- i got the 9900 on saturday and was really looking forward to it, yet i go on app store and loads of apps are unavailable to my device. it really annoys me as some of them are basic such as soundboards and other funny stuff and other things like bbc iplayer. i also cant get my banking on it, i thought this was the best blackberry on the market? i rang up blackberry and they said i needed to pay $49 for technical help, so i came on here. Have i wasted my time?09-13-11 02:31 PMLike 0

Even Dropbox have JUST [well, about a week and a half ago] released their software, albeit it is NOT in the App World yet. Don't worry, they'll all update to OS7, eventually.

I made a list of my 3rd party apps and looked them up, if they were made compatible they are now on my device and when the ones that are made OS 7 compatible I will install them.
It is not a big deal and you should have known this going in, hang in there andenjoy the new device you have at least learning it which when you add the OS 7 compatible apps you will know how to use them and the UI on all of them will most likely look better also just like the newly added app world 3.0.09-13-11 05:14 PMLike 0 - Download BBSAK - you'll find it via Google - and use it to back up the apps on your old BB device. Then use BBSAK to add the cod files for the apps you really want to have onto your new device. Even though they aren't technically designed for the 9900, at least 70% of them will work fine. You can just delete the ones that don't easily from your 9900. When the formal updates for OS7 come along, just download them from App World and the old versions will automatically be removed. Meanwhile you'll be able to use most of the apps that you want and which are supposedly not available for your new device.09-13-11 05:47 PMLike 0
