How do i rest my phone,when i locked for got my pascode and dnt remember my number? I have a LG Cosmos 3.
To unlock the password on your LG Cosmos, you need to re-program your phone. This will default the code to the last four digits of you cell phone number.
You First need to temporarily activate the ESN (also known as MEID, HEX) off the back of your phone underneath the battery to you Verizon Wireless cell account.
You can change the ESN (Electronic Serial number) as follows:
1.) Verizonwireless.com
2.) Dialing *228 opt. 1 from the phone you want to activate, while the current activated phone is off
3.) by calling customer service to temporarily activate the phone (1-800-922-0204 or *611 from a Verizon Wireless handset not involved.
(note: most all phones, even if their locked should still be able to call 911 and the programming number (*228)
You can activate the phone for a day to an existing account just to do this if necessary.
Once you change the ESN on to a phone number and program it
Dial *228 on your phone, listen in and pick option 1 for programming.
after listening to music for about a minute or two you should hear "programming completed successfully"
Once you hear this you can hang up the call. The phone should reboot by itself.
If not power it down manually and then power it right back up.
now you should be able to unlock the phone with the last four digits of you cell phone number you chose to activate it too.
