If your display reads No Service or doesn’t change to the idle screen when you turn on your phone, and you know you are in a Boost Mobile coverage area, contact Boost Customer Care.
The SIM Card The SIM Card Your i55sr phone comes with a built-in level of security protection through the use of the SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card, which you should have already inserted into your new i55sr phone. The SIM card stores all your Phonebook information and your Boost Mobile account identification information.

Changing the PIN NOTE: In order to change the PIN, the SIM PIN security feature must be set to On.
NOTE: Before you begin, obtain the PIN Unblocking Key (PUK) code from Boost Customer Care, then read and understand the PIN unblocking sequence. When entering the key press sequence, each key press must occur within 5 seconds of the prior key press. To unblock the PIN: IMPORTANT: If you unsuccessfully enter the PUK code ten times, the SIM card is permanently blocked and must be replaced. If this happens, all data will be lost. You will get a message to contact your service provider.

See “Detaching the Battery” on page 8. 2 With the antenna facing away from you, and the back of the phone exposed and facing up, locate the SIM cover and gently push it forward. 3 Hold the SIM card with the gold contacts facing down and the clipped corner in the bottom left.
