Is it possible to use a blackberry q10 from sprint on the verizon network?

Can the phone be "flashed" over or unlocked for use on the verizon network and if so how do i go about doing so. I'm not sure if this question has already been asked sorry for a repeat if it already has. Thanks.

Because the new BlackBerrys are "world phones", they have GSM radios (T-Mobile and AT&T) as well as CDMA radios (Verizon and Sprint). Sprint and Verizon will never allow a device they did not sell themselves on their network, but the GSM carriers don't operate that way. They "lock" the phones they sell to their own networks, but once unlocked you can use a GSM phone on any GSM carrier's network. Verizon BlackBerrys come with the GSM side unlocked so they're ready to operate on T-Mobile or AT&T right out of the box.

  • Can I use a Blackberry 8530 from sprint on verizon?

    I have a sprint Blakberry 8530 that was used on the Sprint network. It is no longer active on Sprint.  We have a Verizon Reality that we don't like and want to use the blackberry.  Can I use this phone (the 8530) on Verizon?  And what needs to be done to make it work (if anything)?

    Yes the phone can be FLASHED to verizon-wireless's software. No the company will not aid you in doing so due to their license agreement with the FCC. It states that Verizon Wireless can not activate phones registered to other carriers. This is due to change, but no-one knows when.
    All sprint phones are CDMA. The only carriers that do not provide CDMA phones are T-mobile and At & T.

  • How to reflash a Q10 from Sprint US

    I recently got a blackberry Q10 from Sprint US as a thank you for attending their session in BBLive in Orlando. Since that time, I moved to Canada and I now use the Rogers Network. The device has a SIM Card and is asking to be activivated. Since it is not activated yet, I cannot use the unlocking function under "Security and Privacy" and then  SIM Card as that option is not in the menu. Since I am not planning to head to the US, and I no longer live in the US, I need some other way to either unlock the device or reflash the device to a Canadian Carrier (Rogers). I have confirmed from Sprint US, that the Q10 I have does indeed support the GSM network for roaming purposes. So it matter of finding a new way to unlock the device or reflash the device to be Rogers compliant. Any ideas?

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    If all chances have used up, there is nothing further you can do. Even if you happen to have now the correct code, it is useless. Only the factory can now (legally) unlock your BB. Typically, I've heard that the cost of having BlackBerry do this for you will be greater than the cost of just buying a new one. But, you are able to ask them...see here:
    http://us.blackberry.com/support/programs/technica​l/incident.jsp
    Note, however, that this process will start with a fee...
    If you obtained your unlock code from somewhere but it was incorrect, your recourse could be with them -- however, they may well question why you exhausted all 10 attempts before contacting them.
    If your BB was already MEP locked and you obtained it from a source that represented it as being able to be unlocked, then your recourse would be with the seller you obtained it from. eBay provides plenty of buyer protection for buyers who receive items that do not match what the listing stated...but you need to investigate that with eBay.
    Good luck!

  • TS2972 is it possible to use home sharing between two users on the same computer?

    My wife and I have itunes accounts and want to be able to share music we have each bought on our accounts. We have tried setting up the home sharing on our PC but it doesn't show up on the screen. Can anyone please help?

    "Is it possible to use home sharing between two users on the same computer?"
    No. Home sharing is used to connect two running instances of iTunes across a network. When you switch users on the computer all applications running on the other profile are suspended.
    You can however share your respective media folders so that they are visible in either profile and then copy over any content that you want, or you could create a single joint library which you use when either user is logged in.

  • Is it possible to use List Type in XML schema within the SOA Rule author?

    Is it possible to use List Type in XML schema within the SOA Suite Rule author? The reason is that with the following XSD, Rule author generates XML facts of type "List" for the element "ResultSet". Basically I want to check the Input facts (Input1, Input2, Input3) for some conditions and then assign action to the element Resultset of type List (array). The output Resultset can contain multiple values based on the input facts. My problem is that I am unable to see the ResultSet in the "Assign" action type of the action block. Is it possible to use the Resultset of type List with the Rule author or is there any limitation on the rule author and any workaround for this?

    Hi Richard,
    I have slightly modified the xml schema you suggested and was able to import into the rule author. the following is the modified XSD. Rule Author created a List type for the "ResultSet" . I still don't see "Resultset" in the assign action, so I tried creating RL function in order to assign the output to the "Resultset", but was unsuccessful so far. can you please let me know how to populate the resultset with the output values? Thanks a lot.

  • Is it possible to bring a non-Verizon unlock iPhone 5 to the Verizon network?

