v 10.1.0.238 released for Blackberry Q10. I accepted the update today while I was at work (5 MB).

Anyone notice any improvements or bug fixes?

From the way I see it on the website, the only difference between the 2 unlimited blackberry plans provided by boost mobile is that the $60 option gives you unlimited 411 directory assistance...that can't be the only difference though. what am i missing?

For those people who have the Blackberry Q10 (or even the Blackberry Z10)...

When you go into Settings, SIM Card, and scroll all the way to the bottom, underneath the "Phone Network Lock", does it say "Network Subset Unlocked" & "Service Provider Unlocked"?

I'm wondering if the Q10 that I got is unlocked. It is brand new (from Rogers) and I just noticed this today while going through the menus.

I'm looking for the original BB 9700/9780 ringtones(the PING among many others), the new Q10 doesn't offer much. Unless I'm blind? Please let me know, I googled it, went on Zedge and all but nothing pops up.

Hi

I have been using the new Blackberry Q10 for about 4 days now, it is far from perfect.

My first BB was the Curve 8330, and I have followed every OS upgrade since.

This new OS is missing some key elements to business owners and people used to communicate in a convenient way.

Here are a couple of details I am a little upset about:

1. No more extended remote email search (server search), if it's not on the device (30 days max) then it is hard to find the email.

2. Contact sync doesn't work properly, it worked the first day, after that no idea what happened..

3.It used to be simple to email/sms a contact from the phone log, not anymore.

4.Take a picture, there is no way to find out when this picture was taken (no option, even in the file manager).

5.Airplane mode is not easy to access,why not having this option in the drop-down menu?

6.Reply to an email, the default color is navy blue, why not having the choice of the color?


I have been trying to contact Blackberry via Twitter, no help, via the support forum, it has been limited...

Do I have time to wait for updates ?

Anybody else having some Q10 issues/frustrations?

As a longtime Windows 6.5 phone user, and few month Android Droid Razr user, seriously considering moving service to T-Mobile I am considering the Blackberry Z10.

I never had or used a Blackberry device before. However I do know they are considered most Robust a pushing email into the handset.

10 Questions:

1) With a moderate amount of use...mostly emails on the order of 20 sent and received each day, and very little if any browsing...what kind of real battery usage can I stretch from a single full charge? With my current Droid Razr 2 (similar 1780 ma battery) I get about 40-55 hrs between charges.

2) Are there built in or available battery saving apps that be used to schedule the hours of each day for data syncing etc (like Moto Droid's Smart Actions.

3) Will non Blackberry account emails (GMAIL IMAP or Yahoo POP3 server accounts) be pulled or pushed to the device? If so can the frequency of pushing or pulling email be limited or controlled?

4) Can Google browser be installed in place of Bing as the default browser?

5) Is there any way to sync calendars and contacts with Office Outlook on my PC?

6) Can voice notes be activated or assigned to a side (smart) key?

7) Can you generally hold the device and open menus or dial with a single hand without fear of dropping?

8) Is the case and screen immune to scratching or scuffing?

9) How loud and clear are callers voices and do callers report your voice being?

10) Do you find Blackberry Hub useful?


Any answers to any or all of the above would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

I have the opportunity to switch to a corporate plan and if I get the Z10 (which I have tried and liked at several stores), I can get a $300 bill credit with Rogers. I currently have an iPhone 4 that is slow and boring and had the Galaxy S and S2 so have used all platforms. I am loyal to none really and comfortable using all 3.

I like the main features of the Z10 like th Hub and gestures and for me, it is intuitive and will get better I would think.

I would love to hear existing owners who have had the phone for a while if they would recommend I get it. Not worried about apps so no need to go there...

Thanks!

Blackberry Messenger is coming to - or should I say going Android and iOS this summer.

Should be interesting to see how this plays out for Blackberry. Will it cause users to leave BB for Android and iOS or will it bring people back to BB now that they're not only limited to Blackberry users.

What about you? Will this cause you to come back or leave?

about once a day my phone will just lock up and freeze. the backlight will be on but the screen is frozen and wont respond, i have to pull the battery and reboot.

i have the latest firmware on my phone. any ideas?

The 9320 is cheaper if bought by Virgin than by Mobilicity or Wind. My old Bold 9780 is no longer functioning and I need to replace it.

I see that Mobi's frequencies for the 9320 are UMTS/HSPA and GSM. However Virgin's doesn't mention anything.

Would anyone here know? If I could save money buying it from Virgin and unlocking it i'd like to do that.


Thanks!

I got my Blackberry Q10 about 1 week ago and I manually created all my accounts as opposed to using Blackberry Desktop from my Blackberry Bold 9700 to my Blackberry Q10.

I have gotten my e-mail accounts working without any issues as well as my contacts and calendar (as well as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn).

On my Blackberry 9700, I have a lot of reoccurring tasks with specified due dates which re-occur every x number of months, weeks, or days.

From what I gather, on Blackberry 10, the Reminder application is supposed to replace the Tasks but when using the Reminder application, I can set a due date for the task but I can't seem to find a way to make it re-occur every x days/weeks/months. Am I missing anything?

Because I saw that my Blackberry Hub can be set up to synchronize with Evernote, I created an Evernote account but there isn't any re-occuring notes/tasks there either.

Any ideas?

I'm getting ready to put my son's Blackberry Curve back onto a prepaid plan along the lines of PagePlus or Talk for Good. Those plans tend to limit the number of text messages and I'd prefer my son not be able to claim he can't chat me because of lack of texting messages. I wanted to install something like Whatsapp to use his small data allotment towards messaging but it declares it needs a full BB Internet plan and not just a regular data plan. Is anyone aware of messaging programs, perhaps like Skype or something similar that work with just regular data? I'm trying to avoid downloading, installing and uninstalling a dozen programs as that is a rather slow process on this Curve.

Thanks in advance!

My question is whether email on Blackberry 10 works just like the old Blackberries - were when you first setup an account, a few of your inbox email will download (but not all) and than if you delete emails in your inbox online, it would not delete off your Blackberry.

Or does it now work more like the iPhone or Android where everything you do, no matter whether its on the phone or online syncs. For example, if I setup my email will it sync my entire inbox, and if I delete an email from my inbox will it stay on the Blackberry or delete off the phone like the way it works on iPhone or Android?

Couldnt seem to find information about this anywhere... Hoping it syncs like on iPhone...

Thanks.

Hey guys,

Just looking for a value check for an unlocked Blackberry Bold 9900 in White. Perfect condition (no scratches, dents or damage).

Original box, accessories, cables, and unused headphones,

Incipio DRX case in black ($35?)

Screen protector applied (lifetime warranty) no screen scratches.

Anyone put a resale value on this so I can list it for sale? It was with Bell Mobility but it's unlocked now and worked with Bell, Telus and Rogers.
