trae_z: No offence but this is the most laughable thing I've heard in the past 12 hours. So being a tell-all BB user is a standard for judging top of game degrees. LMFAO.

if you want to learn, you can learn or you can go about in your ignorance thinking you're all that

LeJeun3: Its a genuine call, I beleive they suggested they come and do it for you? If not walk in to any of our shops and register your SIM as U risk disconnection.

i figured its genuine as the caller didnt ask me for any info. anyways, with the crappy connection you people have been dishing out, you can disconnect my line for all i care

Danté2013: Hello house. Pls i jus got a pb and i need apps. WORKING LINKS to bar file would be appreciated. GAMERS, ur response wld be much appreciated. I need mad games. Genuwizzi@yahoo.com. Pls pls pls

why do u need bar files? have you downloaded all the available apps from BB World?

sir_gigs: Guys I need help. I just bot a new playbook and setting it up seems an ardous task especially with the wifi ish its asking for?
Plz somebody help
Sir_gigs2003@yahoo.com

you must have wifi to allow it download the latest software when you set it up the first time.

its really appalling how selfish you android and iPhone people are...have you ever put yourself in the shoes of those who use BB?

BB users pay N1200 for 1GB of data with Airtel for example and is barely able to use 100MB of that data in a month because the device just doesn't have the capability to use up the data and the bulk of the data it uses is even compressed further to reduce the data footprint, that comes to effective data cost of N12/MB. you guys pay N3000 for the same 1GB of data which you use up bringing your cost to N3/MB

yet all you people do is come here to whine and cry about injustice and how BB users are getting a better deal without taking the time out to do the math. so who's getting short-changed nah?

finally a BB device that brings a better experience to the BB ecosystem comes and the networks that have been benefiting from taking money for data that never gets used are now quickly turning around to reduce BB data even below what you people ave been using yet you still come here to whine

hillsate: for real?
The more this MNP does not make sense.

of course it makes sense...why would airtel give you N100 airtime when you paid that money to mtn? when you port your line from one network to another, it must be on a clean slate...you cannot be owing them (postpaid) and its your responsibility to make sure you use up your prepaid airtime before requesting the port

Did any body get a call from Airtel that they need to register their number again because Airtel lost the information in their database?

Encoredme: Simple! Not everyone is a bb fan so seeing such a thing will just put them off as I use the email function to upload posts to my blog. It is quite unprofessional and uncalled for to indicate where I sent the message from.

actually, you're wrong about the bold section of your post above.

if you're a blogger, and you post from your BB (indicated by the signature line) it tells your readers you're on top of your game whether you're in the office or on the road and they can be sure you're going to provide responses and clarifications as the need arises. that is the type of thing that earns you the respect and trust of your readers to keep them coming back to your blog

if i was you, the only part i'd remove is the name of the network provider and leave it as such 'Sent from my BlackBerry® smartphone'

your supposed 'embarrassment' by the signature is a self inflicted situation not backed up by real life hard data

trae_z: Duh! Lols. Recipients would be like we get he message already.

Peeps should learn to rummage over their devices when they get them, that way learning many tips that will guide you as you acquire more devices. Cos for example this question is a fairly easy one that one conversant with his/her phone would be able to solve by self..

most people don't take time to learn how their devices work.... that's not news but your post doesn't answer my question to the OP

@OP,

it will be nice for you to create proper threads rather than copying articles from the internet to ramp up your thread count

it is really annoying .....most people here can find the information in 90% of the threads you have created on this forum from their real source on the internet

you need to stop being an echo

can you guys just do a little bit of search...this GLO BIS issue was discussed extensively on another thread.

