How to reload the OS on a BlackBerry Z10 or BlackBerry Q10

There are certain times when you may geek out more than you should with your BlackBerry 10 phone and run into some issues. Whether it be a poor-running OS leak, an interrupted security wipe or a somehow nuked device, you may want to downgrade or reload the stock OS. Thankfully, just as in the past, you can still do so on BlackBerry 10.  With older BBOS devices there was a high chance of "nuking...

Taking BlackBerry Maps for a test drive

Posted by Adam Zeis on 3 May 2013 10:30 am

BlackBerry Maps has been available on BlackBerry for years, however it never quite did the trick for most users. While it did work - it wasn't loaded with features worthy enough of making it a "must have" app. Over the years it has evolved and thanks to the new BlackBerry 10 platform it's finally and app we can be proud of. Keep in mind here that I did most of my testing on a BlackBerry Z10...

White or black not enough? Check out the BlackBerry Q10 in 24kt gold

If for some reason plain old white or black isn't your thing, perhaps you want to opt for something a bit more flashy. Well thanks to Gold & Co. London you can do just that. As has been with many devices before it like the Bold 9900 and P'9981, the BlackBerry Q10 is receiving the gold treatment. It's not as over the top as some others have been, but this 24kt gold Q10 is still a head turner...

BlackBerry R10 caught once again, this time in red

The funny thing about Instagram is that a lot of folks post things to it without giving it a second thought really. If you go looking, you'll find all sorts of things that people most likely should have kept to themselves instead of broadcasting. Such is the case with this unannounced BlackBerry 10 device more commonly known as the R10 or R-Series. We've seen it before a few times now but it's...

Sharing notes is easy with Note Pad for BlackBerry 10

Posted by James Richardson on 3 May 2013 4:38 am

We don't seem to be short of note taking applications on BlackBerry 10 and I've used a few myself. Note Pad arrived in BlackBerry World a while ago and after using it for a few days I have decided that it may well be my favorite one yet. There is one thing that sets this apart from the others I've been playing around with and that's its sharing function. Once in a note the 'Share' tab is...

Update from BlackBerry OS 7.0 to BlackBerry OS 7.1 and get some free apps

If you're still running BlackBerry OS 7.0 on a BlackBerry OS 7.1 capable device I first have to ask -- why? Whatever your reason might be, BlackBerry 7.1 brings plenty of changes and improvements such as Mobile HotSpot, BlackBerry Tag and even WiFi calling where supported and updating is easy. Second, I have some good news for you. If you live in France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Saudi Arabia...

Caught in the wild - the elusive BlackBerry Q10 panda!

Caught in the wild - the elusive BlackBerry Q10 panda!

When the BlackBerry Z10 was released we quickly discovered the tastiness of the BlackBerry Z10 Oreo. Putting a black battery door on the white Z10 made it look not only like a tasty cookie (or maybe ice cream sandwich??), but also gave the slightly slippery white Z10 more grip thanks to the soft touch feel of the black battery door. Now that I have both a white and black BlackBerry Q10 in my...

Have you the skill to beat your opponents with RC Mini Racers for BlackBerry 10

Posted by James Richardson on 2 May 2013 3:51 pm

RC Mini Racers may well be my new favorite game on BlackBerry 10. The action packed game brings you more than just racing around the 32 available tracks as there are weapons involved too. As you drive around the tracks you can pick up missiles and bombs which can be used to strike the other opponents in the race - and that's a ton of fun. With 22 cars in total - you will earn money from...

We go hands on with Poynt for BlackBerry 10

Posted by James Richardson on 2 May 2013 1:49 pm

Poynt has been a huge app for BlackBerry for many a year. We recently told you that it is now available for BlackBerry 10 (Z10 & Q10) and as a free download it really is one of those 'must have' apps on your device. The app is currently an Android port but seems to work just fine for me. The only downside I can see is that when you select to view a location on a map it opens up Google...

The first ten things to do with your new BlackBerry Q10

So you held out on getting a BlackBerry Z10, and now you've got a comfortable, familiar BlackBerry Q10 in your hands. It's easy to fall back into old habits when the Q10 feels so much like the BlackBerry devices you know and love, but you've got to remember that this is an entirely new beast. Of course the vast majority of those differences are for the better, but we're still here to guide you...
