I had someone bring on an LG Dare that had "Service Required" on it and no signal.

I tried writing the ESN to the phone, the PRL, and even restore the phone. I get an error that says "restore not available" when I try this.

As a last ditch effort, I tried to rewrite the BIN, PRL/SCR to the phone and that still didn't do anything to fix the problem.

Any suggestions?
