Initial Lock Code
The initial lock code value is determined by your service provider.
For service provider configurations that do not require account activation, a default lock code is set at the factory to a value determined by the service provider. For assistance, contact Sprint (page 27).
Configurations that use the Activation Wizard set the initial lock code to the last four digits of your account phone number whenever a new phone number is activated.
After activation, you can change the lock code (page 50) from the initial value to any
Note:
The security lock code is reset to the last four digits of the phone number whenever an account is activated. This may change a custom value you have set.
