For S60 1st and 2nd Phones

For S60 1st and some of 2nd phones, such as Nokia 3650, Nokia 6600 and Nokia N-Gage, the password is stored in a plain text file.

* Firstly, you need to install FExplorer, a free file manager that allows us to browser through S60 file system.
* Next, launch FExplorer and then browser to c:\system folder. There is a file, called mmcstore.
* Rename the file to mmcstore.txt and then open it. Your password must be several characters at the end of the file.

For S60 3rd Phones, Nokia N-Series and Nokia E-Series

Solution One
---------------
This solution for Phone that have execution file name : unlockMMC.app on folder z:\system\app\
Note :
Not all S60 Phone have this execution file.
To unlock Memory Card :
- Run execution file unlockMMC.app
- Enter new Password you like (example "12345")
- Run app Memory (Phone app Memory Standard)
- Choose To Unlock MMC with that new password

Solution Two
----------------
Every times you set to lock ur Memory Card with lock password , phone made a file to save your password with file name mmcstore - you can find ths file in folder c:\system\.
Note :
To see the file you must set ur file browser app to show hidden files.

To get your Lock Password :

- Send that file into your PC
- Change file extension with .txt
- Open that file using app Notepad
- You will see your lock password
or
(This way not always success)
- Make sure that your phone have app Notepad
- Copy that file into other folder
- Change its attribute not a system file and not a hidden file
- Change its extension with .txt
- Run app Notepad on your Phone
- Open that file
- You will see your lock password

Solution Three
------------------
Use app for Break Memory Card Password - this app name MMCPWD
You can find this app using this link :
http://imserba.com/index.php?name=PN...&start=360
To get your Lock Password :
- Install app MMCPWD into your phone
- Run app MMCPWD
- Choose Option then choose Restore
- You will see your lock password

otherwise
The only way that I know so far is by reformatting the memory card. It can be done from Memory Card application by selecting Options | Format memory card menu. Of course, you will lose all your data in the memory card…

I have the same problem with a e71 and I was wondering if the solutions were still applicable. If so do you mind going through the steps with a little more detail?

Thank you.
