Y are pple even bordered bout dis. Its very simple. If u using a BlackBerry 10 os fone. ( z10 z30 z3, q10, q5, leap, classic & passport) u dnt need worry. Jst upgrade yur operating system and den download facebook for andriod ( which is actually beta dan fb for BlackBerry) also download watsapp for andriod. U can do dis via a quiet num of ways e.g tru d 1mobile market app. Amazon app ( comes preinstaled wit d latest operating system of BlackBerry 10 fones as a substitute for BlackBerry app world) u can also do dis by downloading and installing d apk of d app u want to download ( in dis case Facebook n watsapp) but for d BlackBerry 7 n co os. Am Afraid dis is d end for dem exept john chen ( BlackBerry ceo) succeeds in convincing dis app developers to change dia minds

Solution is pretty simple, I have 2 WhatsApp running on my BlackBerry Q10, I actually bought a Bb10 device to carry out the experiment first hand, my findings; no need to panic for BlackBerry 10 users, just upgrade to blackberry to the more stable 10.3.2.2836 to run apk more freely, install playstore and Google play services and you are good to go!! See screen shots.
Observe that am currently using 2 WhatsApp, I have Google play store installed, I have Xender and a host of other apk stuffs I need.. BlackBerry is so awesome cheesy
Typed this post from my UC Browser, android version

With the current deadline of 31st of December 2016 by Whatsapp to make the social medial platform inaccessible for BlackBerry users what will be the fate of hardened BlackBerry lovers like me who wouldn't want to part with their smartphone and still wanna enjoy whatsapp??

I just hope whatsapp change their decision before the due date..


Get android......or be left behind!

Uhmmm download/get the app, install it, register your account, and voila...all you need to do is import any android app (games, applications etc) and install it on the bluestacks. And that's it. grin smiley

Can you send files and pictures to your contacts with the Android version of WhatsApp that you downloaded? It appears that this feature is restricted/denied on the apk version of WhatsApp on BB10.

Noticed that today, can't send files or pictures.

Whatsapp pushed update to my z10 yesterday, I just ignored it...

Remember that's how Facebook pushed the last update, and those that updated said it changed their Facebook app to just Web browsing app.

But I just hope whatsapp apk will work after they remove the whatsapp in BlackBerry store. It's platform is even different it's different from bb10 whatsapp and it works

BlackBerry 10 Security and stability is da bomb (no matter the apps you have it the phone will not crash)
I hope they maintain it in their android phone too...


It will work very fine but, you won't be able send media files conveniently some won't go through. BB10 developers are already building an app called Waa Fixer to fix that bug. But sure you'll still continue to use WhatsApp on BB with ease even after they leave by December.
