When you unlock a cell phone you allow it to work on all GSM carriers. This works with most GSM cell phones. For example if you have a phone that only works with AT&T you can unlock it and it will work with T-Mobile or vice versa.

To unlock your phone you will need an unlock code. To get this open your phone and look behind the battery. You will see an "IMEI" number. Go to a site which has unlock codes such as cellification.com give them your phone model and IMEI number and they will produce this code for you.

Hey guys I just unlocked my BlackBerry Curve 3G form unlockgenie.com (http://unlockgenie.com/) I got the code very quick and it worked without any trouble. I like to share the instructions to all which came along with the unlock/MEP code hoping that this might help someone to unlock their phone. ***** You must have a SIM card in your phone to complete these steps. We recommend using the SIM card that your phone is currently working with ***** 1. Go to settings 2. Go to options 3. Go to advanced options 4. Go to SIM card 5. Type MEPD (not case sensitive) (you will not see text appear on screen while typing) 6. Does it say Network active? If so your phone is locked 7. Hold the ALT Key while typing in MEPE (not case sensitive) (you will not see text appear on screen while typing) 8. It will say "Enter Network MEP Code, then you type in the 16 digit unlock code, press in the jog dial to confirm 9. Your phone is now unlocked.

All SIM unlock codes are tied to the particular device IMEI and are carrier specific. The request for that code would need to be made from the carrier that the phone was originally manufactured for. But there are websites which you can trust to get the codes. The phone has got limited number of attempts where in you can enter the MEP code. Hard lock will come into play when there are no attempts left in the cell phone. This should help you, www.unlockgenie.com
