Here is a quote: “About CDMA Unlocking & Reprogramming: Unlike GSM cell phones, unlocking the phone is not enough to make it work because instead of using a sim card, the data used to connect to a network is stored internally. Some CDMA providers put a lock on their phone to block it from being programmed. This is referred to as a SPC. (Service Provider Code) The first step to reprogramming a phone is determining if it has a 6 digit SPC lock code set on it or not. If it does have an SPC lock then it must be read and re-written to 000000 before it can be reprogrammed. After a CDMA phone is unlocked or if it doesn’t have an SPC lock it can be reprogrammed by writing a script to the phone that installs a new PRL file.” Reply • Posted by: Josh June 10, 2008 at 10:50 am EST That is 95% correct on CDMA not using SIM cards, except
