* If you received multiple codes from us in the format below, use the Phone freeze instructions above.
Example:
NETWORK=xxxxxxxx; PROVIDER=xxxxxxxx; SUBPROVIDER=xxxxxxxx; DEFREEZE=xxxxxxxx

First of all, we do request you contact the service provider to make sure after unlocking your device, your unlocked phone will be compatible on their network.

If you are unsure of this, please contact them regading this.
After unlocking your phone, please pull the battery for a couple minutes and then restart the device. It may take a few minutes for your phone to pick up the new signal.
