- Take the device to the customer services area of the store.
- Tell the CS rep to do a return and re-buy since the device was not initially scanned properly.
- The rep would do the return transaction and put the refund on a store card/gift card.
- During the re-buy process make sure that they scan twice, both the UPC and the serial #. They would use the store card to pay for the re-buy.
- Check the receipt to confirm that it includes both the UPC and the serial #.

Without activation from the beginning, it will never ever going to be unlocked whatsoever.
Pros
- Nice build, even though plastic, the leather back feels nice
- 1080p 120Hz display
- Pretty solid upper entry-level chip, does not lag at all in daily tasks
- 8GB RAM means you can multitask
- 128GB + microSD, I don't take many photos or videos with it, but the storage is there
- serviceable camera array. Main camera has OIS, which is nice on a budget device. Ultrawide is there just to say it has an UW. Photos come out very processed, but fine.
- Dual speakers, not the best, but OK. Call quality has no problems.
Cons
- Heavy af
- Too tall due to giant bezels, taller than my S24U
- Coming from the S24U, the keyboard is thin, making each button skinnier so mistyped keys are more frequent
- Low light photos and video are potato if you're used to flagship, but still fine for a budget phone
- Screen is not very bright, will not be readable in sunlight or even some overcast days
- Motorola software lacks features that say, OneUI has, but some might consider this a pro - honestly back maybe 4 yrs ago, stock Android vs custom skins was great but now manufacturers have so many actually usable features in their skins that stock is a bit underwhelming

But what I will try to get these rebranded to TF and get a new $15 plan.
Also, did you specifically buy the phone, so that you could get it unlocked and use it with a different carrier?
If you wouldn't mind replying and share some more feedback about these deals that you reference, that would be appreciated.
I am an iPhone user. So my Android purchases are for unlock purposes only and give them to family & friends. Expecting the Edge to be unlocked in a month. 🤞🏼 Service is already stopped.

Has anyone experienced random button pushing while on calls from your face? It looks like the proximity sensor works where the screen is off but my phone is constantly opening the alarm or turning on the flashlight from the pull down menu. I can tell it's happening because I'm getting haptic feedback and tap feedback noises

If the carrier doesn't get this they don't have a sale record and refuse to activate it.
type "help" then "UNLOCK" to 611611 to see your unlock date.
