Official 'I got my BlackBerry Passport Silver Edition' thread
- I was experiencing some "jiggling" when looking at text messages and occasionally emails with this ShopBlackBerry SE Passport ever since I got it a week ago.
I mentioned earlier--maybe it was another thread--that when I first got it, it was loaded with 10.3.2.2339, but that AT&T found something to update in the OS both via Link or OTA (I did it with Link)--it took a couple minutes to update, and it wasn't the media card driver. I have no idea how they could update 2339 on a new phone I hadn't touched.
Meanwhile, the jiggling continued. It wasn't the same as the flickering problem from way back in 10.3.1.
Today I reloaded, nondestructively, via Sachesi, the 10.3.2.2339 core OS and the 10.3.2.2340 radio bar files, and rebooted.
The jiggling /seems/ to have stopped, at least so far, and when I go to OS update in settings, it says I have the latest OS version.
A mystery. Anyone else experience this?08-16-15 06:15 PMLike 0 - Well my original unlocked passport had lte no problem so I made them use that one as it was on file already she tried to argue about how it could mess things up,i said look just humor me it's my phone my money my plan so of course she did I 'rebooted and bam...lte!heck I think if they entered any phone imei with lte from your account it would work

- Regarding the keyboard, right off the bat it feels like your well-seasoned keyboard after a year of use. It's perfect!

Better keyboard then the original one and better built quality.

Posted via CB1008-17-15 05:11 AMLike 0 - Can anybody tell me about the call quality and the signal strength of the new Silver Edition? Having gone through two defective Passports (bad call quality, regardless of the signal), I am now quite in doubt about getting the new one. For me, quality calls still are important in a phone, since a get a lot during a day. So, is it worth to get the new Silver one, based on call quality alone?08-17-15 05:27 AMLike 0
- Picked mine up yesterday and so far I love it.
Had the original PP and Classic before but the SE simply 'shines'

The is an issue with all phones if you have HD calls enabled or 4G for voice. With some carriers that really sucks and ought to be disabled on the phone.
You might have been ran into this.
FWIW

- Hello Everyone,
Well, I spent my first weekend with my new Passport SE. The battery seems to be experiencing similar performance of others just starting into it, and I'm definitely on the learning curve with the keyboard.
Beyond that I'm enjoying it a lot.
I had some issues with losing my Wi-Fi voice calling with T-mobile, because my signal was poor at my home, but we've resolved that.
Experiencing some issues with Amazon App store apps already, which is to be expected.
I was switching stuff over, and I looked back at my Z-10, and I was shocked at how tiny it looked in just minutes of using the passport.
KAM08-17-15 08:19 AMLike 0 - I know I am going to get yelled at for asking this but here it goes:
I ordered it from ShopCrackberry and just wondering when to expect a shipped email. Hopefully within this month! I ordered it from ShopCB because I need it go to a FlexDelivery address and I really do not like Digital River. Anyway hope you guys don't mind me asking if there is any insight here on when to expect it.
Thanks
Edit: The Shop status was updated, it will be shipped 'around Friday August 21'Last edited by lol3caring; 08-17-15 at 12:41 PM.

- My First Blackberry after a long time. Im absolutely loving it. Took some time to get used to the keyboard.
I love the screen for browsing, Multi-tasking and the touch sensitive keyboard.
Due to not using Blackberry for a long time I totally didn't expect the software to be this amazing though I miss many of my previous apps. Can someone help me download the must have apps for Blackberry (For starters). and Im not sure but I was told by the salesperson that i could install android apps from 1mobile store but i cant find it. How do you use that store and is it safe to use?
Any help regarding the apps would be appreciated.
My previous fone was a note 4. I Still use it side by side but i would prefer my blackberry if i could install all my apps like instagram, Snapchat And games on it.
The site has some instructions for how to get it on your device.
Between Snap and the Amazon app store, you shouldn't have any need for the 1mobile store.
It's a bit off topic but a few apps to take a look at and try out:
BlackBerry Blend
BeBuzz 10 Pro (extra notifications manager)
BeWeather 10 Pro
Blaq (third-party twitter client)
CascaRun PRO (activity tracker)
Evernote
FastTube (nice native YouTube client)
You can find all of those on the BlackBerry World directly. The rest of the Android stuff you'll find on either Amazon or Snap. I only mentioned apps that are universally useful, but other locale specific apps like postal service, banks, sports, etc are up to your location. Hope that helps.Syd90 likes this.08-17-15 01:38 PMLike 1 - I know I am going to get yelled at for asking this but here it goes:

For those that ordered early, shipping should start by the end of the week. ShopCB is really the last place to get the Bundle in the US or Canada (or another country, believe they ship to more than a few others), but if you are going to order I'd get it done. Once they have everything in stock the bundle promotion ends.
Love the new leather flip case, but with the phone at $550 on shopblackberry pre-tax and just the flip at $60, the bundle is the way to go if you plan on using the OEM accessories that come with it otherwise just pick up the device from BlackBerry. Hope that helps a bit. Talked to them a few times today.
