What model lg?<br>
I had a g4, and there are some good roms available for it that actually get regular updates.<br>

<div class="m_-1340011448384980371HOEnZb"><div class="m_-1340011448384980371h5">Out of the clear blue sky my cell phone has asked for a secondary<br>
security password -- apparently linked to my email account. But that<br>
password doesn't unlock the phone and I have no memory (and no record)<br>
of ever setting a secondary password for this phone. Manufacturer's<br>
help desk (LG) and carrier (T-Mobile) unable to help. Manufacturer's<br>
rep told me to send the phone in to the service center -- in Fort<br>
Worth, TX -- but that requires a proof of sale, which I no longer have<br>
(or if I do I can not find).<br>
<br>
Does anyone know of a way around this mess -- or an entity in the<br>
Atlanta area that can unlock this thing?<br>