    Is it possible to bring a non-Verizon unlock iPhone 5 to the Verizon network? 
    I spent over an hour and a half talking and/or waiting on Verizon customer service yesterday and another 52 minutes today.  At the end of all that, Verizon's representative told me that even though my iPhone 5 is unlocked, I can't bring it to the Verizon network.
    During this time, I was told several times that my phone had to be added to the Verizon database.  Yesterday when I was told this, I was told it would take 30 to 60 minutes.  Today I was told that it might take two to three days but that even after the change to the database goes through, I still would not be able to use my phone on Verizon's network.

    No not possible. Verizon doesn't import IMEIs into their database. Also the unlocked iPhone 5 does not have a CDMA radio so it wouldn't connect anyway.  You need to use a GSM carrier for that iPhone to work.

  • When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Thx for your help,  Bruce

    When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Happens from Chrome, IE, Word, Excel, Powerpoint. Previously had deskPDF installed but uninstalled correctly. Can't find a preference setting for the auto launch. Thx for your help,  Bruce

    A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

    What roaming charges? If you have a local plan there are no roaming charges. This is a major reason for using a local plan.
    Contact, or visit the website,  whatever local provider you are considering and get their plan details.

  • HT4528 I receive a 4s after been use for 2 years in the verizon network and the customer upgrade to a 5.I will like to use the phone overseas but I do not use Verizon.

    I receive a 4s after been use for 2 years in the verizon network and the customer upgrade to a 5. I will like to use the phone overseas but I do not use Verizon, how I can get this phone legally unlocked without having to add service because I'm with Sprint under a contract?
    I can get the prior  owner of the phone info if you nedd to contac her to verify, just let me know thank you.
    If the phone was used in the Verizon network for 2 years, is that not enough time to get the phone unlocked?

    I have sprint phone and service without simcard, Sprint and Verizon use CDMA. But if I can get the Verizon iPhone 4S unlocked, I can use it let's said in the caribean, canada, europe etc.,  with a local simcard from the service provider and country that I visit . No to be use here in USA with Sprint or Verizon, only to be use with GSM-Simcard when I travel out of USA. 

  • Blackberry Q10 10.3.1.177​9 Network Connectivi​ty Problems

    I upgrade my blackberry Q10 to the above OS version and since then its just giving me problems,I am not sure if upgrading is the problem or its just an issue with this phone.
    i cant make calls sometimes, saying no network connectivity,call ended, sometimes people tell me they cant call me, sometimes the icon for network connectivity on the homescreen just dissapears, says no network.
    Even when i do make calls sometimes, i cant hear the other person clearly, either the line is so noisy and keeps on cutting.
    please advise me on what i can do to sort this problem.also if its possible for me to downgrade the OS version if its the problem?

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    As with so many who come here, I must deduce that you are the unfortunate victim of either a corrupt update process or a corrupt OS package. I recommend the following.
    Use LINK to reload your OS, likely to the same version you presently have (since what link offers is controlled by your carrier, not by BB). See if that helps.
    Otherwise, I recommend a clean OS reload via the unofficial AutoLoader method, which will allow you to bypass your carriers control over the OS version you are offered, and allow you to install something beyond what your carrier has approved which may perhaps contain fixes you need. You also can downgrade to earlier levels via AutoLoader. Note carefully though that you cited in your post your Software Release value, which is completely different from the OS level, and it is the OS level that the AutoLoaders are identified by.
    Good luck and let us know!

    As you can see from the chart above, the BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry Q10 are almost identical when it comes to specs. wever, I found the Q10 offered a better quality screen that also provided more impressive viewing angles. This is due to the Z10’s lesser quality LCD Disply that only pumps out a resolution of 1280 x 768 pixels, while the Q10’s S-AMOLED 720p screen flourishes above.
     In the end, I came to the conclusion that the handset that appeals to the larger majority of smartphone customers is the Z10. This device represents what people are accustomed to in the year 2013, while the Q10 appeals to a shrinking customer base that prefers a physical keypad over a virtual one.

    Q10 vs. Z10 is a highly personal choice. As you pointed out in the specs the basic internals are identical. It comes down to full touch screen vs. physical keyboard. For a traditionalist like me it's the Q10 FTW. But then I cut my teeth on BlackBerrys all the way back to the 7230 model. BlackBerry's outstanding physical keyboard is ingrained in my DNA by now. I've also used Android phones and an iPhone so I'm no stranger to the full touch screen, and I even got used to the on-screen keyboards with that form factor. But the Q10 for me has just enough of a screen that I don't miss the full size screen too much, and it's more than compensated for by the keyboard I love so much. 
    The best choice is to have them both! But if you must pick one, best to go to a store and try them both out for as long as the sales reps will tolerate you.

    No, this is not possible.  It would be like dialing your own phone number.  You must verify an additional new email address for your second iPad.  See the following link which will tell you how to do this.  You will need to add this new address to Facetime app in one of your iPads.
