Blackberry 10 OS software update

My blackberry Z10 is currently running on 10.0.9.348. And I'm trying to install whatsapp which requires at least 10.0.10 or higher. The problem is I cannot update the software and everytime I check for software updates I get a massage saying that I have the latest software.
What should I do to update the software?
Thanks.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Each carrier controls the updates for their users...yours simply has not updated yet. There are tricks to attempt to force it, but they come with the usual cautions -- some reports exist of users doing this "force" and rendering their BB inoperable on their home carrier network (radio file changes and such, that are not compatible). But, if you wish to make the attempt, here are the tricks:

Blackberry Q10 latest software update issues

I updated the software on my blackberry q10 2 weeks ago and I've been having a lot of issues every other day my email accounts are saying passwords have been changed and it now saying I have too many accounts and this is confusing since I had all these accounts added before the update

I already tried to do a wipe & restore. Now I am sitting here with no access to any of my contact information or backed up data because as soon as it does the mandatory reboot it deletes everything again... going crazy is an understatement for how I feel right now. This is my work phone & not being able to access any of my contacts or calendar is ridiculously frustrating.

I have just installed the latest upgrade, and since then, my Z10 randomly switches itself off and on.
it does when idle and when in the middle of using it, not very convenient!
Has anyone else had the same issue?
Please check and sort asap Blackberry.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Hopefully you got this resolved already...but just in case...
Sadly, from "not working", it's very difficult to know exactly what is going on. From the rest of what you say, I am guessing that it is "stuck" and not proceeding beyond some point. However, knowing what point it is stuck at is rather critical to choosing which remedy to attempt. For example, if it's stuck in the backup stage, then there should be no harm since that's a "read only" function from the BB to the computer. But, if it's stuck in the update stage, then things would be difference since it's indeed also writing to the BB. Sometimes, it's just a matter of waiting long enough...there are folks posting here who have said that they left it overnight and it completed. There are others for whom no amount of time was long enough.
Anyway, if you are still stuck with this situation, then please provide more details so that we can give you some useful guidance.
Good luck and let us know!

Blackberry Bold 9900 OS software update from version 7.0.0 to version 7.1.0

Helo Everyone
I tried to upgrade my Blackberry Bold 9900 device software from version 7.0.0 to version 7.1.0 but having difficulties. I tried using the Blackberry Desktop Manager but there was no version 7.1.0 listed among the available updates. Even when I tried to do it directly via the Blackberry official website, Version 7.1.0 was also not listed. Finally I tried to do the update with my phone directly by accessing: Options>Device>Software Updates.
It displayed my Current Version of 7.0.0 Bundle 2406 and an available version 7.1.0 Bundle 1149. But when I Clicked Perform Update to download the new version it showed preparing to download but then displayed an error message such as "The download cannot continue because your device cannot connect to the update server using any of the following methods:Wi-Fi".
Meanwhile, I did not perform the upgrade with Wi-Fi because I have an active blackberry data subscrip of 2GB from my mobile network provider.
Please I need help on how to perform the upgrade from version 7.0.0 to version 7.1.0 with the latest Bundle.
Thank you all as i await your kind solution.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
The simplest way is to, on a PC (you cannot do this on MAC):
1) Make sure you have a current and complete backup of your BB...you can find complete instructions via the link in my auto-sig below.
2) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
3) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop.html
4) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
It is sorted first by carrier -- so if all you want are the OS levels your carrier supports, your search will be quick. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To truly seek out the most up-to-date OS package for your BB, you must dig through and find all carriers that support your specific model BB, and then compare the OS levels that they support.
5) Delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
6a) For changing your installed BB OS level (upgrade or downgrade), you can launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC.
6b) Or, for reloading your currently installed BB OS level as well as for changing it, bypass the Desktop Software and use LOADER.EXE directly, by proceeding to step 2 in this process:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC.
If, during the processes of 6a or 6b, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

Software update by blackberry link in windows 8

Can anyone help me to sort out the software updates for my Z10 using blackberry link installed in my laptop with windows 8?
I cannot see the 'install updates' link ......!!

With your Z10 connected to the PC, and running Link, do you see the Z10 connected in the bottom of the window (it should show as a tab at the bottom of the Link window)?
If so, then at the upper right, click on the gear icon for Settings. You should see the RELOAD OS functions in the screen now.

If BlackBerry Desktop Software is not recognizing your phone, you're really out of luck; it's imperative that BDS connects to your phone.
RIM has this to say about getting your phone to connect to BDS:

Shazam tags erased after BlackBerry software update

Hi there,
I find it really frustrating that all of my Shazam tags get erased when I follow through with a mandatory software update. Why/how is one connected to the other? Is this a problem with the BB Desktop softare, the app itself?

They cannot, that I know of.

Will a software update erase everything off my BlackBerry Curve?

My Blackberry Desktop manager says that I can update my 5.0 software to the 6.0 software, but I'm worried if it will erase everything off my phone like my BBM contacts, pictures, music and everything else?

Hello Makenna,
During the software update the BlackBerry® Desktop Software provides a option to Backup the BlackBerry® smartphone.
You can also backup the BlackBerry® smartphone by following the steps shown here:

V5.0 software update for Blackberry Curve 8530

I updated my virgin mobile blackberry curve 8530 to the v5.0 software update , but the sms text DOES NOT look anything like the BBM chat. It hasn't changed at all from the last version . That's the whole reason why I updated it. Please help . Thank you .

That's one way to do it... you could also do it Over The Air (Options - Advanced - Wireless Update) or you could download the file and install the update via Desktop Manager. One word of caution though... personally I recommend the OS 5.0 .459 update not the .654... There are many posts on many forums detailing why people have issues with .654 (I'm one of them and I downgraded from .654 to .459). Of note, loss of the manual standy feature and changing the keyboard lock methods, and the trade-off of battery life over reception.

How To sign up to Receive notifications for BlackBerry Device Software updates ?

Hi All,
Happy new year to all.
CAn you help me to How To sign up to Receive notifications for BlackBerry Device Software updates for my devices. ?
Device model : Q5 device
DEvice OS : BB 10

You will receive a notification with your device, you can also check for updates in Settings.

Incompatibility between company enterprise server/software (non BB) and blackberry software updates.

My phone is connected to our company enterprise server and works fine until the blackberry software updates. When ever a blackberry software update occurs, the operating system on the phone crashes, (icons shrink down, not all icons are present, phone does not display or operate correctly). I am on my 5th phone, the only way to correct the situation is to get another phone. Is there some way I can turn off the blackberry updates on my phone???

for email on a BlackBerry device, you have the following options :
BES. It's the Rolls Royce. You have to pay the price for it (a BES server, as well as admins, OR use a private BES service)
BIS. It's the one for regular people. You can't deal with folders, but it's free and works on any email address using POP3 or IMAP
BIS over Outlook Web Access. It's like BIS but through the webmail Outlook Web Access. Depending on the version of Outlook Web Access, it is or not possible for you to connect to it
webmails
a dedicated email application, like GMail for BlackBerry
BlackBerry Unite -> check the documentation on the website about that. Basically, it's like a tiny BES.
Watch out, unlike Windows Mobile devices, there are no true IMAP clients available on the BlackBerry devices (you can use BIS over IMAP but without folders for example).
