Dear Berry - Issue trying to install 1Mobile Market on the BlackBerry Passport

Posted by Dear Berry on 31 Oct 2014 6:53 am EDT

Hello again readers! Dear Berry is here once again with a mailbag full of BlackBerry questions and woes. Today's question comes from a reader who asks? Will mobile 1 market work on the new BlackBerry passport? I tried it earlier and it was weird. With my Q10 I was able to just click install. With the passport it wants me to zip, unzip etc. Not sure what to do. Thank you for your...

Leaked OS 10.3.0.1418 available for all BlackBerry 10 devices

Posted by Bla1ze on 10 Oct 2014 6:17 pm EDT

Alright, so it's kind of sort of a leak but not really. In any case, while Rogers is in the process of rolling out OS 10.3.0.1418 officially to the BlackBerry Passport, the files are also available for every other BlackBerry 10 device. At this point, you'll have to load the files manually but for anyone familiar with leaks, that shouldn't be an issue. Worst case, you can hang around the...

How to access Quick Settings using BlackBerry 10.3

Posted by James Richardson on 30 Sep 2014 1:51 pm EDT

You may well be thinking we are stating the obvious with this post as 'Quick Settings' are certainly not new to BlackBerry 10 and without any apps open you can still perform a downwards swipe from the top bezel. Where BlackBerry have implemented something new in OS 10.3 is that you can now access the Quick Settings from within any application - something I've wanted for a long time now. I...

At the BlackBerry Passport launch event in Toronto, we caught up with Sanjay Nathwani, Product Manager at BlackBerry to get a closer look at BlackBerry Blend and some of the stuff you can do with the app on the whole.

More BlackBerry Blend details leak - System requirements, supported OS and more!

Posted by Bla1ze on 1 Sep 2014 2:47 am EDT

Although we've been tracking the existence of BlackBerry Blend for what seems forever now, even before it was called BlackBerry Blend, the offering has yet to be officially announced or even commented on by BlackBerry. Given the fact it has been appearing on a larger scale in BlackBerry OS 10.3, it's highly expected it will finally be made official with the BlackBerry Passport. A new leak...

BlackBerry Beta Zone updated with fixes for OS 10.3

Posted by Bla1ze on 29 Aug 2014 11:56 am EDT

A small update to the BlackBerry Beta Zone app has now started appearing on devices. According to the change log, it should fix some issues anyone running BlackBerry OS 10.3 was having with surveys. It also has some broader changes for everyone pertaining to how discussion boards within the app are laid out so, even if you're not on 10.3 you should still update the app. You can now view the...

Newer BlackBerry Blend retail demo video found in OS 10.3.0.1052

Posted by Bla1ze on 21 Aug 2014 10:21 pm EDT

We've seen a couple BlackBerry Blend retail demo videos since the app started appearing long ago but another one has now been dug out of OS 10.3.0.1052. In fact, everything about that OS is technically Blend ready right down to the desktop component actually launching on Windows and Mac but it's still locked out because it doesn't fully download. No matter though, at least we have a new video...

BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983 shows off its front and backside

Posted by Bla1ze on 21 Aug 2014 9:39 pm EDT

While the BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983 makes its way through some certification processes, the latest BlackBerry 10.3 OS has given up just a few more goodies about the device as well. Previously we saw what can only be referred to as placeholder images in the OS but now that the device has progressed a bit more, there's now official renders taking those spots. Of course, it's hard to say...

Hands-on with BlackBerry Assistant

Posted by Bla1ze on 21 Aug 2014 4:12 pm EDT

As most CrackBerry readers know by now, BlackBerry has introduced their BlackBerry Assistant app and a lot of folks are looking forward to actually using it. That said, aside from some early demos of it the app itself has never really been shown off, even in some of the BlackBerry Passport leaks. So with BlackBerry OS 10.3.0.1052 having now popped up and offering a mostly function version of...
