Best way to swap BBs with wife? (Technical Q)
- I have a 9700. Wife has an 8900. We are on T Mobile. She hates her phone. I don't want to upgrade the 8900 until the 9780 or 9800 comes out. SO, I want to switch phones with her.
On the technical side, I know I need to do a backup on both phones and then wipe them, then switch sim cards. But what about apps? What about BBM, that keys off the phone, not the sim, right? What else am I missing?

Applications: If you purchased your apps from the Appworld then I believe your apps are associated with your Appworld Account. So when you switch over to the new phone, just log in and you can re download/activate your apps.08-28-10 10:00 AMLike 0 -
