Hi everyone,

I just came back from Korea, where I had an Anycall SPH-W4950 Samsung Phone. In the US, I can't turn it on. I would like to use it as a phone, but even if I can't I would like to turn it on, since it had a good dictionary on it. I tried everything I could think of, but nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated.

Also, if this helps, it's not a SIM card phone.
Thanks

As for it being a CDMA phone, US CDMA provider as strict about activating phones that are not branded for their own company. Sorry, but I think you're out of luck on this if intended to activate the phone on Sprint or Verizon.

insist insist insist. If its a smart phone that will require a data plan, they will most likely activate it.
