Droid X locked after Factory restore

[FrankDX]

hey whats up im kind of new to the droid game...

well i was going to buy a droid x this weekend but a buddy of mine sold me his and he claimed it lost. So i factory restored the phone and now its locked it says i have to activate the phone and it calls verizon for i can activate the phone is there any body that can help me unlock the phone or what can i do to unlock it

This is a really bad idea. If your friend claimed his Droid was lost, Verizon will mark the esn and probably won't let you activate it.

I hate to tell you this but it sounds like your buddy is committing insurance fraud and not being a friend to you at all. The phone will have a bad ESN. Verizon won't activate it.

I'd go get my money back, from this so called "friend."

once you claim your phone is lost. The ESN is locked and can not be used. You "friend" pwes you some money if you bought it from him.

Really Bad idea all around. We are only going to be taken seriously if we stop making sneaky moves. Get your money back asap.
