Connecting my z10 to my local mobile network

I bought a Z10 and tested it with my sim card from Vodafone UK and T-Mobile UK, and it worked. However, when I insert a Mauritius emtel sim card, the mobile network switches off and when trying to activate, it remains on the 'activating mobile ' status. Is it because the emtel network is not yet a registered Z10 supported network?

Hello jpyoung,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community.
You will not be able to connect to these services with a BlackBerry Z10 smartphone on this network, as it is not yet supported by this mobile service provider.
Thank you.

Z10, no bbm over mobile network

My Z10 (10.3.1) does not connect to BB services when not on wifi. Ie there is not bb icon on the top right of the screen when on mobile network. What's curious to me at least, is that on the mobile network, bbm video and voice calls work, just not the messages. Once on wifi, the bb logo appears and all is well. I contacted my provider (Telus) and they suggested that is was a sim problem or a phone problem. I had the sim replaced and it did not solve the problem. This occured today July 26 and its been about 9 hours like this. How can I get bbm to work again please? ( I am currently upgradeing to OS 10.3.2.2 Thanks

Are you still encountering issues using BBM over mobile? Thanks!

Z10 won't access mobile network

Hi everyone. My Z10 STL 100-1 won't give me an option to switch on the mobile network (its protected). The airplane mode is off. When I go to Sim card settings, the phone doesn't sense the Sim card. I'm using a micro sim card. I've done a battery pull, taken off Sim card and put it back in, left the the battery off the phone for some time as it is also very hot and not charging fully but when I put the battery on, there is still no access to mobile network. I can't make calls at all. Please help! K.

Agreed...and, if you feel adventurous, 10.2.2.xxxx is already released as well.
Good luck and let us know!

How can I connect my iPad3 to my local home network?

How can I add my iPad3 to my local home network?

Wifi network? Tap on the settings icon. Choose the name of your network, tap on it, follow the on screen prompts to sign into the network.
If it's not wifi, then you can't. The iPad doesn't support wired internet

HTC Rezound Will not Connect to Internet via Mobile Network

Hi,
I recently provided my phone to my youngest son so I went to Verizon and got a new sim card and had them set it up. Everything worked for about a week or so. Now the phone will not connect to the internet via the mobile network. The only way he can connect to the internet is via the WiFi.
I have checked all settings and it all seems fine. I also did 2 factory resets and still no go. I removed the Sim card, booted up phone and turned back off, re-installed the sim card and booted again. Still same problem. Signal strength is good but the 4g or 3g doesn't show up like it used to. When I click on internet it says network not available and tries to bring up the WiFi.
Do I need a new Sim card? Is the phone messed up? Anyone have any idea?

I was having the exact same problem and it was driving me crazy. After reading some other threads, I removed my original SIM card and started up the phone until the home screen tells you the SIM card is missing (Emergency calls only). Switch it off, put the SIM card back in and restarted the phone. Got my mobile internet (4GLTE) coverage straight away.
Hope if works for you too!
Good luck.

Mobile network state "connecting" but never connects...help please?

Hi,
When I try to turn on 3G data on my Fascinate, it never connects. Under settings/about phone/mobile network state it just says "connecting" but never connects, and the "3G" icon never appears in the top right corner of the phone. I've tried toggling the airplane mode, turning off, then turning back on and toggling airplane mode off, but it didn't work.
I was wondering why I haven't received the 2.3 OTA update yet, and I guess it's because my data is not working.
Any suggestions?
thanks for any help you can give!

Not to make it sound simplistic, but have you pulled the battery out? Shut off phone, pull the battery for 30 seconds, put the battery back in, and then turn it on.

Z10 kills my Devolo WiFi network

Hi all,
got my Z10 two weeks ago and I'm very pleased with the device except for one issue that is sort of a show stopper. Whenever I connect the Z10 to my home Wifi network, after a while my whole network goes down. All devices lose connection and I have to power cycle the WiFi access point to fix it. This only happens with my Z10 so I've disabled it's Wifi for now until I find a solution. The model and make of my WiFi AP is Devolo dLAN 500 WiFi. I've already sent an e-mail to Devolo support and I'm waiting for their response. Reading through forums here and on crackberry it seems I'm not the only one with this problem. I've tried setting fixed channel, WPA, WPA2 etc but no matter what I do, the problem is still there. Is there anyone with a similar setup/problems, please give me a shout.
Many thanks,
Gerry

I know nothing about that router. I can only suggest to make sure you're using the latest firmware on it. To be honest, it sounds like something in the router firmware is wonky. I haven't heard of any other routers doing this.

One Z10 works fine, the other has problems connecting to mobile network

Hi, my wife and I both have Z10's, and we're both on the same mobile network (Wind Mobile in Canada). The wife's Z10 seems to have no problems connecting to or staying connected to Wind Mobile. Mine on the other hand seems to randomly drop the connection, or has trouble obtaining connection, and sometimes ends up roaming.
The only difference between the two Z10's is that hers is purchased through Wind Mobile itself, and it is locked to their network for the moment. I purchased mine a bit later, and I bought mine directly through Blackberry's online store, and mine is therefore unlocked. What I have to do sometimes is turn off the mobile connection, and turn it back on, and it works after I do that. However, that's annoying, as I'd rather have it automatically retry the network connection so that it doesn't go roaming within my own city.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you're passing by a Wind store in the near future, why not drop in and ask if they'll swap SIM cards for you? It could be something with the SIM.
In the meantime, try resetting your phone. This is equivalent to doing a battery pull and it's usually the first thing I recommend when troubleshooting an issue. Simply press and hold your power button for about 15 seconds until you see BlackBerry on your screen. Don't release the button before that and ignore anything that appears before BlackBerry.
Let us know if either of those solutions helps you.

