    I am locked out of my phone!

    Hello. I'm new here and i did read the rules, i hope this odesn't break one.

    I have a Motorola v300. The problem is, i am locked out! i forgot every code except for my sim card code. I cannot go anymore on my phone. if i try to go to settings, it asks for a 4 digit pin code. i forgot it though. is there any way i can get around this and do a master clear to my factory defalut settings?

    Same Problem

    actually i found a V300 on the train and was trying to figure out how to reset it to factory settings. will that Smartmoto and MSS thing reset it. Also is there a cheap (under $20) way to have someone do cuz I not looking to spend $200 to purchase a device to reset a phone i'm only gonna use every now and then.

    thanks in advance to whoever!

    yeah you see that lock code is to keep people like you that find phones from using them.. if its easy to get past it would be useless. best you can do is send it in to motorola with proof of purchase and have them reset it.
