Well I just got a use SK3 from a friend because he switched back to his MDA... I an going to use it on prepaid, so when I got the kit I put it in and his old username it registered to the phone... So I called tech support and they are telling me that there is nothing we can do, its not like the SK2 where you can delete that info and start over... I'm sure there is a way, can someone help me out.. I'm going to call up again today and talk to someone else...

i dunno..When i got my SkII about a week ago they had me do a flash reset or something i dunno if it was a hard reset or what but i had to hold down the reset button and the power button and it reset the username so i could make my own.

Yes I know that on the SK2... yI don't remember how to do it, but when I called TMO about doing it on a SK3 they said no go, it cant be done...

I'm not sure, but do this.

Press the "r" key
Press the power button, turn it off.
While holding "r" press the power button, let it reboot.
This will do a hard reset on the sk3.

Call back, all you have to do is tell them you bought a sk3 from a friend and his username is still in it.

Actually..call tmobile and ask them to transfer you to the sidekick department and then tell them your situation. It takes like 5 minutes for them to erase the username and have your sk3 fresh like you just bought it.
