    Well we all know the updates don't bring anything visible and earth shattering (surely not android 7 in march) but still it's quite unusual for BlackBerry to not release it till 10th mann!!

    The March patch has been rolling out to the DTEKs for two days now (since the 8th).

    So maybe they only care about TCL-built devices from this point onwards... lol.

    Well if you actually use the words "hope not" , your faith in BlackBerry is already shaken, so you've already jumped the fence.

    My faith in BB has been a little wobbly for a few years now. I've hopped the fence several times. Currently on BB's side, they have gone over a year providing timely security updates.

    And only to start slipping again right before their big relaunch moment.

    Frustrating like watching them running a hurdling race crossing all the hurdles beautifully, only to trip on their own shoelace right at the finish.

    Be very careful sometimes those pickets can be pointy and sharp.

    I once did a kick turn on cross-country skis over a fence - it was not a pretty sight!

    I was checking BlackBerry Hub in the play store. They have got 500k downloads. Lets assume that there will be some non BlackBerry android phones too that would have downloaded hub - how much? is anybody guess.

    There are 2 points i would like to mention here -

    a) the Priv, DTEK 50 and DTEK 60 have all put together have sold less than half a million phones worldwide for sure!! That's terrible mann!!

    b) second and the larger point is that despite hub being such a fantastic productive tool, still there has been very few takers. So barring a few of us in cb, world has moved on and doesnt view BlackBerry as something to get associated with anymore even in its software avatar. Their faith on BlackBerry has surely gone! else we would seen much higher than half a million downloads

    ...Food for thought!!

    Just received it (Beta Tester). I believe BlackBerry won't push the update to you unless all your Hub+ apps have been updated. I got the os update immediately after all my Hub+ apps completed their updates. Update is 142.1 MB.

    ShopBB version (Beta).

    Is this on or off the beta program?

    And check back with whichever build version it is once it's installed.

    Yeah I'm a Beta OS tester (but not for the Hub+ Beta tester group). But lately, I'm not sure the beta testers are receiving it any earlier than the non-beta types. This was certainly the case for the February update (got it later than the non-beta types). Could be wrong for this round though.

    Just got it after updating the last round of BlackBerry apps. Downloading now. Thought something might be up since all the updates.

    Not bad.

    That's all models within 5 days.

    Meanwhile many Pixels and Nexus phones are still waiting.

    3 models versus 5+.

    Not to mention the 3 combined volume is like one model of Nexus/Pixel.

    Did you jot down the exact time you downloaded and installed it? Enquiring minds want to know. It doesn't matter whether you mind or not.
