Hell of'va name!!
You will need a non Non Vodafone SIM with no PIN code.
Please read ALL of the instructions below before you start.See: "Note:If nothing happens."
below.

Did you check with IMEI: *#06# , Firmware Version: *#0000# .
Nokia:6230i
IMEI:357098003734186
Network:Vodafone
Country:Ireland
Is this correct?
If you know the risks, try this ONCE and ONLY ONCE and let us know if it works. You
have only 3 to 5 tries and then it will be hard locked. After that you will need a cable
thing-a-me-jiggy to unlock it. It will still work on your Network so no big loss.

Remove sim first,power on the phone.
After the phone boots up, press #
Press * 3 times fast for (p) \
Press * 4 times fast for (w) IMPORTANT
Press * 2 times fast for (+) /
and the rest of the code---
IMPORTANT!!
Verify code before pressing the last #.
Pay attention. You only heve about two seconds.
Note:If nothing happens. Some Phones require that you to insert a non accepted sim.
Before you do this, make sure the sim and phone you use does NOT have a Security or PIN CODE.
If it does, reset the security code to default (12345) with the original phone. Insert a
non accepted SIM and turn it on. You will see "phone restricted", select the UNDO option,then enter
the "#pw+code" code in the restriction box and press ENTER.
"Phone restrictions off", it's unlocked.
"Error code" wrong code. STOP tell me.
"Not allowed" or "Can Not Undo Restriction" it's hard locked. Used up all your free tries!!
DO let us know if this works.
Help us provide a better service.

Please do not try again until we know what happened.
Did you put in a non vodafone sim first?
Did you see UNDO?

That is the only code I have.
Confirm the phone is locked to Vodafone.
You put in a non Vodafone sim.
You turmed it on.
You saw Phone restricted and an UNDO option.
You selected the UNDO option and entered the WHOLE code I gave you.
#pw+927842241530655+7#
You pressed the # key.
You pressed the * key three times quickly to get P .
You pressed the * key four times to get w.
Etc. etc and pressed the # key.

What do you mean nothing happened?
What was the message on the phone after you entered the code a second time?
I have heard of ONE 6230 phone that took the code with no sim in when the cade was entered. That's the next step.
I do not have another code for you.
This code is good.
Does the Vodafone sim work in the phone?
Have you tried a new sim in the phone?
What sim are you trying to use?
Is the new sim activated and working?
Too harrdd!!

Joe,
When I put the code in it now says cannot undo restriction.
I don't have a vodafone sim, the phone belonged to my friend and he gave it to me and I'm trying to put my O2 sim into it.
I also tried it with no sim in it and when I put in the code it only gives me an option to 'clear'.
You say 6230, this is a 6230i, should that make a difference?

That's where your problem is.
You got the phone with no sim.
You cannot verify it works with a Vodafone sim.
You tried to unlock it and failed .
You then came to us.
The code is correct.
Someone has tried to inlock it and entered too many wrong codes.
It is now hard-locked.
You will need to take it to a phone shop that has the equipment to unlock it.
Have a look at this. It is the first Thread on this Forum.

I have no financial affiliation with this Site. I am acquainted with it and the work they do there.
There are many.
