    Hi. I have a Z10 on Verizon which I purchased because I couldn't wait for the Q10 to replace my 9930, which was working great. I'm thinking of getting a Q on my family plan under a new phone number and making that my primary phone.

    1) I assume all my Z10 data will sync over to the Q10 if I do a restore from my Z10 backup file?
    2) I assume if I purchase another license of the apps I have on my Z, and install them on the Q10, the data for those apps will also sync over if I do a restore? (e.g. Slicktasks, Moneyplus, etc.)

    Thanks!

    1.- If the Z is on a higher software version, then there is going to he some trouble. If not, then it's cool.

    2.- Don't purchase another license! You keep the existing ones.

    Thanks for your replies.

    So I can keep the same licenses so long as I keep the same BBM ID, which I plan to.

    What kind of problems will I run into if the Z10 OS is higher than the Q10 OS? I was thinking of upgrading my Z OS in the meantime to 10.2.

    Thanks again.

    OP: you probably are already aware of this, but the selection of apps for the Q is less than the Z. So you may find that some of the apps you have on the Z are not available on the Q.

    I have both the Q and the Z. I restore data back and forth (both on same os version). I keep the same BBID on both. I swap my sim back and forth, but here lately it's been all Q all the time. Go for it OP!!!

    Hey, FrankIAm and Kris and other BB dudes!

    What about my memory card? I have it encrypted and am wondering if in the beginning, I can just pop it out of the Z and use it with the Q...?

    It has music, pictures and MS Word, Powerpoint files, etc. It also has data assiciated with some apps I have on my Z, which I will download to the Q.

    I don't know if the encryption key carries over with the backup and restore, but you are better off decrypting it and then putting it on the Q.

    Decrypt first, if you don't that card is toast
