The factory default code is 12345, and that is what your phone will accept until it is changed.

If this happens, your phone will not accept a security code for about five minutes, even if you enter the correct one. You can still use your phone, but any attempts to enter the security code will reset the timer. Once the timer has elapsed, you may re-enter the correct security code to access security code protected features.
