hope it helps, and I stand to be corrected if I'm wrong however, I've done it loads of times and its always worked for me.
hmm very strange. I tryed that, it still doesn't say anything. actually, I'll explain. I don't know what happened exactly, but when I turned on my phone a few days ago, it said phone restart failed please contact the retailor. since this happened, I can't do anything with my phone.
I hope I don't need to send it in.
thanks for your help.
Hi,
well, on some occasions my phone did tell me that however it wasn't as a result of the method I described in my previous post.
in fact, when my phone did give me the error that you got it was the reason for me actually resetting my phone. and when I did reset my phone with the described method, all worked fine for me.
I recommend you do it when there is someone sighted around so they can tell you if after you've done the method the phone would say formatting which will actually result in having it deep reset itself.
for me, I never done it with sighted people around and I knew that it worked since it would give me the sounds when you'd press a key to enter the pin code for example which I didn't have it on originally as it was kinda annoying.
if it don't work then I would hate to say this, but to take it in.
however, other people who might reply would probably have different opinions.
thanks so much guys. actually, it worked! yay! I don't need to take it in after all.
thanks a lot for your responces.
