First time Crackberry Owner/Operator!
Ok guys, I upgraded from an LG Dare to a BB 8330 Curve last night. I had already watched some youtube tutorials and had a good idea how to use the device. I am sure I will be doing some searches on here and also asking more questions on this thread though.
First impression: LOVE this thing! No wonder they call them a CRACKberry. I can't put it down.
First APP download: Blackberry APP World -only so that I could download the next one.... Beiks keyboard locker. My Dare phone would automatically lock after some time of inactivity. i downloaded this free app and it even let me choose the time before it locks the keypad. downside of this was that i had no idea where to find it to launch it and use it. i had to poke around for awhile before i could find it and launch it. i managed to get it done and it works perfect.
First question: are there any sites or spots on the forum that are good for free apps and SAFE to use? Also -any you would make sure to steer clear of?
Second question: is there any way to change the way you unlock the phone? perhaps with a single button, or two that are more ergonomic to the phone? i have no problem reaching the * button, or the "talk" button, but when operating the phone with one hand, i would think there would be a more ergonomic setup for that. -just wondering?????
Thanks for any help. and by the way guys, don't take this the wrong way, but while i might be new to BB, i am not new to forums and search features. If i wasted your time writing this -my bad. If YOU wasted your time reading it -YOUR bad. don't waste more by flaming me for dumb questions. just move on. I did searches and found answers on several topics already, but sometimes the results are broad and overwhelming in number.
Thanks for the help and support.
