[...] Unlock your Blackberry ! (Copied from http://blackberrysync.com/2008/12/how-to-unlock-your-blackberry-for-free/ [...]
Is it possible in any way to unlock the new Blackberry Storm? I really want it for Christmas.
this works with the new blackberry bold. 9000 is the bold isn’t it???
@Kevn D – Yes the Bold is part of the 9000 series.
It looks like the software has been removed though. If you search on Pirate Bay or Torrentz you should be able to find copies on there.
Does it work for the srorm? any software damages risks?
Thanks
I have seen a couple users that said that doesn’t work for the 9000 series that it actually bricks your storm and you have reload the OS, so for right now Verizon Wireless is the only one that can unlock your phone, or you can pay for someone to do it for you.
please help i have black berry 8310 is locked
The last step says to replace your sim card and memory. Do I remove the sim card before I do these steps? I am trying to unlock the phone and erase the sim card so I can sell my BB?
Thanks!
Will this program work on 8700c? I am getting error msgs and no luck.
Thanks!

You could just buy a code from that site,
cellphoneunlockingonline.com it would be a lot easier

When I turn on my Blackberry Its show this always in the screen ” JUM ERROR 102 ” Reset . I cant do anythign on it all all. Any idea how to flash the full phone with the software. Please help me. Thanks
when i tried to connect the phone and trying to do application loading through Desktop Manager its asking for a password. Any idea where to find that password?Plz help me??
Unfortunately I am getting this Messege too when I try to flash my BB with MFI Multiloader which is below:
Can not create CFP instance. Please ensure the BBCFPCOM Driver is Register.
Any idea why i am getting it and how to fix it ? Please.
So, if this link is not working and the pirate bay software is corrupt, can someone lead me on? I badly need this software, I cannot let go of my sweet phone. Nazim come in handy pliz.
the BBCFPCOM error means your oracle client workstation is not connected to your oracle server or oracle enabled website where you put the program. Simple solution, if you don’t need to unlock 1,000s or more on multiple workstations, is to put it on a home PC, disconnect your network and internet, so the program defaults to look in your own computer for the cfp, and just do one at a time ( this also stops computer from trying to find cfp on internet, so it never will run if you don’t). If you have .net 2.0 or newer, I used 3.5a as it had less reconnect errors, the program will find cfp in your windowns based computer and just run. Of course, the phone is totally nuked, including lock code, and you will need to use desktop manager to reinstall OS and apps. I needed to update to 4.2.1 anyway on my 8700, so just one more step.
Hi, I don’t think it’s been answered but does this work for the new blackberry storm? If not, does anyone know how to unlock the bb storm for free?
Thanks a lot :D

How to unlock the blackberry storm (do any one have the code)
Le acabo de mandar 4 a un amigo 8900 y ya las tienes listas, no se con que les hizo pero no me quiere decir.
Blackberry 8900 sends 4 to a good friend, and you already have lists, not whereupon it did to them but it does not mean to me.

does anyone have the code for the blackberry storm
does anyone knows how to unlock a 8900 MFI???
does anyone know anyone that had TELUS blackberry storm unlocked
Does anyone who knows to unlock Blackberry 8100? Is their anybody who has the uncoking code for Blackberry 8100? Please I need your technical support?
To fix the BCFPCOM error you just need to register the BCFPCOM.dll file. I read hundreds of posts with not straight answers.
By unlocking the BB curve 8900, does it means I can do MSN through WiFi connection and also use GPS without paying monthly fee to Telenav?
I have searched everywhere and can’t find a definitve answer to the following question:
Can the Blackberry Storm 9530 be used with the newest MFI Mulitloader?
I have already used it successfully with the 8100 Pearl.
Also, to register the BBCFPCOM.dll file just click on the file (located in the MLL directory I believe) and choose open with…
Then find the regsrv32 file located in the C:\windows\system32 directory. The regsrv32 file will register that DLL and enable you to use the program.
NOTE: .NET 2.0 must also be installed.
Thanks.
Why can’t some1juz leave the dang code 4 bbpearl 8220rim &life would b nicr

How can I unlock my 2 blackberry flip phones?
has anyone had success unlocking a curve 8900 using the method in the tutorial above?
If you can’t figure out how to unlock your phone with the above method, just buy an unlock code, that’s what i did
Got my unlock code from http://www.BlackberryUnlockingOnline.com
and unlocked my AT&T Blackberry 8900 Curve for $10 after a 20% discount that I got using the coupon code ” askstudent ”
I think the code is still valid, cause I just bought my code 3 days ago and it worked.
give it a try

I have a BB8800 and I cannot get the MFI to work……..any clues. I have downloaded the MFI files, extracted them and updated.
The MFI files when unzipped just replace the previous part. Is this correct?.
The issue I have is that when I unpack the MFI, each one justs overlaps the older one. Is this right? It has 8 sections.
I have an unlocked 2 blackberry mobiles (8320 & 8705). I bought the bb 8320 & unlock it from the site http://www.mobile-unlocker.com/. Its working good. But the 8705 bb which i bought as unlocked mobile now it trouble me lot. What can i do with that shall i resale it
I just purchased a Blackberry Pearl 8220 flip with my At&T sim card from my old phone. Well, this phone has T-mobile on it and it was supposed to be unlocked, but I don’t think it is, cause it says, “no valid sim card installed”, when I turn the phone on, whether I insert my sim card or not. Can anyone help me solve this, so I can get the phone working with my sim card?
