If you want to connect your 6220 to your PC for data transfer, the options are:

• Cable - Use the supplied USB cable to connect to your PC. The cable is terminated with a Micro-USB connector. The lead is a CA-101 ,and you can save some cash by picking these up very cheaply on eBay.co.uk
• Bluetooth - If your PC is Bluetooth-enabled, you can connect from the Nokia 6220's Bluetooth service. You can get a cheap USB Bluetooth adapter for your PC. Bluetooth help.

You can connect using the Nokia PC Suite supplied on CD with the 6220. Alternatively, you can use a third-party application called Oxygen II.

The Nokia 6220 supports microSD cards for memory expansion. Nokia can sell you their own microSD cards, but their prices for Nokia-branded cards are higher than for standard cards. We've not heard of any incompatibility with non-Nokia cards, so it's worth shopping around to get a third-party card. Here are a few online options:

• Amazon - Always a good choice for reliable delivery at good prices
• eBay.co.uk - bid for new cards at low prices!

• Length: 4 digits
• Detail: This is an optional 4 digit code to protect your SIM
• Set from: Tools > Settings > Security > Phone & SIM

• Length: 8 digits
• Detail: You'll be asked for this 8 digit code if you've entered the wrong SIM code more than the allowed number of times. You'll need to contact your network operator to get this lock lifted.

• If your phone was fixed to work on a specific network (for example, Orange), this lock may prevent you from using another SIM in the handset. You may see "SIM card rejected" or "SIM card unaccepted". This lock can be lifted for you by contacting the network operator in question (there may be a fee for this).

Memory Card lock code

• Our forum often gets messages from people that are seeing "Memory card locked". This means that your microSD card has had a password set on it. If you know the password, and want to remove it, go to Tools > Memory.
• Lost? - Sorry, but we don't know of a way to remove this code. The advice we've seen via our forum suggests that you may want to format your memory card either from the Tools > Memory > Options > Format mem. card, or using a PC Memory Card Reader. If you know of a better solution, please pass this on via our forum to help others that have managed to lock themselves out of their cards!
