TCD: hmm, not a twitter user but there's this twitter app called blackbird on playbook. Looked decent when I tried it, prolly better than ubersocial.

you could also try blaq, lemma or tweetdeck. Blaq is the one I use the most tho.

TCD: ^^ I experience that occasionally, wonder what's up with that.

it really is annoying especially when am downloading And it just disconnects.

Hello everyone, my blackberry bridge sometimes disconnects while am using it. I just wanted to ask if anyone is experiencing the same problem

TCD: Sorry my brother, I know how you feel. Its frustrating. Luckily Blackberry is doing away with this compulsory update with the new OS2.1.

Like spoilerx has adviced above try another network, but this one MTN don increase their 3Gb to 7K, maybe looking to airtel and others, with good 3G service in your area will be best.

Btw, airtel 1200 BIS can be used as Mobile hotspot, but they only give 1GB. Once used it for my OS reload.

i updated mine with the 1gb plan for 3500 from MTN, maybe you should try that and it didn't take up to an hour.

Does anyone use a torrent apply on their pb?

Lexusgs430:

No back- up required. But no physical change can be noted, there is also rumour of excessive battery drain from update. What we need from RIM, is the 2.1 update. Not this rubbish maintenance update!!!

yeah I read about the problem with the battery on crackberry forum, I just hope they fix it b4 releasing 2.1.

Good evening guys, if I want to upgrade to the new os that was just released do I need to do any backup and how would I go about that?

@TCD, I couldn't find the link u posted, but I was able to download a cracked version from google and its working fine. Thanks

TCD: " no sharable device", "sharing mode", these are all strange to me. There is nothing like these in my connectify even when I have nothing. Wonder which you're using. There's a link to the cracked version of connectify I posted here sometime ago. Download that instead.

let me go search for that one. Thanks

TCD: dont understand this. There is no place in connectify where you select "device".

Sorry, I meant to select device to share over. Its under advanced settings and its currently showing no sharable device present, while the sharing mode is just empty. What can I do about this please?

I've also tried using virtual router manage but it won't connect because I can't fill in the space for shared connection. Please how can I do this?

@TCd, I tried to use that connectify-me app to connect my pb to my laptop using wifi, downloaded it but I am unable to use it. The place where am to select a device is empty. Please what do I do

Ferdinard007:
But I can tether d pb with BIS?
I mean can I subscribe 2 d BIS on d nokia and still tether it? Will it use d BIS sinse its not bb?

lol, bis is for blackberry phones only. Just go and get a blackberry phone and enjoy your pb.

TCD: i have never experienced this before, don't get what could be wrong. Have you tried a hard reset? Since reloading the OS worked last time give it a try again.

is there any other applications that can I can use in place of the file and folders, couldn't find the new version to sideload.

TCD: no i dont. The link i had expired weeks ago. Try searching for it on google.

alright, thanks alot

TCD: not sure why you're having that issue, if you have ruled out inadequate memory issues as the cause, then maybe you should download the latest version 4.1.2 as that has better bridge support.

please do you have a link i could use in downloading that, cos I got this one from the link you posted.

@TCD, I sideloaded that files and folder app on my playbook, but have been tryng to transfer a file from my playbook to my blackberry, when I cut or copy from the pb and paste on my phone it shows an error message(error #0 or #3000). The message doesn't come up if am transfering from my phone to the pb tho, please what can I do?

TCD: I meant blackberry phone not tablet. Transfer the file to your phone then rename it with the bb file manager. If you want to be able to do same on your tablet, download and sideload the App files and folders.

thanks

TCD: rename the 9mm from .zip to .bar. Do that with the file manager on your blackberry, not windows explorer.

can't find any ohter files on my filenmanager except from music,videos,pictures and documents. How do I then go about renaming it.

TCD: if you downloaded the version 2 from the specific link i gave for 9mm, you shouldnt have this problem. Its the version 1 that has an auto save bug.

I'll download that one now, thanks.

Lacomb:

Where is the shop? can i get the address please?

I got it from a store in waRri. If you're not in warri address won't be useful to you

@TCD, that 9mm game does it not save, played it several times and completed about the first two levels, but everytime I close it I have to start all over again?

L acomb: Please, where did u buy the screen protector and how much is it?

Got mine from a shop where they sell phones and it cost me just 1k.

Lexusgs430:

I use a screen protector on my pb, it generally protects the screen from scratches and grazes. The protector does not affect the sensitivity of the screen.

thanks, will be getting one then.

I was thinking of getting a screen protector for my ph, do you guys use it for your pbs and would you advise me together to get one.

TCD: Efewoha, remember you were getting the 9320 from UK, how's the battery life of the device so far?

the battery life of the 9320 is Very Good! Its way better than the batteries of the other bb phones I have used.

TCD: yes it does, I just keep pressing till it downloads. Or better still, use your blackberry phone browser doesn't do that.

downloaded that 9mm game when I tried sideloading I was told file is not a zip file. What does that mean please

TCD: .http://minus.com/l33bn7tLTaUN1

thanks alot, my PlayBook would empty without you. When I click on download the Page keeps refreshing, does that happening to you?

TCD: so thats The koko up there, Hope this helps someone. if you have any question aboutwhat I wrote above, ask away and I shall answer thee. download apps, games and enjoy your device dont let it lie idle.

Do you know that if you press the two volume buttons on the top of the PB together It takes a screenshot of your screen? just discovered that by accident yesterday. Lemme give you guys some shots from my end

please do you have a link to download that Lara croft game.

@TCD there was this game u posted a pic of.. Can you please give me a link to download it. I downloaded Modern Combat 2 Black Pegasus from app world, really enjoying it y'all should go download it.

TCD: not normal, restart ur laptop after installing do JRE. Things to check, make sure devt mode is enabled and the IP you see in the devt mode page corresponds with the IP displayed on ddpb. And ofcourse your password should be entered correctly.

It has worked, thanks a lot. The link u posted to get games is not working, can we get another one please.

TCD: you're supposed to download the latest Java runtime environment (JRE) and install for ddpb to work. I stated it there. Did you download it?

yeah I have done that, waiting for the DDPB to connect, its been tryng to connect for over 15mins now is that normal?
