Hi I am new to the forum.

I have obtained my unlocking code for my w950i, yet it says for me to press * move joystick left twice then press * again to allow me to bring up menu to enter the code yet this doesn't seem to work. Anyone have any ideas?

Many Thanks

Matt

You need to use the jog wheel as the joystick

It's left, *, *, left for the unlocking menu.

Or, if those instructions for the W950i are correct, it would be up, *, *, up.

Don't do anything with that screen unless you need to unlock your phone and have the correct code from the network provider!!

Just forget it exists!
