2. Write down the IMEI from that screen or sticker.
II. Get An Unlock Code

or purchase an unlock code from any other unlocking site
2. Wait for your unlock code via email.
III. Input Your Unlock Code
1. Once you get your unlock code, goto Options > Advanced Options > SIM Card
2. While on that screen shift and type
MEPD
or

3. Options should appear now on that screen. Now hold shift again and type the following (keep in mind that you may ALSO have to hold Alt to input the 2):
MEP2
or
MEPP2 (if you are using a Vodafone handset)
4. You will now be asked for your Network MEP code (the unlock code).

If i dont have verizon and i want to unlock my blackberry storm, but i have a friend that does have verizon could i ask her to call to get an unlock code?
Aaron,
No, the phone must be activate on her account for 3 months before they will give her a code. You could purchase the unlock code from us, takes less than 24 hours… Click on Unlock My Phone at the top of the site if you choose to do that.
