9630 Tour for T_Mobile

BigEd2 · Thread Author #1 04-11-2010, 03:30 AM

Seriously people.....None of the "blackberry experts" None of the crackberry fanatics know why T-Mobile cannot support the 9630 Tour from Blackberry? Come on people this is a joke. I have spent hours and hours of phone time with T-Mobile and blackberry and noone from T-Mobile (except the last individual I spoke with could tell me you cant ...CANNOT use the blackberry Tour with T-Mobile. My question is WHY NOT? It is a blackberry highly popular phone why wouldnt a major carrier (so called) be able to support a phone from a major company? Who knows? Its Silly....But they will give you the run around like they can and they will tell u try this and try that and then lead u into dead ends..WHY The only thing I think is because they dont really want you to buy a phone from another carrier...Come on people "they cant support the tour" This is a major cell phone company and they dont know how to put the browser on the phone. This is a joke... With all the technology in this world today and crackberry? Noone not one computer geek or cell phone guru can figure this out? This is all a scam by the phone companies to get you to purchase there products and there products ONLY. What has me disappointed is that noone from the so called blackberry community(crackberry) has figured out a way around this. T-Mobile is a joke of a company and I cant really speak for the rest but saying you are not able to support a phone from a majot company such as Blackberry is just a JOKE. Think about this people

So... I'm confused. Who are you mad at? Crackberry? Tmobile? Blackberry? or All three?

This is one of the least coherent posts I've seen in some time. No explanation. No details. Just complaining.

If you can describe your issue in terms that are not so vague and arbitrary, perhaps one of us can help

Ok here we go...I purchased a 9630 Blackberry from a friend which was a Verizon phone...I have T-Mobile I had the phone unlocked and was told by T-Mobile that I just need to get it switched over..I was on the phone numerous times with T-Mobile with basically the same result no browser no pic messages no bb messenger...WHATS A BLACKBERRY without those.....It just another cell phone.

You should have done some studying on the 3G bands your Tour could operate on versus what bands TMobile uses. Pretty much you should be mad at yourself for purchasing something without knowing if it would work on your network or not.

Don't depend on ore people find out for yourself before being mad at anyone

Not being an a$$ just giving it to you straight.

ok crackberry Brandon I am ignorant to all of this and very new to this crack berry thing. Im not worried about what I spent on the phone I just dont understand How a MAJOR company like T-Mobile isnt capable of handle a phone ...They have 3G but only for the BOLD that is crap.. The phone says it runs on 2G and 3G and T-Mobile said they phone would work so I did research the situation

Okay, I read your rant and thought about it.

I have owned 4 Blackberrys, and always could use the browser, picture messages, text and BB messenger on T-Mo.

Usually I ignore rants like yours, but I always think the source of the problem is the USER, not the Blackberry, and in this case, not Crackberry either.

ok I appreciate you reading my rant and if its not the blackberry and not the crackberry and not T-mobile why hasnt anyone been able to help me. Let me ask you this if you have T-mobile is one of your 4 blackberries the 9630 Tour? If so why dont you assist me in figuring a way...if there is even one possible rather than basically ranting yourself about my rant. you must be bored

I have never wanted to own a Tour, but if I did, I would post in the 9630 forum to ask if anyone uses a Tour on T-Mobile. I guess that option never occurred to you.

TequilaAddict · #11 04-11-2010, 11:58 AM

Oh, I forgot to assist you. Get a Verizon plan for your 9630.

Thanks Tequilla unfortunately Im stuck with T-Mobile. Like I said before Im new to crackberry thank u for being so patient with me. I will check that group of forums

TequilaAddict · #13 04-11-2010, 12:06 PM

If you're stuck with T-Mo, you should only buy phones that are supported by your carrier.

The Tour is a World phone. That means that it is hardwired for CDMA networks (exp. Verizon) and can only access 3G on a CDMA network, but can use 2G on any GMS network (exp. T-Mobile). Lesson here is, know what kind of phone you are buying before you buy it.
