I just want to say THANK YOU!!! I have been searching the net for 3 hours trying to figure this out. I even called Tmobile and got nothing. Thanks!

the jump+shift+s works... let it reboot, and it will ask you to log in if your sim card is inside after doing so, all the settings are automatically reset

I have the same situation with a Sidekick 3, got it from someone and cannot get pass the 3 digit lock. Will these steps work for it also? Has someone been able to do these steps successfully?

1. Enter the Emergency Calls Only Screen
(UPPER LEFT HAND BUTTON AND LOWER LEFT HAND BUTTON TOGETHER)
2. Activate the System Bios Reboot
(HOLD THE LOWER LEFT HAND BUTTON (JUMP BUTTON) AND WHILE HOLDING THE JUMP BUTTON PRESS SHIFT AND S ALL AT THE SAME TIME.
THIS WILL BRING YOU INTO THE CALENDER, THEN JUST PRESS THE BACK BUTTON....

Dude, jump+shift+s hasn't worked since OS 2.0 came out like forever ago. All the "known" ways to bypass the security lock on the SK2 have been fixed on the SK3. If you have a privacy lock on a device, call your carrier. They can clear it for you. If it's not your phone, call the carrier and they can help you return it to it's rightful owner. Sorry to all the people with stolen kicks that can't use 'em.

also works on sidekick 3, no problem to by pass 3 digit code

[dadeboy_305]

there is a way and i did it this morning but i dont know what combo i used. the phone was in privacy lock then i went to emergancy calls then did some menu shift combos and it ask me if i wanted to factory restore which wipes all data then the phone restarts and your unlocked

try the letters like on the q side

feedback if this works for ne one else

[dadeboy_305]

this was for the sidekick 3

[cooldude_zach]

but the reset code (entered at the emergency phone call screen is [Menu button] + [Shift] + q

[dillon626]

the dude who reset it by fooling around with the buttons got it right... i just did it BUT now it says "Waiting for Activation"... i bought my sidekick used too and i called up t mobile but they said my phone wasnt registered. does that even matter?
