N95 & Swisscom Invalid SIM

I changed my UK Vodafone N95 (Code 0547869) to product code 0536062 (Euro1 Plum) which enabled me to update to firmware 12.0.013. I thought that would also unlock the device and enable me to use my Swissom SIM. Alas 'tis not the case, I still get 'Invalid SIM' when I switch the phone on.

Also, when the device is in this state, it isn't recognised by PC Suite or Nemesis.

Do I have to change the code to a Swisscom one? If so, which?

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Change of the product code DOES NOT unlock handset. It does not work on N95 or any other modern Nokia. However Vodafone should provide you with unlock code if you ask them (for money).
