- The only thing I was looking for were my two old soundboard apps that I used for my notifications. They had been on my phone for years and apparently Google is cracking down on the soundboard programs or something (or so I'm told). Oh well - I'm assuming I could probably just put .mp3 files on the Blackberry and have them set for notifications?10-15-16 05:12 PMLike 0

Sorry for the waffle...point of the matter is, the Classic is clean of Cobalt's system. So I'ma try from the start. Do have one question - early on, when BB10 first came out, and 10.1 was being developed into 10.2, I noticed a distinct different OS evolutionary lines - the ones w 4 digits at the end, and the ones w 3. Case in point, Classic's on 10.3.2.2813, and the Q10's on10.3.2.858. Is there really like two "strains" of BB10? What's the diff?
I'll start loading up Cobalt's package tmrw and report back.

It starts at 1, and doesn't stop counting up, till the next minor revision is developed. In our case, 10.3.3 is the next minor revision, representing a more significant change than mere refinement, but not significant enough to warrant 10.4. It's similar to the Dewey Decimal System used in libraries, with regard to numbering practices.

There appears to have been, since 10.2.x leaks began in 2013, two distinct development tracks, one which ended in 3 digits, and the other in four, after the 10.2.x./10.3.y. I was wondering what the difference between the 7-digit OS's and the 8-digit variants, like different strains
SQN100-2 | 10.3.2.85810-16-16 03:54 PMLike 0 - Hello
Thank you for this effort to ensure continued relevance of BB10 post 2016. I am afraid, the Patcher (1.6) does not seem to work correctly when patching Whatsapp.
I have added the original Whatsapp to the whitelist, as prescribed. It shows in the refreshed white list.
I have applied the recommended patch, as indicated by the Patcher.
However, the patched PKS does not install. It reports that it cannot be installed.
My BB10 is 10.3.2.2836.
An attempt to uninstall original Whatsapp, before patching, seems to fail and kills the Google Services. I thought this only happened in 2876 http://forums.crackberry.com/blackbe.../#post12206982.
Advice will be appreciated, as I am sure this is probably the most patched Android app for the next month or two, before Whatsapp stops functioning on 31 Dec on BB10.
Initially, it seemed the older Android system would not start at boot and took a bit to start when one attempted to run an Android app (such as Amazon Player). But, eventually, the Android Player started and I could do proper uninstall of the original Whatsapp. Thereafter, the patched Whatsapp installed normally.
However, it will not setup properly. It launches and then asks for the telephone number, so that it may send a verification code (so far, so good). But, instead of sending the code, it pops up a complaint that there is something wrong with the app and when this is dismissed, returns to asking for a telephone number in an endless cycle. The original Whatsapp for Android does not do this, but complains that it depends upon Google Play services etc.
I am afraid, the spoof trick does not work with Whatsapp, Cobalt. This is a huge disappointment, because my entire effort with going for the Cobalt solution, was to be able to run Whatsapp off my BB10 Classic.Last edited by JP Barnard; 10-17-16 at 09:45 AM.

Think of it this way...
You are driving your car 99mph. You accelerate to 100. Is it a different strain of speed, or simply one more mph?10-16-16 11:19 PMLike 0 - There are not 2 strains. It began at 1, rose steadily to your Q's 858, kept on counting up, and eventually reached 2888 as the latest, highest official 10.3.2 OS release number. You can load it on both the Q and Classic. The links are found in the leak section, though it's really official. There hasn't been a true leak in around 2 years.

Yeah, I know recent "leaks" have been officially released elsewhere globally, and the US is always behind the updates are pushed through providers, with draconian procedures.

I tried to enable it, but not sure I did? Nothing indicates it is available. Perhaps there's a delay...

Start counting at 1. Keep counting and don't stop till you get to 2888. Then you are where we are now.
Once it's official, it's official. Maybe not specifically for every carrier, but that doesn't make it less official for BlackBerry, and in CrackBerry's eyes. Again, we're off topic.10-17-16 07:04 PMLike 0 -

Please help me out conite.

- I'll try this one last time, and if you still need clarification, PM me. We're way off topic.

Use m.uber.com.10-21-16 07:11 AMLike 0 - Conite, after realizing my patch was OK I went back and installed patched Google Maps.
The results are the same as I get in the map dependent apps... no streets show.
But, my favorites do show, which seems like the street "layer" isn't showing? Not sure what that tells me.
When I go into Google Maps in my browser all works fine?
Has to be some sort of issue with my device, but can't figure it out, sigh.
