z10 comes with which os and when i get it, can i upgrade to have the assistant too

If you buy from most Nigerian sellers, it'll probably come with the latest official OS..10.2.1.3247

Kash007:
BIS doesnt work on bb10. Subscribe to a data plan.

The quoted post above is totally wrong.

Glo and airtel bis work perfectly on BlackBerry 10 devices in nigeria.

mtn and etisalat have blocked their bis on BlackBerry 10 devices, that's the only reason bis of those two networks don't work

tziz:
Does Blackberry Blend work for anybody on 10.3.xxxxx? Iv bin trying to connect it wit my tab to no avail, I hav d app on my tab alredy frm Playstore and hav done d necessary sign in n my Z3 detects d tab n vice versa, buh d app on d tab tries to connect n end up telling me "cannot connect"

you'll only be able to get blend to work with 10.3.0 if you are using a Passport or P'9983..

tomiobj:
t700$ in us. IPhone 6 is 640$ in us. IPhone 6 is 200k + in nigeria. So it shud be lyk 250k. Very cheap

Passport is $600 not $700 in the US

Your mum has to visit the registrars office to request all her outstanding dividends

She can also request a new certificate from them. To sell she will need to open a stock broking account

@10, it's totally overpriced and more than 5 years worth of earning already priced in

If the shares are listed expect a nose dive. The parent company is worth less than 10 naira per share

queenlabisi:

dandollar1:
Hello guys, can one subscribe to glo comonth while you still need an active data? If so, will your data from previous subscription be added to the new one or will be wiped out?

Yep

zboyd:
Below are three financial models found in some households but there are others, depending on the couple.

Model 1.

Faith* is a working wife who has proactively argued for gender equality, insists she is entitled to have a career just like her husband but doesn't feel she should contribute financially to the household. She was raised to believe that the man is the head of household, and therefore, responsible for all the bills in the household. In spite of working full-time, she still takes care of all the housework and the needs of their two children. According to Faith*, this method justifies her decision of keeping her money in the bank, rather than contributing towards household expenditures. However, this mindset doesn't set too well with her husband who believes household expenditures should be shared, based on what each spouse makes. He thinks she's using him and he resents it. She and her husband are on the verge of separation because she refuses to budge.

Model 2.

Beatrice* takes great pride in contributing to the household. It gives her a sense of accomplishment. But she feels she should have equal say in household decisions, if a portion of her salary is going towards household expenditures. Unfortunately, her traditionally-minded husband disagrees with her. He was raised to believe that the husband is supposed to be the head of household, not the wife, therefore, the husband has the final say, when it comes to ANY decisions in the household. However, Beatrice* was raised differently. Her mother was also a working wife and shared in all the decision-making in the household with her father. So Beatrice's husband attitude is a source of constant frustration. She's even beginning to resent him. She feels his mindset is backwards and unfair and feels he doesn't respect her or her economic contributions to the household. The thought of being a single mother of two terrifies her but she feels her husband is so set in his ways that there's little hope their marriage can be saved.

Model 3.

Tamar* is a working wife who is married to a husband who believes in gender equality, except in the area of household expenditures. He doesn't expect her to contribute ANY money to the household and has never asked her. He was raised to believe that as a husband, he is responsible for paying each and every bill in the household, including those pertaining to the children, even if his wife is gainfully employed. So any money Tamar makes is her money and none of his business. If he has to take on a second or third job, to make ends meet, so be it. He doesn't tolerate any discussion of the matter. Most wives would envy Tamar's position but she is worried that her husband works too hard at times. She fears he may keel over from a stress-induced heart attack, leaving her a young widow, with three kids to raise. So she saves back most of her salary, in the event her husband becomes incapacitated and the household expenditures fall on her shoulders.

Where do you stand on this issue?

*Names have been changed.

@OP, nice post and quite relevant to the world we now live in.

the only problem i have with the post is that you have painted 3 different pictures of the wife but only one of the husband....that's putting men in a myopic box and that's unfair to the male gender. there are men who believe in the feminist ideologies and will be more than happy to support and marry a feminist. the problem with feminism in this part of the world is that most women now hide under the ideology to commit murder. they want the freedom and perks feminism brings but they dont want the responsibilities that comes with the power. the proverbial faith is a prime example of a woman who wants the freedom of feminism but doesnt want the responsibility that goes with it

the proverbial faith in your post is also a liar if she claims she takes care of the household chores and the needs of two children...no woman can work full time and do that. the househelp paid for by the husband is probably the one doing the chores and caring for the children 80% of the time because she's at work full time like the husband so claiming that as her contribution and excuse for withholding her earnings from the family is a lie

the proverbial beatrice deserves to have a say in the affairs of the family if her husband accepts her contribution to the family finances. if she's putting in 100% of her earnings just like her husband is putting in 100% of his earnings into the family purse, then she deserves to have an equitable say in the family decisions

