Hello,
I live in Serbia and I am unable to update my playbook. What ever I do it always say that I have "latest currently software available" and whn I try that on PC with blackberry playbook software it says "No new blackbery OS software available".. does that have to to do something with my region? I dont know what else to do.. no matter what I do my OS version is 2.0.1.668. I got this tablet from one of ours IT magazines but they dont know what to do either. Due to this I am unable to use blackberry apps becouse here its still called Apps world and when I tap on it, it freeze.... I tried to reset it, puch all 3 buttons at the same time, turning off WiFI, turning off 3G, etc... dont know what else to do.. .. I even tried to fake my IP address so that tablet think I am from USA but no success... what can I do? please help.....
thank you...

Do you want to keep anything on it? I don't know why it wouldn't update over wifi even if it is a SIM enabled one. Have you tried doing a debrick? With DM open and the PB off, make sure it's off, plug in the PB and choose update and or repair. It will wipe everything on it though.

when I do it and when I tap update and then on repair it downloads the same OS I already have.....

There are many posts on this subject. Blackberry compounded the issue recently by offering these unlockedTE playbooks a bad App World update which screws them up even further .

thank you, who knows.... I have 3G model with 32GB not LTE... does that changes anything?
I wasn't aware that BB ever released a 3G model. Anyhow, I thought that OS updates for the cellular Playbooks were controlled by the carriers, not Blackberry.

well... I didnt get it by a carrier... I got it from one IT magazine and they got if from some store... :S
Believe Pacoman03 is correct about updates being controlled by carrier. Dont know if there is any setting you can change to get around this problem. An access to Blackberry information can be found in the Toolkit which has a section on the Playbook. In some instances deleting certain apps can help in updating.

Somebody released 3g+ models on the other side of the pond from Canada and they are useless in my opinion. Nobody seems to support them. No way will a Serbian, Russian or European SIM be in blackberry's approved carrier list. What were they thinking?, other than "must shift this inventory before someone realises I F***ed up a whole range of product"
