Done. Another big issue I'm dealing with is the inability to change my lock screen wallpaper. A poster on the forums told me it's because I have parental controls on. I do not hold the password to my parental controls, so basicly I can't change the wallpaper on my lock screen unless the controls are unlocked...I only have access to changing homescreen wallpaper.

I wish I can complain directly to BlackBerry about this somehow.

The phone app really sucks too. It's too hard to find a contact

Well, you can simply start typing out the contact name from the HomeScreen itself and the Universal Search does a reasonably good job in finding relevant matches. Not sure why anyone would have a tough time FINDING a contact. Give it a shot. Try typing it out from the HomeScreen itself.

Some contacts are found by a search some are not...I'm finding it have to do with the fact that if they are favorites they will not show up at all by a search.

Mine seem to show up just fine. Favourite or not.
Sure you have the options in Universal Search Settings enabled to include contacts? (not a very smart question, but hey... you never know)

Take a look at this post (and the thread)... AND the screenshots.

Hope it can help:

Ok now I'm really getting fed up. I went into my text app to compose a message, the contact who I added to a favorite won't show up when I type in his name..and his thread isn't in the text list either

All my contacts that I added to favorites got deleted. Now there are just numbers displayed by the favorite icons

Considering there were a bunch of things you needed to figure out... I would say there is a high chance that there is something wrong with the way you have configured your contacts (a possibility... Also possible it could be the OS / Device acting up).

You could give a restart / reset a shot.

I would suggest sorting the contacts issue first. In my experience - A clean import of your contacts would help (once you have deleted all in the phone already). Might take a while, but it is better to have the base sorted out before you attempt to resolve/identify/fix/workaround the other issues.

And seriously mate... try to tone down the complaints. ASK for help if you need help. Most of the times, the issue just MAY BE user error.
Even if it is a device or OS issue - if you could just tone down your complaint(s) (and boy do you have a few!) and word it properly - somebody just may be willing to offer a workable suggestion.

Let me stop right here: I don�t subscribe to the argument that BB10 is new and, therefore, should be given some time to mature. BB10 didn�t land in a market that�s new. BB10 landed in a market that is already well established. Further, BlackBerry is attempting to redefine itself, and to leave out legacy features seems counter to this movement..

Thanks for reading and sorry for the long post.

First off - excellent review and dead-on, mirroring much of my own concerns.

Your statement above is a refreshing view, and also dead-on! We need the very same features that kept us loyal, and in omitting them, BlackBerry has caused many doubts, at least on my part.

Thanks again for an awesome review

After you have added 3, go to Contacts Tab on your phone app. And then scroll to the NEXT contact you want to mark as favourite. When THAT contact is reached - LONG PRESS (on THAT contact). A side menu should open (on the right side). Tap on STAR icon.
Another row of Favourites will be created

Something else to note about the speed dials, is that you can quickly access multiple numbers for any one speed dial by touching and holding the speed dial icon (picture). A menu will pop up that will allow you to quickly access any of that contact's numbers (home, work, mobile, etc.) so any one person only needs to be on the speed dial list once (not one for home, one for mobile, etc.)
