Take it and your receipt to the local Nokia Care Center. They can fix you right up. Because security codes being placed to protect the information of the owner of the device this forum is slow to by-pass that function - no matter how good, or true, your story is.

Since you set the security code it is going to be a number you created and can probably recreate if you relax and think back to when you set it. You've eliminated two possibilities already.

All the more reason to take it directly to Nokia. If you haven't got a clue, then the possibility of screwing up the N900 is high if you try to hack your way into it past the security code.

Reflashing it will not reset the security code. That survives the re-flash from all reports I've read.

First of all, please learn how to write in proper english!

Secondly: There is no way you can "tap" accidently on the secure device thing or whatever.

I smell something bad behind this.....
(Something like this!!!)

just call nokia care center and tell them your story. if your device is under warranty, it will not cost you anything but if it is not then they might. it will take about a week. i hope this helps
