Just remember, don&#8217;t turn on the &#8220;SIM Lock&#8221; feature on a V3xx until Motorola\/Cingular issue a fix unless you have another GSM phone around to correct things if you have one of the broken v3xx&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>I verified that my V3xx has this problem and notified Cingular.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apparently, many (but not all) Motorola V3xx phones from Cingular have a problem where they will not work with a locked SIM card.
