Forgot lock code

I set my phone to be locked if the sim is changed. I have used the phone for two years and I want to give it to someone.
The problem is that the phone works fine with my sim but once I remove my sim it prompts me for the lock code which I don't remember.

1. Start your phone without your new SIM or any SIM card in it 2. Now hit *#06# on your cell phone. When you do it, your IMEI number, a unique global serial number for your cell phone shows up. Your IMEI number should be 15 digits. 3. Now, choose the model of your Cell phone. If you don’t know your cell phone model number, you can always find out by removing the cell/battery of your phone. The model number along with the IMEI of the phone should be present. 4. Now, select the country and the operator the phone is locked to. For example “USA- T-Mobile” 5. You are now given the unlock codes for your cell phone.
Additional Sollution:Push * 3 times in a second. (p will show)
Push * 4 times in a second.(w will show) Push * 2 times in a second(+ will show)

Tolong brapa kode nya teman..?

*7370# and enter the security code, It will format your set and all code? But if your forgot the secuirty code then you have to download some software for the purpose.
Regards,*#06# for checking the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) for Nokia 7610 To view Week and Year of manufacture enter *#3283# [*# D A T E #]
The last two digits are the year. If the year is 95, the first two digits are the month. For 96 the first two digits are the week of the year.

To view the software version on Nokia 7610 enter *#170602112302# or *#9999#
On newer phones, the code has been changed to *#682371158412125#

All Nokia phones (Nokia 7610 and newer) have four different SIM locks which can be used to lock the phone for up to 4 different providers. But most phones with restriction only have one lock activated. (Lock 1)

The main code used in Nokia 7610 phones is :
#pw+(master code)+Y#
This code is able to check, activate or remove Sim card restriction (SP-lock).
Use the * key to get the p, + and w chars.
'Y' has to be 1,2,3 or 4 - depending of what lock you what to deal with.

#pw+1234567890+1# for Provider-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+2# for Network-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+3# for Country-Lock status
#pw+1234567890+4# for SimCard-Lock status

# = DOUBLE-CROSS
W = PRESS "*" THREE TIMES
P = PRESS "*" FOUR TIMES
+ = PRESS "*" TWO TIMES
MASTERCODE = 1234567890
Y = NUMBER 1 TO 4

(master code) is a 10 digit code, based on the phones IMEI number.

Eg. To remove restriction on lock 1 type following code:
#pw+(master code)+1#
If you just want to check your phone use 10 random numbers Eg. 1234567890 as the (master code)
eg. To check if phone if restricted on lock 1 type the following code:
#pw+1234567890+1#

Bypass the SP lock With a Nokia 16xx/21xx/31xx/51xx/81xx

1. Insert SIM card of different provider.
2. Turn on the phone and press the UP VOLUME key for 3 sec.
Then release it and the phone says PIN CODE?
3. Press the "C" key.
4. Then Press * and wait until it disappears and appears again, then press * one more time and 04*PIN*PIN*PIN#
