Hi, i am a first time bb user. I bought my blackberry while on vocation in abu dhabi and then i used it for a couple of months in pakistan without encountering any type of problems. When i came back from my vocation i bought a new sim card and after a couple of days of normal service, when i turned on my phone last night I got a message saying Device Pin Blocked. I cant go past this message and could only recieve calls and cant do anyything else. I contacted my service provider as the messge told me to do so, they dont know wht the problem is. Can anyone guide me on how to fix this problem. I have a Q10, thank you.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please see this "sticky" post, along with the threads to which it links, for helpful information to guide you as you proceed:

Hopefully, this information will be of use to you.
Now, armed with that information, you know that no one here can actually do any research to answer your question. For some reason, your device PIN is blocked and cannot be used on any carrier for BB-specific services. It could be reported as lost or stolen. That report could be valid or it could be in error. In any event, to solve the issue, you need to follow the formal support process as discussed via the link I gave you above.
If I had to guess, I'd say you need to contact the seller to you of the device and convince them to help you...after all, you bought it from them, therefore your device-purchase contract is with them, which means your device-level formal support is determined by that purchase contract...whatever it says is what you must do to obtain formal support for this matter.
Nothing but formal support for this matter will be useful I think.
Cheers, and Good Luck!

Device Pin Blocked STA100-2

Hello to all. It's my first time to post something here, so please bear with me.
I just received a 2nd hand Z30 from my relatives abroad. It's still almost brand new. Now I was using it for a good six weeks until I updated the software to 10.3. Now, when I use it just for calls and sms there is no problem. But when I connect to the wifi network I always get locked out... like the "DEVICE PIN BLOCKED" message.
I have flashed thephone more than I can even count with my hands and still the problem is there using the reload software option on the Blackberry Link software but still the problem is there.
Mind you guys this is not a stolen phone... as I've said before the phone was working fine until the update. I've read countless forums that the phone is probably as stolen one but I don't see it as a stolen phone... who'd wait for 6 weeks to wait for the phone to be reported as stolen?!
Please guys do you have some way to solve this? I am planning to give it to my wife as a gift but now I don't think this is a good gift for her. I've contacted the source of this phone from India... and they're pretty much beating around the bush with their help... which is close to no help at all.
I do not have the receipt for this phone since this is a hand me down.. just the box and the unit.
Help...please... anyone?

Hi and Welcome to the Community! Refer:Article ID: KB33469 “Device Pin Blocked. Unable to contact BlackBerry service. Please contact service provider for assistance” displays on the BlackBerry smartphoneWe here cannot know why it is blocked...stolen is just one theory, which cannot be validated by anyone here. Only the entity that placed the block can answer the "why" question as well as remove the block. Since whoever you are presently contacting is not helping you, and if you indeed wish to continue to pursue this, then you might try the fee-based direct-to-BB support model, which is included within everything linked here:http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Social-Lounge/How-This-Site-and-Formal-Support-Work/td-p/2540549When you find it, do note that the process will start with a fee just to ask the question, regardless of the outcome. You'll have to decide for yourself if it's worth it or not.
Cheers, and Good Luck!

Device Pin Blocked ( Z10 )

Hi,
I wonder if anyone can help..
I purchased a Z10 and sent it out to my wife, on entering her sim it says 'Device Pin Blocked' and stops her from doing anything.
Item is brand new, unused, direct from a retail store in the uk, but is now with my wife in Singapore.
any suggestions as to what it is or how to get it functional please?

Was the device unlocked for use on a mobile network other than the one from which it was branded?
Where did you purchase the device? You should call them and give them the PIN to ask them to check the PIN in case it had been reported lost or stolen.

You will need to contact BlackBerry, two ways:

Device Pin blocked Q10

Hey,
I bought my BB Q10 a few weeks ago from someone who bought it 3 months ago.
The phone worked a week of 2 very well but suddenly i got the message:
Device pin blocked
EMEI number
And i am only able to make emergency calls.
I read the same problem a few times at this forum and they say that maybe the phone is reported as stolen or lost but I know for sure that the person i bought the phone from did not do that because i know him and he would never do this.
How can I solve this??

Hello. Do you know where he got it from? If it was from a carrier, a authorised BlackBerry Store such as the Experience Centers or LifeStyle Stores, or was it from another retailer?

Device restarts automatically after downloading from app world

Whenever I download something from the app world on my curve 8530 it auto reboots. I have software version 5.0.0.395

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, see what happens.
If the behavior ceases, then think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
But if the behavior continues in Safe Mode, then you may need to consider more drastic actions -- WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload, and the "Bare Bones" OS Reload Process. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup to your PC...please review the Backup link in my auto-sig on this post for instructions.
Good luck and let us know!

Device not recognized after downloading itunes 11. Re-installed itunes but it didn't help. seems to recognize my phone as a camera. What to do?

My PC runs Microsoft XL. Downlowaded itunes 11 to my iphone 5 and then tried to sync with my computer. The computer. however, does not recognizr my phone as a "device." In fact, I can't even get the word "device" to appear in the sidebar of the itunes. I deleted the current itunes 11 and reinstalled but it didn't help. The PC seems to recognize my phone as a camera. Any suggestions?

Hi Styal,
From your post I see that iTunes is not recognizing your iPhone, but your computer is. A great resource for troubleshooting this issue is the article linked to below.

Help! Device Pin Blocked

I looked at this thread on the support site.
Its my situation exactly. I called my service provider and they said there was nothing they could do and take the phone to an unlock shop.
Please could someone help me sort this out.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

But, they do have the ability to escalate your support call to BlackBerry. They just need to do it.
Otherwise, you're stuck. Trust me on this, I've helped others with the same issue.

My Q10 got Pin blocked by Blackberry !

Hello gúys,
First post here.
Last week my friend got a Q10 from local seller (we are in Vietnam) for around $750. After using it for 3 days, the Q10 got blocked by Blackberry. He got no access to the phone and the screen only showed a message: Device Pin Blocked.
He still can make and take some phone calls, but nothing rather than that. Any one got this issue yet? and any solutions available ? Your information will be highly appreciated. Thank you.
Quang
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hey q3rista,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
If the PIN is blocked you will be able to send and receive SMS messages and make phone calls but there will be no data access.
For more information on why it was blocked, please contact your network service provider.
Cheers.

My iPhone 3Gs is now no longer a recognised device on iTunes after I downloaded the new iTunes with iCloud software, but it does recognise my iPad2??

My iPhone 3Gs is now no longer a recognised device on iTunes after I downloaded the new iTunes with iCloud software, but it does recognise my iPad2??
I run both Mac and a PC and have iTunes on both, which has previously recognised my iPhone. I had updated my Mac with the new iTunes software with iCloud and updated my iPad2 just yesterday. I then wanted to do the same with my iPhone today, but my Mac wouldn't recognise the device so I tried it on my PC, which recognised the phone but told me I needed to update my iTunes and this in turn wanted to update my iPhone software. After completing all this and restarting, my iPhone now shows the iTunes icon with the USB plug pointing towards it, obviously wanting me to plug it in to my computer to re-connect with iTunes, but now neither of my computers recognise my iPhone and my PC states an 'Unknown Device'. My Mac doesn't even see it. Can anyone help as I really need to get my phone working?? Thanks

Hold down the Home and Power button for 20 seconds. And try to update again.
