BB Bold :: "Invalid SIM Card" + Network Blocked?
Jan 16, 2012
I upgraded to a new Bold 9900 in November with T-Mobile, and went to Dubai for winter vacation in late December. I frequently visit there and have a local SIM card, and previously I used an unlock code from the internet to unlock my old Bold 9700 so that it accepts the Dubai SIM card (and for the past year and a half I been using this unlocked Bold). I tried doing the same thing like I had done before this time around with my new Bold 9900, but like an **bleep** that I am, I used up all ten MEP code tries with the device, and now the phone network is blocked. Every time I put in either the Dubai or T-Mobile USA SIM card, it says on the top "Invalid SIM Card". Also after rebooting, it always asks me that I need an unlock code to unlock the card, but when clicking "yes", it just does not do anything, same thing goes with clicking "no." Now that I am back in the US again, the US T-Mobile SIM card still does not work with the phone. If anyone knows what the right procedures are to go about getting my blackberry working again and getting the network block to go away so I can start using my T-Mobile SIM Card?when I go to the SIM Card settings on the device, it reads: SIM: Disabled Network: Blocked Network Subset: Disabled Service Provider: Disabled Corporate: Disabled Once again?

Hi,I have an issue with my 9900 as it reads invalid sim and the network status is blocked.I had a relation residing in the USA buy it for me.it's a branded T mobile phone which she supposedly paid for the unlock and apparently she had exceeded the number of unlock code trials with a wrong unlock code.

A Verizon Storm2 I bought used from a Vz customer who switched to an Android. Sold me the phone without the Vz sim in it, I didn't know I needed it. Got an unlock code and tried to enter ir with the T-mo sim in it, says no valid sim card.Always comes up with "do you want to enter MEP unlock code" after pulling battery, but when I press yes nothing happens. This is with the original Vz sim installed which I realized I did need to enter the unlock code.Going to the sim screen shows "no valid sim card" so I can't get to the MEP2 screen to enter the unlock code, this is with the original Vz sim installed.I want to use this on T-mo but am willing to register it on Vz long enough to unlock it, but even Vz says it's blocked.I really need a clue.

I recently updated my blackberry software. EVerything worked fine, I has no problem updating. When I put my new sim card in (brand new sim, never been used), my phone registerd me on the verizon wireless network, even though I am livning in south africa with a south african sim card. I can send sms and make phone calls, but that it is! Before I did my sim swop and system update, everythin worked fine on this phone. I cant bbm, use the internet etc etc.I have tried everything. Tried to resend registerstation message, manually connected to 3G vodacom network and resent registration msg. I have called my service provider. I have rebooting. I even tryed restoring data from a recent backup i did when my phone worked, and that did nothing. EVERYTHING, and im on my final straw. I just want a working phone.

I've been having issues with my calls failing for about a week or two now. It doesn't happen every phone call. But when it does, it seems to be at the 0:22 or 2:00 mark of the call. Quite strange. Once it happens, it continues every call afterward until i do a battery pull.
And since I updated to 5.0.0.681 a couple days ago, twice or three times it's said "Invalid SIM Card" and I have to reboot my phone. Not sure the reasoning behind this. I saw a couple threads in the Storm and Curve boards but, didn't see any solutions. So, thought I'd ask here to see if anyone else has had similar issues.

I am trying to upgrade my BB Bold 9700 via the blackberry automatic web site. I also have downloaded the 9700 software from TMobile. I have upgraded and restored my BB9700 3x now and each time after upgrading, it prompts that my SIM card is invalid, and thus I do not get any service. I can restore my BB9700 to an older version, then everything works just fine. I don't get why I am unable to upgrade to the newest 5.0 software though?
I've tried the upgrade via the Desktop Software...
I've tried the upgrade via the Blackberry Website auto update button...
I've tried the upgrade via TMobile's bbugrade site as well...
All tries do the same, my SIM card after the upgrades is "Invalid"...Does anyone have any answers on how to fix this, or do I have to stay with the older versions to keep my phone working.

I have had my SG2 (On three with "all you can eat data") for about two weeks and the last week I keep getting a tethering block, several times a day, when using internet or network error while using apps. this can only be fixed by rebooting the phone. I have not used the phone for tethering or as a wifi hot spot so don't know why its doing it. I have replaced the sim card and done a factory reset on the phone but it is still doing it. When I get the error in the internet app there's a link to the three website which does work.

Myspace account stopped sync and updating in the happenings. so like twitter, I deleted my account and re-added, but now I cant re-add my space account at all! It keeps giving me the message "Your entry is invalid, please try again."I keep trying it everyday but no use. It also disappeared from the status bar (where i post my happening status to social networks). Why can't I re-add my myspace account? it worked before resetting the phone. everything works fine and all other social networks like twitter, orkut and facebook work fine ,but not mypace. I tried logging in to myspace from a PC and my login worked fine. I even created a new motoblur account but no use.

I bought my Motorola RAZR here in Dubai, Middle East, and it's working just fine except for one issue that occurs on a daily basis;The phone suddenly loses signal and shows "invalid SIM card"! It lasts for a maximum duration of ONE minute and then the signal is back and the phone behaves normally.I thought it only happens when I'm in low 3g coverage areas but it happened to me twice today!I had the same SIM card on my iPhone 4 and my Motorola ATRIX and never faced a similar issue...

My phone (galaxy S5) worked very well with my carrier (Videotron). I had a problem connecting to the data so I called videotron and they told me to come in the store to fix it. Not really knowing what i was doing and being a little bit impatient I was looking through the settings of my phone, trying to figure out what was the problem, when I found the Activate this device tab. I then proceeded to clear my "cellular data'' by pressing the 3 dots on the top right corner. After this, it said ''invalid SIM card'' and I've reset de device twice, went to the videotron store, contacted Samsung. Still no solution.

I have a blacberry working with Orange France. I had an error message when I pulled out the battery (App Error 523, reset" ). So I send the firmware 8520M_PBr5.0.0_rel661_PL5.2.0.31_A5.0.0.411.exe, and he could start.
However, when I put my sim card (working on my nokia) , it doesn't work (invalid). I've asked for an unlock code, but when I enter it, the BB freeze (I always have 10 tries). I've tried with another simcard (Orange, SFR...) and the result is the same.

I have a problem (and so do all my colleagues) with BB Bold 9780.When someone, who's phone # and the name etc is stored in my Address book calls me and my device is locked (it gets locked if not in use for 10 minutes) what I see on the screen is the phone # of the caller, but no name. If device is not locked - the name of a caller appears along with the #.This is very uncomfortable, because I do not remember the # of all the people in my address book, so when there is no name - I don't know who is calling.

I've seen some fixes for this error on other OS versions, but none specifically for 7.0 on the Blackberry Bold 9930. I was trying to download My Verizon Mobile and got this error.
