i got one unlocked as a gift, and tried it with att sim card and it worked but now that i want to get service with metropcs thay say is not gonna work, has anyone tried with metro pcs?????
i wanna buy a storm 9500 so con anyone give me some piece of advise i live in france so i don't know what that means for the net work and does it has screen problems or not ??
Most likely youre phone is not unlocked. If it has a carrier branding such as Verizon you should get it unlocked first before using it with any other GSM carriers. Since your saying you inserted a T-mobile SIM card and it didnt work that tell me that your blackberry most likely was originally from Verizon and you tried to use it when it is not unlocked. So you first have to get it unlocked. Hope this helps if you havent already gotten your problem resolved.
Ok, two things...Firstly, the Storm is a World Phone. This means it's a dual mode phone, supporting both GSM and CDMA technologies. Secondly, it has a 3.2 mega pixel auto focus camera...NOT a 3 mega pixel. Not trying to be rude, but you sounded ignorant explaining this phone. Do your homework of the product you are selling.
Sorry to inform you but you got your fact totally wrong buddy. Youre the one that should do the homework before starting to correct other people. The phone you are taking about is 9530 from Verizon. But this phone on the review is the 9500 quad band version used in the European countries. Over there they only use GSM and sometimes HSDPA 2100MHz on some carriers so does not use CDMA at all. You got the major part of ur argument wrong.
One more thing I should add to my comment is that the term world phone you have used does not mean it has dual mode of CDMA and GSM. You got that totally wrong as well. It just means that it is Quad Band phone and supports frequencies 850MHz, 900MHz, 1800MHz, 1900MHz of GSM technology used all around the world. I may be wrong but I think only S. Korea and Japan still use CDMA. So basically CDMA is useless in almost all around the world. Thats why world phone just means quad band phone.
Does any1 know how to get rid of the "activation required" text on top of the time? My blackberry storm is unlocked from Telus and is functioning on Rogers network.
To remove the "activation required" message at the top of your screen requires provisioning from your carrier. Just call them up and tell them you need to provision the Storm for their network and a tier 3 tech support agent will take care of that for you.
yes and no, it can work on any GSM network like the guy said At&t T-mobile and oversea carriers like Vodafone (UK) it would not work on sprint or Verizon unless you buy the CDMA storm.
We purchased a Verizon "unlocked" Storm and we are having problems with it working on ATT and no one will help, ATT will not support the phone and told us to return it, don't know what to do, any help???
No sorry, alltel is a CDMA network which means they can't be unlock. Only GSM phones with carriers like t-mobile, at&t can be unlocked. Good question! :)
where can i find an unlocked blackberry storm vodafone version in orlando florida?? please help i´m writing from venezuela and i going to go USA this month.
if they put this baby on at&t instead of the bold i'll buy it not unlocked. cause it's stupid verison have all the good phones not one of thier good phone service is not unlocked.
the presenter has absolutely no reason ever to be in front of a camera. his skills at entertaining us with such a magnificent phone is completely absent and his insecurity with the phone is so obvious.
No buddy I mean the 9520. It's the Storm that's coming to Rogers early next year. In fact it could be early as Feb. This one has Wi-Fi and can work on ATT G3 network.
sadly most people doesnt pay attention to the technical specifications or customer reviews good example ipods wiis apple computer all piece of junk and money eater
glad iam not one of them and if you ask me who iam? thats my secret xoxo
iphone might not have the best specs but the main reason for its popularity is the variey of apps and stuff ucould do with it wich in the end makes up for its not so great specs thats why its cool
yah more of a hightlights then a review, however the storm looks alot better after a couple of updates i think in a month this is gonna ge a killer phone.
I'm disappointed in bauer, he made it perfectly clear in a previous tech update that he didn't like the blackberry storm. Yet here he is singing it's praises in this "review"
no u don't what that cause soon n97 will release soon, if u have tried touch screen u know taxing isn't hard but not as good as with keyboard, i got the omnia i900 love it no complain its a great phone but i would rather wait until n97 release.
its cool that they are offering it and its tempting to get but $1000 is an och = to 2 Nokias N 95 or like 3 Iphones and 4 Verizon BlackBerry Stroms and in my case AT&T and T moblies signals suck where I live even though they state/claim the have very strong 3G and edge signals in this area I'll ttyl
need help!!!!! can you text and go on internet on a gsm unlocked phone ....tell me please anybody...!!!!!!!!
