One other note about Audiovox phones. If the phone is a CDM-4000 or CDM-9000 series, you can determine both
the phone unlock code and the programming unlock code by putting the phone into “Test mode”.
To do this, repeatedly press power while holding down RCL, 2 and *. Once the phone is in “Test mode”, you can
determine the phone unlock code by pressing “1 2 8 Send” or the programming unlock code by pressing “1 2 7
nd
Send”. The code will be the 2
, 4th, 6th, and 8th digits of the number displayed on the screen.
If the phone is not a CDM-4000 or CDM-9000 series of phone, you can display the phone unlock code by pressing
“# 5625 *” (“# LOCK *”) or by pressing by pressing “# 5625 Send” (“# LOCK Send”) while the phone is locked.
Select the first option to view the code.
Kyocera
Most Kyocera phones allow you retrieve the ESN by going to Menu\Phone Info and scrolling down to view the
ESN. You can also access the ESN in the NAM menu. To enter the NAM menu, perform the following steps:
1.Press 11 11 11 and select “Options”.
2.Select “Programming”. (On newer Kyocera phones, you must first select “Services” before you can select
“Programming”.)
3.Enter the correct Security Code (usually 000 000).
4.Once in the NAM menu, select “ESN” to view the ESN.
Kyocera is one of the few manufacturers that produces several models of single NAM phones. You can tell if the
phone has more than one NAM by the structure of the NAM menu.
Dual NAM structure Single NAM structure
ESN ESN
NAM1 Info Basic NAM1 Info
NAM2 Info Extra NAM1 Info
Rental Timer Rental Timer
SMS Settings SMS Settings
Phone Model Phone Model
Slot Cycle Index Slot Cycle Index
Service Security Code Service Security Code
As noted above, if the only entries for a NAM are Basic (and Extra) NAM1 Info, then the phone in question is a
single NAM phone.
LG
LG is quickly becoming a very popular phone manufacturer, and along with Nokia,
is becoming one of the first MEID adopters. When an LG phone has an MEID, only
the hexadecimal version will be printed on the label underneath the battery and the
decimal version will be found in the NAM menus. Also, like Audiovox, LG

categorizes its phones by family or series. Most LG phones made in the past 3 years follow the “VX” series of
phones for programming.
Like most other manufacturers, only the key sequence to access the NAM programming differs. Once the key
sequence has been entered, you simply enter the correct Security Code (usually 000 000) and then select “Service
Programming” to enter NAM programming (and the first step in LG NAM programming displays the ESN.)
The second step in LG NAM programming is, usually entering the MDN, followed by entering the MIN, Home SID,
and lastly entering a Label (or name) for the NAM which would be displayed on the screen to identify it when
selecting NAMs. LG, in a fashion very similar to Samsung phones, allows access to NAM2 solely through
Extended NAM1 Settings.
When you have finished basic NAM1 programming on an LG phone, you are given the options of “Exit” or “More”.
To access NAM2 settings you must select “More” and then simply select “OK” until the option to edit NAM2
settings appears.
Key sequences are listed below, and in order of oldest to newest.
LGP versions Press Menu 9.
320 and 330 Press Menu 4 0.
100 and 500 series Press Menu 3 0.
Most VX series and oth-
ers
Press Menu 0 or OK 0.
Press ##PROGRAM[Model Number][Send]
Newest VX Series
The sole exception to LG’s consistency is the LG Migo (pictured at right) which is an actual
working cellular phone designed quite literally for children. To program one of these, you
must press “Yes 1 4 Yes” within 10 seconds of turning the phone on. If successful, the LG
Migo will display “Successful”.
Motorola (ESN Retrieval Only)
If the phone has a Function key, press FCN 00 ** 83 78 66 33 STO # 38 #
If the phone has a Menu Key, you will need to find a submenu labeled as “Device
Info”, “Phone Status”, or “Phone Info” (for clarity’s sake, this submenu will be
referred to solely as “Device Info” in this guide.) You will normally find the “Device
Info” submenu in one of the following paths:
•The two digits appearing on the right side of the screen are the first two digits of the Hexadecimal ESN.
•Press * to advance to the next two digits.
•Repeat until you have the whole Hexadecimal ESN.
•In the Main menu.
•In Main\Settings.
For example, to program the VX-8550, press
##77647268550 [Send]
