Hi,
My 8525 now keeps saying NO GSM, and does not detect my SIM anymore.
I unlocked my Phone thru ATT when i was still with them, and now i'm using TMO.

Would you guys know If i called ATT, would they still send it in for fix for me?
it's been over 3 months since my contract ended.

Thanks.

The warranty, if any, is with the manufacturer. AT&T has no obligation to help non-customers.

No, AT&T will not help you. Why should/would they? T-Mobile won't either, as they don't carry the 8525. As for RIM...that's your only shot...the 8525 is pretty old (sort of), and anyone please correct me if I'm wrong, but if the warranty is for one year, which is usually the case, then you'll likely have to pay for any repairs, and that's expensive.

Maybe you can find someone in your area who fixes phones inexpensively, and/or look on ebay. Be very careful with the latter however. It is often cheaper to get another phone than to have your repaired. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but anything but the truth won't help you.
