  • Unlock a Blackberry

    Does anyone know how to get the unlock code for a Blackberry Storm 2, Preferably for free.

    I was given the phone when the company I worked for closed, but it is on T-Mobile. I need it to accept an O2 sim.

    Thanks

        Think I'll give up on this.

        Lots of sites offering 15 min service. Every one wants paypal account for £3.99?

          I had the same issue a while back with a blackberry as well

          in the end I used these guys (cost me around a £5 or so for immediate delivery with superb after support as well...)

          Unlock your Mobile Phone online. Unlock mobile phones by code quickly and easily to use your desired network carrier sim card

          one thing you could try..maybe call t-mobile see if they can unlock the handset?

              I know this sounds silly but have you tried using it with your O2 sim? I can use O2 in my old T-Mob handsets because they were compatible at one time (but not with Orange or Vodafone). BlackBerrys may be different though.

                Hi PlanB,

                Yes, I tried the O2 sim. It asks for the unlock code.

                  make sure it isn't locked down or even the code to unlock it won't work, i know as hubby unlocks phones for a living .

                          Thsnks s2m,

                          They have sent the codes, 4 of them to try.

                          After 2 attempts there were no attempts left, so it is locked out of changing the codes completely now.

                          Is there any way of resetting.

                            Good morning , just asked hubby and he said normally you get 10 attempts on a Blackberry ,but you can also take it to someone who unlocks phones and they can reset it for you .

                            Hope this helps and if you need anymore help just ask

                              Thanks s2m,

                              I need to change the screen as well, so I will take it somewhere. I think that someone had tried before to unlock it, although it was new when I was given it at work.
