walcolm: Etisalat bis doesn't work on BlackBerry 10 devices

You have to get the BlackBerry 10 plan. Check their site for the cost and data cap

Note that etisalat sim will run data on a pay as you go rate if you don't have or run out of a data plan so long as you have credit on your line
tnx boss ;(

Good day people.

1. I can't download music with a z10.

2. I also noticed that my incoming calls do not roam while I'm on the phone with another caller.

3. The notes I made in my previous BlackBerry are not showing in the z10. Does it have different format for notepad or z10 doesn't have it at all.

Help please.

walcolm:

it might correct itself or it might not....the device detects the time from your network to set your time but the flag shown most times is that of the country language you used at the time you set up the phone

i typically use US English to set up my phone so the US flag always shows in BBM but the time is WAT

You are wrong man, the flag is from your network carrier. If you are using MTN-NG, be sure to get a Nigeria flag.

It's 10.1.0.4189
Re: Blackberry 10 Devices Home: Z10, Q10 Etc by walcolm(m): 2:43pm On Dec 29, 2013
There's definitely a newer OS than that.

Yes you can download music, you're just not doing it right. To download music, rather than tap the link to the music file touch it and hold until some icons come out from the right hand side. One of them is to download

2. What you're talking about is call waiting. IT has nothing to do with the phone. You have to set up call waiting on the sim and it will work irrespective of the phone

3. Yes the memo app doesn't exist in bb10. It has been replaced by REMEMBER and for the early adopters of BlackBerry 10, we could not get the notes from bb7 to copy over to the remember app on bb10. If you're a new bb10 user and you used BlackBerry link to do your device switch, it's possible your notes are in that app

serty1: I travelled to the united states...and my Q10 updated my time to eastern time but to my surprise it's stil showing Nigeria flag @ d logo but showing the exact time in atlanta anybody who knows aw I can flip the 9ja logo tin off...thanks

Same thing is happening to my phone. I'm in Canada but my phone still shows Nigeria's flag. When I arrived at the airport it was Canada flag that was there, but I unfortunately off my location. When I put it on later it was Nigeria that came up but Canada 's time. Its been a month now I arrived here and it's still the same.

@Walcolm please is there a way to resolve this? Thanks in advance

And pls, the downloading. If I press it down, which of the icons is meant to download.

1. I've done that but all it gets out are copy, share and other options except download. I'm thinking it's my Os cos I've not updated it.

2. I guess I have to call the customer care for that. I've equally tried setting it myself but it doesn't have the call waiting options.

3. So sad BlackBerry didn't find a way to synchronize notepad to remember. I lost all my notes.

I haven't used Internet tethering on my device so can't really say, but mobile hotspot is a better option since it doesnt need a USB or you having to turn on your bluetooth. And yes it would work on your tablet as long as it's Wifi enabled (most of them are). My guess is if mobile hotspot works on glo bis, tethering should most probably work too

The download icon is the one that looks like a small chain with the 'good' sign. It's the second to the last on that row in descending order I think

Don't know about MTN but Glo bis works perfectly on bb10 devices.

Try zooming in the page a little, then press and hold again. The icons should come from the right side of the phone. The options you must be seeing are the ones that appear once you click on that download tab. Just try again

It does. Go to calls, swipe down the page from the top. You should see "settings" by the top right. Turn on your call waiting from there let's see.

Sorry about your notes

Do you really need a memory card for a phone that comes with 16GB inbuilt memory? smiley
Actually it doesn't but you can buy one as it has the slot

Thanks a lot Anitank.

I was able to reset the call waiting. I didn't know such setting was hidden at the top.

Unfortunately, I still couldn't locate the download button after I did all you told me. sad

Can z10 use Google Chrome as its official browser? I head they pull off from BlackBerry 07. Did they also pull off from BlackBerry 10?
Re: Blackberry 10 Devices Home: Z10, Q10 Etc by ruz(m): 1:46pm On Dec 30, 2013

Can you try posting a snap shot on here so we could see the exact problem you're having with your downloads?

By official do you mean default browser? I don't think Google Chrome browser can be used as a default browser on bb10 devices but it can be sideloaded and used as a normal browser. Walcom should be able to explain this to you better.

But then the native bb10 browser is super cool if you ask me

After reading comments here about mtn bis not working I decided to try it again yesterday with the daily plan and it works and today again I did another one and it is working. I can't do the one month plan cos mtn is slow in my villa but Glo and airtl are fast here cos its 3g respectively. So I will do the monthly by next week when I will be in lag or as a asaba. Will post screen shots
