The BlackBerry Z10 is in your hands - now what?
Congratulations! You've unboxed your brand-spanking-new BlackBerry Z10 - the plastic covering is peeled and the software is in its pristine, fresh-from-the-factory state. You almost don't want to defile its purity, but before long the possibilities become impossible to resist and eventually overwhelming. Take a deep breath, bro. We've got the hit list of the first ten things you should do to set a solid foundation with your shiny new BlackBerry Z10.
Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to go crazy with overcharging a new lithium-ion battery, but considering how much you're going to be using it on unboxing day, you'll want to make sure it's topped up. In general, you should avoid draining the Z10 completely if you can help it, and charge periodically through day-to-day use. Regardless of usage, your battery life will go down over time, but if you want to limit how much of a dent is put in by charge cycles, snag a spare battery and swap out regularly.
Ten tips and tricks to extend your BlackBerry Z10 battery life

Obviously you want to start getting e-mail and other messages right away. There are hooks for Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo!, Evernote, Box, and Dropbox built right into the system settings. If you've got more specific account requirements, there are also options for generic IMAP, POP, CalDAV, CardDAV, Exchange ActiveSync, and Balance-enabled work accounts, too. Of course, the very first account you'll need to set up is a BlackBerry ID if you don't already have one.
Read our step-by-step guide on how to set up accounts on the BlackBerry Z10
A simple unlock code can make all the difference if your beloved BlackBerry Z10 falls into the hands of ne'er-do-wells. It's an easy enough precaution to take, even if it makes things slightly more annoying on a day-to-day basis. BlackBerry Protect can also help you take care of a lost phone, or even track it down via GPS. Once you've done that, you may even feel confident enough to store other passwords on there through Password Keeper.

Low blow, yes... but I too feel the Z10 is finally a real smartphone.
camera531 Mar 22, 2013 at 1:02 am
I think it's great that people are excited about the Z10 and BB10, but to basically call it the first "real smartphone" when it's not even on par with last year's android and ios models (it's a great phone, but let's just stay realistic for a second), makes you just sound like a clueless FANBOY. Why does the competition have to be "crap" for the Z10 to be "great"?
JPSKILLZ Mar 22, 2013 at 1:23 am
Because the competition is crap. Just stating my opinion, much like you stated yours. It's OK if you don't agree, that's why it's called "Mobile Nations." Join the Nation that's best for you, AKA KICK ROCKS! LoL
PS: Last year's models are basically the previous year's models. No TRUE innovation, much like the recent Android Launch Debacle and Apple's coming Debacle: http://www.phonedog.com/2013/03/21/apple-s-jony-ive-reportedly-pushing-t...
SplatHead Mar 22, 2013 at 1:25 am
Forgive me for the misunderstanding, the z10 to ME is the first real Blackberry smartphone.
All my past BB's (currently rocking a 9810 - 9900 & 9860 collecting dust).. never felt like I could do much with them... I guess mostly because of the apps... Always depressing to see some commercial, website, business, ect.. offering their app and only supporting iOS and Android. Just hope BB10 catches on enough so that we get those cool apps/tools. Thankfully we can sideload most but native is always better... Though Android 4.1 support will help alot.

Maybe not the best thing to do but.. you can then post a comment like "* TAGGED FOR LATER" first... then be nice and actually comment under it so its not spamy... Then you can click on your username and see your post history. It only shows the last 10 or so comments but i guess its another way... bookmarks might be best or better yet.. email the link to yourself... then you can read it on your new z10 once you get your email setup..

FYI: Not sure if ya'll are familiar with Ghost Armor, but they are the best in my experience. Example: Put a screen protector on my Playbook. Gave my old Playbook to my dad and got a new one. I removed the Ghost Armor from that one and put it on my new one... still fresh till this very day! Can't beat it plus you get a LIFETIME WARRANTY! I'll be stopping by a Ghost Armor kiosk first thing. www.Ghost-Armor.com

You definitely wouldn't be the only one. To some degree, we've done it in some form or another. In meetings, in other public places like the subway, train, buses...... However I do find it rather odd, why can't we just pick up a smartphone of our choice and enjoy it for what it is? We're not critical of others for buying one brand of car versus another, so why do it for an electronic device? Mind blowing if you ask me...

