MVX501 phone? The company I bought it from and would get minutes from was bought out by Cingular which is now ATT/Cingular. However the phone number itself has been reassigned to someone else, so now I need it reprogrammed with a new number. I just don't want to spend the money on a new phone if this one can still be used. I just need it to make and receive calls, that's it, an emergency phone so to speak.

From the research I have done it can be re flashed my T-mobile Nextel Verizon and POSSIBLY Alltel

just call the company,they will activate for you
