Since getting my Hermes (SPV M3100) I've had the same code for unlocking my phone. However, the other day my messaging program crashed, which it does sometimes, so I rebooted the phone and when I put my code in it said it was wrong.

I'd just reflash it, but to sync it needs to be unlocked. Ideally I want to keep all my messages and contacts, but if anyone knows how to reflash it then that'd be awesome too.

I'm currently using a pink phone which doesn't even have a vibrate function. It's a bit of a nightmare.

Can anyone help me? x

Does no one have any idea?
Is it an expensive paperweight?

You've probably lost all data that you didn't have backed up, but hopefull the phone isn't a write-off. Do a hard reset by holding both soft-keys while pressing reset, and if that doesnt work you can put it into boot-loader by holding 'ok' and 'power', and pressing reset.
Make sure you read up on hard-spl and flashing from sd first.
