BB Pearl 8110 Questions
- Be gentle please, first post, first blackberry!
OK got an 8110 pearl on t-mobile (UK) at the weekend, plan is flext 40 with mobile email on blackberry and web and walk.
As far as I can tell the OS is 4.3.0.104 (Platform 2.6.0.59)
Have been playing with my new toy since I got it and have the following queries on certain applications, hope someone can help, calls to t-mobile and RIM have proved fruitless at the moment.
Blackberry Maps
It has Blackberry maps loaded. Have tried using this but get a grey striped screen and the message "Your device is not configured for BIS or BES access consult your wireless service provider or system administrator"
Am I incorrectly assuming that it is configured for BIS via the t-mobile site
Does this mean that T-mobile do not support this and it will not work on this contract? I know t-mobile promote telenav and that works, but seems mighty slow at the moment. From what i`ve researched certain carriers have blocked access is this the same with t-mobile? service book is showing the following;
record type /active
name/blackberry maps eu
uid/lbs
cid/lbsconfig
userid/-1
dsid/ blank
gatewayip/ //206.51.26.1.92:19031;19030/blackberry.netIgpak
description/ blackberry maps
Although I am trialling telenav, would like to trial this, if it is not supported is it safe to uninstall to free up memory?
Google Maps
Downloaded this as an option as couldn't get BBMaps to work. keep getting an error message telling me that I do not have a data plan and certain blackberry models need to be reconfigured! Any clues on this please. Web and Walk is the data plan
Micro sd card size
Have been given different views on this, t-mobile say that max acceptable is 2gb, but have read elsewhere and on here that 4gb will work. Can anyone advise please
Beaming contacts over bluetooth
Is there any way of beaming contacts/ vcards with bluetooth to non blackberry users? and vice versa? This seems to be the only device that I can't do it with unless I send as an attatchment via email.
That's all I can think of at the moment, any advise greatly appreciated
Many Thanks

As to the other questions, I'm not quite sure. Haven't really looked into those features. I believe that 4.3 is supposed to support up to an 8Gig micro SD card, but I could be wrong. Hope this helps!

For anyone else that gets a "not configured for BES or BIS" error message you need to ensure and insist that your carrier has provisioned your account correctly with your correct data plan! this was the problem with mine and was easily resolved
