haywire1: Can someone pls confirm if MTN bis still works on bb10 cos i sub for the bbcday(100) mtn bis but not working on my Q10
MTN and etisalat bis are a hit and miss...the networks that work with BlackBerry 10 devices are glo and airtel

KenJADE: Please, does the 10.2.1.xxxx leak solve instagram keypad issues on z10?
In 10.2.1.xxxx, you don't need to side load instagram as such whatever keyboard issues from the side load realm are no longer an issue

Folks,

Something strange happened today...woke up and replied to some posts around 7am and the autobot on nairaland banned me from posting to the phone section

That is why I have jot been able to respond to any post since morning

Had to mail the section mods to remove the ban

babiebearie: yes it is...internet.ng.airtel.com and I av H bt no bb logo
That's strange considering you've been using the sim for bis..what you can do is subscribe to the daily plan of 100 naira to jump-start the sim for your BlackBerry 10

Load 100 naira airtime and dial *141*712*11#

You need to update your OS

That is a problem with the earliest version of BlackBerry 10
PhonesRe: Blackberry 10 Devices Home: Z10, Q10 Etc by walcolm(op): 5:46pm On Jan 02, 2014
As it is charging, press the button until it switches off
PhonesRe: Blackberry 10 Devices Home: Z10, Q10 Etc by walcolm(op): 5:27pm On Jan 02, 2014
There's a button at the top of the phone. Press it until the phone switches off

Charge it the same way you charge any phone. The light will blink green when it's charging and switched off
PhonesRe: Blackberry 10 Devices Home: Z10, Q10 Etc by walcolm(op): 3:49pm On Jan 02, 2014
You need data services of some sort to activate the phone and set it up the first time

Happy New Year folks

Hopefully we will see the fabled low cost Jakarta BlackBerry 10 that will drive penetration of the new OS and bring all those still using bbos 4,5,6 &7 to BlackBerry 10

I also hope we see a quad or octa core BlackBerry this year

Based on the message you got, your bis has not yet been activated.

That could happen because it's a first time subscription
PhonesRe: Annoying Things People Do With Their Phones by walcolm(m): 6:22pm On Dec 31, 2013
sкчscrαρεr™:
- Using a phone as bible: This particular one is not only annoying to man but God. It amazes me how some people feels comfortable using their phone/tablet as a means of reading the scriptures. Are they so lazy that they couldn't go to church with a bible? Apparently, some people go to church without a bible because after church is partying, and I suppose they don't wanna look like that church-freak inside a club. If you're that person doing this, please change because God is watching you in 3D.
This section almost discredited every other thing you had on your post

First of all, you're not God so you can't know what annoys God or doesn't

Secondly, When the ten commandments were given to Moses if you believe the account of the bible, they were inscribed on tablets made of rock so those who transcribed it to scrolls and then to the paper you carry around have all committed a sin because what they did is no different from putting the contents of the bible into digital form that can be carried on phones and electronic tablets

Thirdly, those who carry theirs on their phones have a bible with them at all times and if they ever need to reference the bible, they can easily reach it as opposed to you who carries your paper bible only once a week when you go to church

Do I need to fill the username and password? Coz they've activated the bis but I can't still browse
You can give it sometime. It should come up. It's probably because this is your first bis subscription

Apn is fine as you have it

hooged: Abegiii, I just can't afford not to have it
what exactly do you do with the opera browser that you think you can't do with the BB browser

BB browser allows you to pause a download. if a download fails due to network issues, you can restart it when your data service is back and you won't have to start all over. it will just continue from where it stopped before

i don't think there's anything opera does that's that fantastic...i have two variants installed on my S3 and i don't use them....i use the stock browser and Google Chrome more

grab this file from my dropbox...this is the latest leaked version for the Z10 STL100-1

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/82109696/BlackBerry/Autoloader.Z10.STL100-1.OS.10.2.1.1925.SW.537.7z

you need to download it using a PC...its 1Gb, unzip it and install the autoloader file...make sure BB Link is not running on your PC when you run the autoloader

it will upgrade you to 10.2.1.1925 and you can forget about sideloading apps...you install .apks directly

this https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/82109696/BlackBerry/1MobileMarket_com.android.apps.apk gives you the 1mobile android app store where you can install android apps from

LOL

That means you didn't read post 1 on page 0. It points you to a post on page 5 where I specifically mentioned the words 'save link as' and also attached a picture of the icon

Anyways, all is well that ends well and I trust you will have a blast downloading files with the bada$$ BlackBerry 10 browser

toyingbad: It happens to me too. I snap pictures and after checking. I can't don't seem to find some of the pictures I took
When you take pictures, the file is saved in a 'camera' folder either in your internal storage (default) or the 'camera' folder on your micro SD card

You can manually search the out by opening your file manager app

iam_Demigod: Please guys do I have to change apn to blackberry.net afta doing the Glo subscription for it to work? I did mtn daily and it's not working for me currently
When you put a glo sim in a BlackBerry 10 device, the apn is automatically set to BlackBerry.net unless you manually change it
PhonesRe: Blackberry 10 Devices Home: Z10, Q10 Etc by walcolm(op):
Can you provide a bit more information on the problem you're having with pictures is it that you can't find where the files are saved or when you open them they don't display?

Cheapest data plan is regular bis and all the networks now offer 2-3gb for just 1k. AIRTEL and glo bis are confirmed to work on BlackBerry 10 devices. MTN and etisalat have mixed successes

Read earlier posts for guidance

cupid4ig: Another the other images are more than 200kb so when I get home i will resize the pics and post here. I have to go to where there is strong mtn signal to do this. Maybe it's not working for everyone but it's is working for me lol
i think its safe to say that @cupid4ig has been able to show MTN BIS works on a BB10 device

its possible the scenario is the same as what happened with etisalat where some people are able to use the regular BIS on other devices while some are not able to
