Both the original &#8220;Network&#8221; lock aka MEP2, and the new SP lock aka MEP4, are needed to unlock the Bell 9700 now.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cellfservices.com\/blog\">We&#8217;ve found 2 methods to do it and blogged about it on our site<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Through the eyes of a cell phone unlocker, it seems that RIM is always making an effort to tighten security on their new Blackberry devices.  This time it has gone beyond RIM, with Bell and soon TELUS adding new locks on their Blackberry phones.<\/p>\n<p>We like to call them \u201cMEP4? locks instead the old MEP2 that we\u2019ve grown so fond of. It has already been implemented on the Bell 9700 which has 2 locks \u2013 the network lock and the Service Provider (SP) lock.  Unlock code developers, crackers and hackers are still in the process of developing a quick and \u201cInstant\u201d method for unlocking these MEP4 codes.  Although we are able to unlock the Bell Blackberry Bold 9700, it\u2019s interesting to see that RIM, Rogers and T-mobile are still using MEP2 codes for the Rogers Blackberry Bold 9700 and T-mobile Blackberry Bold 9700.<br \/>\n<span id=\"more-16779\"><\/span><br \/>\nPerhaps Telus and Bell are doing this to protect their new HSDPA network? Or maybe they are passionate about retaining their clientele and keeping exclusivity of their handheld devices. Who knows?
