    i get 17 digits for my IMEI am i suppose to erase a number?
  • mobileslate
    none69: Try giving the 17 digits to Customer Serivce, I believe they can sort out which digit to dismiss. My guess is it will be the last number.

    Do i do this with the old or new sim card in the phone?
  • mobileslate
    J: Any AT&T SIM card, old or new, inactive or active will work.

    lg gr500 01179300526618102 unlock code please
  • mobileslate
    sameh77: This site provides instructions on how to unlock. There is no universal subsidy unlock code for the device, so I cannot give you a subsidy unlock code that will work for your specific phone.

    I bought my unlock code on line and then i put in my boost mobile sim card and the code unlocked my phone but it's saying that my service is unavailible what do i need to do to change this?
  • mobileslate
    melissa1026: Boost Mobile will not work with this device because it uses a different radio technology than AT&T.
  • bernard
    thanks for the instructions.
  • bernard: Glad that it worked.

  • sofia: You need to contact the Customer Service department for your mobile operator. They need to give you the configuration settings so that you can access email, picture messaging and more.
  • myrna
    i have a question in order to unblock it for picture mail does it have to be with a at&t sim card..my phn is already unblocked for calls but i flashed to tmobile and they are telling me that in order for internet to work i have to get a smart phn internet plan instead of just a regular one..
  • myrna: So the LG Xenon you have has already been Subsidy Unlocked and you are using T-Mobile? Now you are trying to get picture messaging to work on T-Mobile? If both are true, you need to sign up for a data plan. Subsidy Unlocking a device gives you the freedom to pick which mobile operator, not give you free services.

  • mobileslate
    tayzer: If the devices is permanently unlocked, you can try to perform a Master Reset. If that doesn't work, then the device is permanently locked.
  • tayzer

  • mobileslate
    tayzer: If the device is permanently locked, there is not a way to Subsidy Unlock the device.
