hi. im a sun BIS user. i dont experience that when browsing on OS6. and when i checked my service books, i have that Blackberry internet service 2.

do you know why it does it on smart/globe?

Hi, I have a friend with an existing line with Sun. She went to Sun Wireless center yesterday and applied for an add-on plan for BIS on her new berry. My question is, does it really need to be approved first? I mean, since this is just an add-on plan and she is an existing subscriber for like 2 years now? Did you experience the same thing? (the waiting for approval thingy before you get the BIS?) Thanks

I read about this one on Globe BlackBerry's FB page.

Yes it is cheaper, but it cannot be used simultaneously??? & from what I read there, BBM is not included in both (or is it?). So I think no matter how good the price is, it defeats the purpose of having a BlackBerry. Without push email & BBM & social networking apps & mobile browsing altogether, it's just an expensive paper weight.

here it is, you cannot have Email and FB at the same time. one bundle is

Email,BBM,IM's

the oter is

FB,BBM, IM's...

right now, im subscribed to MSG, and i can use my eal, bbm, ym, windows live, google talk, etc..

I guess points for Globe for doing this. But it's not sad man.. because really, who uses a broken down service? This kind of broken service isn't really new. Infact, most other south Asian carriers have exactly these kind of mini-plans. Now, this is where we get lucky - Philippines allows us full BIS usage. Other countries only have these mini plans for prepaid, not full BIS usage.

I am thankful this thanksgiving.

that's good to know... thanks!

I'm just wondering, if I subscribe to BB MSG, would I still be able to use the social feeds app on OS6? it integrates my BBM, YM, and Twitter posts. Anyone has an idea? I'm afraid to ask Globe CSR because I know exactly what they will say... ("sir upon checking, we dont have that information yet. i will make a note for support, please call us back after 24hrs)

[lew.angeles]

that im not sure coz im still on OS5. perhaps os6 allows social networking apps to work evenon BB MSG???

Hi, Did you checked on Sun where you asked for the activation of your BIS? I asked because my friend just told me that Sun Cellular texted her and that her BIS will be activated after 24 hours --- so that's tomorrow. I was thinkin' maybe you need to do some follow up, like, everyday to speed up the activation of your BIS. I hope this helps.

Hey guys! BB newbie here. I was wondering if anyone can shed some light on my problem --

- Bought a BB Torch last Nov 15 from a store in Greenhills (seems legit, came with a 1 year store warranty, and one of my friends got his BB Storm 2 from the same shop - no problems encountered).

- Activated the Globe BIS plan, which was working perfectly fine from Nov 15 until it suddenly conked out on Nov 23.

- The GPRS/EDGE and BB icon were still there (ergo, still activated) but now unable to make RIM-related apps work (can't log on to FB/YM using the FB/YM app, no non-wifi browsing, no push email, BBM won't work).

- Did countless battery pulls/SIM card removals to no avail.

- Finally went to a Globe Business Center, where the CSR told me that my BIS was still activated from Globe's standpoint but Blackberry itself (I guess what she meant was RIM) "blocked" my unit because it was "stolen" (Oh you should have seen her face when I said that I got my Torch from a store in Greenhills).

My phone was brand new, and if it was ever "stolen", then I shouldn't have been able to access all the BIS-fueled programs the first time I applied for it, right?

I'd really appreciate your insight. This is driving me nuts, since I can't maximize my BB's potential Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I need help with my 7130G. It was part of an IP group. I just want to disable the password settings. The phone would lock up every 2 minutes. And also, would it work with desktop manager 6? Will it's drivers work in win 7? And where can I find drivers for it? Thanks

for some reason, yes, it needs to be approved. but i got approved after a day. i went to a sun shop then signed something (i think it was a contract) then they activated my bis in like 14 hours..

[lew.angeles]

will SUN activate BIS even if the unit is not from them?

Yes, they will.

[lew.angeles]

nice.. Globe wont do that..

[lj_onyx24]

called Globe CSR again this morning, and got a word that BB MSG and BB SOCIAL can be used simultaneously. :nuts: ano ba talaga?? :nuts:

Hahahaha.... In Globe BB's facebook page, they said it cannot be used simultaneously. Their newspaper ad naman didn't say anything about using the plan together. So confusing!

Better if someone from this forum actually works as Globe's BlackBerry Specialist. Mas helpful mga tao dito kesa Globe CSRs eh.

[lew.angeles]

hahay, i called up again and yes, it cannot be used simultaneously..

[Cgcom83]

Pls help..
