My daughter wanted to swap phones with me (her Samsung E250 for my Sony Ericcson K550i). I was able to master reset my phone to clear everything (after saving all piccies etc on my laptop), but her Samsung demands the password. This was on the box it came in originally (she never used it) but we can't find the box. Are these passwords phone specific or is there just a general password which you use before putting in your own. Anyone suggest what the password might be?

0000 ?

Tried that and tried 1234. But I don't even know how long it is? I even tried 123456789. I don't think they are phone-specific, but they might be. Anyone else got a suggestion?

0000 OR 00000000 are the company defaults.
If they don't work, it has been changed.

Needs an engineer if thats the case
