Does anyone know if a locked Rogers phone will work with a Petro-Canada Mobility SIM card (same as a Speakout SIM will)

Thank You

There is an extremely good chance the voice part of a locked Rogers phone will work with Petro Canada Mobility SIM cards. The data part should also work out of the box, and if not, would need some new APN settings configured.

Thanks bridonca:

I have an old (Rogers) Blackberry 8700 arriving soon and will check it out when I am able to.

Cheers

Sweet, there is a thread on Blackberries and Speakout, same settings will apply with Petro Canada. I do not believe BBM works directly though. http://www.speakoutwireless.ca…..speak-out/

Thank you for the link as I had lost it. Last year I managed to get an unlocked 8700 (with a Speakout SIM) working using these settings. Text, Voice, and Web all worked well for me. I gave the Blackberry (and SIM) to my wife and she will not part with it.

After a brief departure to Telus Prepaid (their unlimited voice on one phone number 'add on' for $7.00 tempted me away) I have purchased another old 8700 (on eBay) and will be using it with either a Speakout (or Petro-Canada) SIM. Decisions, decisions :)
