How do I know if my Blackberry is Unlocked?
Cellfservices has had some customers purchase an unlock code only to find out that their phone is already unlocked. We would like to clarify that there are 2 methods to see if your phone is unlocked.
The easiest method for Blackberry users is to do the following…
1.) Go to options
2.) Advanced Options
3.) SIM Card
4.) Type MEPD. (You will not see any text appear) — Here you will see a list like the above image.
Normally, all categories are listed as “Disabled” except the Network Category. If your phone is unlocked, it will say Disabled beside the Network category. This means your phone is already unlocked 
. Before you decide if you want to unlock your BlackBerry, you should also check to see if your BlackBerry is hard locked. With hard locked BlackBerry phones, even with a correct code, you will not be able to enter in the unlock code.
The best and fool proof way for all phones is to put a SIM card into the phone that is not locked to the same carrier. (Ex. Put an AT&T SIM card into your T-mobile phone). I’m sure you have people within your social network that are not on the same carrier.
If you’ve checked everything above and your phone is still locked, you can get your BlackBerry unlock code from our store.

I did this using SIM card from another carrier and everything is disabled except network says active. Across the top it says No Valid Sim Card. I can only make SOS calls. What does this mean?
@Linda: If it says “Active” next to “Network”, it means that your Blackberry is still locked to a specific carrier. In order to use it with another carrier, you will need to unlock it first. You can get this done within 3mins right here: http://www.cellfservices.com/store/blackberry-unlocking-codes/
Hi, I put in a Lyca sim and all features say disabled except for network. top of home screen has invalid sim card written. im in england, the only other sim card i have is italian, called WIND, not yet tried it
@GEORGE: If it says “Active” next to Network, your Blackberry is still locked. If it says “Inactive”, it is fully unlocked.
