TCD: @alstacs . I'm getting a playbook soon. I would assume There is no difference between the bridging experience and the others like galaxy tab et all. The only thing that should make any difference is the Network providers 3G or EDGE. this will also affect the galaxy tab.. @TCD I am still waiting for your comment on bridging with edge rather than 3G. Is it worth it? I really envy guys here. Everybody has moved on. People are side loading now etc..and I am still here wondering if I should buy one or not. |

alstacs:I tried MTN edge and it was okay. But I hope you don't plan on doing heavy downloads with MTN edge, coz MTN edge is notoriously slow. I suggest you try etisalat or airtel their edge is better. 1 Like |

police27: Does the bb bridge internet work with mtn BBcomplete plan of 1500? My pb is just a few days away :-) It should work regardless of subscription package or level. Have fun with your pb when it arrives. Make sure you update it to OS 2.0, the current pb software version is 2.0.1.358, updates can only be done via wifi or mifi |

I am having difficulty in bridging my What difficulties are you experiencing in bridging? Bridging can be achieved in two ways, either you scan device or by manually inputting pins on prompt. You will need to download an application called blackberry bridge from the app world free unto your BB phone first, before pairing can be achieved. |

Re: Blackberry Playbook: Anyone? by 2010a: 3:00pm On Jun 02, 2012 |
TCD: METHOD NUMBER 2 oga TCD, I bought my playbook on may 1st & guy, no other device has given me so much misery as this one. i have not been able to use it at all. i haven't been able to download the os2. whenever i try, it will tell me: could not connect to update server(2011). this baffles me because i have been using this same Internet connection to browse and download on my laptop. i tried the method you above; my Blackberry Download Manager didn't show the options you described: retry, update or cancel. my BDM was installed the 1st time i connected the playbook to my pc. i don't know what is wrong. as i vented on BB's South Africa page: ;tis shocking and beyond belief that despite the popularity of BB in Nigeria, they have neither an office nor a representative in this country who i could talk to. if they keep dulling, Samsung will fall their hand in the tablet market in Nigeria, especially with their galaxy tab 7.0 plus. oga TCD, please help me out. tis been a long time i have felt so frustrated. |
Re: Blackberry Playbook: Anyone? by TCD: 9:28pm On Jun 02, 2012 |
Sorry about your issues my man. May 1st, that's almost a month of frustration. I feel your pain mehn To your problem, what did desktop manager tell you when u tried method nobr 2? Also how did you get the failed to find the update server error? Is it when u tried to update via wifi? Have you also tried method nobr 1? Does your playbook begin to download the update before you get that error message or it doesn't even download at all. What kind of Internet connection do you have, is it fast and stable? Please give answers to this questions so we can get an idea of what's really going on. |
Re: Blackberry Playbook: Anyone? by TCD: 9:36pm On Jun 02, 2012 |
As regards the blackberry desktop manager thing, you have to be very fast. It can take quite a few tries before you get it. Just follow these steps sequentially download latest BB desktop manager hold down power button until 'turn off' / 'restart' buttons appear--choose turn off' I.e turn off your playbook open desk top manager (it will ask you to connect to your device' via usb cable connect your playbook to desktop) DO NOT LET playbook turn itself on when connected (hold down power button when a red power light appear on it) You will get error message on BB desktop manager ' can not connect to device; with an option to 'update' This message takes a few tries to get and doesnt stay for long so you need to be quick choose 'update' on this error message pop up window it will update via BB desktop manager Goodluck 1 Like |

Re: Blackberry Playbook: Anyone? by TCD: 8:29am On Jun 03, 2012 |
2010a:I think here is the problem. Desktop manager must tell you something. Its either it connects to the PB,(which means you aren't doing it fast enough or well) Or it shows the can't connect to the Playbook window (which is what we are after). You can try using another laptop or internet connection. There have been suggestions that the update server2011 error is due to outdated routers. |
