How do you update blackberry messenger for the blackberry curve?

A. you have to make sure you have the latest OS for your blackberry device in order for the new BBM to work

How do I enable blackberry services on a foreign blackberry?
Q. I have someone coming over from abroad(Pakistan) with a Blackberry. I live in the US and am wondering how she can get blackberry services on her phone. The phone uses sim cards. Would she need to get a plan with a company like T- Mobile? Maybe the prepaid plans, since she is the US for a month. Thanks.

A. If she turns off data roaming and connects via WiFi only, she'll get BB services as normal.

Or she can do as you suggest and insert a prepaid US domestic SIM with a BlackBerry add-on which will allow her to use data in the USA and make US domestic calls at a far lower cost than if she were to use her own Pakistani SIM whilst roaming. Using a US SIM may require getting her phone unlocked.

The only other issue is that most smartphones sold in Pakistan are imported used units from other countries. A very significant number are stolen and have been network blocked in their original country. There is a chance that your friend's phone may be blocked in the USA if it has previously been reported as lost or stolen in the US.

How best dry blackberry leaves preserving the medicinal value?
Q. Do wild blackberry leaves keep their medicinal value when dried in a dehydrator, or is it best to dry naturally?

I'm having some severe health problems right now and finding that the wild blackberry leaf tea is working wonders so have picked a huge batch to dry now.

Also, if you know, I read that the leaves are most potent if picked before or when the plants are blooming. Is there any merit to that?

Thanks very much in advance.

A. Iâve done a little research on this and discovered a few bits of information that might be useful. One suggestion came from the following site:

http://www.natural-healing-guide.com/Therapeutic-Teas/Blackberry-Leaf-Tea.htm

You might find the paragraph that states the following helpful,

âFermenting the blackberry leaves enhances their flavor and therapeutic effect. To ferment, crush slightly wilted blackberry leaves with a rolling pin. Wrap the leaves in a damp cloth and hang them in a warm place. After two or three days, the leaves will exude a rose like scent. At this point, remove the leaves from the cloth; let them dry before usingâ

This website supports what you appear to have already discovered:

One sentence in the article states:
âThe best time to cut herbs for drying is just before they flower. This is when the leaves have the most oil, which is what gives herbs aroma and flavor.â I recall from my distant past that marijuana growers and users find the flower tops to be the most potent part of this plant so this could very possibly be true of other plants like blueberry.

Hope this helps and that youâre feeling better soon.
