    Just an FYI to help out---a test call on Verizon is #832 and not #83.

    I have a Casio G'z One. I have the ability to assign a picture to a contact entry in my phone book. But the picture comes up on my screen very small. Is there a code to enlarge the picture.

    No such luck. The size of the picture is what it is.

    Re: Helpful Verizon Codes

    Can these be used on an unactivated phone? I'm having trouble with my verizon account.
    I joined up with VZW, but to get my password, they keep texting me on my unactivated phone, so I'm not getting the password. Can anyone help?

    Re: Helpful Verizon Codes

    Concerning the *288 codes, what does the space after the *288 mean? Is it the # key? I also tried dialing *288, then waiting for a prompt to dial 80, 99, or 00, but I got a "Call cannot be completed as dialed right after the *288.

    That's because it should be *228, not *288.

    Re: Helpful Verizon Codes

    Paulcman I am referring to the:
    *288 80 - force update, ignore fails
    *288 99 - force seconday tower update
    *288 00 - original tower update

    codes NOT the *228 roaming update codes. My question concerns what I press between the *288 and the two digit 80, 99, or 00 codes. I've tried several things, no dice.
