Just got a verizon blackberry curve 8330 off ebay, used a 9530 since december.I activated the phone today and under my mobile network it says Alltel, but I use verizon.

I get calls/texts, x1 and ev

Internet doesnt work, and I'm not getting emails, and no browser (tried pull and the routing host)

Using OS .77 right now, plan on upgrading when I get all this settled.

Anybody have a solution?

Try a *228 Option 1.

Then try to a register now - options>advanced options>host routing table>menu>register now

[boomshakilaka]

Tried *228 twice
and tried the Register multiple times

Neither work

Do you get a failed programming message with *228?

No it says it was successful, but still says alltel

My storm used to say verizon, so I am not sure why it different.

You can use your Storm to get the Verizon info. for programming your Curve.

To first link -

I think I understand that one but Storm seems to have same numbers except Primary HA address and second HA address

Storm - 255.255.255.255
Curve 0.0.0.0



As to the other link, it just kind of ends without a solution, the @vzw3g.com is already on mine.

Anything else I can try at home tonight, or wait and go to the vzw store tomorrow

Is the phone actually have Verizon on it or Alltel? Since they are merging and such!
I honestly would just try calling. I personally hate calling any kind of help line but sometimes it needs to be done. Good Luck!

Verizon, just found out about merge tonight, called and went through the host route like 4 times, no help
Said the alltel thing is probably why its taking a while
