    I am sry for posting this question in this section but people rarely browse the legacy os section so i am posting my question here.
    I want to but a bold 9900 and want to use it on normal data plan by changing the apn settings, but just want to know which apps wil not going to work on normal data plan?
    I am sure many of the people here had used a legacy os phone before so i am asking in this section.
    Thanks

    It's been awhile, but as I recall the old BBOS won't work on a normal plan, but other devices will work on a BB plan.

    The Bold 9900 (and other legacy BlackBerry devices) will always work best with a BIS (or BES) plan. It is however possible to run the handset without BIS and if you're considering that option you might have a look at the following CB thread: http://forums.crackberry.com/tips-ho...ut-bis-996682/

    You should also not worry about posting in the BB OS7 / Bold 9900 forums, there are still plenty of users of legacy devices who continue to contribute to those forums.

    Thanks for ur help but i dropped the idea of getting a bold, now i am thinking about classic. It is better than bold 9900 i think and it work on normal data plan also. So going for a black classic.
