    Hello.
    I have a problem with my Blackberry device. I'm from an Asian country which isn't supported by Blackberry. I want to set up my device using wi-fi connection but my country name doesn't exist in its set up. By the way, I don't know how to use http proxy nor where to get one. I really need some help! And please if you can help, explain it in the most easiest way please!

    Hi !
    I presume you're talking about the license display you have just after the network setting ?
    Is there any country (read: language) you can understand that is listed or you don't have any ?
    In the positive, take any you can read, it doesn't really matter. You will be able later to change language input and so on.

    I meant my COUNTRY as the exact meaning but not LANGUAGE! Look the problem is that my COUNTRY(!) is not supported by Blackberry so, I need some assistance like http proxy or something. The bigger problem is i don't know any safe place to get an http proxy. I mostly need some help for that. By the way, sorry for saying things unclear

    No problem and Welcome to the community; now I have a name to welcome you, MSK_13 !
    Well, what I would suggest is that
    1/ You try to search for already existing threads in the forums (some links below may help for proxy) and add some questions if you don't have all you need. You might find this, for example http://forums.crackberry.com/blackbe...-proxy-925654/ (where to find a proxy server)

    2/ You clearly explain wat your problem(s) is/are with your settings within the playbook OS section of the forums: try to be as specific as possible within your post title (ex : "what proxy for my PB in [your country here] ?")
    Here's the link : BlackBerry PlayBook OS - BlackBerry Forums at CrackBerry.com
    Then, smart guys will come and help you, please remember we're all friendly vonlonteers here

    Hope it helps,
    Cheers

    Hi again
    Please accept my special thanks for your suggestions And your warm welcome!
    Well as I expected, I couldn't solve my problem. By the way, let me explain the whole story.
    I have a relative in Canada and I'm from Iran. He has sent this PB for me as a gift. As you know and as I said, BB doesn't support Iran because of sanctions. So, I went to a BB-service shop to install some programs on it. Unfortunately, it cost so much (really much!) and I decided to do something by myself. Then, I downloaded BB desktop software to do so but, the program came up with an error saying that I have to update my device AND afterwards, Oh no... I couldn't (and still can't) use the device just because I'm from Iran .
    I think I told the story well enough (at least for myself!). By the way, sorry for grammatical issues, you know!
    Best Wishes

    OK, I get a clearer picture now.
    What I get from here is the following :

    1/ you probably have network constraints due to your country regulations and this applies to both your desktop and your smartphone.

    2/ the upgrade process failed (probably due to 1)

    I believe there are workarounds for that but we'll probably need some extra help here.

    1/ set up a proxy you can address in your country
    2/ use an autoloader to update your playbook.

    I'd suggest you copy/paste these few comments and create an entry in the general discussion section (more international exposure). You'll probably be more successful with a title like : "help for proxy settings in Iran"

    Give it a try and please add the link to this new thread below !
    Cheers
