Blackberry Z10 will work on GPRS?

I'm going to use Z10. For first set-up & registering Blackberry ID, Wi-fi connection sufficient or does it require Blackberry internet service? Also for using apps like facebook, app world, youtube etc., does gprs connection sufficient?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
BB10 devices no longer use BIS, so no it is not required. Standard data plans are normally quite adequate to use BB10 devices for all BB-proprietary services, including all that you listed. Your specific situation may vary depending on your specific carrier and their plans, so you really would need to talk to them to be certain.
Good luck!

Blackberry z10 will not post yearly recurring appointment

I know this may sound like a Blackberry issue but bear with me. We are using Novell Data Synchronizer with z10 Blackberry to Groupwise 8. When a user attempts to create a yearly recurring appointment on the z10, the first appointment appears on the z10 calendar and then about 15 seconds later disappears. All future yearly appointments remain visable, but the first appointment in the series is disappearing. Weekly-daily recurring appointments work fine. The local calendar on the z10 works fine. It appears to me that there is a faulty algorithm with the syncing of the yearly appointments. Blackberry recommended a security wipe which does not correct the problem. The only way to circumvent the problem is to create the yearly recurring appointment and start it with a date exactly one year in the past. The reason I suspect the Novell sync is due to the local calendar working, and the initial appointment shows on the z10 but then disappears after the synchronization with Novell. I may be missing a setting with Groupwise or Novell. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Absolutely new smartphone user, a senior, new owner of BlackBerry Z10, will have questions a little later

I am a brand new user of a smartphone and of a BlackBerry, a Z10 from Bell, I will provide the model number as required when I have a specific question. I am 2 days into this, still getting the "gesture" thing down pat, I am not too good at it but the Bell rep showed me. Not a swipe off-the-table toss-away motion. There seem to be some screen pages which don't gesture to the small box size at all, as far as I can tell, while some do, when they can be X'd off... but they seem to go away once the main icon screen is in place for a bit...
I have a message for the BlackBerry company, and that is, please add some info on your User Guides and How-To pages on the Web [all this is being written on my laptop, I gave the Z10 a rest] for THE SMARTPHONE BEGINNER. They generally speak to former BlackBerry owners of older models or those who know smarphones and not the person like me who has to learn to "gesture" and to tap and "hover", etc... It's covered too quickly and too un-clearly in the videos and demos you have online.
I am afraid it might cause frustration on the part of new users... anyway, I am persevering.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Please do persevere.
I have to admit that the Z10, as great a phone as it is, is not a beginner's phone. Even I, with years of BlackBerry experience, took a while to adapt to it. Once you get the hang of it, you'll see that it's the best smartphone you can buy. Until that time arrives, I hope you'll hang in there and give it a chance.
Cheers.

Blackberry Z10 will no longer Sync and Sympatico Contacts and calendar have disappeared

Two weeks ago my sympatico email stopped on my blackberry. The email was uninstalled and reinstalled and the contacts and calendar disappeared and the phone stopped synconizing . When the email is loaded on another Z10 the contacts and calendar come in. The issue appears to have happened after an update.Restoring the phone to factory settings did not help. I can get all other emails to load including contacts and email. Does anyone have a solution other than getting rid of this phone.
Sympatico does not appear to be an issue as I can load the email on other blackberry devices and have loaded it on another Z10 with no issue.
I have made called to Blackberry and they keep pushing me back to Bell but based on the tests above it seems to be a Blackberry issue not sure how to resolve and frustrated.

Two thoughts.
When you did the factory reset the wise thing to have done would be add the email and test before restoring and reinstalling apps. If the problem is corrupt settings or data, you might end up restoring the problem. Testing beforehand gives you an whether or not the stock software install is ok.
If you didn't test with clean device, I would do a security wipe or repeat the reset to factory and test.
If you did test on clean device, then I would do a clean OS install, and test.
In my opinion the issue is software, one way or the other. You may want to go straight to clean OS install.

