    Do you have the box for this phone? If so, look for the PRD# and do a web search for it. A carrier may pop up.

    If you are in the US and have an STV100-1, it can be from only two carriers: AT&T or T-Mobile. If there's no logo on the phone but BlackBerry's, it's a TMO phone. But if you see the AT&T logo (looking like this image) then it's an AT&T Priv.

    Bring up Main Settings and scroll down near the bottom to ABOUT. Post which model or version you have.

    You can also look from bootloader

    1. Switch off the phone
    2. Hold volume down + power for 5 seconds
    3. Choose "Barcode"
    4. You should see your product+carrier. In my case AT&T Priv is (veniceatt) >> Venice is their internal designation for Priv

    Are you certain it's locked to a network? Have you tried putting your simcard in it to test it out?

    It's either from Asia or a Canadian carrier.

    Where did you buy the phone? Can you contact the original seller?

    Priv is not the kind of phone that gets copied. It's just not popular enough worldwide, not to mention it has a unique build and screen etc. So it's a real phone. Iphone or samsung have fakes. Not BlackBerry
