I have BB 8120 got the code from a provider. Phone company is Cable & Wireless Panama but I dont seem to get any menu after typing MEPPD MEPP2
? What does the resulting menu for entering the code looks like?

Hi guys.. I bought a bb curve 8310 from eBay, used.. will receive it next week. I dont live in USA, I live in Dominican Republic.. so I assume I cant call AT&T or T-Mobile to get it Unlocked.. should I pay for a "local" unlock here? Thanks for your advice. Cheers

Absolutely NOT, never pay for an unlock, you don't have to ever.
Don't matter if you live in DR. If ATT locked it here, then that's who you contact.
wOOdy65, you have a CDMA phone so unlocking it is
not an option available to you. Since you don't have
a SIM card that option will not be present in Advanced Options.
I recieved the unlock code for my bb 8310 and followed the posted instructions. After entering my 16 digit unlock code, a box opened up for a few seconds that said "code accepted", then the box closed. Does this mean my bb is unlocked and if so, is there somewhere in the phone where I can go to verify this? I don't have another carrier's sim to test this with?

Yes, its done. Check my unlock thread below, I believe its advanced options, and network should all read disabled.

Thanks for the quick response, ant17. There's no network showing under advanced options. If I go to advanced options, sim card, on the top of the screen it says "SIM CARD: Security Disabled". Does this mean anything?

Yes, theres a thread here,can't remember, that showed all the network stuff saying disabled.

I think on a Curve, its options>advanced>SIM
Then type MEPD, and you will see a list.
It should say DISABLED under Network.. If it says active under Network, then it is not unlocked.

I went there and sure enough, everything is disabled, including service provider. I hope this may help anyone else in my position.
Thanks again for your help.

i am a new curve user and have already had to replace the first curve i received because it locked up. i am now facing the same problem with the one i have now. i have my curve password protected and i was trying to backup my information with the disk but it kept asking for my password. i entered the password i use to get into my curve and that was no good. i am now on my final attempt and risk losing my memory for the third time if i can not get the correct password in. it keeps asking me to enter blackberry then it wants my code, but it is not accepting. any guesses on how to unlock without losing my info on this final attempt?
