Warning App in Blackberry World

**** warning*** I wanted to get a anti virus for my Blackberry, I went on Blackberry World today and read some great reviews on "Secure AntiVirus Pro by FileArchiveHaven the price said £2.00 for downloading the app. I decided to pay by Paypal, good choice! as it turns out as FileArchiveHaven put a recurring monthly charge of £959 per month!! Luckily Paypal stopped it and I went into my Paypal account to confirm it had to be cancelled.  Blackberry World should be safe expecially as I was downloading an app for antivirus!!  Blackberry World can you do something about this ? thanks

Hi! I've sent you a private message requesting more details. 
Thanks!

  • 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 !!

  • Unable to find Mosip App in Blackberry world

    Hi... 
    Am unable to find MoSIP app in Blackberry world. But when i search in my PC i can find the same. Please help  how to download the same.

    Hello,
    App compatibility is a choice by the app developer. The on-device BBWorld is designed to only show you those apps where the developer has chosen to support your specific device model and OS level. Given what you describe, I would deduce that the developer has not chosen to support yours. You can see what platforms they have chosen to support via your PC in BBWorld, when not logged into your BBID...search for the app and there will be drop down menus listing the BB models and OS levels the developer has chosen to support. The place to make your request, therefore, is to the app developer...plead with them to port their app to your device model and OS level.
    Good luck!

  • How can I buy upgrade app in blackberry world...I'm in nigeria and I don't use prepaid card nor CC..

    Blackberry world problem

    Hi and Welcome to the Community! With that limited information, it's hard to know how to help you. So, start here:Article ID: KB17745 Downloading and purchasing applications using BlackBerry App WorldThere are multiple payment methods available (e.g., PayPal, carrier billing, credit card), but if you have none, then you have no way to pay for your purchase. You must have a payment method that BBWorld accepts, simple as that. Good luck!

  • Illegal Copies of Apps on Blackberry World

    Is Blackberry World regulated in any way to stop illegal copies of apps. I sideloaded a genuine  free Android app that I have had since the first version when i had an android phone. Right now there are at least two other developers who have ported illegal copies of versions of that app. One is a  copy of paid variant of that app and one is an illegal copy of a free version. I know thay are exact copies because  the free one  says it is already  installed on my Z10 but is not the actual developer. Comments please. I feel very sorry for the developer who is not getting the revenue he is entitled to.

    Dishonest people in the world? Never heard of that.
    If you are familar with the apps and the developer, you should report it to the developer and let them handle it, of course.

  • Can I get apps from BlackBerry World without using PayPal?

    My billing plan doesn't allow carrier billing.
    The BlackBerry World website apparently doesn't do billing for some apps.
    (Even though the help for the web site says it does.)
    Is there a way to avoid using PayPal?

    Hi, JerryRigged
    I use a pre-paid debit card on my BlackBerry World account.  I keep less than 50 bucks on there, just to make purchases.  It works well for mine.  Hope that helps,

  • Hong Kong Local Apps Not Available on Blackberry World

    I can't find any of the Hong Kong local apps on Blackberry world. i.e. Appledaily, Wechat and Hong Kong Movie. Anyone know why? Thanks!

    There can be different reasons for this. As far as I can see, you are using a Z10, maybe the apps do not work on your device yet ? Maybe only on older BlackBerry Devices (OS 7 or earlier) and not on BlackBerry 10 (which is the OS of your Z10).
    Or maybe the developer has just set up some restrictions on carrier, and such.
    if you look at the apps you mention in a normal browser on your pc, you can see what the restrctions are of every app (country, carrier, devices) and see if they match for you. If there is still something not clear, you should contact the developer(s) of these apps for more information.
    A like is always appreciated,
    but a nomination for BB Elite even more :-)

  • MY BBM , BLACKBERRY WORLD, FACEBOOK APPS AND OTHER IM APPS STOPPED WORKING ON MY HOME WiFi CONNECTION

    Please I am wondering if anyone will have solution to my BBM problem , I am presently using my blackberry on home wiFi connection as I have ended my contract with my network provider(virgin). The BBM, IM applications ( yahoomessenger, window live, AIM, talk) ,my facebook apps and blackberry world were all working fine even with different wifi connection. But recently I am unable to use all these above mentioned applications more importantly my BBM as I needed it badly to communicate. Initially , I thought it was the internet connection at home but I found out the browser and two other applications I have are working perfectly. I don't know if anyone will have an idea of any solution to this problem. 
    I would appreciate any effort towards solving this problem.
    Thanks

    BBM requires an active BlackBerry data plan. As for others, try downloading the latest version of App World from www.blackberry.com/appworld and then update your Facebook and Twitter apps, most should work via WiFi only.