In order to resolve this issue I tried to include the computer domain name, the Blackberry computer name both did not work.
What should be included in the logon to workstation in order to active the Blackberry user account?
I appreciate your support.

Blackberry Z10 Enterprise Support

Hi,
In our company currently most people use blackberry 9900 or other with OS7. We wanted to upgrade to Blackberry Z10, however for some reason being told the current BB servers they have don't support the BB10. I am very skeptical to this being the case as don't the person is well knowledged. Could you please check or confirm that BB10 will work with the same servers that support BB7 or OS7. Thanks.

Z10 will work on BES 10 whcih is free but you have to pay for BDS CALs at about 100 USD
It needs to be on a separate server than current BES 5.x or older.
Also you can convert current CALs to BDS CALs for free.

BlackBerry Z10 camera not working....

Hi, I just bought a new BlackBerry Z10 mobile 2 months back,.. but suddenly the camera stopped working.... When ever i open the camera, there's a message displayed as " The Camera can't be started ". Can some one help me out of this...

Sorry it's against the forum guidelines, it's pretty clear if you search the forums from the site I mentioned.
Previous attempts to do so have quickly been removed.
I will mention that it possibly invalidates your warranty doing this and definitely does if you install a leaked OS in its entirety.

How to setup my blackberry torch to my mobile internet network will work

My mobile network has an APN, Proxy #, and a Port #, however I do not know how to find the settings on my torch so the internet will work. Does anyone know how to help me?
thank you

You need a specific blackberry data plan in order to use data functions on your blackberry, once this data plan is in place the settings will be pushed to your phone in the form of service books so you do not need to configure them yourself.

Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync not working in Mobile Network – Blackberry Z10

Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync not working in Mobile Network – Blackberry Z10
I have set-up office email account in Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync this work only over office Wi-Fi not working outside of office Wi-Fi range. When I back to office all new e-mail loaded automatically. I have no problem with yahoo email setup in the same Z10 hand set work in both Wi-Fi and Mobile network. I have data plan with my carrier. Both emails were working in my previous Blackberry hand set Bold 9900. But with this New Z10 this become a problem
What could a the problem and I need help please

The URL you provided https://... does require SSL as it has a "s".
Have you tested the server OMA setup with a notebook or desktop (https://webmail.domain.com/OMA)?
You should receive a login prompt for username & password following by an Inbox listing of messages.
We used this step to verify server setup before configuring an iPhone. Lastly, we made certain that connectivity would work from outside or within our company by doing the following:
1) created A record for webmail.domain.com to a public IP that route through the firewall on 443 to the Exchange server's private IP - this handles external traffice
2) added an internal DNS record for webmail.domain.com to the private IP of the Exchange server.
This ensures that webmail.domain.com sync's to exchange from outside or from within the Enterprise.

When will BlackBerry Z10 be in stock again?

Hi, I'd like to buy the BlackBerry Z10 from the following site, but it's out of stock atm.
Does anyone know when it will be in stock again?
http://store.shopblackberry.com/store/bbrryeu/en_GB/pd/productID.288940400/categoryID.67157000

I suppose your best bet is to send them an email and ask them when are they going to renew their stock.

Faulty Devices - Blackberry Z10

Our company recently renewed the corporate mobile phone contract with Maxis and we received Blackberry Z10 Smart Phones as free device for the plan that we signed up.
We received 58 units of Blackberry Z10 in June 2014, out of which to-date, several units (40%) have proven to be faulty and warranty claims were made. The claims were handled by IXSUN SDN BHD – Blackberry Service Centre at Tropicana City Mall.
The type of claims varies from hardware reset, faulty battery, keypad not working, system hang etc…
Our business is IT based and we depend a lot on the Smart Phone, accessing to e-mails and as 80% of our employees are Consultants, they should always be reachable on phone. The faulty devices cost the company additional expenses (admin costs – mileage and toll) and a waste of billable time. We are extremely disappointed and unhappy with the quality of device sent and demand that all the units be replaced with a new batch of devices – all 58 units in total.
We are also surprised with your Service Centre policy whereby no hardcopy is given as supporting document for the warranty claim. Only Acknowledgement Job Card is given and upon receiving the repaired phone, the form is retained by the Service Centre and for record, we are requested to take photo of the form instead!
Please find enclosed, copies of the photo shots taken of the forms, last batch of phones sent in for warranty claim last week.
This is a serious allegation and do revert with your solution to our problem within 14 days of the date of this letter, failing which we will cancel the corporate plan with Maxis and return all the phones back to you and seek monetary compensation for the breach of contract in furnishing faulty devices.
Should you have any queries, please contact Ms Sue at 03 56369016 ext 138 or 012 3242137.

