New to Unlocked BB

[Nadira.Baker]

Hi, I am fresh and am finding it hard to manipulated an unlocked Blackberry (from att to tmobile).

Please please please help.. in dire straits..

I had the worlds worst phone before (dash) and now i have the 8300 curve unlocked for att, is there anything i need to do, settings to change, things to alter so my BB can function as per i got it from tmobile? i noticed the browser, my BB messenger and the facebook application not working for me..

I need guidance, can someone please point me in the right direction? its a great phone and ive spent some time getting to know it, but im hitting a wall and theres nothing like getting something and it working for a person like me, any help or direction would be truly and greatly appreciated!!

8330 is not an ATT device. Do you mean an 8310? You need to have a carrier data plan from Tmo other than that it should work just fine.

Sorry! I meant to say 8300!

You might have to resend your service books located in options-advanced options-service books-one of the TMO things once your TMO SIM is in there.

just get a TMO data plan, and that should fix that up. You need to be more specific on what your current services are too so we can better help you.

Yeah what they said^ ^ ^ as soon as data is activated service books will be sent to your phone.

>after your bb is set up by TM
>go on line to Tmobile.com by PC and login to your account using your phone number.
>the next screen will ask to select your phone.
>If the phone is not listed as a TM phone then pick any blackberry curve phone
>on the left side scroll down to
communication tools
messaging
>setup bb internet and email

>after, go to set up your phone with the PIN and IMEI number on your phone (from a label found under the battery)

>set up your email accounts

>there is a link for "Service Books"
>"send service books"

The email accounts verifications will be sent to your phone for each email account.

When I went from the worlds worst phone "DASH", tmo didn't automatically change my data from windows data to BB data. Make sure your operating on BB data. Congrats on moving from Dash to BB.
