Blackberry Data Plan $$

Does anyone know if there are any additional costs - in addition to the standard $39.99 for the data plan if I switch an old LG pretty basic phone to a BlackBerry Curve 8530 from eBay??

You would need to add the $30 2 GB data plan to activate the Blackberry on your account. 2 GB on the BB should be more than sufficient - I use less than 100 MB on mine. Have fun with your new BB!

Twitter & Facebook Dosnt work with my full blackberry data plan .. ?

Hi Guys,
I buy new Blackberry Curve 9360,
Facebook & twitter applications Dosn't work in my Device,
" you are currently on a service plan that does not support this application, please contact to wifi network or contact your service provider to upgrade your data plan" this message show up, I am using a full plan
How can these apps work with 3G & EDGE ?
they work with wifi but not on mobile network
Thanjs

If you BIS service status is "Not Connected", I certainly wouldn't be able to send you a PIN message.
I recommend you call your mobile provider and ask if your plan has been removed from your account or something, because it isn't working, and isn't connected.
YOU can try these things:
1) Register HRT:     (OS5) Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > Scoll to any line entry and > press the Menu key > and then click Register Now.
2) Resend Service Books:   KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Hopefully that will get things going again for you!

Keeping Z10 on Blackberry data plan (BIS) - APN settings?

I'm after a bit of help with regards to Blackberry data services.
I have had a few Blackberrys over the last 5 years or so and they have all had my unlimited data with them.
I recently got the Z10 to use on my existing contract with O2, however I have just had my first bill and I've been stung for data usage.
I've not had much luck with anyone helpful at O2 so I'm hoping somewhere here can help.
I am after knowing what the APN settings are I should put into my Z10 so thatI can continue to use my unlimited data plan from Blackberry rather than having to change my tariff with O2 to use one of their inferior plans.
I've spent hour searching for what to put into the APN settings but I'm just going round in circles

BB10 phones do not use BIS like legacy devices do. The days of compressed data on a BlackBerry are quickly coming to an end.
You'll just have to grab another data plan and grin and bear it like we do.

Blackberry Data Plan Options

Can I get a $10 data plan if I reactivate my blackberry or do I have to carry a $30 data plan?

Do you have the Social Messaging Ready Curve 9330? That is the only smartphone that can use the $10/75MB plan.

Do i need a Blackberry SIM (Data plan to get connected)

Hello, i have recently purchased a blackberry playbook 32GB.
i have below queries.
1. Do i need to have a BB data plan to get connected..even for the first time or may be later too.
2. Can a micro SIM with normal 2G or 3G data plan work on it say from AIRTEL or VODAFONE.
3. I tried connecting my Nokia E6 as a WIFI hotspot (using JOKU) , but playbook does not detect so..however it detects all other WIFI spots say from SAMSUNG phone.
4. Finaly i got connected with WIFI hotspot provided by SAMSUNG phone and was able to register. But that may not be always available with me. Thats where my second/third question is important.
5. After getting connected as in point 4, software upgrade was in process which was interupted owing to low internet speed. (being EDGE n/w). i am sure after S/W update i shall be able to use it for other purpose.
6. Even if i get a BLACKberry data plan micro SIM, will it work on NON BB smart phones?
7. I am new to BLACKBERRY, please help me.

My first guess is that you bought a former Sprint (US) Playbook, which might not be operable in India.
I just don't know. You might try to return it to your eBay seller and get your money back and purchase a known working device.
Does it connect to WiFi?

Unable to use my Blackberry Tour in the UK even WITH Global data plan

Hi,
I just flew into the UK and was disappointed to see that my phone service or data service is not enabled.
Prior to flying in(10-12 hours ago) I called Verizon customer service, and validated that I had a Global Blackberry Data Plan, and the customer service rep assured me that my phone will work without any issues once I get into the UK. So I didn't bother taking my "other" older AT&T phone(which I keep just in case) with me.
Now I'm stuck here for 3 weeks without any phone or data service! It's pretty crippling..and the best part is, I'll be charged as per my monthly plan regardless, when I get back.
Any help or suggestions?

I have provided some information below, that may be helpful in using your Blackberry Tour in the U.K.
After steps 1 and 2 below, if you are still receiving a red SOS symbol in the upper right hand corner of the device (your SIM card is either missing out of the device, or it has not been activated on the billing side).
**The steps below are assuming the SIM card and Global plan were already activated.
Step 1. – Ensure your device is set to Global or GSM (I have provided a link below on checking this setting)
http://search.vzw.com/?do=viewdoc&id=24732&p=null
***If it is on Global already, ensure the “Data Services” section are “ON” and select GSM as the Network Technology (3g and 2g is preferred)
***Please note*** you will need to switch it back to Global once you are back in the United States.
Step 2. Try power cycling the mobile network (I have provided a link below)
http://search.vzw.com/?do=viewdoc&id=24687&p=null
**leave the network off for 15-20 seconds and turn it back on.
Step 3. Try a soft reset - Remove the battery off of the device and leave it out for at least 2 minutes. Place the battery back in and wait for the device to fully boot up (it may take 2-5 minutes for the device to fully boot)
Lastly, if you are still getting the SOS symbol in red, you can check to see if your device has a SIM card by doing the following:
http://search.vzw.com/?do=viewdoc&id=30045&p=null
**Use the via device option (if it has an 893144***** number then your SIM card is in the device).
I hope this helps.

