Still no homescreen one-button speed dialing on Q10 in 10.2... WTF?
- That's exactly what I'm implying. BB10 was built from scratch. It's just like if a whole city is destroyed by a fire (like was Chicago). At first when it is being rebuilt it WILL NOT have all the same things the old city had, but eventually most stuff will make it back. However, things like hitching posts will not make it back because they're obsolete, and some things like the huge fancy mansions or the skyscrapers will just take a lot longer because they're not necessity and take a long time to build, but they'll still come.
In my analogy, the hitching posts are the trackpad. Despite what people may think, right now they are becoming obsolete and have no place on a phone. There will always be those people who prefer horse and carriage, but cars are the future. Similarly, all the details like you like to complain about just take a little longer to build, but they'll still be built--they just have a smaller priority. You build the sewer system before you paint the lines on the road.

Also, I think sometimes their staff reads their facebook page. I think I'm going to post on there too...10-30-13 12:22 AMLike 0
- Pete The PenguinResident CrackBerry WizardExactly. Press "1" from the BB10 home screen and I get a capital 'W' in universal search.

- Pete The PenguinResident CrackBerry WizardI do understand and commiserate with you slagman - the 9900 was awesome and had some amazing features that BB10 does not have. Why you say? Well my thought is they brought in an entirely different tech team to create BB10 and those people obviously did not talk to the other Legacy Techs. WHY I really don't know - it seems like common sense to us regular folk but that's what we got. Still I would not go back to my 9900 now - love my Q10 too much.

Do you guys know why BB10 lags behind BBOS?
When RIM bought QNX, Mike L didn't integrate the OS Dev teams so you had a bunch of QNX Devs coding an OS (BB10) without understanding what makes BBOS great.
The QNX guys had no love for BBOS unless they owned a Legacy BlackBerry.10-30-13 12:40 AMLike 0 - Pete The PenguinResident CrackBerry WizardReally? Tea doesn't come from China, it mainly comes from India. And the prices are fluctuating.anon(4077577) likes this.10-30-13 12:43 AMLike 1

You know it is, the issue is not that the OS is built from scratch, these are conscious decisions made by the development team to not include these features. That's why it doesn't matter that the OS is new, they still should have in mind the features that make the keyboard phone a productive phone and they chose not to implement them. If long-press speed dialing works within the phone app, it can work outside of it, this was a design choice. There's nothing magical about the phone app, despite it looking like it's closed from the active frame, it's part of the phone, it's always running...

Posted via CB1010-30-13 07:44 AMLike 0 - I just got my Q10 yesterday - I gave up my torch for this? What a piece of crap. The biggest thing is no one key speed dialing unless you are in the phone dial pad screen - kind of defeats the whole purpose of having it in the first place. This is a feature I used like 10 times a DAY! Why would they destroy this awesome feature.
And they also made programing it a nightmare as well - used to be easy and so quick!
After 24 hours with the Q10, I am seriously thinking I need to go to a Bold 9900 - this I believe is RIM at its Zenith. They will never fix the Q10 as they are now up for sale and don't care anymore10-30-13 08:17 AMLike 0 - Pete The PenguinResident CrackBerry WizardI just got my Q10 yesterday - I gave up my torch for this?

What are they hoping to accomplish? The people that have figured out all the features the Q10 has that work for them, are not going to read your complaints and change their mind.
Doing the same thing OVER and OVER and expecting a different result is the definition of insane.
Expecting that your constant rants are going to impact BB is insane. Join the Beta Zone or post to BB's twitter.
I think everyone would like speed dial from the homescreen and it's been announced that it is coming. If that is not good enough, activate your BBOS device in the meantime. it's not complicated.10-30-13 10:15 AMLike 0 -
- If you've ever used a Bold you'd know why it is a problem. This convenience tool just like so many others that were left off of BB10 are the reasons why so many BB users aren't able to rave about BB10. Why BBRY can't understand this is a tragedy not so much for the users but for BBRY. Imagine if they had 2, 3, 4 or 5 million rabid BB ambassadors out there selling people how great BB10 is and how wonderful an upgrade it is over BBOS/Bold? No amount of marketing spend can replace that type of buzz and word of mouth promotion.slagman5 likes this.10-30-13 11:26 AMLike 1

- I am SO tired of this argument! Changing to a new OS should not mean that BB forgets everything they learned from development of the old OS. Technology development is incremental (except with BB, it seems).anon(5828343) and slagman5 like this.10-30-13 02:11 PMLike 2
