Here's what I did:

1. go to www.tracfone.com
2.click on service and support.
3.click technical support
4.enter your phone's serial number (you can get that by clicking on your phone's prepaid icon, then scroll down until you see serial number.
5. Click select

6. write down the number

7. On the Tracfone serial number box, write your serial number.

You'll then have to fill out a brief form (name, address, phone number, email, nature of the problem).

8. Tracfone will send you an email with simple instructions on how to reprogram you phone. It's usually just a matter of clicking Code Entry Mode and entering the codes Tracfone tells you to.

All in all it's pretty easy and a whole lot quicker than calling tech support on the phone.

Hope this helps someone

I need a free unlock code for my net 10 network so I can use my sim card & services on my Samsung Galaxy note 3 cell phone?

TracFone Wireless, Inc. Unlocking Policy TracFone is working with manufacturers of mobile wireless devices to pursue secure solutions which would allow for unlocking of devices without jeopardizing the security of those devices. TracFone will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that mobile wireless devices are capable of being unlocked domestically without compromising TracFone's ability to protect against unlawful distribution and use of such devices and without impeding TracFone's ability to protect its intellectual property. It will continue to keep the FCC apprised of these efforts on a quarterly basis. Once it achieves this capability with any given device, TracFone will permit its prepaid customers, upon request, to unlock such devices one year after initial activation, consistent with reasonable time, payment, or usage requirements. Currently, TracFone offers a Bring Your Own Phone program which enables consumers to utilize their own wireless devices, including unlocked devices, with TracFone's prepaid service.

I have a motorola w376 and tracfone is the service provider,but i want to use my cingular sim card in it. When i put my cingular sim in the tracfone it asks for a subsidy password. I have contacted...

The service provider does have access to the unlock codes for the phones. There are companies and programs that you can get that will give you the code, but these charge a fee usually. Try this, tell them you are traveling to another country and want to use a local sim card. Since this is a prepaid phone they should give you the unlock code anyway, you paid full price for the phone and they are legally obligated to provide you with it in most cases.
