Hi i have a question for you guys.
My friend bought bb torch and he didn't knew that is network locked. So he typed the wrong code number around 10 times untill bb reported code error and now he is unable to use it with sim card of another operator. Is there any way of reparing that? we tried to wipe it out and hard reset it but nothing worked:S
will it help if we load OS 6 again?

Hello,
I bought Blackberry 8800 on ebay. The device is locked with password but seller said its not. Now i got locked BB 8800 and not a single answer from seller. Ok, he lied to me but maybe there is a hope to unlock device ?
Device came with 5 unsuccesful tries to unlock so now i got 5 more tries (5/10). No way to get a password. Is there any method to reset device or load another rom. I've tried with Desktop Manager but it still need password to connect with device.
Can any1 help me with this ?
Regards

Hello.. this other day a friend came to me with hes and hes phones. both locked up.. reason: too many incorrect attempts to unlock and no way to recover it.. none of them have a Gmail acc and none of em have made a security question..
the one of them is an Xperia x10 mini pro (U20i) and the other is an LG GT 540..
i would like to find a way to unlock them WITHOUT having to whipe memory
Is the actual phone locked, or the SIM card? If it's the SIM, you just get PUKs from your carrier.
Also, when I did a factory reset, it did not wipe my actual data, but that might just be mine, maybe somebody else can explain.
its the pattern lock.. no sim is in either of the phones atm.. (i have tryed with and without sim nothing works)
can anyone help me?

Hi there!
I just bought a SE Xperia x8. It was Locked to 3 uk.
I used a unlock online service to unlock it. Did everything right as it was in the unlocking manual. But in the end of the process the software Multi unlocking client frozed. The know the mobile doessn't recognize any sim card.
In the hiden menu the X on the network lock is not there anymore as it was unlocked.
And when I try to connect to a network the message I get is "Your sim card does not allow a connection to this network"
I rooted it changed roms and the problem persists
Can anyone help me?
The Online unlocking service wants me to by more credits and try again....
Have the same problem... any fix for this?
I just opened my own thread for exactly the same thing last night - did either of you have any luck getting this fixed?
Oh God, I remember MultiUnlocker from my Palm Pre days. What a horrid piece of software it is.
I'd recommend contacting their support division and outlining your problem. I was able to gain the necessary three credits to unlock my phone (stupid bloody thing took that many goes).
It may prove problematic that your phone is kinda 'in limbo' ie. showing unlocked but not. You should be able to input a code from the emergency dialler giving you access to the engineering menu, which will allow you to re-lock your phone, then the code should work.
I'll subscribe to the thread in case you need further advice!
Hi, a family member passed away a few months ago and I was given her phone by her sister to use if I wanted. She had the phone and charger, and thats it. I stay in the UK and the phone I use is on O2. The phone she had was the Experian L but she had her phone through a contract with virgin media.
When I initally put my sim card in and turned the phone on it said 'virgin media, this phone has been reported lost/stolen'. In order to unclock it from this security lock I needed her insurance company(through virgin) to provide me with a 4 digit pin to unlock the phone. This was very hard to get as the insurance people are different from virgin media, but after a while they agreed to give me the code if I sent a copy of her death certificate in. I did this and got the code thankfully. I was told that I wouldnt be able to use my o2 simc ard in the phone because the handset was locked on Virgin. I was told if I paid £15 I would receive the unlocking code through the post in a week or so.
I did this and got a letter through the door with the instruction on for to unlock the handset. Basically its a 16digit number that I enter and the phone become unlocked. However, after all this Ive just realised I think there is a phone lock on the phone i.e. a pin she must have set herself? I think this because when I power the phone up without a sim, all I can see is the date/time, with her name underneath, and also underneath that is a keypad. When you press any button on the keypad and hit enter it says wrong pin? That happens without a sim card so I presume it is a phone pin lock she had on her phone is that correct? If so, is there any way around this? Ideally I would like to keep whatever pictures etc are on the phone however I realise that might not be possible. Ive tried to download the sony suite however it wont allow me to use the suite because it tells me on the computer I must enter the pin on the phone to continue! bit of a nightmare to be honest.
Any help/suggestions with what I can do? Many thanks
I cant unlock through Pc Companion because Pc Companion needs the screen to be unlocked before it connects the device, and I cant do that.
factory reset
Hello, do a factory reset to the Phone, but you will loose all the information on it
hi i recently purchased this j3 from a friend and it worked fine all i had to do was have it unlocked to work with my carrier this is where everything went haywire . after several attempts i finally received the unlock code and then when i put my sim card in it said too many attempts and needed a puk number i called my carrier and got it and entered it and didnt work i thought maybe hard reseting the phone would reset the amount of times ur allowed to enter this number i was wrong. so after some frustration i hard reset the phone a few times and tried every option that can be done in that menu now my phone wont even connect to wifi at the beginning of set up because it needs to verify my identity thru google account which that info i dont have this has become a horrible cycle for me and would apreciate any help or advice with this issue if u could email me this might be better my email is [email protected]
