After the update the phone is showing invalid sim(bsnl).It is working with other bsnl network sim cards.When i approached sony people ,told me that they cannot give warranty as the phone is valid to use in saudi arabia & not in india.Now if i root it & downgrade to GB will i able to use the same sim.I don't want to use new sim with same number as the old one having lot of money.

I have seen OS6 from the same carrier on blackberry software download section which i prefer to use. If it allows, should i delete vendor.xml file?

Try the remote lock message (message you sent in the SMS to lock the phone remotely) as the memory card unlock password.I upgraded my phone from v210.21.006 to v500.21.009 today. Took all the usual precautions like removing remote lock (didn't reset the custom lock code to default) backup content to PC & memory card, then removed the card from the phone before upgrade. Then after upgrade and restoring settings inserted the card & was prompted for a password. Tried lock code/default lock code before and various other passwords before figuring out it might be the message text for the remote lock.

Upgraded to 2.2 using my home wifi. All seemed Ok and the phone rebooted.
I get as far as the opening screen showing the time and date but none of the four buttons along the bottom of the screen do anything. The only button working is the on/off button.
Tried a factory reset using the volume down and power button. Phone rebooted but I am still stuck with buttons that don't respond and I cannot do anything.

In linking to new Playbook, messed up and had to 'start again' with blackberry phone. Messed up also with my old password and after 10 tries it froze. I have gone through password reset process but still blocking me with the message: Your account has been locked. Please try again after the lockout period has expired or call customer service.Any suggestions other than a call to technical desk. I've been researching forums and seems to be the case that lock is indefinite. Incidentally, I didn't see the option after 10 tries to enter word 'blackberry' but it was late at night and frustration had kicked in. Possibly I missed that.

Can I use someone else's upgrade? Yes, this is called an "upgrade swap". AT&T will allow you to upgrade any line to receive a new phone. You can then activate that phone on any phone line you like. Apple is able to do this in store also, but it requires a bit more time since they have to call AT&T first. If you pre-order and recieve the phone by mail, you will need to contact AT&T to let them know that you will be activating the phone on another line."
My current situation:
I am on a family plan with a total of two lines. My line is not eligible until 7/23, so all I can get is "early upgrade pricing". My mom's line is currently eligible for "full upgrade pricing". I am planning on using my mom's upgrade to get an iPhone 4. I want to preorder the phone from Apple.com on the 15th, and hopefully receive it the afternoon of the 24th. From my understanding, the microSIM that ships with the phone will be programmed for the line whose upgrade was used. However, the iPhone Upgrade Guide makes it sound like I can call AT&T once I receive the phone (and before I activate it), and have AT&T switch the microSIM from my mom's line to mine. Is this possible?

i have an iphone 4 locked to at&t network in the States, it was used by a relative of mine who is no more working there. i want to legally unlock this phone and use in gsm carriers [mine is airtel india] here. i dont have the now discontinued at&t no.or other details. well instead of going for a illegal jailbreak or keep this technological masterpiece as a paper weight, i think i can do this. should i contact at&t if yes can i have their mail id, as the phone nos. i have seen here are not working, possibly coz of the time difference between US and India. i have recently loaded this with 5.1.1 os.

This morning my 2-yr old was touching my iphone and when I took it away, it says LOCKED SIM and wants me to enter a pin !!!
I tried twice and failed. I have only one last attempt left it says..I don't know what happens then and don't want to find out --;
Is it possible for her to have set the pin for the SIM card?? Because then I have NO idea what numbers she could have pressed.
But I had my phone locked all the time so she couldn't have gotten through my phone passcode. So I don't know how she could have set the SIM pin...
So now, nobody can get through to me because my phone is not getting any calls. I am able to access evertyhing else - mail, internet, contacts...

My phone was the unlocked version from Australia Apple store. After I have upgraded to ios 5.1, it seems that my phone became carrier locked.
It has no problem to use my usual 3 sim card. However, when I tried to use the sim cards of Telstra and and Virgin, it just shows "SOS Only".
When I tried these three sim cards in my iPad2, they are all working fine.
