Verizon Activation - Symbol MC9000-K/S Reference Manual

Verizon Activation

The Verizon Activation Wizard allows manual or automatic activation. To activate the mobile
computer manually, the user is required to enter a 6-digit activation code, phone number and other
identification codes. To activate the mobile computer using the automated service, the mobile
computer attempts to call the network on a special number that automatically downloads the phone
number and identification codes from the network.
Regardless of the method used to activate Verizon wireless service, Verizon automatically downloads
the provisioning data. This process is invisible to the user and occurs once, after account activation,
during the first data connection attempt.
After a mobile computer is provisioned for Verizon wireless service, it is strongly
recommended that no Sprint loads are downloaded to the mobile computer and no
changes are made to any of the provisioning information.
To activate the phone using the Verizon automated service:
1. Ensure the mobile computer is in a strong signal area.
2. Tap Start - Phone - Tools - Activation Wizard... .

activation provides all required codes and identification numbers over the network. No
additional activation setup is required.
