Hit the wrong damn button, and now it's asking me for some damn code to unlock it. AGH. I can't find the stupid manual that came with it either.

call the cell phone company |
|
it means you put in the wrong security code too many times. Your cell phone company will give you the code to unlock it.
BEWARE, if you put in the wrong unlock code, you can mess up your phone or smart card.

1. if you've never set a password |
|
try 1111
But don't try too many times, or you can lock it for good (well, until the company can address the issue).

they've got the code somewhere. If you can convince them you're who you say you are, they'll give it to you.

5. I've tried every 4 digit same-number code. |
|
I'll give em a call tomorrow I suppose. It's not that I use it very much. I just hate doing stupid crap like this.

That was the factory install password for our phones.

8. From what I've gathered, it only takes 4 digit codes. |
|
Maybe I'll just chuck it out the window.

What phone is it? I'm sure you can find the manual online. I'll help if you tell us what phone it is. :-)

11. It's an Audiovox something-or-other.... |
|
Good idea though. I'll look for the manual online later. I have to take the case and battery off to get the model number. No worries. The store where I got it is closed until tomorrow, so there's no huge rush. It's just maddening trying to figure it out.

That's it. I'm sending your picture to Wonk for some Photoshopping goodness. Do you prefer thongs or "Daisy-Dukes"?

12. Default number is the last 4 digits of your phone or |
|
social security #.
That scared me so I had changed mine when I got it...
Hope either of those works!

It was the last four digits of my phone number! You win the (cheap) prize of your choosing!
