if you store an EXE file, your PC should be set to scan all USB and network shares and should detect it before you run it
where did you see android virus?

Here's a tease from a RIM PM on the status of BB10 for the PlayBook

This is a table scrap of positive news from a RIM Project Manager that something is in the pipes for the PlayBook for sure...when it will arrive is the unknown factor though. The question was: "So hows BB 10 for the PlayBook coming?" The reply says: "My lips are sealed! Good things to come. John" (If you right click on the image below and select view image it will enlarge in the same window in FireFox - most likely IE or Chrome too.)
I mean, we've heard nothing for quite some time officially that BB 10 was coming to the PlayBook. So, to me at least, this states that something is indeed coming to the PlayBook and reinforces that fact. It doesn't say anything else obviously. But reassurance is comforting.

RIM has stated all along that BB10 would be coming to the PlayBook sometime AFTER the launch of the BB10 for the smartphone devices. They've not been silent on that, and John's is just the latest in confirmations.
Thanks, can't wait to have it on the PB!

Wifi for the playbook

I just bought my husband the playbook and we dont know how to get our phone to act as a wifi hotspot in order for us to use our phones for internet - we live in SA - help anyone??

1. You can use the Bridge function on your BlackBerry handheld device to send a signal to your PlayBook.
2. You can use the PlayBook > Options > Tether to your BlackBerry handheld device for a signal.
or
3. IF your handheld BlackBerry has the function of Mobile Hotspot, you can use that for the Playbook to connect via WiFi. I don't know what exact model of the Curve you have.
What is your exact model number of Curve?
And, What is your Operating System loaded to your device? Look at Options > Device > About, third line down beginning with a "v.7.0.x.xxx", What is yours?

Can I use my Android tablet charger for the PlayBook?

Hello,
I got a PlayBook and it came with the wrong charger plug. It's for the US that I can't use here in Germany.
Can I use my Android tablet charger for the PlayBook instead?
The information on the chargers are similiar but for the output it's a bit different: (They both say 5V but than 1.8 instead of 1.5)
PlayBook charger output: 5V = 1.8A
Android tablet charger output: 5V = 1.5A
Thanks for any feedback.

It'll charge slightly slower, but yes.

Suggestion for the PlayBook Team

There have been suggestions made and issues identified with the PlayBook on this and other forums. Many of these are understandable with the initial release of a totally new product, new OS, and very limited development time.
My issue is more fundamental: What is the PlayBook supposed to be?
   1) Business Tool?
   2) Entertainment Device?
   3) Smartphone Extension/Enhancement?
It appears that PlayBook is trying to be "all of the above, to all people, and master of none"
The PlayBook was to be my business tool. Unfortunately it currently fails to meet my minimum business requirements. The functionality for the two other uses seems to be limited as well.
It would be helpful if the PlayBook Team conveyed the primary purpose of the PlayBook; and, concentrated development in that direction. This would provide a realistic expectations as to the future use of my PlayBook.

What is wrong with all of the above?
What's the focus of the iPad, Xoom and Tab?
I do believe you'll see it fulfill all three as apps develop and time passes. Obviously right now it's not serving your needs.

So i did. I'd already backed up the playbook the day before so it was ok when the small windows said, "all data would be remove and playbook would return to factory settings". I did all the procedures and the blackberry desktop software still wont connect to the playbook. I tried uninstalling the blackberry desktop software and re-installing it, but the same thing keep on showing up. So i cant access my playbook.
Can someone plz help me????????
PS... My Playbook is on OS 2.1.0.1088 and is 16GB

Why is there a 30 day limit for email on the Playbook

Sorry this isn't really a support question but I was wondering if anyone knows why they maintained the maximum 30 day limit on email etc for the Playbook. I kinda understand the logic for a phone (although it would be nice to have the option of all my mail) but I use my playbook differently and really need all my mail not just the last 30 days.

Thanks so much for the best of all of your choice by email again then we will not receive this email is not responsible or so of this tag only one I have been the best time for your help and the next level of risk from you again and learn how much you owe.
Yep, the above is seekrit code explaining the why part. If I tell more they might harm me.
Enjoy the playbook.

How to do things Wrong, or the Playbook. A Catharsis.

