Hello friends, good day to everyone, I just downloaded HANGOUTS apk, on my Q10 and it was successfully installed but whenever I try to open it, it would ask me to update my Google services. Pls help as I do not know how to go about that. Thanks to you all

If you're not on 10.3.2 OS version, upgrade and see if that solves the problem

Cruize306:
I bought my z3 brand new and the software release is 10.3. 1.1565

Any need for further upgrade at the moment?

Yeah, you should upgrade to 10.3.2

remove your sim, connect to a wifi and check for update

MARKone:
Good day house. Has Glo increased the price of the COMONTH plan, because I have more than 1k on my line, and they keep saying I don't have enough money for the plan. If the have what is the new price.

pls somebody should help o

Youtube is already on the device by default...if you have deleted it, go to BlackBerry world and reinstall

BlackBerry blend mirrors your BlackBerry 10 on a pc or tablet

Hybrid600:
You may have to kiss the phone goodbye. Your BBID and password is the only sure way of retrieving your pin since you don't have your phone box anymore.

your BBID can be attached to a BB10 device and an android device....if you go to protect.blackberry.com, log in with the BBID and password, you should see your blackberry 10 device

Maafiaalady:
I don't have it on blackberry protect.

do u still have the box for the device? the BBPIN is always written on the box

1. What OS version did you have installed before the device was stolen? if you have updated to 10.3.2, then you're in luck because whoever stole your phone cannot use it
2. do you still remember your BBID and password? you can log on to BB Protect website to view where your phone is

welcome back

this error simply means your device is not accessing data...answer the following

1. do you have a data subscription?
2. do you have the right APN set for your data subscription and your network?
3. is your device branded to any network?

benedictjohn:
bro,I have done it but no changes.

post the error screen so we can better understand the issue

xtianchris:
the blackberry protect is off..can I perform security wipe..so it can be erased?

xtianchris:
My password isn't working on my bbQ10 app world..i tried different id's it still insist I put the initial password. I even tried the password is not working..i can't use BBM and appworld.. pls help

did you buy a used device? what OS is the device on?

the easiest solution is for you to put in the right BBID and password

Yeske:
My Q5 fell this afternoon and I discovered the screen is no longer showing. It's just blank as if the phone is not switched on. Messages are coming in, same with calls. But I can't see anything. What do I do please?

your screen is damaged...you need to replace it

benedictjohn:
Pls some1 should direct me.. My blackberry q5 isn't connecting to BBM even wen I am connected to WIFI.. Pls what's d problem?

go to 'settings', 'BlackBerry ID' and enter your BBID and password

@zsch,
sorry about what you're going through but it seems you have been scammed by affordables. a new phone doesn't behave like that. the problem is most definitely NOT a software problem

ollah1:
Tizen is still in its early phase and the phone running on it is budget. Samsung provided a method that allows it to run android apps, out of the box or not(dunno). But do you think bb would have added android runtime if it wasn't for lack of apps? So many users wouldn't even have a bb10 if bb didn't include this method in it's os.

I don't think it's official but the name is insta10
Modified

the problem i have with your post is the incoherence

BB10 was available for close to a year before android runtime was introduced to bring android apps to BB10 to add to the 250k-300k BB10 native apps available at the time.

more than 700k and probably more of the 1billion android apps can be installed on BB10

Windows mobile has just over 300,000 apps and no one is shouting death to microsoft

Insta10 is a native BB10 app not a tizen app

Your first sentence made me wonder if you understood his second paragraph at all.

Thanx for that

What's the 'catch ' with 10.3.2...I'm not sure but I heard something about locking id or something?

what you heard are
1. once you update to 10.3.2, you cannot downgrade to a lower OS

2. once you log in with a BBID and password to a BB10 device running OS 10.3.2 and above for the very first time, you have to use the same BBID/password combination to free that device. wiping the phone will not allow another person to log in to the device. the advantage of that is that your BB10 will be useless to a thief.if the thief wipes it and sells it to an unsuspecting buyer, that buyer will never be able to associate that device with their own BBID

It's already on its way...
And BlackBerry has been on android

Really? Seriously? Are u like the only one who doesn't know that's the android runtime that allows you to install android apps on a BlackBerry 10

And no, blackberry has not been on android...android runs as an app on BlackBerry 10 because the OS is bada$$ enough to run another OS which is something no other mobile OS has been able to replicate

i cant put anything past John Chen but i dont think they will release an android device this year

xtianchris:
i cant signout from by Bb q10 app world. i couldn't find any

Go to settings and look for BlackBerry ID.

fairlyisabel:
every website dear.

go to page 5 and confirm if your download process is the same as what is on that page. a screen capture of then error will also help in diagnosing the problem

just look for another autoloader to load. if the OS version on the autoloader is the very latest 10.3.2, try getting an older version, maybe a 10.3.1 OS and see if that helps

read the documentation that comes with any autoloader. most times Q5 and Q10 come in the same package but not a must and not always so, dont just assume

fairlyisabel:
I have noticed that I cannot download musics and films with q10. Each time I click on save file, it gives me an error message

Does that happen on every website you try to download from or a particular website?

lankyuchebanky:
Pls when I down load song on my BlackBerry z10 it only plays the song and not save the song I have upgraded it to the latest version of os.what do I do

Solution is on page 5

Goodnuel:
Sometimes, it's about the network and browser you are using. When I used Glo and airtel, I faced same thing downloading with my native browser and Firefox. That time, I used uc mini and dolphin browser to download.

Now, I use Etisalat, I download with all the browsers.

Be careful so you don't mislead people....the behavior of the browser's downloader has nothing to do with the network....absolutely nothing

fairlyisabel:
Christ. Walcolm and co what have I done that none of you is replying my post? Hmm am afraid you guys are wicked to me but that's ok.

What was your request?

rosebase:
Hi all, pls how can I download into my media card? every info I download go straight into my device which is almost full. I use bbQ5.

when you want to download you can set your location or manually move your files from the device storage to your media card

Harry4cas:
Which other native browser(s) do you all have on your phones apart from the custom blackberry browser?

I think there are a few native BlackBerry 10 browsers beside the stock browser on BlackBerry world but they're mostly paid apps

luckshine:
I just bought bb z10 (stl100-1) OS version 10.1.0.4181) when I switched on the phone and kept it, I observed the phone started heating up without even operating it and the battery too was also draining without operating it under 2g network. Pls guys what will I do to stop this hotness and the drainage
