Ok this is my situation. I have a blackberry curve from tmobile. My sister got a new phone so she gave me her blackberry storm 9350. I went to a cell phone shop around my area and they unlocked the storm so i can use it with my tmobile sim card. I put on the sim card and i thought everything was working perfect but then i found out that i have multiple problem.
The good: I can make calls, i can use the internet.
The bad: when i place a call my sister number appears in the other person phone (not my tmobile number), i cant call my voicemail, cant setup my email, cant receive calls and more problems i still havent discovered lol.
Can you guys please help me out and advise me of what should i do. Thanks in advance.
Oh boy, the problems are now worst. I followed all the instruction posted here HowTo:Get All Features (Browser, MMS) Working on T-Mobile w/Unlocked Storm 95xx, and now i cant use the browser, before i did this i was able to do it. I need help guys i dont now what to do. I still cant receive calls but i can make calls (my number still does not come out). I also changed the number by dialing ##000000. What should i do guys?
Yes I still have my phone as a curve on the tmobile site, what should I change it to? I will re-do all the steps later on tonight. Hopefully it works out. Hopefully everything works out. Any other inputs? Thanks

Don't change your phone to anything else. Since the Storm isn't a Tmo phone, you need to have the Curve there so you can access the BIS section (to monitor emails, etc.)
1- From your Phone dial ##000000 press send. In the menu, change the mobile directory # with your cell # and select save. The phone will reboot.
2- Log on to your T-Mobile account and change your phone to a 9700
3- While in your account go into set up your email. look to the left and select "Change device"
4- Input your S2's pin and IMEI and save.
5- From your phone go to Options> Advanced Options> TCP> Now Change your APN to WAP.Voicestream.com (leave the User name and Password empty)
6- Reboot your device
7- Resend your service books
8- Reboot your device
This should solve your issues : ) I have unlocked several S2's and have done this exact process without having to use Crackutil or manually input service books. Give it a shot and I hope this helps!

thanks for the reply bro. But im having no luck with this setup, i thought it would be much easier. When i go to the tmobile site to setup my email, when i put the pin and imei of the storm it tells me the following: "The information provided is not valid for this service provider". Is there away i can start from zero and do this entire thing all over? I mean the only good thing is that i can make calls from my tmobile sim card but it makes no sense because my number does not come out. Also when i dial ##000000 the mobile directory # is my number but the line below "IMSI_S #: my sisters phone comes out. when i changed it to my number, i was unable to make calls, until i changed it to my sister number. This is so confusing ughhh!!!!!!!
I finally did it bro, i was screwing around with the setting and watched a video on youtube on how to setup an unlock blackberry. I went into option/advance/sim and then typed MEPD n then inactivated the sim, rebooted and bam!! lol. Thanks for your time man, appreciated.