Dear Blackberry, I want to talk about your little beautiful tablet: The Playbook.
This is a Catharsis, so don't take this personal, it isn't.
I have one, I found it's hardware to be incredible. The OS (2.0) it's also fast and responsive. There are several thing really well done in it: multitasking, gestures, the way to close programs, how to reset, suspend and shutdown, and many, many others.
But it have a problem, you hate your users. You hate them badly, because you don't know them, or ignore them on purpose (not sure yet).
Let's talk about what can go wrong with such a good product, because there are a few levels of wrong.
First wrong: the basic software
Let's jump to OS 2.0 directly, because thinking on a tablet without a native contacts and mail client gives me the chills.
Twitter. Amazing service eh? Even you have several accounts, in different languages and all. But you don't offer a free native twitter client. You have one, for ALL your phones, and it's good. Amazingly, you didn't port it to QNX, so we are all stuck with buying one, or use the web interface. Look at your great tablet, now grab the crappiest droid tablet with at least V2.3 of the OS. In one of those two tablets you have twitter out of the box. Hint: not in yours.
Blackberry Messenger (BBM). Again, amazing service. I think that's the single feature of your products that make you sell about 1M phones in a 40M inhabitants country, mine. Really amazing. So, if you get a Blackberry, you have it, right? No, wrong. Not with the Playbook. And you know what? That makes the Playbook a LOT less appeal to LOTS of people. Apple copied you, and released a messaging application with iOS 5, for idevices only. At the same time them where releasing a tablet with a feature that copied from you (because it's a feature that sells products), you where dumping that feature. I'm wondering if you didn't want to sell tablets, but just show off the fact that you can make one if you want.
Second wrong: connecting to PCs
As far as I've used mildly advanced devices (phones, tablets, even a Palm!) they all connected to my computer as a Massive Storage Device. At least, all of them have the option easily available (with the Palm I had to install a tiny, free, third party program). But not the Playbook. Oh no. It must do it in the most obnoxious way an intelligent (and evil) engineer can create. A virtual USB network adapter? Browse through a virtual shared folder? It's hard to imagine the creative session in which such a devilish idea was devised: “Can you do it more difficult and obscure?” “I can make it connect as a virtual USB network device, but that's too far!” “Do it! mwahahahahaha!”
So, I end up asking myself, Do you hate your users? I see that you are under heavy fire from US tech media, that clearly want you and other players (like Nokia) cold dead. I've read several reviews of your tablet and phones that didn't do justice to neither of them, but you seem to like to offer soft flanks to attacks.
Some times it looks like as YOU don't believe in YOUR OWN platform as to migrate the most basic software, How do you expect third parties to do it? Make all your software (or the most used or otherwise important) available for the Playbook and other developers will follow, no the other way around.
Reading forums and blogs I see some people believe that some of your most bizarre decisions, like the connecting to a PC monstrosity, are based in what CTOs or the like told you for security reasons. Aren't CTOs the ones happily jumping into the BYOD bandwagon because it's cheaper? Those are good clients to please while making all the others curse your ancestors, really a top notch strategic decision.
You know, this era is becoming, in certain aspects, most bottom-up than top-down. Consumer decisions are every year more based in peers than in marketing (with the admirably exception of Apple, which we can discuss other day if you want). And companies aren't in the mood to argue with their userbase, especially if that is more expensive than to let them do what they want (ie. BOYD).
Your users are the ones that uses your devices, not the ones that buys them. That leaves the CTOs and the like as an small subset of users, not the most important. If enough people in the company complains about crappy software and say that they want to use their drois or idevices for free, your CTO it's not going to argue much. And not having a native, preinstalled Twitter client, or having to go through a pain to simply connect the tablet to a PC are the kind of things about which users complain loudly.
Times are changing, so should your bussiness model. Be smart and be quick. Don't be Nokia (Who, by the way now had all their flagship phones gone obsolete in a single press conference by Microsoft. Now MS just needs to delay WP8 a few months to bring Nokia to its knees. A smart move by Nokia, huh?).
Be intelligent Blackberry, sharp your teeth and look what people will want to do with your tablet and phones and make the tablet and phones do that for them. After that, see how you can secure it to CTOs taste, but with user experience fixed in a high standard.
It's a shame to see a giant and innovative company like you struggle against your own incompetence, or the incompetence of a highly positioned moron, not sure about that. It's the same with Nokia, they can't stop shooting their feet.
Do yourself a favor, ask users what they want to do with their tablets, and make your tablets do so.
My apologizes for all the moronic errors with my English, it's not my mother tongue and my proficiency left a lot to be desired.
Greets,
Anibal

