    After I type that in, it says can't undo restriction.

    Any thoughts?

    WHAT "CAN NOT UNDO RESTRICTION" & "NOT ALLOWED" MEANS


    When you have seen the message (Can Not Undo Restriction) or (Not Allowed), it means one of the following:

    1.) You entered 5 or more wrong codes into your phone. Some models only allow 3 chances.

    2.) The phone was bought off Ebay and the seller did the same as above. This may be why they sold it.

    3.) You have browsed around looking at other peoples phones and assumed the code that worked for their model, would also work on yours. All IMEI numbers are different, which means every code for different phones will be different.

    4.) You kept entering the same code over and over when seeing "code error" the first time. You should only enter a code ONCE!!

    YOU ONLY GET 3 TO 5 CHANCES TO ENTER THE CORRECT CODE

    Yeah I probably put in a code a few times before this post. The weird thing is I am only trying to use another sim that's on the same carrier (AT&T). so basically I am stuck with this phone only working with my sim?

    It is most likely Cingular.
    I'll bet a Cingular SIM works in it.
    Just as well you used up all your free tries before.

    This is not correct for this phone.
    You need to do some more homework before you offer codes.
