Hi everyone,
I'm the proud user of a BlackBerry z30, and there is something that I doesn't understand...
Why don't I get update as soon as they come out on my Carrier/Sim Unlocked phone ? As I didn't get my phone with a contract from my Carrier I shouldn't be dependent of him but of BlackBerry for the updates, don't I ?

Hi, updates are carrier approved which means that if your phone is unlocked, you can have the update immediately by putting a sim in your phone from a carrier that has approved it first. Nobody knows why it has to be this way.

I don't understand why blackberry phones need carrier approval when Android phones doesn't ^^'...
Another question was in my mind lol, is there a way to register our PIN somewhere on BlackBerry website to be a BB10 "Beta Tester" ? , I remember that I did that for my PlayBook...

Yes, I believe so. I'm on the beta zone as are many others. I haven't been asked to test a whole OS though, just certain apps and of course BlackBerry Channels.

Beta zone is not available in Greece sadly :-(

OP, BlackBerry is not Android so it not usual for their protocols to be different.
Android updates require carrier approval. Whoever told you they don't gave you misinformation.
