8830 connectivity in Japan with CDMA

Hello,
I want to purchase the 8830 with CDMA and wonder if this smartphone does also work in Japan, calls and data,
furthermore I need to buy the phone in Canada without a contract as the 8830 is not available in Germany!
Is there any difference between the sofware from the 8820 which is available in Germany tothe 8830?
Would be nice to here some experiences.

you can use this site to compare models:  http://na.blackberry.com/eng/devices/compare/
As to the coverage in Japan, that is more a direct factor of the carrier you choose and what roaming agreements they have.  The two main suppliers of the 8830 in Canada are Telus and Bell.  I checked the Telus coverage maps (http://www.telusmobility.com/ab/coverage/global_roaming_maps.shtml#j) , they showed Japan on the map as CDMA, but did not actually list it in their table of supported countries.  Bell Canada showed it as GSM (http://www.bell.ca/support/PrsCSrvWls_Cvg_Travel.page?tab=2# ) and only listed support for voice calls. 
Make sure you confirm with the carrier you plan to use that they will support the 8830 and that they have roaming agreements with Japanese telecoms.

  • How to connect Desktop Software with BES ?

    Hi,
     I have installed latest BB Desktop Software on a system other than BES (4.1.6). Also installed BB simulator 4.2.2 (8830) on same system. I connected the Simulator to Desktop software successfully using USB, but can't connect it with BES server (installed on separate system) .
    Please tell me how to connect Desktop software with BES ?

  • Does ipad 4 A1460 work with CDMA ?

    Hi
    I have unlocked ipad 4 from saudi arabia model
    A1460 on the iPad (4th generation) Wi-Fi + Cellular (MM)
    Now I'm In yemen i have few question
    does ipad 4 A1460 work with CDMA network in yemen (YEMENMOBILE) ?
    if it work can i switch b/w CDMA and GSM when i move b/w Yemen and Saudi ?
    can i buy cdma data plan +sim card and install it in ipad ? or there is other way ?

    The A1460 model is infact CDMA capable.

    Probably not.  CDMA unlike GSM is not unlockable. The Settings for CDMA networks must be provisioned into the CDMA chip at the time of manufacturing, and its very difficult to modify this after the fact.  Also CDMA devices must be registered with the carrier they will be assigned to.  They must exist in the carrier's database beforehand.

    If the Yemen provider issues you a Sim card, you can insert that into the GSM sim card slot on the iPad and connect to their network that way, again if they support it.   This would not be CDMA but GSM.

    No such thng as a CDMA sim card. sim cards are only for GSM.   Again if the Yemen carrier offers sim cards to connect to their network you can insert it into the sim card slot and use their service that way if they support it as such.
    I suggest you contact the Yemen carrier and ask about their device policies. BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) is not normally  an accepted policy with CDMA carriers.

  • Satellite L500-13e connected to TV with HDMI cable - no sound on TV

    Hi! Sorry my English is bad.
    I have a problem, i tried to connect my notebook with TV through HDMI, but
    sound playing on notebook rather than TV ...
    In Realtek HD Manager i didn't find "HDMI Output options"
    Please, suggest what should I do?

    The whole story is a little bit strange now.
    As far as I know Satellite L500-13E is delivered with preinstalled Vista Home Premium and all drivers must be preinstalled.
    I don't understand how you can suddenly have this yellow question mark in device manager.
    What have you done with your notebook?
    Anyway, at first try to remove sound device from device manager and restart your notebook. If the yellow question mark is still there install Vista sound driver. You can find it on Toshiba download page - http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com

    How to connect Apple TV with iPad ?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
    When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices.

    The problem is not the router.. the issue is the vpn has put your computer in a different IP range with a different gateway. When you turn off the vpn the computer returns to local lan and can print.
    Some vpn software allows you to set gateway to use local net instead of remote gateway or access to other webistes or local lan.
    Read up the issue.

    Cisco vpn client..
    https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/239113
    I did not search much.. just grabbed the first article I could find that explains the issue.
    The whole point of the vpn is whilst it is connected your computer is NOT part of the Local Lan .. it is part of the Remote LAN via the vpn tunnel.
    It is also a security risk using split tunnelling so often it will not be allowed.
    Plug the printer directly into the computer via usb or whatever.. Local connection will work.. not local lan.
