walcolm:
i'm sure you should know by now that Nigerians naturally exploit each other. to cut your sim at the friendship centre for your network should be free but expect to be charged around 1000

i won't advise you to cut the sim yourself

marious: I'm using White BB Q10 and I'm loving it now I can access all my stuffs @ the same time on the go.... I have "Sideloaded" over 50 Android apps and 20 games on it by myself...... GOD Bless BlackBerry for doing this Smartphone

stanhanks: you need to but a 'token' before you can use your gtb Mastercard online. To do this you have to apply for it at any of their branches

walcolm:

carrier billing is not available in Nigeria so you need to have an acceptable debit/credit card associated with your BBID

confirm you have that?

lymelyte:

if carrier billing is not available in nigeria,then why are they shipping blackberry fones here?i am using a gtb mastercard and i also have a token which works perfectly.And as a matter of fact,i have bought items online with my card so i see no reason why i cant use it on bb APP WORLD.

Jarnik: Please House, I just bought a Z10 and I have been trying to download my normal weekly Games of Thrones series, but the native z10 browser is not giving me options to save, rather it streams it. Pls how can I go about downloading videos with z10? Pls I need answers urgently . Team Z10 all the way

walcolm:

no carrier in Nigeria has implemented the 4G...the highest claim is 3.75G by etisalat..all the others claim only 3.5G..how that displays on your phone is H+

Back to your question, the most cost effective data plan for the BB10 devices (MB:Price ratio) is by Glo and Airtel depending on how fast they are in your area. They allow their vanilla BIS plan to work on BB10 devices. i will suggest the MONTHLY COMPLETE PLAN...

Don't waste your time with MTN and Etisalat unless you're ready to buy their more expensive BB10 data plan

walcolm: --------Post updated today 23rd July------

For those now on the z10, Q10 and now Q5 devices running on the new blackberry 10 OS, post your requests, observations here.

Been using one since March 2013 and I can help you with questions you may have

DATA PLAN

FULL BIS will still work with no problem on all networks

Stay away from 'Social' Plans on all networks....they don't work

COMPLETE plans should work cos it only restricts no of email addresses you can register on BIS but BB10 doesn't handle email with BIS. i use this particular BIS flavor on Glo and Airtel and i can confirm they work flawlessly

UPDATE: I have a first hand experience that Glo BB COMPLETE PLAN work with no problem

New BB10 Data plans,
STAY AWAY from GLO BB10 MIDMONTH plan, it has been placed on 2G network to block video and audio streaming

The great news is BB10 will run on any normal data plan for andriods, iPhone, mifi etc so we dont even need the crappy BB10 plans being introduced by the networks

APPS
To get the very best apps on the BB10 OS, look for apps with the 'BUILT FOR BLACKBERRY' designation.
if you search with those keywords in Blackberry world, you'll see a long list of apps that are in that category

sydney01:
