does blackberry messenger work on an unlocked phone when you put a different sim card?

Q. My sister is giving me her blackberry bold 9700 soon, she's on O2 and i'm on 3. The phone is unlocked so I was just wondering whether i can use blackberry messenger using my sim card because my sim card has already got internet data plan with it. I haven't tried yet because she hasn't given it to me yet.

A. If it has an INTERNET data plan (e.g. 500 websites a month, or unlimited browsing) then no, but if it has a data plan you can use for anything (e.g. 500MB a month) then check with your provider, usually just ask and they'll pay for you to have it.

How many blackberry bushes can grow in one acre of land?

Q. I'm doing a science project and my teacher made it a little too specific so I pretty much need help here. I need to find out how many blackberries can grow in one acre, and how much they will sell for.

A. There are lots of dependancies; what type of plant you are growing and what soil type are key factors. On average commercial growers can get 3kg of fruit per plant on mature plants. The spacing of the plants depends on the plant variety used. Assume you need to space the plants 2mtrs apart and the rows spaced the same, now you have that data you can calculate how many rows you can get in on one acre and then compute the total potential yield. Bear in mind that there will always be wastage and losses.

Will my Blackberry Bold automatically select a WiFi network to browse the internet when one is available?

Q. If there is both a 3G network as well as WiFi network available (and connected) will my Blackberry Bold preferentially connect to the internet via the WiFi connection? If so, is there a special set-up required?

A. If you set it to auto look. Personally, I think it is a pain, I would rather manually search when I want. Go to Network setting and you'll see it there.

Original Question

How come some blackberry bushes are covered in blackberries and others have none?

Q. Have noticed that certain bushes are loaded with fruit and others have nothing where the fruit hasn't developed beyond a dried up brown lump. Any reason for the disparity?

A. Blackberries do not simply exist as a single species. About 350 "microspecies" of bramble are found in Britain alone and they vary in leaf shape, flower colour, nature of the fruit (hard, soft, early, late, large, small) so it is not surprising that some plants have plenty of fruit while some have few or none. Much clearly depends upon the weather.

The study of these bramble microspecies is known as batology.

How can have the blackberry 9700 user interface on a different BLACKBERRY?

Q. I have the blackberry 8330 from boost mobile. I just don't like the UI on the 8330. So can any of you tech savvy people around here help me. So my question is can it be done and how.
Thanks.

A. There is no way you can have an exact replica of the Blackberry 9700 user interface on your Blackberry 8330.

What you can first do is upgrade the operating system on your 8330 and see if you are satisfied with the interface. If you would like to take an extra plunge into beta operating systems which tend to yield better performance and occasionally some extra goodies please feel free to do so at your own discretion but you may want to review your contract with Boost Mobile just in case. And if you would like to take an even deeper plunge go for hybrids that are created by putting different aspects of different operating systems build by 3rd party developers. Go to crackberry.com for more information on betas and hybrids along with other goodies for your blackberry.

Another option is to download a theme for your Blackberry from an app store or through an over-the-air download link.

My BlackBerry won't connect to the internet, receive emails and BlackBerry Messenger does not work?

Q. I recently changed the sim card of my BlackBerry 8520 from an 02 sim to a giffgaff one. Since then, the phone has been unable to connect to the internet or use any data. The phone is also permanently stuck on 'gprs' mode and will not connect to a 3g network. I am also unable to log in to my BlackBerry ID. I would appreciate opinions on this matter, thank you!

A. Things to do (in my opinion):
1. Try to put the Oâ SIM card back in your BlackBerry device and check whether it's now able to connect to the internet and you are able to use all the BlackBerry service (BBM, Log in to BlackBerry ID, etc) like before » Please make sure that both your Oâ and GiffGaff are registered to the BlackBerry Internet Service.

If the problem persists...

2. Try to contact the GiffGaff provider's Customer Service and ask them for help.

If the problem stay still...

3. Try to check whether your BlackBerry device is locked by a provider or not. You can ask about this to the place where you bought your BlackBerry device.
(A locked-by-a-single-provider BlackBerry device usually sold as one in a bundling -BlackBerry handset with a SIM card already- and sometimes there's a provider brand logo stamped on the BlackBerry device)

If the problem still persist (again)...

4. Try to check whether your BlackBerry device got an error/bug(s) in its device software.
For this one, you need to check your BlackBerry device software version by typing: "myver" (without the quotation mark) anywhere on your BlackBerry device, then check on the internet, what's the latest version of the BlackBerry 8520 device software. If your device software is not up to date, you may need to upgrade your BlackBerry device software (newer device software usually contains a lot of bug and error fixes, etc).

Hope one of the solutions there help you solve the problem.

does my blackberry storm 9350 work in Philippines?

Q. I have a Blackberry storm 9350 which has a Verizon contract. I am planning to go to Philippines for a vacation. Can i use my Blackberry? If so, how much its going to cost me to have it work on?

A. No because verizon wirless's roaming service is CDMA (Which covers only North America and some other parts of the world). Meanwhile, T-Mobile is GSM Which will work internationally but your bill will go up lol. I suggest you just use a telephone/landline and use phone cards with it. OR you can buy a cheap prepaid T-Mobile phone, but your minutes' rates will be higher.

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.

My BlackBerry won't connect to the internet, receive emails and BlackBerry Messenger does not work?

Q. I recently changed the sim card of my BlackBerry 8520 from an 02 sim to a giffgaff one. Since then, the phone has been unable to connect to the internet or use any data. The phone is also permanently stuck on 'gprs' mode and will not connect to a 3g network. I am also unable to log in to my BlackBerry ID. I would appreciate opinions on this matter, thank you!

A. Things to do (in my opinion):
1. Try to put the Oâ SIM card back in your BlackBerry device and check whether it's now able to connect to the internet and you are able to use all the BlackBerry service (BBM, Log in to BlackBerry ID, etc) like before » Please make sure that both your Oâ and GiffGaff are registered to the BlackBerry Internet Service.

If the problem persists...

2. Try to contact the GiffGaff provider's Customer Service and ask them for help.

If the problem stay still...

3. Try to check whether your BlackBerry device is locked by a provider or not. You can ask about this to the place where you bought your BlackBerry device.
(A locked-by-a-single-provider BlackBerry device usually sold as one in a bundling -BlackBerry handset with a SIM card already- and sometimes there's a provider brand logo stamped on the BlackBerry device)

If the problem still persist (again)...

4. Try to check whether your BlackBerry device got an error/bug(s) in its device software.
For this one, you need to check your BlackBerry device software version by typing: "myver" (without the quotation mark) anywhere on your BlackBerry device, then check on the internet, what's the latest version of the BlackBerry 8520 device software. If your device software is not up to date, you may need to upgrade your BlackBerry device software (newer device software usually contains a lot of bug and error fixes, etc).

Hope one of the solutions there help you solve the problem.

does my blackberry storm 9350 work in Philippines?

Q. I have a Blackberry storm 9350 which has a Verizon contract. I am planning to go to Philippines for a vacation. Can i use my Blackberry? If so, how much its going to cost me to have it work on?

A. No because verizon wirless's roaming service is CDMA (Which covers only North America and some other parts of the world). Meanwhile, T-Mobile is GSM Which will work internationally but your bill will go up lol. I suggest you just use a telephone/landline and use phone cards with it. OR you can buy a cheap prepaid T-Mobile phone, but your minutes' rates will be higher.

Oh and I am from the Philippines, have fun there if you end up going!
