it usually costs around $50, you send them your IMEI code, and they send you back an unlock code.
the first link in the search I sent you will give you the details
enjoy
you guys know not of what you speak...verizon phones run on a cdma network...no IMEI and no SIM card...ATT runs off GSM network, entirely different networks and technologies and different insides on the phones....but for laughs, call att and tell them what you wanna do, after the guy laughs at you you can order a new phone
jus sell ur blackberry pearl on ebay/craigslist and sign up for new one with ATT.....u will get a good deal by doing a contract...etc
prolly will sell ur pearl for 50-100$ ...100 selling right now used for in that range depending on condition.
then on ATT site u can get a new/refurb one for 99$ new and 69$ refurb.
so u may be able to MAKE money depending on how u sell/buy and wether u go refurb or not.

im talking about unlocking the phone (the name of the topic)
perhaps ace can goto t-mobile if he wishes
im talking about how to unlock the phone (as the search clearly states)
thanks though lolope:
you cant 'unlock' a cdma phone from verizon, they arent 'locked' there's nothing to 'lock' its a term not used with the type of phone....verizon phones can only be used on verizons network....unless you flash the rom in the phone, at which point you 'might' be able to use it on cricket's network...no where else....i know all about this...t mobile is gsm, wont work there either....:lol:
you still dont get it, but jesus loves you
ummm, actually I DO get it...CDMA phones are not locked...they cant be locked...only GSM phones are locked...so saying you can unlock a verizon phone (CDMA) by giving them the IMEI (which does not exsist on a CDMA phone) is incorrect...if you call verizon and ask for the IMEI# they will not know what you are talking about...becuase it isnt locked. CDMA phones have an ESN (electronic serial number) used to identifiy it on a specific network. it's embedded in the ROM. A verizon phone, has an ESN that identifies itself as a verizon phone, and you cant even activate on a Sprint network, because of that. GSM phones are identified by IMEI#'s...apples and oranges...i could go on and on...I have experience with this stuff first hand, intimately....CDMA phones have a Master Subsudiy Lock code, which really only allows you to program new phone numbers into it and reset it...even with the MSL you cannot 'unlock' a CDMA phone to be used on a GSM network...
you do have to contact the att... and to answer original poster's question, you can not switch verizon phone to be used at ATT ot T-mobile. Like someone already mentioned, two different technologies. go check it out at www.howardforums.com
see, you still don't understand.
I was talking about, strictly, unlocking a cell phone. look up above at the thread title "unlocking a cell phone?".
I said, it is VERY EASY TO UNLOCK A CELL PHONE. I then posted examples of the BLACKBERRY PEARL unlocking.
If you have an iphone from AT&T and you want to use it on T-Mobile. YOU DO NOT CALL AT&T. hahaha
You unlock it with a software program: http://www.quickpwn.com/ (free, make sure your firmware works with it) and then you are able to put in a T-Mobile sim and use the phone as you wish
jailbreaking your phone also allows you to install any third party (non-approved) apps on your iphone/touch. if you want to use a T-mobile sim in an AT&T phone. you DO NOT CALL AT&T to tell them :lol:
