I just got a sanyo 8200 from my friend.
But I don't know how to activate it...
the label on the back is lost, I couldn't find the ESN..
Is there anyway I can check the esn from the phone itself??

No, the MDN is the phone number currently assigned to the phone. The ESN is the "electronic serial number" unique to that specific handset.
