Questions About Blackberry Torch 2 Verizon

Sandra asks…

Can i unlock Torch and use with Verizon Storm 2 sim?

Hey people,
I have the Blackberry Storm 2 with Verizon and a friend of mine has the at&t Torch, and we were wondering if both of us unlock our phones, can i use his Torch with my Verizon sim card, and can he use my Storm2 with his at&t sim card.
Thanx :]

admin answers:

No. Your Verizon sim does not get Verizon service. It's there so you can access GSM service outside the US. Verizon will not allow non-Verizon-branded phones to be activated on its network.

On the other hand, if unlocked, your Storm 2 can be used with an AT&T sim.

What Verizon phone should I get?

my upgrade is in december/january. what phone should i get for verizon? i want a QWERTY keyboard and 3G. I was thinking either the DROID 2 or the BlackBerry Bold. which of those should i get? no doubt if an iPhone for Verizon comes out i will get that or if the BlackBerry Torch comes out.

I'd take a palm.
When palm sold, like ALL the mobile companies (well, not all, but loads) tried to buy it, including Apple, Blackberry (i think) and others. HP won, though. Clearly, blackberry were not so happy - they just made a phone, the blackberry torch that pretty much copies the pre, one of palm's phones)
The Pixi and Pre are, i am guessing the best to own, both QWERTY and touchscreen. I think Palm has a non touchscreen, (the treo? Not that sure). If they don't have 3G they have WiFi, either way there is internet. Which is very nice. All those who own the Pre (nearly!) say they simply adore it and would never, ever go back - some have complained about the poor battery, however palm conqered the fear with a touchstone charger - a nice, portable dock that charges your phone.
I recommend Palm.

Steven asks…

Why is Verizon the best?

Hi!
I currently have MetroPCS and I want to convince my parents to switch to Verizon.
What can I tell them to make them say yes?
Why is Verizon the best?
The only reason we have MetroPCS is because there are no contracts, but the phones suck.
If I do end up getting Verizon, which phone is the best?
These are the qualities needed-
- Touch screen
- Slide out QWERTY keyboard (not like the blackberry torch)
- Web
- High Tech
- Not more than $100 with the 2 year contract
Guys, I didn't ask for you to disagree with me.....
LG Ally
or
Motorola Devour????

admin answers:

Couple of reasons: The coverage in the area where you live may be better on Verizon than on Metro PCS. Secondly, Metro PCS is a regional carrier where Verizon is a national carrier when traveling around the country you'll get hit with roaming fees where that you'll won't get with Verizon.

BLACKBERRY QUESTIONS!?

ok my aunty just got a blackberry torch and she wanted me to put her favorite song, bruno mars just the way you are, on as her ringtone. i sent the mp3 file via bluetooth via my iMac but i have no clue how to set it as ringtone. and how do u know if it is fake. IF SHE'D ONLY GET THE IPHONE!!!!! and can the torch use 2 sim cards cuz she wants to know if it is fake. looks real to me. it all started when i told her the best phone to get was an iPhone. so she went out and got one ( NOT FROM APPLE OR VERIZON ) and it turned out to be a fake iphone MADE IN CHINA not ASSEMBLED IN CHINA. so i guess she got angry and bought the torch. it doesn't even have a proper touchscreen its like a touchpad unlike Ipod touch, Iphone, Ipad, Ipod nano.

Robert asks…

Verizon upgrade, which would be best?

I'm deciding between the LG Revolution, Blackberry Torch, HTC Trophy. The Revolution is 4 1/2 stars. The Blackberry is 5 starts and the Trophy is also 4 1/2 stars. I'm buying off of the internet so the Trophy has a $100 discount, but the others are just the 2 year upgrade. What would you guys recommend and why? thankks :)

Questions About Blackberry Curve 8530 Virgin Mobile

Paul asks…

Should I get a Blackberry Curve 8530 (Virgin Mobile)?

I saw a really cheap plan of $45.00 per month (unlimited texting, web, and more) with the Virgin Mobile plan. I saw that they said that they offered the Blackberry Curve 8530...Is it a good phone?/ Is it worth the $185.00? I mean, if it is only $45.00 per month...I thought that was pretty good...

Its worth it

Charles asks…

Is the blackberry curve 8530 for virgin mobile good?

I have a samsung galaxy vibrant right now for tmobile but i have to go prepaid now. So is the bb curve good? Also is it easy to get used to?

admin answers:

There are currently nine versions of the BlackBerry Curve 8530 for sale in the US. But the ones offered by Cricket, MetroPCS and Virgin Mobile demand special scrutiny. All three carriers sell this smartphone for a very low monthly rate, with no contract. Virgin's plans are a little more expensive than Metro's and Cricket's, but Virgin's network is both 3G (which Metro isn't) and available nationwide (which Cricket isn't). This is the only smartphone available for Virgin Mobile right now, and combined with the plans we think it's a very good buy.

Daniel asks…

Is there a way i can connect my sprint blackberry curve 8530 with virgin mobile prepaid service?

admin answers:

You will not be able to make your Blackberry 8530 work on Virgin Mobile's network. It does not matter if your Blackberry is GSM, CDMA or any other type of phone. It also will not matter whether your Blackberry was from the Sprint, AT&T, Verizon or T-Mobile network.

The only phones that will work on Virgin Mobile are phones specifically made for, programmed and sold on (and for) the site / network ... Such as their Blackberry Curve 8530. There's is programmed with different Enterprise-Level firmware and they do this intentionally, and it is the only way for a low-cost, prepaid network to survive.

If you could use any phone (or any other network's phone), nobody would buy Virgin Mobile phones at all ... They'd buy used or unlocked phones elsewhere, then go sign up for Virgin Mobile, Boost or some other prepaid network.

This is also the reason why phones are often "free" or so inexpensive on one of the major networks - because they are relying on a minimum Two-Year Contract ... Which a prepaid company can not get from you.

You CAN unlock your Blackberry 8530 or get it unlocked and use it on a competing major provider. If it is a GSM phone, you can use it on AT&T or T-mobile. If it is a CDMA phone, you can use it on Verizon or Sprint.

Blackberry Curve 8530 on Virgin Mobile?

Whoever has a Blackberry Curve 8530 on Virgin Mobile can ya tell me if the signal is good ...thx

admin answers:

It depends on where you live, but Virgin Mobile runs on the Sprint Network so it's pretty good for me. The messaging and net is fast, and I'm on the $35 plan which is perfect!
