Ok.....with the new bridge update ATT blocked my bridge browser until I buy a tethering plan.........Knew it was probably coming but annoyed none the less especially when paying an extra $45 for the Blackberry Enterprise service.
Here is my question.......my ATT plan expires next month. Are any other carriers charging tethering charges for using the Bridge browser?
Anyone know of a workaround?
That is for when the fix the bridge problem in 1.07.
Don't know the how behind it but when i try to open the Bridge browser a screen pops up telling me to call ATT to have tethering added to my account. Been with them forever.....this is the final straw.
again the big question is where did you get the update from? Did you download it from appworld or did you download it from the OTA on crackberry? With ATT you'd be better off never downloading it from appworld until we know for sure that they can block bridge browser no matter where you download Blackberry Bridge. I wonder, if you did download it from appworld, if you uninstalled it, rebooted, and installed the CB OTA version. Would bridge browser work or is the damage already done?
I agree it should not matter but it does. If you download from app world bridge browser is disabled. I would switch if I could get my unlimited international plan with someone else. I think as of now only att blocks the bridge browser.

Tmobile has an unlimited international plan and only $20 per month. I'm probably switching to them from Sprint when the new berries come out.
i originally downloaded Bridge from Appworld, and Browser was blocked by AT&T. I deleted bridge and downloaded OTA version from a CB forum, and browser is working fully. So far, AT&T can't do a permanent block it appears.

Are you sure (as in 100%) that you clicked on the Bridge Browser, and you got a message about having to buy a tethering plan? Last time i checked the tethering message pops up when I try to enable / setup the Internet Tethering.
And when you did, you had your AT&T BB phone Bridged into your Playbook?
What's your setup? Phone, Provider, Version, PB version as well, please.
already shopping for my new bb phone on the verizon site. I'm done with ATT.
Why would you buy a device now, when the 99xx is just months away? Just download the ota and be done with it. I'm with at&t and have no issues using the newest bridge (ota) and OS 1.0.7 on the PB
