As noted by a number of players, the code on the first door would reset every time you looked at the phone, which was annoying, since you needed to look at the phone to solve the puzzle.
It turns out this was actually worse than it sounded. The actual code wasn't reset, just the appearance of the buttons, so the code the player saw and the code the game 'saw' were actually different. Clicking on any of the buttons would cause that button to resync, so its possible to get through the door if the player only ever clicks the buttons that ought to be on.
