If you are trying to use the Net 10 LG 300G phone with MetroPCS, it will never work. MetroPCS uses CDMA network technology (does not use a SIM card), whereas the LG 300G uses GSM network technology (with a SIM card), so the phone is incompatible with MetroPCS's network.

Two different and incompatible technologies.
