Picked up a free Q5 today

Someone is selling a Q5 for $20 on Craigslist and I drove out to his place to pick it up during lunch today. Instead of $20, he gave it to me for free because there was an error bb10-0015. He told me that I just need to reload the phone with with OS.

Got home, downloaded and installed Blackberry Link to reload OS10. Took me 2 try and the Q5 is alive again. Inserted the SIM card and it worked. Just finished setting up the phone with my work email and I am going to use it as my work phone for the next few weeks. If it doesn't work out, I am going to back to the DTEK 50.Attachment 440804

Thanks. I have been back using a PKB since I got a Keyone in August and I have been thinking about a BB10 keyboard device a month after that. As weird as it sounds, I like the Q5 keyboard, even it is noisy.

It's a cool little phone & I always loved that keyboard, nice wallpaper by the way.

Yep... I like that clicky Q5 keyboard over the Q10 keyboard.
