Let me just preface this- I do not want non-answers, no "why go through all of that?", or "just get an android/iphone", etc. I just want to know from a pure technical standpoint whether it can be done, ok? I know I'm fighting a losing battle, but blackberries are literally the only phone/os I can tolerate and I hate iphone and android and touch keyboards. Really I'm just biding time until kaios gets a little better and a decent kai os flip phone/qwerty phone comes out. Thank you!
I recently got myself a blackberry style and got it activated on sprint, I've always wanted one and was in the market for a new phone so I thought why not. It activated fine and the phones working good but BIS only works over WIFI. A sprint agent confirmed that BIS is no longer offered by sprint, and it will have to be over wifi. That really bums me out, and I know there's ways around that, but me begin an
avid homelabber came up with another solution. In theory, could I just run my own BES 5(or would another version work too? OR BES Express?) server on my own servers and just enroll my style to it? Would I need any special data plan for that or would my current Unlimited Kickstartv2 plan work with it? I already run my own exchange server and the infrastructure to support it, so it's not much trouble.
I'm very curious if this is doable or not, plus i'm always game for learning something new!
