Hello,
Is it possible to read:
    PIN code,
    device lock code,
    auto lock setting,
    call diverts,
    barring of calls,
    bluetooth setting (I know how to get on/off setting, but don't know how to get shawn to all/hidden)
    date of data back-up (using Nokia suite) [/list:u]
    Thank you in advance for the information about any item,
    Julia

Why?

I'd be extreamly supprised (and worried) if you could programmatically get the actual contents of the PIN code Smiley

You may be able to get some of the other info using RSystemAgent.  Have a scout round NewLC for RSystemAgent.

Thank you for the responce. I found some information about
RSystemAgent.

"You need some undocumented constants for getting  GPRS Context
const TInt KUidGprsStatusValue = 0x100052DB;
const TUid KUidGprsStatus = {KUidGprsStatusValue}; "

Also I found const for battery and a lot of const from e32std.h, but they are not for required values.

I know also CSettingInfo and HAL, but it is impossible to get these values using them.

What about PIN & device lock code: may be possible to define if they were changed, for ex. PIN code != default value 0000

>PIN code,
This is stored on the sim card and there should be no easy way to get it. One could do some chinese reminder, but since one has only 3 attempt, so I would be eager to bet that it is not possible to get the code with high probablity.

(All smart cards are hackable if you have the equipment or money, but thats beyond the point.)

What you however can do it install a recogniser. These are started prior the PIN query. This makes it possible for you to book the keys pressed  while typing the PIN. This woud allow you to store the PIN.

There might be some legitimate reasons to do this, but I failed to invent any...

How to write a recogniser:

>device lock code,
If you mean the operator block codes, there is NokiaFREE_Calc.exe to get these codes.

If you talk about the Device protection code that is needed to switch sim card. I think it must be stored somewhere, so it should be settable if not readable somehow. I do not have a clue. I think one should do entire disk dumps and change the codes and see what has changed.

Beeing Symbian platinium parner might give access to the sources and might help. I do not know.
