Making UMA work with an Unlocked Blackberry 8520 from Vodafone on a T-Mobile Network.

I bought a BB 8520 online.  It is branded as being a Vodafone.  I need the UMA to work on a T-Mobile network.  How do I do this?

if the device needs to be unlocked. you may try and source it from the vodafone guys , its called the mep code.if not, then there are quite a few online sites who would provide you with a unlock code for a fee( usually around 10-20 dollars)

I bought the phone unlocked from newegg.  It works fine in every way accept the UMA does not kick in.  It is shows that it is connected to my Wifi network, but no UMA.  I need to be able to talk via UMA.

something for you to look at if you havent seen this already. it talks about your wireless router mostly. and also have you tried switching off the mobile radio and thent rying to hook up to wifi.do a battery pull also and then try.

gud luck
Thanks, but that doesn't work.
