Unlocking your Storm won't disable any capabilities or apps. All unlocking does is enable you to use the phone on a different carrier.

I mean this in the nicest way possible. But uhh, the questions you are asking are making NO sense whatsoever.

Unlocking has NOTHING to do with your data connection /services. Again, all it does is enable you to take your device to any carrier you wish provided the bands are supported by said carrier.

If PagePlus is your carrier, you are out of luck...they do not offer BB services in any way, shape or form. Flashing your device will NOT do anything for in the way of BB data services. You will have a useless paperweight on your hands...nothing more. The only thing you could hope to get from Pageplus is the use of your regular web browser, that's all and even then you're running the risk of it NOT working at all simply based on the way BB devices operate and their integration to BB data plans.

Buy a dumbphone if you wanna use PagePlus and save yourself the hassle.