WiFi works absolutely fine with all other devices including my previous Windows mobile but am concerned that nothing works when I connect to work WiFi as trying to keep data usage to a minimum.

Z10 lost connection to mobile network

My Z10 worked fine for the past 2 years. Yesterday it received messages until 8:08 am, then lost connection to the network. It is a Verizon phone with Verizon SIM and Verizon support told me to go to a store to get a new SIM. That did not resolve the problem. The icon in the upper right now says "SIM activation in progress"...as it has for the past 12 hours. Clearly nothing is happening. When I check Settings, About, SIM, the Z10 reads the SIM but the SIM is not registering with the network.
One guy at the Verizon store had never used a Blackberry and was on Google looking for answers. He suggested it was becuse I went through airport security. Another said the phone had failed and he wanted to sell me an iPhone. I don't want an iPhone and I don't want to lose my unlimited data plan at Verizon (which terminates if I upgrade through Verizon).
I am not convinced it is a hardware problem but I don't have any way to test it and the Verizon guys are just guessing...and trying to sell me an iPhone.
I have not upgraded any SW or changed any settings recently. The phone has not been dropped or anywhere near water...it looks brand new. It just stopped working mid-morning.
How do I get my Z10 working again?
Thanks

Hello,
Given what you describe, you must also have rebooted the device...since the inserted battery blocks the ability to remove/insert the SIM card. So, that basic guidance has already been carried out.
Have you checked the Mobile Network Settings, just in case something was changed accidentally somehow?
Otherwise, what you need to do is escalate beyond those at VZW you are presently talking to...clearly they are not the experts you require. You likely will need to call them (from a landline, so you can do things they recommend) and escalate beyond their Level 1 support folks and get to someone who actually knows the platform and can also check deeper into the VZW network itself.
Good luck and let us know!

Blend maintaining connection over mobile network

Hi there,
I've been using BB Blend (on a Lenovo laptop) by connecting my BB Z10 via an USB cable (no Wi-Fi).
Only today, BB Blend has remained connected to my handset even after I disconnect the cable. On the handset I get the message that Blend has switched to a mobile network connection ansd so it remains connected to my BB Z10.
Now, my questions are:
How and to which network does Blend on the Lenovo laptop connect? (even if it is the handset's network, how does the laptop connect?)
Is this something I should be concerned about - in terms of security?
Thanks everybody.

Hello,
When you disconnect the USB cable, the "hard line" connection between the device and the computer is of course severed. If they are both on the same "local" (e.g., no carrier data network involved) network (either WiFi or hybrid wired and WiFi), the two can communicate with each other that way. If you have set the configuration on the device to allow it to continue to be connected to the computer when the BB has moved off of all WiFi and is solely on your carrier data network, then the two will continue to communicate via that means.
In that last configuration, your BB is communicating to your PC via the wired (or WiFi) network on which your laptop is located, and the BB is communicating via the carrier data network. Those two are then in turn connected via the Internet.
This is a setting you control, on the device. If you do not want this communication happening when the BB moves solely to the carrier data network, then simply shut the setting off on your device.
Hope that helps!

S860 and X2, Google not connecting on mobile network.

I live in Sweden. Had my S860 for 3 years and it has been working fine but some months ago it was not connecting on mobile network with crome and play store. Restart and it could work for some time the it was gone again. At the same time Hotspot, skype and OS update is working fine. Got a new sim card i november but it did not help. This was going more and more bad and finally it did not work at all. Tried to reverse OS a few steps back and still not working. So i tought that it was something to do with hardware. Now i bought a Vibe X2. Away from sweden for the moment (Saudi Arabia) but this one does the same when I try to connect. OS update working but Crome says ssl error and Play Store just wont connect. Saw some forums said it might be time and date that was wrong so i tried to change to local format but it was the same. My S860 i was waiting for 6 month before i could buy it (not for sale in Sweden) in Saudi. Haas been very pleased with it so now when it has been messing with me i had no problem to buy a new Lenovo phone. This time just waiting 3 month before i could buy it in Saudi. Hope this is something I can get some help to solve. /Nils

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.

BB Curve 8520 not connecting to local Wifi network

I bought this BB two days ago.
Device info: BB Curve 8520 OS v5.0.0.681
Your carrier: T-Mobile Prepaid (the Netherlands)
No Apps and 138598276 Bytes free space
No Apps installed
My problem:
I cannot get my local WiFi to work. I can see the 8520 with IP-nr listed in the Wireless clients overview of my DLink DIR-655 router. I see my local network-id listed on the phone's screen beside T-Mobile. The Wifi symbol is grey. In WiFi profiles I can see my network id with a blackbox and white line it.
Whenever I want to make contact through WiFi with for example the hotspot browser I immediately see this message which I translated from Dutch: "Cannot connect to the internet. Try again later."
I have added Wifi with WPS and manually, but nothing helps. Has it something to do with BIS ? I have not used this service and don't even know how to activate that. I am not sure if I even want to do that. I just want to be able to access internet using my local Wifi network.
I also did a battery pull, a router reboot, but still no go.
Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Roland

Start device, go to the APN screen (Settings > Network Connections > Mobile Network > APN)
Enter the APN provided by your carrier
Back out of this screen to save the change
Remove battery and insert SIM again
Test browsing while connected to the mobile network only