Ricky124:
Unfortunately this kind of rumours are hitting the news when things are suddenly looking good for BlackBerry, good reviews and positive reports on sales numbers. Please see, and spread the word, of this link from cesg setting the facts straight.
http://www.cesg.gov.uk/News/Pages/Blackberry-10-in-Government.aspx
While we are at the subject, there's another so called "News" flying around about the Pentagon replacing all their BlackBerries with ios products.
Not true. Sure they will have devices from other platforms as well (already have today) but this is hardly any news. Any company large enough would look to implement more than one os in their organization. BlackBerry is still the os with the highest level of security cleared and for some BlackBerry will be the only reliable choice for a long time ahead as for others, they might have a position where security is not that big of a thing when it comes to mobile device.

I don't think it is prudent to encourage people to 'sideload' apps on the Z10 for the simple reason that 'sideloaded' apps give inferior experiences.
What CrackBerry and other such forums should be doing is to highlight why developers should code native apps for the Z10. Encouraging this Android port malarkey is to make it seem like there's something wrong even before folks have started.

Absolutely - Blackberry has announced a few times that both Skype and Instagram will be coming to the Z10. In fact, I'm currently running a side-loaded version on instagram on my Z10 and it works great! Skype was announced back on January 30th by Thor himself. All good things come to those who are patient! :)

You can sideload an Android port of Instagram in the meantime...Skype is definitely coming, Instagram native app may take a bit. I have it sideloaded on my Z10 and it works great.

Nice article. I think a little more attention should be brought to BlackBerry Protect, though. Set it up, have it make backups, and be able to do things like find your phone (if lost or stolen), lock it remotely, and even wipe it if it does end up gone forever. It's not perfect, but every little bit of added protection is well worth it.
Patrick Pierobon Mar 22, 2013 at 10:15 am
Another thing i would do first is make sure the software version is up to date. That way you can have the best user experience possible right away. Then I would go into setting up all my accounts and so forth.

i HAVE BEEN EXCITED FOREVER waiting for the release of this phone. I have loved the Playbook and i have been loyal to frustration and now i am waiting one more week. I have only one question: is there a wireless sync to pc calender? I ask because my husband has the iphone and I love how everything on his phone goes right to his very active calender on ipad and Mac. Being that we are both in sales, I wonder does my revered BB have this capability? Or in other words, what is the extent of its ecosystem?

Bigpoint Mar 23, 2013 at 7:36 am
The only thing I would add to the list is get a spare battery and keep it charged and keep it handy. I know that battery life has improved A LOT since the OS update but it doesn't hurt to have a plan B. I've had mine for about 6 weeks now. It is truly a great device but that is still my advice.
lorax1284 Mar 24, 2013 at 1:40 am
You forgot: WATCH THE TUTORIAL VIDEOS AVAILABLE IN THE SETUP APP!
I had my device set up "for me" at my carrier store, and I had to discover the tutorial videos myself by just browsing around the apps... it would have been GREAT for someone to tell me "there are five tutorial videos in the Setup app" which I would have watched immediately".
I think we all know how to use the gestures (now) but it's different enough from the PlayBook that I think EVERYONE who picks up a Z10 and doesn't have the benefit of a live tutorial by a human should watch them... only takes a couple of minutes, but it's vital to getting up and running quickly.

I love this phone, totally rocks, and well worth the wait. I think those 10 things were pretty much in the right order although I would have put protect yourself earlier especially if, like myself you like to live dangerously (no insurance lol) . Good stuff.

I'm very frustrated with it! I have had it 4 days and it doesn't always do what it's supposed to do. Online info is limited - I even printed the online manual with no luck, it doesn't go into detail. Sometimes I have to keep swiping before it works. Only 1 rep at my local AT&T store has the BB 10 so I am going there to see if she can help me. I might return it.

The ongoing and now to over 5 hours to just try and setup an EMAIL account. So the Z10 is showing it is not much better than the Storm I had a few years back. Tried loading a few different email addresses and still will not take and work with any of them. Tried putting them in with the BlackBerry easy system setup didn't work and used the BlackBerry Advanced system and still NO WAY is this Z10 going to work with any of my emails. I tell you what I will take my time to go to a Service provider TECH and see if he can make this thing work. I just don't get it WHY does the IPHONE 5 take these emails and work in seconds of setup time and the Z10 well it's just going to loose customers for BlackBerry all over again.

Please help! I've had my lovely new Z10 a little over a month now, and apart from this one problem, I love it. The problem I have : every time someone calls me, their number is displayed & not their name.
How do I fix this??
