I just bought a bold 9700 unlocked from AT&t in the US. But I am actually using it in Costa Rica. The thing is that it is supposed to be on the 3G band, but it is always on the EDGE band. Does anyone have an idea of what should I do to fix this. By the way, I went already to the carrier, but they just have no answer, they said it is a software issue.
Would I be able to use 3g and UMA on T-mobile's network if I am using an AT&T branded 9700?I am on Tmobile and am thinking of getting an unlocked AT&T 9700 from a friend but I'm not gonna buy it if I can't use it on Tmobile's 3g network and if I can't get UMA.
I have a sim free Bold 9700 (Vendor Code 301) that was bought from The CarPhone Warehouse and I'm on O2 - UK what version should I put in my Bold do I have to use O2's as that's my Carrier or can I use any as it is sim free and not locked to any specific network
I've unlocked a Videotron 9700 and tried to put in a Bell and Virgin Sim, with no luck on service. Still gives me SOS (whether 2G or 3G). Rogers SIM works tho. I realize I wouldnt get HSPA service, but thought I'd still get some service?
a bold 9700 and it is unlocked but orig from rogers. i am using it on fido and i have called them many times in the past 2 days to fix the problem i am having. i stopped using the phone for a few months as i was using an acer liquid phone. now i am back using the bb bold for various reasons and all i seem to be having is problems. the phone works when i am at work no problem but when i am at home all it does is search for a network. fido has tried adding an imei number to my account settings and we reset the phone from my end. this still has not fixed my service loss i have been getting. what settings should i have on the phone to stop this from happening? one of the reasons i had started to use this phone again was the fact that for some reason i had waken up in the am to look at my acer phone and it had told me that i had no service. so i took out the battery and the sim card and put it back in the phone and still i got no service. i put the sim card in the bb and i got the same thing. so i put the sim card into a non smartphone celly that i got and it worked fine now why would this be?
Have MTS SIM. Have BBerry & Data Plan. Have Voice Plan. Phone is Unlocked and used the TCP/IP settings posted online: internet.mts.ru UN:mts PW:mts I'm receiving all signals 3G, EDGE,edge, etc but it will not receive or send emails? on the Service Status it just reads Blackberry Internet Service and BES "Not Connected" How do I fix this and start getting my emails as I have used a few other unlocked BBerry's b4 (Curve, Old School side wheel etc) and never had email/bberry problems.
I have a Orange Blackberry 9700 which I have had unlocked. The phone is unlocked and reads the T-mobile SIM card, however I am having no luck at all with email and data facilities on the Blackberry.I have contacted T-Mobile and they have attemepted to send the service books to me however they are not reaching me. They have been through a whole host of procedures to try and get the problem sorted including doing a security wipe and also restoring the email accounts, I have tried to send the service books to myself through the BIS website as well.
It seems odd that I can not connect to the Blackberry Wireless Network because I my device pin is recognised on the T-Mobile website. I have tried to register the device using Host Routing Table but still no joy.If you have any clue as to why I can not access data services then I would really appreciate some help. I do have my data plan enabled, I know sometimes this can be a reason why people have this problem.

Help anyone? I have a 9700, originally from Telus. The phone was unlocked and I am now in Italy with a local SIM card. Phone and texting work, but I cannot setup email. The emails setup function in the setup routine will do nothing and the service status indicates that I am not setup. What do I need to do to get my emails? Is there an external website to set this up? When I inserted the new SIM card, I did get the SMS that the device is registered on the BB network.
I have an unlocked T-Mobile 9700 that I'm using on Cincinnati Bell Wireless.At certain points I still see T-Mobile screens or software displays - when I first open up the browser, when the phone first reboots, etc.It happens quickly and doesn't really bother me, I was just curious if certain software stuff like that was permanently set into the phone's OS even though it is unlocked and working well on another carrier..(I upgraded to .593 yesterday.)
I recently received a BB Bold 9700 that has been unlocked and I can't seem to get it to connect to the Bell Network. We have a sim card activated and it just wont find the network. Any suggestions as what is wrong or a step that I might have missed?
I acquired in Hong Kong the BB Bold 9700. I was told it is not a locked phone, and that I should be able to use it where I live. Indeed, as a phone, it is not locked, and I can do all phone functionality. However the following functions are not available and I wonder how to fix it: When I try to set email accounts, it only lets me the option to set enterprise server based email accounts; it does not let me the option to set Internet based personal accounts as appear in the manual I am also unable to use the device over WIFI networks; I can register them, connect and set them, but the actual browsing over the connection is not possible.
So, I just bought a JB'en iphone 3g tonight.Went ahead and unlocked it using ultrasn0w.Connected it to my mac/itunes, and it asks "an iphone has been previously synced with this computer. setup as a new iphone -or- restore the backup of ***"So, since I had purchased apps using my *** phone (actually was an ipod touch that i got rid of), I'm thinking that I should restore the backup so that I can get my paid apps back for free.
Questions: -will restoring this backup to the new unlocked phone restore it to its original locked state (i.e. will i have to re-jailbreak/unlock)? or will it simply restore preferences, etc...? -otherwise, if i call this phone a new name, is there a way to transfer my purchased apps to the new phone's account?

I bought an iPhone 3GS on iDay, and now wanna sell it in anticipation of the 4gen, OK, so I knew 3.1.3 with Modem 5.12 can't be unlocked, so I've kept hitting ignore on upgrade from 3.1.2, so I have 3.1.2 with modem 5.11 on there, so I think it can be unlocked no problem. OK, so my question is: How can I restore and erase all my info while keeping 3.1.2 intact? Just hit option-restore? THen how to jb and unlock? Blackrain and then how to unlock? And the last question, isn't there a way to upgrade to 3.1.3 while keeping 5.11 intact? Superbowl Sunday something?
I used redsn0w, hopefully that unlocks as well as jb. plan on selling it to a friend with t mobile, but want to know if its unlocked before i go over there .
I had a Gevey 3G SIM adapter lying around from the old iPhone unlocking days and plugged it into my T-Mo HTC HD2 with an AT&T SIM. Found the network ASAP and all call functions work.I can;t seem to get Data Functions working. I have added the AT&T APN and switched the bands to GSM 850/1900 mode and GSM for Data (not WCDMA) but no luck.
i am looking to unlock my HD2 tmobile version, without unlocking with custom ROM, so that i can also use it with a different SIM.please let me know has anyone does this with Tmobile version and if yes than what would be the cost of getting it done from someone.
I have an unlocked iphone 3gs that I want too use on my 3week trip to the USA....i did it last year with a $49 plan w AT&T but cant seem to find that offer anymore
How can I tell if my Iphone 3GS is unlocked. I bought it used and it still has ATT info on screens but the seller said it was unlocked. Is there a test or message somewhere?
I purchased a IPhone 4S from SFR and after completing three months, requested them to unlock my phone. They have sent me a mail that my phone is unlocked but actually it is not. I called the customer care of Apple to confirm that they have not received any request for unlocking my mobile. I am calling SFR customer care every week to solve this problem, but there is no response from their side.
I'm buying a unlocked iPhone 4s from craigslist tomorrow. I just need to know how I can verify if it is unlocked. I have an old AT&T sim card I used to use for my iPhone 4. Not sure if that would work. I just want to make sure it isn't sprint, or verizon with a bad ESN or something. I just want to make sure I can use the phone.
