Will the priv os be pushed out too or it meant for the device only?

There's nothing called priv OS. Priv is the name of of new BlackBerry hardware that will be running on android

God day my people. Is it possible to change the BlackBerry id associate to a bb7 phone without security wipe?

Yes you can.

Make sure you're running the latest bb7 OS and your BBID app is up to date. Also be sure your previous ID has been properly set up

From your phone, go to BlackBerry ID and enter the new ID you want to start using. Follow the prompts from there on

Hello Walcolm, and Anyone who uses a passport.

Please how well does the BlackBerry passport perform as an e-reader? For e-pubs and pdfs.
*not Web pages and things like that*

Whats the resolution like? And at that 1:1 aspect ratio on a 4.5" panel, can you read for extended periods without hassles?

Would you recommend the passport for an avid reader who spends at least 2hours daily reading books?
Or do you think a small-sized tablet will still be needed?

the problem with tablets even the 7" is that you cant log them around all day...with a passport, its your regular phone and reader and you can squeeze a page or two in throughout your day irrespective of where you are

ultimately, a tablet provides larger screen for a more comfortable reading but doesnt give you the versatility and latitude that comes with a passport

Make ona ansa na

If you're unable to charge your device, it's a hardware problem and has nothing to do with the OS upgrade

Either your USB cable is bad or the charging port on the device is bad

Phones › Re: Blackberry 10 Devices Home: Z10, Q10 Etc by walcolm(op): 8:51pm On Sep 22, 2015

Glo bis doesn't allow you to have more than 3 subscription cycles running back to back. That is why you're getting that error message

You have to wait until you exhaust your data or your data expires to start again

Ayima:
I discovered that poor people prefer to have more children than the rich but i think poor people should have less children base on their low level of income.Well, i asked one of my senior friends and he said poor people have sex more becaues it is the source of their joy while wealth is the source of joy for the rich.How true is this?

they do that on the off chance that one of those children will get lucky and become rich so he can take care of them in their old age.

some of these poor people were brought up with that mind set most of the others are just plain irresponsible and they think they can play lottery with nature

Really?
I know Arikawe is in Akure because it was stolen in Akure. I'm sure the phone was stolen in arikawe street not that the phone is in the street presently cos i saw 2days ago and the phone was stolen 2days ago.
About tracing the doorstep through the map, how do i do that?
I really appreciate your response so far.
Thanks and God bless

BlackBerry Protect says the device was last seen two days ago when u last used means the person who stole it has probably not switched it back on. If the device had a lock, the person will typically take it to an engineer to 'flash' it so he can set it up as his own or sell it. All that takes a few days

Send a pin message to the device from another BlackBerry 10 phone and see if it delivers! Also keep visiting the BlackBerry Protect page to check on the device

Phones › Re: Blackberry 10 Devices Home: Z10, Q10 Etc by walcolm(op): 8:25pm On Sep 19, 2015

If u lock the device, the person won't be able to get access into the phone

If I may, What's new in that os?

if you bought a device released for the north American market, you probably already got the first release of the 10.3.2 OTA. if you have installed an autoloader then you have one of the leaks

this 10.3.2.2474 is the formal release of the 10.3.2 for the rest of the world

the number 1 feature of this release is the THEFT Protection....once you install this version no one can flash your device to an older version. if someone steals your device they have to know your BBID and password to gain access to your device otherwise it will be useless to them

I don't think it dose
I tried configuring my back up
To select d apps I wanted to backup their data
But browser was not among

And I can't recall the last time I saw my browsers bookmark after restoring backup

Actually it does. The browser and it's bookmarks are lumped with the system settings and not differentiated as a standalone app. That's why u can't selectively restore it

I just made up my mind to run autoloader for my z30 after doing all back up I needed am stuck with how to backup my browser bookmarks

Th process of backing up with link also backs up your browser bookmarks does it not?
