As far as that reversing the Unlock – I am not positive it will re-lock. Give it a shot – worst case scenario you have to pay a few bucks for an unlock code.

I have an unlocked Verizon Blackberry Tour that I'm using for Tmobile. However, I can't do much on it because of BES, and I've searched high and low for a way to remove this policy without "relocking" my device. Any help would be appreciated! @Cooper In an earlier post, you mentioned that it should be possible to wipe the device and reinstall the OS without relocking the device.

If it still does not work you may have to find a work around. Possibly - get a new sim card - insert the old one into another bluetooth capable phone and transfer the contacts through Bluetooth. @Pam If the sim is not being recognized you may have to try the wipe again.

Before I did, I wiped the blackberry and gave it back. Can the next user still get into my facebook because i forgot to address this. I had it set up so I simply accessed facebook with my password already installed. The fact that I wiped it...should be enough. Correct?
