Hi, i recently bought a blackberry 8520 curve. It was locked on Virgin Media, so i unlocked it using freemyblackberry.com. I'm currently using Giffgaff, it works in the phone as 'giffgaff' appears on top of the screen, but i cant send or recieve texts and calls on my phone :/

ive put the settings in the apn right aswell, and also have tried the 'wipe handheld' option. still no luck

any help will be appreciated thank you

Do you have it set on it on 3G or 2G?

Try doing a master reset on the phone or updating the OS.