Apps on BlackBerry World for BlackBerry Z10

Hi BlackBerry
I'm very impressed with the new BlackBerry Z10 device with its new features, display resolution, keyboard typing and gestures, but I have a big issue with the Apps on BlackBerry world.
Still BlackBerry World is missing lots and lots of popular apps that are widely used and are currently available on Apple AppStore & Android Google Play. I know that you are working on it, and it is hard for now to compete with Apple & Android appstores, but at least there is a punch of apps that are mostly common worldwide, especailly the social networking and voip calling apps which have to be launched officially on BlackBerry world as soon as possible.
In addition, I'd like to draw your attention that the Facbook app (which is currently integrated with BB 10) is an older version of Facebook than the currently available one for Android & iOS devices (one big difference is that the current facebook app version for Android & iOS devices include the "Share" feature for my feeds and stories, while the facebook app on BB 10 still does not include that feature). I don't know about twitter and linkedin, as I didn't check yet, but at least pleasue ensure with their developers that those native integrated apps are updated to their latest versions to provide BlackBerry users the same experience that Android & iOS users are having.
Also, about apps, there are many apps developed by Google (like youtube, Google Maps & Navigation, Google +, Google Current ...etc) which are not yet available on BlackBerry world (The Youtube app on BB 10 is just a shortcut to the internet broweser and not a fullt fledged Youtube App). Having Google apps on BlackBerry world will also give a big push to the users base for BB 10 (especially the Google Maps & Navigation, which are ranked and considered the best mapping database and app worldwide). I know that Google have to develop such apps from their side (as the same for other developers), but I hope that BlackBerry should give this issue its ultimae priority, as I think that the major drawback (if I can name it so) for BB 10 to earn a significant market share worldwide is the absence of many popular and widely used apps on the BlackBerry World as compared with Apple App Store and Android Google Play.
I know that BB 10 and its OS is just the begining, and that BlackBerry have more to provide to us from the apps side and other sides as well, so keep moving and hope to see the positive results soon.
Regards;

Hi ahmed_mh1,
Blackberry has certainly put in a concerted effort to woo app developers of all types, big names and small alike. It by far the best effort that I have ever seen from them in this regard.. Unfortunately no matter the effort by them it will always come down to numbers for the big guys. If they aren't sure there will be a ROI on the investment of developing they won't put the resources into it.
This can be seen with the Facebook app you mentioned, it is a great example because it wasn't developed by Facebook... Blackberry ended up doing it for them. I'm sure that we have all noticed that Blackberry has been busy working on other areas of the phone, and that they have lots more work that we would all like to see done.
Would you rather have better notification granularity, or a better Facebook app?
If all of the million + z10 use re would all petition Facebook for a better FB built app, then we would have a much better chance of seeing the dream FB app that we desire.
Of course we all know about the rumours that FB wants to have their own phone.. so maybe conflict of interest has played into the game...?
#GetWithBB10!!! As Kevin O'Leary says.. it is the best!

Can't find an app on Blackberry World yet? Tweet the developer and ask when they will #GetWithBB10 !!

Problems with the location on facebook blackberry z10

hi ,
my blackberry z10 facebook application doesn't show my location when i update a status or a check-in
i will be pleased if you could help me to solve this issue

This is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.
