BlackBerry App World requires that your device radio is turned on to continue.

I no longer have a service provider for my Blackberry.  But I want to use it for listenting to Audio Books.  Can I still do this without internet service on the phone itself?
Initially it appeared as though I could, so long as I had it connected to my computer which was connected to the internet.  Initially, System Check told me that the AppWorld Browser plug-in was installed on the computer, and also that the device was connected to the computer.  It then locked up when trying to load the latest version of AppWorld on the Smartphone.  I've rebooted both since and now it tells me that I need the radio on to perform this task.  ANy ideas?

Hello mtyler,

    Is there anybody that can help me, please!!!

    Hello !
    Try connecting to App world after connecting your device to WiFi.
    Or else,
    There is an alternative for your problem to resolve.
    What you do is connect your BlackBerry Smartphone with USB cable to Internet enabled desktop/laptop.
    Go to the link mentioned below:
    http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/
    On top right  of the page there is a option "Sign In".
    Login with your BlackBerry ID and password.
    From here you can download all as you do it for Appworld.
    Hope this resolves your Problem!

  • App World issues. "having trouble connecting to BlackBerry App world Server" and "installation issue"

    Hey.... I hope this isn't just repeating the 'same old' issue, but I have read through everything I could find and I am still having no luck.
    Anyways I am having a few issues.....
    ONE/// When I try to go to "My World" on my Playbook it always comes up with the message:
    BlackBerry App World is having trouble connecting to the Blackberry App World Server,  Verify your network connections and try again.
    One solution I read was to connect to an alternative WiFi connection, however I haven't got any other connection I can connect to before switching back to my own.... help?!
    TWO// There are also two games I have been desperately trying to install but have had no luck.  Each time all I get is the following message:
    Install Error. There was a problem during Installation.  Please try again.
    I have read the KB26671 file, and tried to follow the 'resolution' there but whenever I log in I never get any 'account set up process' to continue with..... let alone what the rest of the guide says to do.
    THREE// Not sure why but when I try to use AppWorld on my PC it won't show me my playbook device, simply says "please connect your device".... help?  According to my playbook it is connected to computer, and my PC is picking up the Playbook as the manager always tells me it is there and lets me view the files but still AppWorld can't seem to see it.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Well I was just trying to see if it was your network connection. I have found that lately anyhow, the connection to the App World hasn't been that reliable - not sure why and it's just been recently for me. But I have downloaded some pretty large files in the last few days too without issue.
    Sorry, this isn't much help but if you find your network connection is becoming flaky, remove the profile and setup a new one. Sometimes I find I have to briefly shut off my internet connection on the PlayBook and then re-enable it when it's acting up. Then things are fine afterwards. A device reboot may help but it may not. I wish I could be more help but this gremlin sounds elusive.
    Actually, duh, why didn't I put two and two together eariler? See if this thread is applicable to you or not: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-PlayBook/PlayBook-not-letting-me-update-apps/td-p/...
    In short, reboot your PlayBook and try again...

    I hate this bold 9700 series 2 no carrier and find it to be a pathetic product backed up by even more pathetic support so I have decided to use it as a torch. There is an app for this but it requires app world first. Are you trying to say that I MUST have a carrier and they will resolve this issue but otherwise RIM cannot do anything about their own product?
    Hello and Welcome to the Forums!
    We are so sorry that you are having so many difficulties. While many experience the same (a search here will reveal that fact), there are also many who have very positive experiences with their BB. Not every device is suitable for everyone -- which IMHO is why there are so many choices.
    In addition, but for AppWorld, front line support for BB's is, by contract, not provided by RIM. The carriers and authorized resellers are responsible for front line formal support to end users. It is possible to bypass your carrier and seek assistance direct from RIM, but such involves fees since you are bypassing your support agreement with your carrier. The "Support and Services" tab toward the top of these forum pages provide information about that. But, if you do go through your carrier for support, they can escalate into RIM at no fee to you if they so choose to.
    As to AppWorld Support (beyond what we volunteer to provide in these forums), that is available via this portal:
    https://www.blackberry.com/CSOHelp/index.do?ft=generic
    If you choose to submit to them in this manner, then please use, in the "Please select a component:" field, the AppWorld Billing/Payment selection. Any other selection will simply route you back anonymously to these public forums.
    As to your question, RIM and the carriers both participate in AppWorld. My suspicion is that the carriers get a portion of the costs for the apps that are vended via AppWorld -- but that's just my suspicion. Hence, the use of AppWorld indeed requires a carrier (and, indeed, the proper data plan level from them).
    But, AppWorld is merely a portal, vending apps that are (for the most part) developed by others. As such, it is not the only portal in the world for BB apps. There are a few, I think, apps that are exclusively vended via AppWorld...but I think that number is rather small. Consequently, if you desire an app that will allow your BB to function as you desire, you should seek out alternative vending portals. There are plenty.
    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry App World says I don't meet requirements.