Wish i was a moderator....

bemagnify: just can't register skype wit ma new sg3. pls help....

skype is now owned by MICROSOFT so you might want to use your HOTMAIL ACCOUNT aka OUTLOOK ACCOUNT to register

eworker: When you login to your account, you will immediately see a dialogue box asking you what's on your mind. Type whatever you want and post it. Your message should go to your friends and the public, if you have already enabled these in your profile settings.

the OP was asking how he could share a NL post to his facebook profile

Encoredme: I use a BB curve 2. Each time I send a mail it automatically adds this: Sent from my BlackBerry® smartphone provided
by Airtel Nigeria. This sometimes is very embarrassing. Pls NLers how do I fling it off?!

why do you find the comment embarrassing?

no you can't use your 9700 to share internet with your other devices

Folks, can i still join the Playbook group? which PIN do you require, BB or PB pin?

they didnt really stop but you can only use it once

is this possible on ICS and JB OS?

retrieve the email password first the proceed to retrieving the twitter password. the process is the same

You need to remember the username you used in registering the twitter account and the email address attached to the account.

when you select the forgot password option, you input the email attached to the twitter account and a reset information will be sent to that email address

the airtel website still doesn't show the device as available.

it still asks you to pre-order

the answer to that is NO

mj: Buy your Blackberry Z10 from Nigeria's Largest Online Mobile Phone Mart, for just 120K. Parktelonline Pre-Order was 98K which the phones have been delivered to the customers.

i placed my pre-order as discussed and i'm yet to receive any communication on availability

Brainrex: ^^ And Galaxy s2,s3 I phone 5 users can't afford bb?

i use Samsung GS3, i have owned every generation of iPod since the second generation and currently own the iPad3. since the iPhone was released, i have never liked, will never like or use it. that doesn't mean i will go into a forum and use the features of the iPhone i don't like as an excuse to abuse people who use it. what they use is their choice and when push comes to shove, there's no one device that can give you everything you need not to talk of everything you want from a mobile device

The BB has always been my main device since the Storm 1 despite having other devices along side it because that's my choice.

but people who have not tried to use another platform go about abusing the people who use them when they are totally ignorant of what's happening there

yep, when all is lost and your device is dead, you can always flash the factory ROM back to the phone to go back to the basics and the try again

you can't go wrong with the android ecosystem for your needs as a student.

android is also economical for you. there are many variants of android and they are quite cheap

mr.drizzy:
so thats ur summary on ppl against the brand .CHILDISHNESS..#SMH#

what other conclusion can you draw on people who have never used a BB but hate on people who use BB?

what i have found is that most of the time, these people cannot afford a BB. their inferiority complex makes them feel people using BB are 'oppressing' them

or how else can you explain the dumb comments about BB and BB users on this and other threads in this forum and other forums on the web?

ibietela2: Leave that Guy. This is one of those guys that buy B.B with no BIS only to sleep with girls.

lol...if there are girls out there who sleep with guys just because he's holding a BB, then i guess you might want to get yourself a BB to get some action for yourself.

i sleep with classier girls. Girls who have their own expensive toys and don't see a BB as a status symbol but rather a necessary tool that helps them get things done

luluosas: Shut that your crappy mouth up if you don't have anything to say.

Bright De Gea: You plank, you are an illitrate, we're talking about truth and reality here and you are talking about girls and Tecno, don't agree that RIM is fucking you up?, then remain dead and buried you fool, if i hear you talk shit about Tecno again, you will regret ever joining nairaland

Loosers

rman: A lot of BB haters think by telling others they are wrong,will somehow, make them feel they made the smarter choice.

People should by phone that serves their daily needs and suits their pocket.

BB Z10 is not meant for everyone. If you can't afford it, stick with what you think is fair.

Coming online to call a company dead or rubbish because you can not afford their product is childish.

BB Z1O can be compared fairly with SGS3 and Iphone5 ( two great phones ).

We can all come online and rant but the reality on ground in Nigeria's phone market today is that BB is still the number one selling smart phone.

With the Z10 they will probably win back some of the customers that wanted a powerful tool which the old BB OS7 did not deliver. It is not everyone that intrested in BIS.

you have a good point.

most of the guys who come on threads like this to make noise about not using BBs are loosers who can't afford BBs. (the most annoying ones are the techno users ). i'm sure some of them could not get with some girls because those girls preferred guys who use or can afford BBs

just generally ignore them because they don't matter. Because some m0r0ns say BB is dead doesnt mean its dead
