Kelvinprinzyy: I just dey vex here, I subscribed 3k for the 6G bt unfortunately I typed *440*16# instead of *440*016# dey removed my whole 3k nd gave me 4G Jesus for Only 1month

only one month? i don't think so....it should be at least 2 months if they removed your 3k and gave you 4GB. check the date in the text they sent to you again

For those who have now downloaded BB10.2 OS, headless apps are beginning to show up

headless apps are utility apps that can work in the background and don't need to stay open in active frame to do what you want them to do
2 apps are now available

1. FlipShush to mute your phone when you flip it face down. http://appworld.blackberry.com/webst...tent/19967732/

2. Aerize LockPic-Wallpaper For LockScreen And Home Screen. http://appworld.blackberry.com/webst...tent/31515902/

cupid4ig: mehn i think its time to switch to glo, airtel has bn nothing but sad for the past 3 weeks. even snail is faster even with 3g.

Do you have the right APN setting ?
Did you jump start your sim with the daily plan?

For those using youversion bible app, the app is now native

You can download or update at this link

Check out Bible in BlackBerry World! You can find it at http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/1222

tightabbey: Thanks @walcolm. I know how to change a display picture. Wat I'm encountering is either a network is or sth. And also,trust me, I don't know how to side load. Pls help me with it. Thanks again

i have posted links to help with side loading severally...scan through the thread for my posts and you should be able to find them

lol...this is not a thread for iPhone 5s

Genuflect: Uhn? Seen it from a distance The fudge. I've seen what it can do. I've operated it and I've seen its prowess. How can you even compare BB10's appstore to that of iOS and Andy?? Are u ok? Andy is open source. Cool apps popping up everyday. iOs still holds the title tho. And you dare to mention BB when we're talking apps? I doubt u're a geek. Geeks don't use BB. You said it yourself, less than 10% of those using it are geeks. Most Z10 are even try to port Google Play Store on their BB. Guy use your Z10 but don't compare it to the greats

loooolllll...you're totally obtuse....75% of all the apps available on Google play now work on BB10 devices...BB10 is the only OS that can boost of being able to do that. if you add that to the 300k apps available for BB10 only....how far behind is BB10 in terms of apps?

on BB10 being used by people who are non-geeks, that was to counter your mumu argument about the OS being un-user friendly....

you have only seen BB10 devices from a distance and you don't know sh1t about them...you don't know jack about how they work and what they can do...so hold on to your android and stop blabbing about what you don't know

i don't think these are great Java apps because these same apps are available on other platforms and are even rendered better on those platform

this thread doesn't make any sense

dryakson: Hello house,after downloading the android bbm, i registered with my email but up til now they did not send the pin to my email.
Did you guys experience such if no how did you go about yours?

just go to your BBM on the android and log in right now...you should be able to get in

i'm wondering why people think someone has to loose because BBM is now available to iPhone and Android users.

kdf3449: @ Walcolm and ciwi,you guys are rendering alot of assistance here, kudos to your good work. Please i am trying to move my BBM contact from my bold 5 to my Q10 but when i put in my email address in the Q10,the contacts doesn't move. I don't know if i didn't do a proper back up for the bold 5. What do you guys advise?

from your Bold 5, make sure you are running \blackberry OS 7.1 and you have the latest version of all your apps...go to BB World, and install all the updates available for all your apps. of special note are Blackberry world itself, BBM, BBID and BB Protect

once you have updated all of them and your phone has restarted, make sure you log into BB World and BB Protect on the Bold 5 with your BBID and that your BBM is connected to that BBID, that way all your BBM contacts are now attached to that BBID

for completeness, do a back up with BB Protect. once everything is done

log into the BB10 device with that BBID and open BBM. you should get a prompt asking you to confirm if you want to move all your BBM contacts

Say YES and you should have all your BBM contacts on the BB10 device

tightabbey: Morning team members,pls I need clarifications on some things; 1. How do I download instagram on my Z10? Cos its not on instagram. 2. I don't know if it has happened to anyone here once,problems changing dp's. How do I go about it? Cos for days now,I've not been able to change my dp. And also how do I update to Os 10.2? Still on Os 10.1. Even tho,it says, I'm on the latest software update. Thanks. Will Really appreciate ur responses.

1. you need to sideload instagram...official app not yet released for Blackberry but two Instagram clients are in the works and should be available before year end

2. to change your dp, from BBM, tap your own name at the top and tap your picture...you should see an icon that say 'replace picture'
tap that icon and browse to the picture you want to use

3. install Blackberry Link to your PC (make sure you are using the latest version), make sure your internet connection is tight and connect your BB to the PC via a USB cable

holusormi: @walcom

i saw some games a few moments ago, dark knight arises, ashpalt 7 or so
just wanted to ask if it will paly on the Q10 before i waste my money in downloading it
cos i fink dose games are better adapted for the screen of the z10 and z30, will they paly fine on the q10 ?

open Blackberry World from your Q10, any game you see there will play on the Q10

oppre26: @walcolm
Can i browse with the hotspot from a BlackBerry Q10 with a glo sim on another phone or iPad?
I saw ur response to the post before mine and wanted to be sure I was reading right cos the last I tried, I couldn't browse with it.
@walcolm
My bad. A normal data bundle will work, but not a BIS or BES right?

Glo bis works

Genuflect: It's not an assumption. I've seen the z10 and I know a few owners. It's not for geeks. Is it the app store we want to talk abt? Or the fact that it's not that user friendly? It's functionality is not up to par and I still hate that it takes long just to boot. I don't take my bb serious. It's just for the net. Finish

You clearly don't know what you are talking about. That you see it from a distance doesn't mean you know anything about it. I know lots of people who use BlackBerry 10 devices and less than 10% are geeky.

What about thé app store ? What happened to it ? Almost 300k apps in less than a year of launching the OS and you're here making noise. Apple and android had less than 10k apps one year after they were launched

femside: Hello guys please I need ur help I want to change to glo on my z10 formally using airtel but please I want to confirm if I can use hot spot wifi on glo cus I share it with my iPhone may god bless u guys

Yeah you can

stevolinkon40: guy park well make i spread my mat, am not using p3, am using phantom AII and i wasnt comparing tecno fones to the bb o.s10 devices, even if i was, you are nt using d bb o.s10 afterall. Gat one word for you. 'Sharaap'

How do u know what I'm using or not using?

You're the one who needs to shut up

Niiade: i didnt sideloaded but aint working

I know Instagram works if the right bar file is used and it is properly side loaded.

Check page 0 of this thread for a link to a site where you can get the right bar files

Niiade: getting certain apps to work on it like intagram, surbway surf, temple run and more. thanks

Did you see those apps in BlackBerry World ?

Niiade: Still need help to get some apps working on my z10. Thanks

What type of help?

Rowybest: i am using wifi

Is your wi-fi fast ?
Do you have space on the internal memory ?

The 10.2 update roll out has been nothing short of impressive so you should not have a problem updating unless maybe your network provider has not pushed it. I know glo and airtel have both pushed it and my cousin in law on etisalat is also able to update

What you can do is use the BlackBerry Link to do the update. Get the latest version of BlackBerry Link, plug your device to the pc and you should get a notification that there's an update
