Forgot password of MMC

28 replies · 28,659 views · Started 28 March 2004

I forgot the password of my MMC card. I want to use it in other 6600 phone and I can't. Is there any solution? Even if I have to format it.

I have the same problem and next problem is, that I can't read MMC in reader. Reader says: "No disk". Is any solution?

Ismail: It worked for me and I think I have the lousiest card reader ever. It's an ECS that comes with some motherboards...
puffler: Have you ever read any other cards with that reader? I'm saying this again: some card readers require that software be installed before they recognize some/all types of cards. Mine does.

Hi everybody!
I think card reader cannot format the MMC locked by password. In this case, Ghostmars try to search on phone memory a file named "mmcstore". This file contains the password for MMC. Copy this file "mmcstore" to PC, rename it to mmcstore.txt for viewing in Notepad. You'll see the password there.
Good luck

Yes...

Extras\Memory\Options\Format mem. card

Make sure ur 6600 has sufficient charge for this operations, of course.

How do I seach for "mmcstore" at the phone without using bt-adapter?

Maybe this will help:

When you lock the MMC in Nokia 6600 there is a file inside the phone that store the password of MMC.
Use seleq programme go to c:\system of NOKIA 6600 and there you will find a file called MMCSTORE. Send this file to your pc via irda or bluetooth and rename it to MMCSTORE.TXT. Open it with a text editor and you will see the Password.

That's correct!

But if I dont have ir or bt-adapter? Then I can't send the program to the phone, or send MMCSTORE back to the computer?

Do you have SeleQ on ur phone? Try this app to open "MMCSTORE" file

Hi Friends how r u ???
yaar my cell phone memory card is locked and i have format my cell phone
nokia 6600 so i can not access my card i don't know my password & my cell phone
mains my phone memory is format all the clear so my memory card is locked
so any body help me thanks plz replay soon

3 days ago my card just prompted me for a mmc (SanDisk card) password--which I'd never set!

I did an online search & found that many people, particularly nokia symbian users are experiencing this problem.

Most people online advise that you download some program; set the remote lock;or format your mmc (yikes!!)

I tried the 1st 2 suggestions, without success. Formatting the mmc is a big no! no! for most of us!

So what did I do now?

On my Nokia E50:

1)Go to MENU-->then SETTINGS.
2)go to SECURITY---> then PHONE & SIM.

This is the key to it guys (at least it worked for me!):

3)on "Pin code request", mark the option as "OFF"
--in other words, no matter what phone you are using, you should note have a pin code for starting the phone 😉

[But then because I was not sure what I was doing, I just turned off all the codes & marked the "Lock if SIM changed" & "Allow Remote Lock" as "NO". - But I don't think that's necessary..but I did it anyway.]

4) Final step is to SWITCH OFF your phone.
5) Now switch it on again.

--The phone will no longer request a pin code.
But if you have set a lock code, it will request that--which you know😊

BINGO!! All the stuff you stored in your mmc is there now😊

SO please, don't format your cards people!

Thanks for reading this essay.

Be blessed😊
