galaxy s2 stuck

Hi all,

My first post here. Just got a galaxy 2s set it up and all was working well for about 12 hours. Made my first phone call ended it then when I came to use it again the screen was stuck on the dial pad saying emergency calls only. I press the home button but it wont leave the dial screen, same if I press the back button. I have re started the phone goes straight to dial screen, also removed the battery made no difference.

But I am transferring my old number over to this new phone and was told it will take about 48 hours to complete. Do you think this is the reason my the phone is stuck on the dial screen and I'm unable to access any other facilities?
 
Sounds to me like you have a 'previously owned' phone there.

Could become interesting if the previous owner has installed security like FaceTrap or some trackers on it! :D

In fact that's exactly what it sounds like: the phone worked for a while, getting tracked and building good documentation, and then the device was remotely blocked. :D

The doorbell should ring any minute now... :D