  • BlackBerry World not accepting VISA card -- follow up to my previous post

    Re purchase of an app for new Z10 --  main software all successfully updated to most recent.  Well, I posted last time about being escalated up through the ranks of BlackBerry software helpers from Bell, and after several levels getting a very easy-to-communicate-with woman from BlackBerry in Halifax, NS...
    She told me Bell would bill me for the apps on my carrier bill, and I told her No, they told me they didn't do that, not in Victoria BC my home town, anyhow.  I asked her to call and contact them...  she said she did, and said Yes, they would.  So I set that up on my BlackBerry World sign-in page using my computer, under her guidance, and it seemed to be set up.  I even purchased an app that way successfully, afterwards...  [She told me at the time that yes, there was a problem with the tool that handles VISA payments, sometimes...]
    BUT, several days later when I went to do the same thing again with another app, well, I had a message in red on my purchase screen on my Z10 that carrier purchase was not available!
    Ahem.
    So, I tried purchasing via VISA again [read my previous post, I called VISA, tried to see if there was something wrong there, no there wasn't].  No form of my re-entering my VISA card or editing it etc. would work.
    So I tried PayPal, over the past weekend I established a PayPal account to be paid for via my same VISA card, that took some doing as the procedure is not that clear on their website and you have to explore the sections under "my money" etc. to see just what is going on with it...  without any warning or info from either BlackBerry or PayPal the account wouldn't work [refused several tries to purchase an app]  until a special method for BlackBerry was posted in that "my money" section on PayPal, they call it a prepayment account or something like that, it takes about an hour or two on a Sunday for that to appear for a new account, and then [I was doing this via my computer after signing in to PayPal] I saw a side message that this purchasing procedure would not work until August 12th.
    Today, August 12th, I just purchased a trial app, Medieval Ringtones, and that went through!  Unfortunately I was on just our own house WiFi [good signal, I thought at the time, though], and just before it got installed something said "network problem" and it stopped installing.  Now I can't buy it again either, I'll try later just to see if it reloads -- it wouldn't reload to the purchase point.  I don't really care, it was an experiment.  I just downloaded a free app, Top 500 Ringtones, from BlackBerry World, and that went smoothly and seems great, lots of choices, most of them free as far as I can tell.
    Warning to users:  I would establish the PayPal account via BlackBerry World's own access point on the computer, first, through the BlackBerry World website,  clicking on their PayPal symbol, before trying to purchase via PayPal, as establishing a PayPal account first, independently,  may lead to confusion if you establish it outside of BlackBerry World.
    Now, I have noticed the work-around posted by a BlackBerry Forum guru here on using a dummy VISA account, this helpful person provides a list.  WOULD THIS HELPFUL PERSON PLEASE EXPLAIN THE PROCEDURE IN DETAIL?  i WOULD HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO DO IT IN PRACTICE -- APPARENTLY THE SOFTWARE WILL STILL CHARGE THE APP TO ONE'S REGISTERED VISA???  PLEASE GIVE DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS.
    If I can, indeed, purchase something via PayPal, or ultimately, indeed with a VISA payment, without a glitch [I'll keep trying] I'll report it here.  Meanwhile all the apps I've downloaded from BlackBerry World have been free ones, except for the one that mistakenly got sold to me via Bell billing me for it [which they won't] a few days ago [either Bell or BB got stuck with the $1.99 or something for that!].  The free ones I've downloaded have been excellent, including this Top 500 Ringtones, just the kind I was looking for, lots of real telephone and cell phone ring sounds for a purist like me...
    But I hope BlackBerry can fix up the glitch in BlackBerry World soon, it shouldn't be there at all...  my husband has the theory the facility is staffed by too small a core of software people to keep up with the problems and wasn't properly tested, or else it was subcontracted out and they are stuck with it until they get a new one -- come on, BlackBerry, get a new BlackBerry World payment procedure that works smoothly, us BlackBerry fans are anxious about you!!!

    Just to say there ARE lots of Apps on BlackBerry World, so potential BB purchasers should not let that stop them, and some very good free ones, excellent -- BlackBerry Travel is really good, and OsmAnd maps are fabulous, big to download, but when you get it you'll be amazed. Just download a provincial or smaller map to start, because they are huge files and very detailed, but lots of trails and paths are on them... good for park trails and such.

  • Unable to make payment via BlackBerry world | AW10006c

    I have been breaking my head with this for the past two months. 
    I live in India.
    The problem I am facing is that I'm unable to purchase any app from BlackBerry world. If I use a credit/debit card, it gives me a AW10006c error. 
    I thought this was due to the added security layer used by debit/credit cards in India. For Visa, it is "Verified by Visa" & for Mastercard it is "Mastercard secure code". So then I used PayPal, it again threw some other error. 
     I first thought it's an error due to my debit card. So I switched to HDFC credit card. It threw the same error. So tried my Standard Charted credit card. The same error again. I can confirm that the cards are working perfectly fine otherwise. In fact, the cards are getting debited GBP1 each time I add it to my account after removing it. The same GBP1 gets refunded after a while. If I'm not wrong, that is how they verify if the card is working or not. After successful addition of the card, when trying to purchase any paid app, it throws the AW10006c error. 
    Later, I felt the error could be because of the 10.3.0.700 SDK os. So, I switched to a clean install of 10.2.1 official and tried all the above steps. Same error codes. 
     Then I tried to use my BlackBerry ID on another device (from Z10 to Q10). Same errors. 
    I made my friend try on his Z10 with his BlackBerry ID and his HDFC credit card and same error again.
    The apps I wanna buy are
    1. Usage Pro (Sasha Kanthan) 
    2. Hub++ (Devcellent Solutions Inc) 
    And a few BBM sticker packs.

    change to another language then try again, if it doesn't work , change back to english then do it again. I annoy sure if this can work but it dose work for my Q10