    I tried to go to the BlackBerry App World page and download it.  It said my phone doesn't meet the requirements but I have checked and it does.  Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

    Try accessing it on your phone's browser using the following address: http://mobile.blackberry.com.
    It should show up under the What's New section and should be the first item on the list.  This is where I accessed mine from and had no problems.  The actual address for the download is http://mobileapps.blackberry.com/awclient/download.shtml?code=appworld&CPID=MBC_WHATSNEW
    I hope that works for you!

  • Blackberry App world is not currently available in your country

    'Blackberry App world is not currently available in your country, Please check blackberry.com/appworld for updates.' - Whenever I try to access to blackberry app world I get a pop-up saying what I have written previous. I am from the United Kingdom and have been using App World previously, the last time I used it was about an hour ago so it is only a recent problem. I have updated to the latest software not too long ago, I have reinstalled App world and still no joy.
    I was wondering if anyone could enlighten me as to what is happening?
    Thanks in Advance,

    Do you have a SIM card in the device (some Verizon devices do come with one inserted, and in the past that might have been the cause of the device being recognized as NOT from the appropriate carrier.
    Remove the SIM card if you do have one (for Verizon, the SIM does nothing for you anyway as long as you are not traveling internationally).

  • Signing in to BlackBerry Apps World

    I am having a very difficult time signing in to the BlackBerry Apps World.  I have forgotten my password and also the answer to my security question is not been accepted.  I am getting very frustrated because the sign in locks me out for 15 minutes each time I try to make a guess.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Start first with these please:
    KB28685 How to reset the BlackBerry ID password using the password recovery question
    KB32111 "The link is no longer valid." is encountered when attempting to reset a BlackBerry ID password
    KB26361 How to change or reset the BlackBerry ID password
    KB28111 Unable to reset BlackBerry ID password when using a BlackBerry hosted email address
    KB28232 BlackBerry ID reset email is not being delivered to the associated mailbox
    If you have forgotten your BB ID credentials AND have non-BB access (e.g., Outlook, webmail, etc.) to the email account that is currently configured to your BB ID account, then those instructions should allow you to recover access to your BB ID account.
    However, if you do not have access to that email account, then your challenge is much greater, and you have a choice to make depending on your circumstances:
    If you have no AppWorld records that you require to retain (e.g., purchase records for apps), then simply abandon the BB ID and create a new one. To do so, however, does require a device WIPE:
    KB26694 How to change the BlackBerry ID on a BlackBerry PlayBook tablet or BlackBerry smartphone
    But, if you do have AppWorld records that you must keep, then you require human intervention. To receive that, you must ring up your mobile service provider and convince them to escalate your case up to BlackBerry. Further, you must convince BlackBerry to provide you with a solution -- which likely will either be resetting your current BB ID so that you can again access it or having you create a new BBID and they will manually move your purchase records over. Note that I have no idea if they will be willing to do this, but there is no other way that I know of to retain your prior AppWorld purchase records.
    Good luck!

  • BB Pearl 8130 "access not allowed!" when trying to download Blackberry App World

    Hi, well I am trying to download blackberry app world onto my blackberry pearl 8130 and whenever I try to download it it goes through the language prompts but then goes to a page with "access not allowed" My device software is v4.5, I am currently in Canada, I have the data plan, I can use the internet browser and my carrier is Telus. All help is appreciated, please and thank you!

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    "Access Not Allowed"? Is that the precise and exact message? If not, please do provide the precise message.
    Please check this page to ensure you meet the minimum requirements (including if it is available in your country):
    http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/appworld/download.jsp
    If it is available in your country and you feel you meet the device-level system requirements, then contact your carrier to ensure that you meet the service plan (from them) requirements for access (via their network) to AppWorld. Generic data plans, even unlimited, are usually not sufficient...a specific BB data plan is normally required.
    Lastly, do be aware that AppWorld is merely a portal, vending apps developed mainly by others. As such, it is not your exclusive procurement source -- there are others that you can try (e.g., Handango, Handmark, BPlay, GetJAR or Mobihand). I have found that there are very few apps that are exclusive to AppWorld. You can search the on-line catalog and then search out other procurement sources, including quite often the developer website itself.
    Good luck!