FB, Opera all work but will NOT d/l - NO DATA PLAN

I got this phone second hand and so far Facebook, Viigo and Opera Mini all connect to the internet - and I don't have a data plan. The prob is that as soon as I try to download something through Opera (such as Google apps), it reverts back to the BB browser and gives this error msg:
"Exceeded maximum redirect attempts to server: http//m.web2go.com/upsell/?msisdn=17132053775&cp=200"
I had to download Opera to the PC first, but many apps don't have that option. Obviously something was done before I got the phone, but since I have some internet access, I'm reluctant to try anything unknowingly.
PLEASE let me know if theres is any other information I can provide that can be helpful, I'm just listing a few things here at random that I assume would be of use.
--> When I go into my BB browser, a page comes up saying that I do not have web2go plan. The odd thing is that its lists several sites like Facebook ESPN and CNN to try to sell me a plan, but like I stated above, my FB app already works.
--> APN: gprsinternet (wap.voicestream.com works too)
APN username: t-mobile
APN password: ** (unknown - was already entered)
-->Default browser config: t-zones
Default MDS browser config: Explorador de Internet (don't ask)
Default WAP browser config: t-zones
-->Service Book has SEVERAL entries, here are some:
provisioning, WLM2.1, blackberry internet browsing service, BBFS2, WAP2, BBFS1, IPPP for BIBS, WAP2 BrowserConfig, WLM VPL, T-mobile USA WAP BrowserConfig
**Before everyone starts telling me to be careful about my internet usage and how I could end up with a huge bill, I just want to say thanks but I'm already aware. I have something called Blackberry Feature Enabler, and that allows for unlimited data usage, which I have already verified is working through my online account.

You must have a BlackBerry Data Plan to use the BlackBerry Facebook application.
Until now, your previous owners Service Book was on the device, and it has kept sending the notifications.
Do this on the device: Options > Security > Advanced > Menu key > Wipe Handheld and follow the prompts. This will clear your device of all the previous user's settings, messages, and data.

How to get email thru WiFi without a Bb Data Plan from Provider

Can a blackberry Torch 9800 be configured to connect to mail servers online and download email via wifi instead of getting it through the cellular connection. I am travelling and have SIM and WiFI but no Blackberry data plan from provider. So I want to use wifi to receive and send email.
Can this be done and how?
Thanks!

You both are correct.
You must have the BlackBerry data plan on your home account.
When you travel, you will roam on other mobile providers. Turn your wifi on when at a hotspot, and mobiile network > data services on. When off of wifi, ueen your data services off not to consume expensive roaming data.

Webmail without data plans

Just picked up a curve (aka 'learning curve' hehe) and I am having a hard time trying to configure for webmail . I do not have the 'configure internet email' option on the phone, only the enterprise server option. After reading way too many websites my impression is this function is controlled by the service provider. If you do not have BIS or some kind of BB data plan then you cannot use web based email thru the BB email function (you can check webmail thru a browser if you really want to be uber-frustrated). I found one post that alluded to this way back in 2009 or something. Can someone confirm this is still the case in 2013? This would save me and possible thousands of others looking for the same thing. If you have a data plan then this function would be available.
Let's hope 10 is way more user friendly!
Cheers.

Hi dimwit
Welcome to BlackBerry Support Forums
Still now if you want to use Personal Email Services you need a BlackBerry Data Plan / BIS on your account .Most application works over WIFI without an active BIS but a few like BBM, Email services require a BlackBerry Data Plan.

Just asking about data plan

oh i was just wondering because my phone wont register my data plan and it isnt on bes wel it was but i bought the phone from a friend and i remove the policy my self
So if you've removed the IT Policy (and you're absolutely sure you've removed it), that wouldn't be an issue now.
Go ahead and post ALL the details. When you try to register the device, what happens?
1. You do have THE BlackBerry Data Plan on your carrier account?
2. You have the personal email setup icon on your device?
3. What error or message are you getting when you try?

No data on BlackBerry 10 even with a working data plan

Hi,
Q10, unlocked, 10.1.0.4181, Estonian SIM card with a working data plan, correctly set APN, a bunch of restarts, etc - still no data connectivity. With WiFi on, data works, BBM works, everything except for the App World (which is n/a here) works.
Now. Where is the problem, and how do we solve it? I'm not going to be very keep on accepting answers like "lol you've just spent 650 EUR on a phone and a 10EUR/mo data plan with a 12 months contract which you can throw out of the window."
Thank you kindly for your answers and suggestions.

So, have you specifically asked your carrier about any of this, or are you operating purely on assumption? You see, it's entirely possible that your carrier has erroneously mis-provisioned something about your plan, and that's what is causing you to not have any services. It's also possible that you simply cannot have the services you desire on this carrier. But, as has been from the start here, only your carrier can answer these questions, for we have no visibility into anything beyond the words you provide us here -- and so far, all of those words indicate that you must have a discussion with your carrier, but for some reason you are refusing to do so...I really don't understand why you are so reluctant...
Good luck!

I am looking into Buying Retail a New Blackberry Q10. Doing this to avoid having to Give up my old Data Plan. Have read that when you activate a new Phone it forces you to pick a new Plan. Is this True? and How to I avoid this? 20 Year Verizon Client

I am looking into Buying Retail a New Blackberry Q10. Doing this to avoid having to Give up my old Data Plan. Have read that when you activate a new Phone it forces you to pick a new Plan. Is this True? and How to I avoid this? Any other advise in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
20 Year Plus Verizon Client

The only "unlimited" plan I can think of where this would not apply is the old Connect plan for multimedia/basic phones. That unlimited data, on devices such as the LG Voyager, EnvTouch, and other "multimedia" devices is not the same.
If you currently have an individual $29.99 unlimited data plan with a 3G Smartphone, then you can buy a BBQ10 retail and activate it with the same data plan and keep the unlimited.

Blackberry curve 9370 data plan

There was a recent data plan released for this smartphone and basic feature phones. is it required that you do need a data plan for the blackberry just like it is optional for the basic feature phones.
