This is happening on the 9700? Try a device wipe and restore its a beta firmware issue I faced the same thing sometime back. But I thought the firmware on the 9700 was stable.

I was thinking about the same thing what to do about the plan thing. Its mandatory to select a plan even if you pay retail.

I feel the same way. Am thinking about the white bold now

There is no 20$ month plan commitment, just walk into the Tmobile store and pick it up outright. There is no activation/sim purchase required or attached to it.

@Sahil - Are u sure about this. My friend went to the store today and they said you would need a 99USD prepaid sim. So the total cost is 550USD.

Please confirm if it can be bought off the shelf without a plan. Any suggestions on where to get the nest deal in manhattan.
R.P.M is online now

So I got myself a BB again after a 2 year hiatus to Nokia. 8520. But I find myself at the not knowing much apart from email end of things.

So what is the TeamBhp group? And where does the barcode scanner thing happen? Or is the 8520 too poverty spec to have that! But isnt a barcoder scanner a camera function with software?

Explanations will be appreciated!

EVO : barcode scanner is a part of the BB messenger 5.0. If you have the 5.0 messenger then u can scan this code and join the group without typing anything. if not then first get the Bb messenger 5.0.

cheers

No, it will be 400$ .I paid 450$ before taxes for it. But offer is probably over now.

I have app world but there is no shazam on it. I checked on the shazam website its said that it's available only for USA,CAN,UK etc not for India.
Were you able to download it? This same problem happened on the iPhone but I went to iTunes and put my country as USA to get the app.

@aZa - I just checked FB and it said there is no new updates ?

Hello Guys,

I want to use Airtel mobile office on my Blackberry, instead of using Blackberry services.

Can somebody please help me out, what changes I have to make in settings.

Thanks in advance.

PS ::: I already have a unlimited data plan ( Airtel mobile office )

My friend walked into a Tmobile store, asked for the phone outright, paid 485$ inclusive of tax. Walked out. No sim card, no plan.

Can't seem to find shazam, i even searched for it in the app store. Even tried changing my time zone to america to see if the app store changes to US.
