BUYING BLACKBERRY PIN?

hi! i bought a second hand blackberry curve 8310... they told me it was open to every telephone company here in ecuador but apparently the pin number is not valid... i dont know why... someone told me that u can buy a pin number from blackberry site... is this true? if it is true where can i buy it? they told me u can buy it for 20$ or so...

Manuel, there are two possible reasons.
The first: device pin code is locked to another wireless operator. You can call to this operator and ask for unlock code for your device. Either you can buy an unlock code in one of many companies which sell unlock codes for blackberry device.
The second: device pin is blocked, because this device was reported as lost. In such cases wireless operators lock the device pin. In this case you need to contact the wireless operator who locked this device and clarify the situation.

How do you trace a blackberry pin

some one please help, can you trace a blackberry pin and if you can how

Hello,
Please see this helpful post for useful information:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Device-software-for-BlackBerry/Lost-or-Stolen-BlackBerry-What...
Basically, if you did something BEFORE this happened (e.g., installed the FREE BB Protect), then the answer might be "yes". But, like insurance, trying to do something AFTER it happens is not possible.
Good luck!

How to send message to blackberry pin

How do I send a message to a blackberry PIN number from my Iphone?

Blackberry Messanger (BBM) is specific to Blackberry owners only... although I have heard rumors that RIM may license limited access to other Smartphone users in the future... for a fee, of course, and with limited functionality.
Until them, you'll have to Text (SMS) them.

How to buy blackberry ~Z10 in the UK?

New in the forum - so hi to all
Just trying to express my disappointment with blackberry weird "business" plan.
Well - I have been trying to buy blackberry Z10 for quite some time now. First off blackberry internet shop - well - http://store.shopblackberry.com/store/bbrryeu/en_GB/pd/productID.288940400 phone is out of stock for a weeks now.
Ok then... went to the one of the suppliers recommended on bb webpage... order placed... Very next day - order canceled. No explanation... nothign - just cancelled. Other suppliers - do not even have it in offer - or with ridiculous price tag. Well done "boys"... what can I say... if you do not want my money - your choice - I will not force you.
As I can not wait for a monhts to buy a phone - am going for android .
Good luck blackberry

Hi, I bought my Z10 from Car Phone Warehouse about a month ago. Went into the local branch, ordered the phone and it was delivered to the store within 24 hours. I was previously on payg but changed over to a o2 monthly contract so got the handset for £159. I've had a quick look on CPW website and the phone shows as in stock. Have you tried ordering from them?

Releasing Blackberry Pin

Hi,
I have been trying all week to no avail to get my Blackberry PIN released from the Verizon network, to use with a foreign sim & BIS service. The phone is unlocked but it seems the PIN is locked to a BES service thru a Verizon retailer. I have reached out to Verizon Tech Support & RIM Tech Support & am just getting the run around. Can anyone guide me in the right direction to get help with this? The last Verizon Tech rep I spoke to told me that RIM could assist once I had the SRP code & Subscription code for the original BES. I can not get that & have not found a way around it. If i can get the PIN released from Verizon, I would even consider hooking the phone up with Verizon again once I am back in the USA. Anyone that has any idea on how to go about getting this done for a 9550 Storm, I would really appreciate it. I am trying to hook it up on the Digicel Cayman network while I am here on a job. I have tried everything possible including doing a factory reset & no luck. I still can not get the service books sent or register with the BIS service properly because of the PIN being locked to a Verizon BES network. The phone was purchased thru eBay, after it was purchased from a Verizon retailer (where it was a display phone).
Thanks in advance,

I was able to get certain information from Verizon Tech support, but then the support stopped. Does anyone have an email address for Verizon Blackberry Tech Support?

Living in Spain but buying Blackberry from Amazon UK

I live permanently in Spain but am considering buying a 8520 from Amazon in the UK because the prices are almost 50 percent less than they are here in Spain. If I put in my local Pay As You Go SIM card into my new Blackberry will everything function correctly. Sorry if this is a dumb question but what I know about mobiles can be written on a pin head.

Blackberry pin and board

hi
my curve board is damaged and i send it to the service center but they told me that i need new board
so
there is any way that i can keep my old PIN since i am planning to buy new blackberry
or there is a chance the i send it to you and fix it for me becous really i was sooo lucky with the PIN
waiting your reply
and have a nice day

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
As a user-to-user community, this site is not a method of requesting anything formally from RIM. Your service provider is your channel for formal requests. However, since each PIN is unique to one BB in the world, I would doubt that what you request can be done.
Good luck!

Getting Serial Number using BlackBerry PIn

Hi guys
does anyone know how to generate the device serial number using the PIN? My precious limited edition just got stolen at an accident a few minutes ago.
BlackBerry Protect on location it's shaded out, likely won't be able to see it's location once wiped. Though I do hope to recover it.
Please help. The box is more than 1000 miles away and can only access it probably once my mum is back there from her holiday this side in about a month.

Try my apps:
The Ultimate Currency Converter and T2G - BloGFeed

Your carrier should have that on file so giving them a call would be an idea.
It's a good idea to call them anyway to cancel the SIM card ASAP.
Cheers.

Blackberry PIN on my phone that got stolen

I wanted to know, if my blackberry’s PIN is linked with my blackberry account with Fido (Canadian company), does that mean that no one else can register that blackberry on the network?
I just wanted to know since my unlocked blackberry curve 8900 was stolen. It’s pin is {edited out information}, in case someone knows of a way to do something about it.
Thanks!
Jeremy

Correct. As long as you leave the PIN registered on your account, it can't be registered elsewhere.
However, the carrier can remove the PIN if requested by another user, so it can be registered to use again.
My advice, report the theft to your local police and your carrier. It could be returned, you never know.
Otherwise, it's gone. There's nothing you can do.

