My SIM Card Came Locked! How Do I Unlock It?
When you receive your device, the SIM card may be locked by default. If this is the case, before you can connect
to the network or register your new device account, you’ll be prompted to enter a PIN. The default PIN is
provided by your wireless carrier. You can always change your SIM PIN using the Key Guard & Security screen.

Can I Remove My SIM?
Yes, you can; but we recommend you never remove the SIM from your device. Without a SIM card, you cannot
place phone calls to 611 (T-Mobile Customer Care), but you can call 911 (Emergency). You can only view data
