Re: sidekick slide HELP!!!!
Ok, heres the steps i took and they worked! So
WHEN I MENTION "R" OR "X" I MEAN THE LETTERS NOT THE BUTTONS ON THE SIDEKICK LIKE THE TOP RIGHT BUTTON OR THE X, Cuz ppl have had problems cuz of that simple mistake.
Step 1 start up your phone without the sim card in it
Step 2 press menu and go to setting and then go to system info
step 3 press menu shift key and X at the same time (then it will ask you are you sure you want to erase press yes)
step 4 press menu shift key and R at the same time
step 5 restart your sidekick without the sim card in by pressing 1 0 and the @ ( sim card should not have been inside to begin with) hold the R button down the phone will restart let it restart 4 times then let it go and let it boot up completely
Step 6 Insert sim card restart your phone enter user name and password and your all set
OK SO DO THESE TELL ME IF THEY WORKED AND TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT HAPPEENED "EXACTLY" !

my friend had the exact same problem when he received a phone from his friend for his birthday. he simply resolved this issue by calling the tmobile company and explaining his problems and in a matter of minutes they fixed it for him
