Mep code O2 British carrieer
Hi
I've bought on ebay a device bold 9900. I live in Italy, the device comes from UK. Every sim I insert it asks me about the MEP code. I have just 1 attempt, because I thought MEP was the PIn code of my sim card, so I tried many times to use it. The vendor send me a code, 1952, I tried also to use this, but it doesn't work. I think that original carrieer was O2. Someone can help me?
Maybe I cane use the 1952 code, but I have to put some zero before or after?
Excuse me for my imperfect english.
Thanks

Sadly, with only one try left, you run the risk of permanently locking your device to it's original carrier, so you must be very very careful now (and your idea is 100% wrong, btw).
Good luck!

My Blackberry 9300 is asking for a MEP code
I know the MEP code is the code to unlock your phone, but Im not trying to unlock it. I ran out of battery I charged it full and when I turned it on now is was asking for that code. It is my providers SIM card and I already tried to do the battery pull and still the same, called my provider they just advised me to get a new SIM but that didnt work
Very strange indeed...see this KB:
KB26790 BlackBerry smartphone prompts for an MEP code after switching SIM cards
While written for different model BBs, the results are the same as what you report. Unfortunately, the resolution is rather drastic as well. I also find this KB:
KB03889 Changing the service provider or network
All in all, what I recommend you to is continue to work with your Service Provider as all I can find indicates that they must be involved to help resolve this. Further, they can escalate your case into RIM for formal support if needed...formal RIM support is not available in this user-to-user forum.
Good luck!

No MEP code in the escreen !!
Hi,
My Q10 was hard reseted during a keyboard exchange by the constructor (under warranty) and no longer desimlocked. I obtained an official code and the network and sub-network are now unlocked as told in the security menu but I am reaquested for a MEP code and could not connect to the network.
I went into the 'escreen' and the "OS Engineering Screens" and "Device Info" menus but not MEP codes are listed !
Can anybody help me ?
Thanks in advance.
econseillerIf your phone was working before the person did that hard reset I would go back to them first.
If that person can't help you, check with your carrier and see if they can escalate to BlackBerry if they (carrier) can't resolve it.

Mep code 0 tries left .....
i have a bb bold 9650 ... with zero mep tries left , could it be unlocked ??
After the ten attempts have been used and you have 0 left, you must get RIM to unlock the device.
There are two routes, and only two, to achieve this.
* IF your device is in warranty, contact your service provider technical support. Tell them you have this issue which needs to be escalated to RIM level customer support. I'll warn you that most carrier technical support people will first assume and think you are referring to a device security unlock, and you will need to convince them otherwise and explain clearly what you need. THEY will not be able to help you because the carriers themselves cannot unlock a device which has had the MEP code attempts depleted, and should (and you will need to ask) to have the case escalated to RIM level tech support.
* If your device is out of warranty, contact RIM direct. See the Contact Us information from the website: http://ca.blackberry.com/contact/ The options you want to select to speak to BlackBerry Customer Care are 3 (for inquiries, orders, billing, e-RMA etc) then 5 (e-RMA and Out of Warranty).
Make sense? Good luck.

where can I receive the MEP code to unlock my blackberry? I tried calling my service provider and they would not give it to me. I am going to europe in a couple of months and I would like to use my phone over there.
in the legal contract you signed with your carrier, it is stipulated that you can demand that MEP, if your case is in the cases listed. I guess on of them is going abroad. Call them again and tell them that you are going abroad.
there is another solution, that consists on trusting a private company to unlock your device for you. You pay for the service.
I have often read about Horizon Wireless, but I don't know if they do a good job or not.

Unlock my blackberry Curve 8520: Enter service provider mep code (0) left
Good afternoon,
A few days ago I bought a BB Curve 8520 from a friend but the phone says:
"enter service provider mep code (0) left"
Is it possible to fix this problem?
Regards,
JulianSomeone tried too many bad attempts to enter an unlock code in the device.

Blackberry 9300 solution for mep code (0 left)
Hi
Blackberry 9300 solution for mep code (0 left)
Help me please
Thanks...Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
With zero tries left, there is only one official solution -- sending your BB to the RIM factory to have it totally reset. Your methods of requesting this service are the same as for all BB service...via your wireless service provider. If they refuse or if you have no warranty (due to a variety of reasons, this can be the case), then you must request this via paid incident support:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/programs/technical/incident.jsp
Be advised that, while I have no personal experience with this, it is my opinion that the cost of having this done will exceed the cost of just buying a new BB.
Good luck!

Hi!
My request would be somewhat not ordinary, but I have nowhere else to turn, because I live in Russia ... :-(
Saw the phone BB Curve 8900 and fell in love. Ordered through e-bay. They sent, but only for T-mobil.
One "very intelligent" people advised to enter 10 times Network Mep code, which I did. :-(
How can I be? T-mobil we do not.
P.S. Sorry for my English.
{edited for privacy}
Roman.Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
If I understand you correctly, the "very intelligent" people you trusted gave you very bad information. After attempting (and failing) to enter the proper unlock code 10 times, the device is permanently locked to the original carrier, and cannot be unlocked. What you needed was the proper unlock code (which can be purchased) and to have entered that...doing so would have unlocked the BB from TMobile, allowing you to put a different carriers SIM into it and use it. Now you cannot do that. And there is no fix that I know of.
Sorry.

MY FATHER WAS GAVE ME THE BLACKBERRY AS A GIFT
HE TOLD ME THAT HE PURCHASE IT ON A ONLINE STORE
THEN THE PROBLEM IS ZERO LEFT MEPCODE?
WHAT DO I DO?Hi there,
Unfortunately, if you are seeing that message, you will be unable to unlock your phone. Did you get the phone like that, or did you enter the incorrect MEP code yourself? If you got the phone like that, I would have your dad contact the seller and complaint. If it was bought from eBay, then you can file a complaint.
If you got to this message by entering the wrong MEP code yourself, then you will be out of luck and the phone will only work on the original carrier that the phone was locked to. You can try checking with a cellphone repair shop, but any "repairs" they take are at your own risk.
