Unblocking The Pin - Motorola iDEN i80s User Manual

Unblocking the PIN

If you forget your PIN and unsuccessfully enter it three times, access to your
phone will be blocked.
NOTE: Before you begin, obtain the PIN Unblocking Key (PUK) code from your
service provider, then read and understand the PIN unblocking sequence.
When entering the key press sequence, each key press must occur within 5
seconds of the prior key press.
IMPORTANT: If you unsuccessfully enter the PUK code ten times, the SIM card is
permanently blocked and must be replaced. If this happens, all data will
be lost. You will get a message to contact your service provider. If the
SIM card is blocked, the i80s phone only allows outgoing Emergency
calls.
To unblock the PIN:
Press * * 0 5 e.

Disabling/Enabling the PIN Requirement
When the PIN requirement is enabled, you are
prompted to enter your PIN each time you turn
on your phone. Until a valid PIN is entered, you
can use the phone only to make emergency calls.
After the PIN is accepted, the phone registers on
the network and the Ready screen displays.
When the PIN requirement is disabled, the phone
can be used without entering a PIN.
IMPORTANT: If you disable the PIN requirement, you remove protection of personal
data on your SIM card. Anyone can then use your phone and access your
personal data.
