To activate the Samsung I300/I330 please call Verizon Wireless at 800.922.0204. To activate you will need to provide the 11 digit decimal ESN (electronic serial number). The ESN number is located on the label on the outside of the box. You may also obtain the ESN number by removing the battery and locating the serial number sticker.

To do this open the phone mode by pressing the phone button located on the right hand side of the unit. Then press#907*9#0 and it will ask you for your lock code which has been defaulted to 222222. Next you need to select phone # which is option 1 (select number 1 on the key pad) and input your new Verizon Wireless phone number and click save and then click end and your unit will automatically reboot. After approximately 1 hour after registering your number your new service should be active. You will not need to over the air programming by selecting *228 on the phone as your new phone has been preprogrammed.
