HARD-LOCKED Phone: MEP Code (0 Left)

[AsianGurl4U]

Hi everyone,

I have a BlackBerry Torch 9800 that needs to be unlocked. It's teling me to enter the Service Provider MEP code, which I did many times very carefully making sure I'm not missing a #. But it wouldn't accept it, and I used up all 10 goes. What do I do now?

If anybody can help me (and doing it for free, cause I don't have a credit card to get my phone unlocked online, and I'm not going to a phone booth either cause my folks would disapprove of me paying $20 or more just to unlock a phone), that would be greatly appreciated.

Some people are saying that when all 10 goes are up, it's permanently locked to the carrier. Others are saying that it's not locked to the carrier - & I can still get it unlocked.

Someone please help me - I'm leaving for the U.S. in 2 months on a 1 week business trip which involves needing my phone to keep in contact with my business partners there.

You cannot get it unlocked. It's impossible...

RIM can. But they won't.

Before you get your hopes up, check my post count.
I'm right. I promise.

You need to find a shop that offers DM3 Unlocking in order to reset it.

They will need to physically access the device via the USB port.

Deathcommand, it is not impossible. A new process it out that a tech can unlock your device remotely via PC. Not cheap as licensing techs is involved and takes about anywhere 1-4 hrs to make an appointment. But it can be done.