Where can I buy 3 pin adaptor for Official IPOD charger

Hi
I am using the IPod charger that came with my son's IPod to charge my IPod Nano which works fine. However when we bought the IPod, the charger that came with it has a 2 pin attachment rather than a 3 pin (UK type) attachment. Although we can use the charger using a 3 pin to 2 pin adaptor plug I would like instead just to replace the 2 pin attachment on the charger with a 3 pin one. However I can't find them on sale anywhere. Does anyone know where I can buy one? Thanks
Pentium III 800 Windows XP

The UK Apple store sells them. Select store from the buttons at the top, and scroll until you find a list of countries. Select UK, and find the charger. I think they're £19.

Flip 8220, lost Blackberry PIN, only a 2 shows up on the options/status screen

Is there any solutions ?
After aprox 9 months working fine the phone suddenly lost its PIN, only shows up a 2 on the status screen. The internet and blackberry services by the wireless service provider are not anymore available (the services are active), the EDGE status is not in capital letters.
Can this be corrected to the original PIN number ?
Or is the phone just damaged ?
Thanks for any help

I have not heard of this. I've heard of the pin going to FFFFFFFF but never just to a 2. Have you tried removing the battery to reboot the device? If so, then I'm guessing the device is defective or has been disabled for some reason. Did you purchase the device new? If so, it should be covered under warranty if it's only 9 months old.

Indonesian can't buy blackberry apps!!

Hi,
my name is Abi. I'm from Indonesia.
I'm having problem paying for a very nice blackberry apps. the price is $3.00.
However, when I click on "buy" and go to the next page, I was given 2 payment option, creditcard and paypal.
I don't have creditcard, just like most of other indonesian. Only upper-middleclass have it.. Many blackberry users are middle or even below-middle class.
So I choose paypal. Before that, I go to my paypal account to deposit, because it has zero-balance. then another problem arise.
FOr paypal, we can only deposit money by creditcard!! I don't know the exact reason, I tried to call paypal last night, but that waiting-music never ends for almost 10 minutes. Maybe because I don't speak fluent english. So I hung up.
So, what other option do we have?
As you might know, blackberry is so much popular in Indonesia. My brother, father, and mother, each have their own blackberry. Almost at least one member of each of my neighbour families have a blackberry user. But as far as I know they just download free apps because they think paying for priced-apps is too complicated.
I think you missed a big-profit for your business if this keep going. Even though some people say Indonesia a poor country. It's not really that poor. $3.00 isn't much for us. I mean we still can afford it.
But maybe I was wrong...is there another way for me to pay for that apps? thanks
Abi

Hello abi,
I am Xandrex, from Paris, France.
1) Indonesia is one of the country that RIM cares a lot about. RIM has recently organized parties in Indonesia, with plenty of pretty BlackBerry girls, I'm still waiting for such an event in France !
You are currently writing on the English BlackBerry Support Community Forums, but I advise you to go to the Indonesian forum, here:
http://forumdukungan.blackberry.com/
2) you can see the requirements for the PayPal account in this article from the public knowledge base. For example you see that your PayPal account must be in USD and not in Indonesian Rupiah if you want to be able to use your PayPal account without a VISA card.
KB25368 Supported payment types for use with BlackBerry products and services
3) As far as I know, for AppWorld, you can use any VISA card, not specifically a credit card one. So if you have a VISA debit card, it should also work.
4) PayPal allows you to store money (here, in USD ). You can add funds to your Paypal account through:
another Paypal account
a money transfer using a VISA card
a money transfer using a wire transfer from your bank account
so I suggest you try option 3 (bank account).
5) If you fear to miss some subtilities and details in English, you can of course go to the Indonesian Paypal website. The help section is very detailed (once you are logged in), and the PayPal support by email is always very fast to reply (less than 24h).
https://www.paypal.com/id/webapps/mpp/home?locale.x=id_ID
6) AppWorld allows another payment method, called "carrier billing". I think it suits perfectly "below-middle" classes.
The list of carriers that support this feature can be read here:
KB25147 Requirements to use billing through a wireless service provider when purchasing applications from BlackBerry App World
as you can see, Indosat already supports carrier billing. You can contact your carrier and ask them when they will finalize the contract with RIM to provide their subscribers the carrier billing method.

BlackBerry PIN guessing

I received a suspicious long email-like message as a "PIN Peer-to-Peer" this morning. It is written in a language I don't understand (Indonesian of some kind) and has RIM branding all over it.
I don't know how they could have got my PIN as I never post it anywhere, so I'm wondering if anyone else got a similar message. Could it be that someone has a script that just tries guessing PINs? It wouldn't be that hard to write one, I guess, but shouldn't BlackBerry security stop the message from being sent?

It happens. Rarely, from what I can tell. I don't know exactly how it is done, but I think it is as you say. Can't say either way if BlackBerry could block it. My advice is ignore it if it is indeed a rare occurrence.

Cost of Blackberry PIN messages?

Hi there, hope someone can help!
The company I work for has Blackberrys for all staff and we have started communicating via the PIN messaging service but we're unsure of whether this incurs a cost or not?
We've contacted our service provider who say they've never even heard of the service! (useful, eh?) They suggested we contacted Blackberry, as it's possible that Blackberry charge our service provider and that cost is then passed on to us. I've had a look on the website but can't see anything.
Can anyone help, and advise whether there's likely to be a charge?
Thanks!

PIN messages are charged the same as other data things, like email or web browsing. They are not like SMS messages where your carrier will change you a per-message charge. If you have unlimited data then you unlimited PIN messaging. If you do not have unlimited data, PIN messaging just counts toward your data limit (or possibly overage charge if you go over your limit).
