QUOTE(WN16 @ Dec 17 2009, 03:46 PM) Hi I'm new here. I just bought a new unlocked BB9700 from the UK and I have never use a BB before. I went to Celcom to change my current plan to one with unlimited internet but they told me that I need some kind of PIN and ID. Can someone please tell me the procedures..?? Many thanks. WN For PIN, U can get it by take out the battery and look into the sticker. or On the phone, Setup Folder --> Option --> Status --> PIN For ID, I think is IMEI not ID Press *#06# |

Thanks for the info, Sampride & Mikelanding.
I hope it will work. Some retailers at Blue Cube said that there is no unblocked blackberrys. But the one I bought says that I can use any service providers as it is unblocked. So I am rather confused!

QUOTE(poque @ Dec 21 2009, 11:24 PM) Mine bought bb bold 9700 last weekend, price 2200 @ss2..., bb with 'at&t'(not sure is it version or what) & the sales guy said its already unlocked ver.,try to download the app, but failed & also cannot send sms too. Went to maxis & they said my bb not fully unlocked(only can call & received sms only) & ask me to check with shop where i buy it...really upset, you pay more than 2k & cannot send sms lah(cheap hp below than RM100 still can sms...). Decide to meet the sales guy today & suddenly he said that my at&t bb cannot use maxis sim card because maxis technology is advance from the firmware in my at&t bb(only digi & celcom can work), luckily he promise to change my bb to new t-mobile ver.(according to him this model can work with maxis sim card)so need wait for my new bb tomorrow.. A BlackBerry is no ordinary phone, u need to do research 1st |
