Looks like you just change your original sim card with other network sim card. You must unlock your blackberry first before you can using other network in your phone. What you need is blackberry 8830 unlock code from your original phone network sim card. You can get blackberry unlock code from network provider or buy from third party sites which have lower cost rather than network provider.

I'm trying to unlock my BB storm 9530,after I type "MEPPD" I enter "MEP2" or "MEPP2" but still I dont get any window to put the unlock code in,any ideas ?!
Before you start, you MUST have an Unauthorized Sim Card inserted. An unauthorized Sim Card is a Sim Card that is NOT belong to the provider of the phone. Example: If you have a Verizon phone, you need to insert a T-Mobile Sim Card inside the phone before turn it on. 1. Power on the phone.
2. Phone will said "MEP check failed. Do you want to enter MEP unlock code". Select Yes.
3. "Enter Network MEP code (# left)". Enter the unlock code.
4. Press Enter, you should see “Code Accepted”
5. You need to check Network Connection is set on GSM/UMTS. Menu>Manage Connection>Mobile Network Options and make sure it GSM/UMTS.
6. Once GSM/UMTS is selected. You can now ready to make phone call.
Notice: If the network not working after your phone is fully charged and unlocking process “Code Accepted”. You must change from Verizon CDMA network to GSM Global Network a few times, after change from Verizon CDMA to GSM Global 3 times is completed, leaves it on GSM Global Network. Now it should work. (Verizon 8830 World Edition DOES NOT work in USA)

I would like to have unlock code for Blackberry World Edition 8830?
Depends who you are with.
If you're with Verizon, you have to call Verizon to get it unlocked. Just call Verizon International Technical Support at cb_transparent_l.gifus.gifspace.gifspace.gifarrow.gifspace.gifspace.gifspace.gifspace.gifspace.gifspace.gifspace.gif800-711-8300cb_transparent_r.gif.
Customer service will give you the 8 digit code, hang up and follow this procedure:
  • Settings Menu - Options
  • Selected Advanced Options - SIM Card
  • Type MEPD on the keyboard
  • Type MEP, then the ALT button, then 2
  • A prompt comes up "Enter Network MEP Code". Type in the unlock code, then pressed the track wheel.
  • Phone is now unlocked.

Sprint has the 8830 only in black and it is already unlocked by the carrier when it ships.
Also know you can't use the GSM portion of an 8830 in the US or Canada or Mexico. The reason is because the US/CA and Mexico use different bands than the radio provides. The US uses 850 and 1900 MHz. The rest of the world uses 900 and 1800 MHz Bands. Since your phone only has the latter, it has no capability to work in North America.

Or, you can go here and pay for a code:

Telus Blackberry 8830 World Edition with Rogers SIM?
Unfortunately, you can't use the current Storm model on Rogers. The Telus network is CDMA (Rogers is GSM), which means Telus' wireless products do not use SIM cards :-(
If it's any consolation, there is supposed to be a Blackberry Storm released soon that will use SIM cards and could be used on Rogers.
