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

Posted by Bla1ze on 3 May 2013 1:39 am
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...

Posted by Bla1ze on 3 May 2013 12:52 am
Gameloft has been a roll lately with their releases for the BlackBerry platform and it looks as though they're hosting a pretty big sale right now. If you open up BlackBerry World and head to the Gameloft listing, you should see a bunch of titles have either been reduced in price or have gone outright free. The sale isn't held just to any one specific device either, BlackBerry OS, BlackBerry...

EE in the UK rolls out OS 10.0.10.90 for the BlackBerry Z10

Posted by James Richardson on 14 Mar 2013 10:48 am
Over in Twitterland and in our own CrackBerry forums I've noticed quite a few people saying that they have not been able to download WhatsApp for their BlackBerry Z10 if on the EE network. Great news if you are an EE (Orange & T-Mobile) customer as the carrier has released OS version 10.0.10.90, meaning that as well as all the OS improvements, users should now be able to download WhatsApp...

Leaked OS 10.0.10.648 for the BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha

Posted by Adam Zeis on 12 Mar 2013 10:10 am
We saw OS 10.0.10.648 leak for the BlackBerry Z10 (STL100-3) not too long ago, and now the same OS has leaked for the BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha and STL100-1 models (if you don't know your model number, go to Settings > About). For Dev Alpha users, this update brings along some features and fixes that some Z10 owners have received through carrier updates. Keep in mind that you'll need to install...

AT&T rolling out OS 10.0.10.684 (10.0.10.88) for the BlackBerry Z10

Posted by Adam Zeis on 11 Mar 2013 12:27 pm
On the heels of the AT&T BlackBerry Z10 announcement earlier today, it looks like things are off to a good start as OS software 10.0.10.88 (OS version 10.0.10.684) is now available OTA. Current users with an unlocked Z10 on AT&T were left out in the last round of updates from other carriers, so this is a welcome update and it will most likely be the same version for AT&T devices at...

Quick Tip: Updating your BlackBerry to a different carrier's OS? Make sure you delete BOTH vendor files

Posted by Adam Zeis on 14 Mar 2012 4:12 pm
As I found out earlier this morning, installing another carrier's OS on your BlackBerry isn't as easy as downloading and deleting the vendor.xml file -- now you have to delete both vendor files. It seems that in one of the updates to BlackBerry Desktop Manager, the vendor.xml file is not only located in one folder, but two. In the past you simply had to delete the lone vendor file and you were...

BlackBerry Curve 9360 joins in on the OS 7.1.0.190 leak

Posted by Michelle Haag on 11 Jan 2012 2:26 pm
Hey all you BlackBerry Curve 9360 owners, now you too can upgrade to OS 7.1.0.190 that the Bold 9900, Torch 9810, and Torch 9860 previously saw. Of course, as this is a leaked OS and not official, if you choose to download it make sure you do a backup first, and let us know in the comments or forums how it works out for you. *OS Disclaimer - Please Read: Keep in mind this is NOT an official...
