You can bet that the versions on ios will be completely different than say the version of the Twitter app on the Blackberry 9900, right?

Setup was pretty smooth except for adding gmail into mix , it took a couple hours figuring that out.
Tmoible did away with AWS hspa+ 4G in my area so I'm stuck with EDGE.
EDGE call quality reminds me of 8330 Sprint days.....not so great but works.
Text message & picture attachments working.
New BB email address set up.
Pandora , tuninRadio & browsing speeds fast data loadups not so bad.
All in all I love device, I will sim swap every so often with GS7.Last edited by Slingbox; 03-23-17 at 11:04 AM.

I use that combo for large screen presentations thru PB's hdmi thanks to 9900's trackpad. I also use Classic thru Miracast but 9900/PB-hdmi still works better for some things. Trackpad tames giant screens as nicely as it tames tiny screens.

I know right, people like to talk and diss the browser speed but really it's not so bad. If I just do a general Google search for something it's pretty efficient for me anyway. And it's actually faster than my old ageing iPhone 5c.03-23-17 04:19 PMLike 0 -
I often find myself multitasking on one device and then I want to do something on the other device so I don't always want them on the same page.
But I could certainly understand why it would be nice to have this or why others would need it also.03-23-17 04:23 PMLike 0 -
It would be nice if we could enter alternative user-agent strings for the browser. It helps a lot to be able to mimic the iphone browser on other old devices. But I've never seen any suggestion that it's possible to alter the string for the BB7 browser.03-23-17 08:42 PMLike 0 -
Too bad about T-Mo -- that's one of the things I like about AT&T: In addition to free BIS, I get 4G on my Bold.

As for strings, the only ones I know about are on my shoelaces. That's all above my pay grade ;-)03-23-17 10:42 PMLike 0 - Well, after deciding against the Classic, I was surfing the newly listed BlackBerries on eBay, and came across a Passport SE, in nice condition, for CAD $210 shipped. I couldn't resist. So.... I guess I'll finally get to play with a Passport.... Should be here in about a week.03-23-17 10:45 PMLike 0
- The user agent string identifies your browser to the server you're accessing. If the server thinks you have an iPhone, it often serves a lighter, well-optimized, mobile-friendly page.anon(9721108) likes this.03-23-17 10:48 PMLike 1

- Several recent auctions on eBay have ended up at the $100-$110 plus shipping range. So that's neither bad nor great. If the phone was in really good condition, it would be reasonable.anon(9721108) likes this.03-23-17 11:34 PMLike 1
- Yeah, I've used BlackBerry Bridge several times now w/ my 9900. It works great! I was debating getting a 64 gig PlayBook to use with it, but so far my 16/32 gig models are working fine. LOL. When I upgraded from the Q10 to the Classic, I hated that didn't have the HDMI port. I actually used my Q10 for several presentations back in the day. When my keyboard died the other night @ work, I did a sim swap back over to the Classic for almost 24 hours. I also quickly realized how much I miss Blend. ;-) Take care.

Blend is another great concept...03-24-17 01:11 AMLike 0 -
My Classics constantly complain of overheating while on Qi but it's a must have, imo.03-24-17 01:49 AMLike 0 - I'd be sure it has Qi charging. Imo. Sort of substitute for our 99's charging contacts. Since the embedded battery Classic must use the phone as a battery charger, Qi is the only alternative to usb charging... if the particular Classic has it. Models SQC100-2, 3 and 5 have it, afaik.

Pretty neat, since there's nothing to get dirty. Generates some heat, tho. Since you can't remove Classic, Passport or Z30 battery, it provides some charging redundancy. Essential enough to pay a little more for handsets that include it. Imo.03-24-17 05:13 AMLike 0 -
Anyway, Event Sounds has been a pleasant new thing for this trip. I did not wait for the pod to arrive and it has still been great. On top of the nice sound notification when connect to charging and fully charge, the phone gives the same nice sounds when turning on and off. I have auto on-off set up for the night so when the phone turn off, I would know that it is time for bed.
Thanks Ralph. It was a great tip.
