BoostBerry How-To...everything you need to get the native browser and MMS working

[jac1599]

Thanks. I do have plus yahoo, but I read that mail forwarding forwards ALL of the incoming messages. I don't want the stuff from my BULK/SPAM folder. Do you know of a way to keep this from happening?

Not 100% sure. Gmail has a pretty good Spam filter and you can use the Gmail App to report Spams, so you won't be bothered by the same people from that point forward. But, unless Yahoo forwarding allows for selective forwarding of folders (check your Yahoo Mail Plus! Settings area) you may want to set up a filter in your Gmail account. Assuming that all identified spam in yahoo is labelled [spam] (or something like it) in the subject area or body of the message, all you have to do is filter out all incoming mail that has the notation [spam] anywhere in the message and you will no longer see spam forwards from yahoo.

what phone????

Are you seeing NXTL in all caps? If not (and all is well with your account) remove the battery from your device for 30 seconds and restart the phone. If you happen to lose the Hotpspot Browser and MMS support, repeat the "sticky" procedure to reactivate Hotspot Browser and MMS. Internet with Opera Mini works without the MMS/Hotspot Browser upgrade, so your problem is most likely that you are not fully on the network, which a reboot should fix for you.

I have everything working perfectly..mms, wifi, blackberry maps,even youtube. The native browser will not connect unless I am near a wi-fi signal.Where did I go wrong? Also tried to add Opera 4.2 (failed at end of installation) & Opera 3 (will not connect for some reason). Any thoughts?

Can I get blackberry maps for the 7100i? It's not on there, and I haven't seen where to download it.

does the NEXTEL BLACKBERRY 7510 work on boost with the sticky procedure and can you activate the sim using the BB.

Which guide did you use?? The PDF guide or the one posted by Yeswap or Amysharren?? My PDF guide has pictures and everything to walk you through the process step by step.

Where is the PDF file.. I tried to find it but couldn't??? I also followed your instructions and got to the last step and it told me there was a fatal error to try again.. PLEASE HELP!

The PDF file is located on http://www.boostcentral.com in the Blackberry on Boost section. You must register to access it.

You can activate a 7510 with a Boost starter kit sim, that's been reported in a couple of threads here. I don't know if the 7520 service books will work with the 7510. It may depend on the version of your 7510's OS.

I'm prettty sure I'm going to buy a i7520, would it be worth wild to pay fora pre-activated sim, or is it just as easy and gurented to just activate using a BB? Also on all black berrys on boost, do they really get free web weather you pay or not?

Just buy a Boost starter kit. Activating is no problem at all, just use phone-in activation insead of online activation.

Internet data is free on Boost. Data applications like Opera MIni -- or YWeather! which I just mentioned in another thread -- don't cost you a cent.

Ok so I got moved over here.. Yes I installed the BB OS on my computer, and it finally went through. But there was no hotspot browser. And I can't dowload any apps. I can receive messages but can't send them. Dn for some reason now the BB browser has disappeared..

This is aggravating... I now have a 7100i for sale! Errrrrr