MsTIQ:
Guys pls enlighten me... I did the airtel 1,400 plan, the bbc and was credited with a 1Gb. which unexpectedly is dwindling fast( a new bb10 user, Q5 specific) and I dnt wanna port to glo. So I would like to enquire maybe the supposed airtel unlimited for 1,500N with data cap of 2Gb will work on the bb1o. Help a brother pls

yes airtel BIS works on BB10 devices...airtel now treats BB10 devices the same way they treat androids and iOS so expect your data to deplete faster than usual

if you want more data FOR LESS, Glo is still your best option

on this thread, we dont tolerate insults and curses...whatever your involvement was, cursing and insulting is never justified even if you are the aggrieved party.

if someone insults you with their post, use the 'report' link below their post and ignore...if you choose to insult them back because you want to prove a point, you're violating the terms of this thread

like i tell everybody here, anyone and everyone is welcome to this thread so long as you are willing to work with us. if you can't control yourself, you dont have to come back here....there are 100s of thousands of threads on nairaland that anyone can be a part of

henry007:
you have made a point, rather late but this isint mxxpunkxx1 and he's clearly not mature enough. aren't you the moderator?

henry007:
mxxpunkxx1 is like a breath of fresh air on this thread....yall are way too stuck up

hmmmmmm

i hope you have all seen what happens when you keep quiet and allow misbehaviours...when i took up punk on this thread for his many insultive posts, 98% of the people here left me to it and looked on..some even got on his side and called him 'fresh of breath air'

now the thread has almost turned into another idiotic nairaland thread where people are unable to derive any value because of endless fights and insults and genuine requests for help are now getting ignored

@olamagnifico, @bigmusty and @skeelz...this is a one time request only...you are not welcome on this thread if you insult or curse anybody....just a single insultive post from any of you and i will make sure you can't post to this thread again

please feel free to create your own thread where you curse out each other

We are only in October and you have data plan expiration date in December. Does that mean you have subscribed 3 times already ? If that's the case you have to wait for your data to run out so you can subscribe again

You can only load a maximum of 3 cycles of the bis at a time and you have to run out of data or time to renew

Skeelzz:
This bb10 native browser is giving me headache,alwaiz says error when downloading large files. It stops at about 50 to 70mb of download and say error and when I press the refresh it starts all over...any oda download option for large files cuz ucbrowser is missing.. the stupid tin wasted my data for notin,even my former bold 5 native browser does a better job

That's strange. I have not experienced what you described and I've been using the native browser for almost two years now...every time I restart. download it continues from where it stopped

Are you sure you don't tap the cancel download instead of restart download ?

If it's a new phone, return it immediately and get a replacement. That camera problem is a hardware issue

When downloading from the mega account, will it resume with downloaders like IDM?

if you use IDM to initiate the download from Mega, then IDM should be able to resume the download

Emrich: Guys I need advice; I have Z10, the stl-100, and the only problem I have is battery. Now I want to give it out but for now Z10 is the BB10 for me, I have fallen for everything about it. So now I'm thinking of getting another variant of it. I heard it mentioned here once that there is a bigger battery one can buy for the Z10. Please guys who knows more about this and can this battery really solve the Z10 battery wahala? Thanks

i will advise you get a Z3 or Z30 and move on from the Z10...the phone is an excellent device but it is now almost two years old while the other two full touch are less than a year and slightly older than a year old respectively

cupid4ig: I don't do mega. I hate that site. I will use bitcasa link with IDM

lordmayor4: I hate mega too... I used bitcasa, in that link, u will find a bitcasa link too.

you guys don't need to hate Mega...you just need to understand how the site works

the best way to get a VERY LARGE file from Mega if you're not sure of your connection is to have a Mega account....once you have an account and you need to download a very large file from another user's account, just ask mega to copy the file to your own Mega account and then download the file to a computer from your account

if you try to download a very large file from another user's account, that download will most likely fail but it won't from your account unless your internet connection is terrible

Gtbank naira Mastercard should work

OluwaGaffin: pls am using Glo bis on my Q5 but some of my applications are not getting access to my network, what should I do pls.

is this a first subscription? make sure you have not tampered with the APN...set it to sim card default and you should be fine

first subscription takes a little while to kick in...give it some time

ninja4life: @walcolm how do I calibrate d battery of bb z10

KGIF = Kakawa Guaranteed Income Fund

you have a minimum guaranteed return on your money/annum (CBN's MRR) and there could be an upside

as it is currently, the space you have left on your internal storage should be sufficient for the download and installation but you can also remove all pictures and all the stuff in your download folder and move them to your media card to create more space, then try again

the issue you have been experiencing are caused by lack of space or shaky wifi connection....

@mo2raur

how much space do you have left on your internal storage? Which device type are you using and where do you store your videos/pictures/etc?
