- Okay So I've been reading around in the forums and I've come up with the fact that the Sims are locked due to APN static settings and restrictions based on carrier sim. Tried different sims (different data plans entirely) and the APN is still locked with whatever the carrier pushed or maybe it's hardlocked to the code. Well that's what some guy on these forums said about the APNs, also that the Sims have a flag to lock these settings that is only adjustable by trying a different sim from the carrier (some said it worked on these forums but thats US based) and others said they had to wait for an OS upgrade.
Reffering to stitch's latest post - Someone on this thread recommended that when you are prepaid or something so, wait a few days after removing the BB plan and switch to the 4g data and this worked hence what I was thinking about 4G data only plans but this failed as I said above with the APNs, dont have a Prepaid Bmobile sim to test but it hardlocked (grey uneditable fields) on digicel prepaid sim.
Also I'm not seeing data again this morning after running the 10.1.0.2354 - will see if a battery pull works but I doubt it. Reviews so far, loving the progressive thread of bb os 10, but they need to pick up the pace to catchup to the others ...06-24-13 08:45 AMLike 0 - Okay So I've been reading around in the forums and I've come up with the fact that the Sims are locked due to APN static settings and restrictions based on carrier sim.

But the only way to get data on prepaid with that os is to get the $59 a week BIS plan plus an additional bb 4G plan. That is what I'm currently using...Romjo likes this.06-24-13 10:04 AMLike 1 - Yup well it seems there's no timeline on the 10.1 support on Bmobile (just spoke to a rep.. albeit it felt a bit robotic), I wont be paying for 2 sets of plans just to get 10.1 working on prepaid. I'm probably going to stick to post paid for now.
Felt like the rep was reading from a script, I asked her about the Q10 being on 10.1, she couldn't confirm...(it's released with 10.1) and as to why 10.1 doesn't work on the z10 but as always nothing definite. Hopefully I can get my hands on a Q10, maybe i'll visit the mall and check out the OS version on there or if anyone has it they can send it here idk if that'd help... also she said there's no difference in the Q10 or Z10 plans on their systems so it's either that the phone identifies itself as a Z10 on the network and therefore blocked (which makes sense) or there's something else i'm missing.
Hope that helps ...06-24-13 10:33 AMLike 0 - Yeah... that's right. The reps at bmobile tech centre doesn't know anything that's going on apparently.... and YES they do read from a script (instructions on a screen). From what I understand from someone I spoke to at bmobile about a month ago - that actually makes sense, is that they have to get the official os update from blackberry (which they probably have by now) and they also have to test the os on their network to make sure that it is stable. The Q10 and Z10 work on separate networks apparently?? As far as i'm concerned... once the Q10 is working on the 10.1 os (which it currently is) ... i see no reason why they take this long to release it for the Z10. It just makes no sense to me...06-24-13 11:27 AMLike 0
- the issue with Bmobile is that imagine in that whole company it is just about 2guys (tech staff) that deal with Bmobile Blackberry hence why they take so dang long to push out updates and even so long to run their tests on d system imagine when bmobile gets their testing BB10 units it goes into the hands of the mangers and who else ever Reps before it goes to the hands of the Techs who are the ones suppose to be testing the units, hence why digi always pushes out their updates in a timely manner and have no real issues. True trini mentality withing bmobile i not even bothering with their 10.1 update i ran the leak on my bmobile Z10 and also on my Z10 from bell and it is working good on the to handsets and running both on Bmobile network.
As i mentioned in a post earlier on i think Blackberry needs to take a firmer stand on Carriers cause with carriers like Bmobile all they are doing is just undermining the Blackberry brand with their foolishness06-24-13 12:58 PMLike 0 - the issue with Bmobile is that imagine in that whole company it is just about 2guys (tech staff) that deal with Bmobile Blackberry hence why they take so dang long to push out updates and even so long to run their tests on d system imagine when bmobile gets their testing BB10 units it goes into the hands of the mangers and who else ever Reps before it goes to the hands of the Techs who are the ones suppose to be testing the units, hence why digi always pushes out their updates in a timely manner and have no real issues.

You would just have to resend and resend until it finally sends... which it will eventually... There is the rare occasion when you press send once and it immediately gets sent. (very off chance tho)... lol06-24-13 03:14 PMLike 0

you are not going to pay for two different plans. The Z10 plan for prepaid is "designed this way" as stated by a bmobile rep...apparently they don't know how to add new policies to the system...smh06-24-13 04:22 PMLike 0 -

our account manager from TSTT told an employee that her "number dropped off the "system" "
and "this is normal because the back end shows everything is fine"
i asked what exactly does "drop off the system" means and he couldn't answer.
so i guess yours dropped off too. LOL
i'm beginning to think about switching to Digicel for my Z10 but the change in number is the hard part. TSTT has no priority on their customers. I'm going to post a link to this thread in that dotish "Tash MCFash" bs fb page

They dunno what to tell her. Talking lal bout that's the problem with bringing in phones n it prob won't work on their network. These clowns don't even know which handset they pushing. B mobile's incompetence never ceases to amaze
