So I just found a blackberry 8300 Curve
- I was walking around my school and lucky I found a blackberry curve 8300, but when I tried to turn it out it was asking me to enter a code that I do not know. Is there any way to figure out the code or start from "scratch" ? It gives me only 3 options as soon as I turn it on:
Unlock
Emergency Call

- Don't think that is a brilliant idea, plus there is no way to actually found the owner as I had this phone for over a month now. He probably gave up by now.05-07-09 03:04 PMLike 0

You could still try returning it or reporting it?
I may miss my guess but I think you came to the wrong place to find out how to unlock someone else's Blackberry.
Why don't you try and find the owner first?05-07-09 03:10 PMLike 0 - I would return it to the carrier, ATT, Verizon, etc. They can figure out who's phone it is and get it back to them.05-07-09 03:11 PMLike 0

- FYI, Fanatic, you are on Sprint/Nextel and the 8300 isn't even compatible with your carrier even if you got it "unlocked".
Do the right thing and turn it in to the carrier it is branded for, or at the very least, your school office.
As mentioned, the owner has probably reported it lost/stolen a long time ago, so you won't be able to activate it anyway.05-07-09 03:20 PMLike 0 -

Metro is cdma, as is Sprint, Nextel is iDEN. The 8300 is a GSM phone. It won't work.05-07-09 03:30 PMLike 0 - Your friends have done it before? So they have bad morals to is what your saying? People like you are the specific reason I lock my phone.
If you want help restoring the phone that isn't yours go somewhere else. No one here is going to help you reward yourself for doing the wrong thing.

- Ok first off our bbs are like our children, only better at times. We put a lot of time and efford into them. We show them off. Its not so much the money we spend, although we do at times spend a lot lol. But a true bb user, it's life and the air we breath, at least to me.
What if you saved up for something nice, never being able to have something to show off before. And boom it's gone. No contacts, no email, no phone and god forbid no messaging.
I know my spelling is not the best. But for me knowing you can't show off such a wonderful thing because you never know who's look and who's it might be is a fate worse then death. I don't curse but if I did I would unleash enough to make a truck driver blush. However I will take great pride in knowing karma will come up and get you in the end.
I admit it was wrong for the user to be so careless but really it happens! Glad to know your there showing off other faults.
ps I hope you get a case of herpies. So that way you can have a reminder evertime you have a flare up and you have to explaine it for the rest of your life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man people like you really really make me so upset!!!!!!!!!!!!05-07-09 03:57 PMLike 0 -
On a sidenote, I thought someone stole my 8900 a couple weeks ago, and was frantically searching all over the place for it at school, only to have the person who found it report it missing. Rogers then called my home telling me that someone has found my device and that it has been dropped off at a Rogers dealer store nearby.
The person stayed anonymous ..... God bless people like that!!!!!!
Oh, and it was only missing for 2 hours.05-07-09 04:00 PMLike 0 -

so sorry to tell you it was definetly no benefit for you to keep the phone and pretty bad that you didn't try to turn it in especially when it costed someone else money.. Sorry I will not give you any kind of good thoughts or text. If it was my phone I would be so ticked off.05-07-09 04:02 PMLike 0
