    Sounds like the phone has not been activated yet, in which case a call
    to customer service would take care of that.

    Complete newbie here with a question

    Hi,
    I just received my first cell phone in the mail an hour ago
    and I'm getting a "searching for network" screen then a
    "registering" screen then I get a message:
    Unregistered SIM
    1/1/00

    What does this mean? Do I have to call customer service
    to fix this?

    It's Cingular with a Moto v400

    Thanks....

    Just dial 611 on the Cell phone.

    They'll help you from there.

    Actually, it appears the SIM hasn't been activiated. The V400, being a GSM
    phone, is not technically activated. The SIM is.

    it means your phone isn't activated yet. Yes call CS or go to Cingular store
    to activate the phone
