For example, FCN 0 000000 000000 RCL is default. For other security
codes, try 123456, 654321, 0 + zip code, or 000 + last three numbers in
cell phone number.

You can put the ST7868W into test mode to view and change the security
code and lock code. Do not mess around with other settings!

To enter test mode, press:
FCN, 0, 0, *, *, T, E, S, T, M, O, D, E, STO

You will then see a US ' prompt.

Enter 5506#

The phone will display the security code. Change it to the default by
entering 000000, then press STO. The ' prompt will reappear.

Next enter 5507#

The phone will display the lock code. Change it to the default by
entering 123, then press STO. The ' prompt will reappear.

Finally enter 01#. The phone will reboot and return to normal mode.
You can now access all of the StarTAC's security settings using the
default security code 000000.
