   If a SIM card is not already inserted, Phones running Android OS 4.x may see a message to Insert Sim Card. For dual SIM phone models, only a single SIM card can be fully supported. If you see this screen, please turn the phone off to insert a SIM card and then restart from the beginning.

4. Activation Code & Visibility

   Enter your license code and tap Activate. Please wait as the software activates. You will then be asked to set your software visible or invisible. Tap Yes to hide the software icon or tab No to keep it visible in the App Drawer.

   Congratulations! You have now completed the software installation. However, to remove traces of the installation, please follow the steps below.
