Subsidy Password (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The term Subsidy Password is used by Motorola and other handset manufacturers to refer to the 8-digit unlock code necessary to remove the operator lock from cell phones. This code is randomly assigned to individual cell phones by the OEM on request of the mobile service operator and prevents the use of a particular phone on a cellular network other than that to which the phone was originally sold.
