hi i own a bb 9630 and am using telenor .would like to know why telenor pakistan is not supporting my fone and hence bb services vcannot be activated on it ur prompt reply will be appreciated
9630 is a North American Model, Not available for this region hence hasn’t been tested over Telenor’s Network. That’s why the operators won’t support the particular model.
