1st day....... i was messing with the settings added my phonebook etc,

Your lock code is generally by default the last four digits of your
phone number. If your phone has never been programmed, try 0000 1234 or
other likely combinations. Also, having your MSL can allow you to
retrieve your lock code on some handsets, though I'm unsure of the Toshiba.
Good luck
