| What phone do you have? What carrier are you with? What exactly are you seeing displayed? Your question is too vague to allow anyone to properly help you.

I would almost guaranty that the OP bought a Euro tri band phone ( 900/1800/1900MHz) off eBay. And needs the 850MHz band for use on AT&T in his area, which the phone dosn't have.
