special formatted SMS message to your phone.

message to your phone (input your 10-digit Sprint PCS Phone
Number) in the following format:

ESN (Electronic Serial Number), which is written
on the package or on the phone itself.
The locked phone will display the following message:
“If found, please call Sprint Customer Service 1-888-211-4727.”
