You have to call customer support and ask them to re-activate your phone. You relied on something an anonymous commenter posted about three years ago that applied to his particular phone. Before that, in July 2010, I specifically wrote:
"I didn't have this problem myself, so I don't have any code. Also, I don't know that you can use someone else's code. Usually, when you have to go into code entry mode, you have to type a series of numbers, and I don't know if it's the same for all phones of a certain type, or whether it depends on your serial number as well."
Hope this helps.

Has anyone tried this recently? by: Lauren
I just purchased a Net10 phone - the Samsung T404g and the texting is showing as .5 per text. I did call Net10 and was told that the only 2 Samsung phones with .3 texts are the T401g and the R451c.
I was tempted to try the codes above, but I don't want to screw up my phone. LOL
Has anyone tried this on a T404g phone?
Curious, Lauren

Don't know if there is a general code by: sb (admin)
Hi,
I didn't have this problem myself, so I don't have any code. Also, I don't know that you can use someone else's code. Usually, when you have to go into code entry mode, you have to type a series of numbers, and I don't know if it's the same for all phones of a certain type, or whether it depends on your serial number as well.
