I have purchased one unlocked Blackberry 8800 from Amazon.com, I am trying to use this phone in India with one GSM mobile services provider, but every time I insert the SIM card I am getting - Insert SIM card error message. making my phone work.
View 2 RepliesI have an oldish 8800 unlocked, that was a used in Australia (Telstra). I have bought with me to Malawi, and put in an Airtel SIM and subscribed to BB here. Current device s/w is 4.2, and I am trying to upgrade to 4.5, however via the Web (BB site) I get "no updates available". Using a freshly downloaded BB Desktop Software, it tells me a 4.5 Bundle is available, but just after initiating, I get "There was an error updating your software. Please try again".

I'm trying to wipe the IT policy (it's a bank, they lock BBs down with manacles and three-headed dogs) so my daughter can use it, but it keeps failing when I use BB Desktop's "Reset to Factory Settings" option:An Error Occurred While Resetting to Factory Settings"
View 1 Replies View RelatedI bought a real 8800 original a while back and decided to upgrade. I got online the 8800 carbon arte, but when I got it in I realized it is a fake (a nice fake, but a fake).Now I'm not sure if I should keep it and sell my old 8800, or send back the 8800 carbon fake? I cant afford a new carbon as they are well over 1grand.
features on the fake seem to be all except no pc suite option (USB gives me com port, mass storage, webcam) and no touch option. Im also assuming that the screen isnt durable.Other than that, the firmware seems to be the same (from what I gathered online)What would you do? Keep the original 8800, or use the newer 8800 carbon fake?

If I buy a Blackberry 8530 without a simcard, can I use WiFi to use the browser and messenger?
Or what if I have a blackberry with a sim card but the phone service is cut off, will WiFi still work?
I bought a new Verizon 8830 World Edition unlocked from ebay. I confirmed that its unlocked from MEPD command (although it says Network: ''Inactive'' instead of 'disabled').I tried using various GSM network SIMs (India) in it and everytime, it shows an active tower and full signal levels and displays the name of the network correctly. It looks as if its connected to the GSM service at full signal.However, placing calls fail and any call made to the number gives a 'Switched Off' message. i have tried: Battery pull & Wipe out.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm thinking about upgrading from a Pearl to a Tour (both cdma) so that when I'm traveling in the U.S. I can unlock it and use a tmobile or at&t sim it, to cut down on roaming costs. I'm confused as to how it works though. If I put a sim card in there does it completely negate the cdma portion of the phone...using the sim card provider's data/text messages/voice plan or is there a way to access both the cdma and sim card at the same time?
For example I'd like to use my cdma text package and data while using the voice/talk time portion on the sim. Is this possible? Sorry for the noobie confufflement
My son is visiting Las Vegas this month and was thinking of buying an unlocked 3GS i phone. Will it work in the UK.

I just bought 2 iPhone 4S in Boston, as factory unlocked. When trying to activate them they don't recognize the SIM cards. I even tried the SIM that I'm using in my 4S, but these two look like they are locked. The receipt states ,,Unlocked". can they be locked and marked wrong? Can Apple support ,,unlock" them online if they turn out to be locked?

I have Lumia 810 from T-Mobile and unlocked it with a code, that was provided to me by T-Mobile/Nokia. Now trying to use this phone with another GSM carrier, makes me wonder, why would T-Mobile/Nokia disable the option to change/add apn settings? So only calls and sms would work on other sim cards! The internet and mms feature is blocked, because T-Mobile settings are hardcoded into the firmware! I have Lumia 710 which is also T-Mobile branded, but there is a button "add apn" under settings>cellular. I don't know t-mobile chose to do it or nokia, but please add the above option via OTA update, it is really needed!

View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently tried to upgrade my Blackberry 8800 4.2 to 4.5. The upgrade was completed but the phone went off as soon as I finished, and would not come on. I took it to a phone shop and they were able to put it back on. BUT, it just goes off, reboots and on by itself intermittently, and this has gone on for three days now. What do I do to make my phone function properly?