First, this forum is a peer to peer support community. While RIM people do look in now and then they don't offer official support here. It's possible some may read your post, though.
I'm going to see if I can address your main concerns:
Twitter: There are several apps available in AppWorld. Personally, I just use the web app supplied and it works just fine. Additionally, you can download Android apps to your Playbook quite easily. My favorite place to get them is from here:
http://goodereader.com/apps/playbook/playbook-android-apps/
BBM: This service requires a BB data plan via a BlackBerry. I bridge my PlayBook to my BlackBerry and can use BBM quite easily (though Groups are not yet supported.)
Connecting to PC: Please download the Desktop Software from www.blackberry.com/desktop
Hopefully, this helps you some. I much prefer my PlayBook over my iPad any day. I have taken the time to research on the Internet and figure out how to convert my own Android apps over to PlayBook and it has given me some extra utilization. It's not hard to do once you get everything set up.

The Playbook great hardware and os made useless by RIM

This is me ranting as I spent £400 on a blackberry playbook great hardware and os is impressive but you cannot do much on it becasue:
To this day the Native SDK is not available.
RIM them seleves have mentioned that they need more apps for the playbook and when IM+ requested approval of their app they are still waiting now close to 3 months.
EA Games are laughing at you, they have developed many games for apple and only three for playbook.
You guys at RIM should be sacked and get people that can do their jobs.
And why are you not clear if the Playbook has GPS, yes or no simple answer.
I used to be a huge Blackberry fan, but I think that they are going down. I cannot recommend this product to anyone which makes me feel like a fool for buying it myselve.
Regards
Tahid (personal content removed)
RIM please sack people in your company for there incompentancies.

grissom, are you saying that RIM is still supporting the Playbook? I had no idea!
Well, I missed out on Betamax. No one in my family ever owned a Tucker. But I'll be able to tell my grandchildren that I once owned a Playbook...

Will the playbook ever get Native email? What about Android Apps?

I was told the bridge was just to be a temporary fix until native email would be compatible on the playbook. Does anyone know if this will ever happen?
I was also told we'd get to download android apps eventually. This also hasn't happened. Does anyone know if this will ever happen?
Thanks

The Co-CEO of RIM stated very clearly at BlackBerry World Conference that an on-device PIM was coming, within 90 days or end of summer, I don't recall which, as well as promised an Android app player(and Angry Birds for the Playbook!). So far, none of the three have been delivered.
Waiting with you.

Repackaging Android Viewer App for BlackBerry PlayBook

Hi,
Does anyone have tried this? If yes, then was repackaged Viewer working OK on the PlayBook? What tools/utilitiies were used for repackaging as there are few available:
https://bdsc.webapps.blackberry.com/android/
http://crackberry.com/how-install-android-market-and-other-applications-your-blackberry-pl aybook
"The BlackBerry PlayBook is a tablet like no other. The powerful QNX Real Time Operating System embedded within allows it run an entirely different operating system as another application on top of the standard PlayBook OS. This is how the PlayBook will run repackaged Android applications. For the most part, though, repackaged apps will appear to run just like regular PlayBook applications."
Thank you,
Gennady
Update: This compatibility test determines how compatible your app is with the BlackBerry PlayBook OS:
https://bdsc.webapps.blackberry.com/android/bpaa/apk-compatibility-check
And this is a result for Android Market Installer build with Sprint 19 Viewer Builder:
Your application is not compatible with the BlackBerry® Runtime for Android™ Apps.
Your application uses a feature which is incompatible with the current version of the BlackBerry® Runtime for Android™ Apps. We recommend that you download the BlackBerry® Plug-in for ADT to test your application and remove features as required.
4. Severe incompatibilities found
Impact     Type     Reason
3     uses-permission     com.android.vending.BILLING
So if In-app Billing would be optional checkbox for Android app with the optional use of com.android.vending.BILLING in the code, then I guess it will be possible to repackage Viewer for PlayBook. And yes, Amazon Appsstore Installer is compatible with the BlackBerry Runtime for Android Apps.

OS2 for the Playbook is still in beta at this point, should be released sometime next month.
So your problem is not that you can't find any apps, you just can't find the one(s) you're looking for.

Tethering from BB style to the Playbook

hi
can anyone help me Tether from a Boostmobile BB Style to my (recently bought) playbook please?

Here is the information on Blackberry Bridge:
http://docs.blackberry.com/en/smartphone_users/deliverables/27018/About_Bridge_1266476_11.jsp
You can have multiple blackberries setup to connect to the playbook.
You can only have one blackberry ID for the playbook.
This is fine because in app world, the playbook will only display playbook compatible apps.
