Give Samsung a call and see if you have the same *cough* luck *cough* I did.

Yeah i tried it. He said he put random numbers in. Is there anyway i can get around this. Even if i have to erase everything. I dont know much about this stuff

from http://support.t-mobile.com/knowbase...ic/tm30122.pdf

"When the Phone lock feature is enabled, the phone is
locked and you must enter the 4- to 8-digit phone
password each time the phone is switched on.

The password is preset to “00000000” at the factory."

I just got this phone and i let my buddy check it out..... Well he was being an idiot and locked my phone and now i cant use it with out a phone lock code.

Its a Samsung T-509
is there anyway i can hard reset it.
If you need to know any more info for this phone just let me no. Thanks
