Tracfone offers prepaid cellular service and a variety of different phones to its customers. The Motorola W376g is one of Tracfone's popular "flip" phone models. This cell phone comes "locked" from Tracfone. Locked is the term used to describe a phone that is programmed to only work with a particular service provider. Through the use of a special code, you can unlock the phone to be used with any service provider that uses a SIM card.
Instructions
1. Turn off the phone, and remove the battery.
2. Write down the International Mobile Equipment Identification (IMEI) number, and replace the current SIM card with a SIM card from a different provider. Dialing "*#06#" will also display the IMEI number on most phones.
3. Choose a company that specializes in cellular phone unlock codes, and navigate to their website (see Resources).
4. Fill in the required information about the make, model, network, IMEI of your phone and your contact details. Order the unlock code, and wait for it to be delivered to the contact email.
5. Turn on the phone with the new SIM card inserted, and enter the code provided by the company.
