my battery life sucks

New bold ent?


Same for my 9850, charge it sometimes twice a day with extremely heavy usage.

[casper]

^^^jus make sure its GSM and not CDMA eh...lolz

[foss]

definitely!

[tr1ad]

i believe i posted battery tips for os7 a few pages back

i'm on 7.1 and after 9hrs of use, i've got about 40% life left

won't apply to full touch screens though

[Trini Hookah]

yeah tr1ad display on 10% etc, but the full touch does have part to play.

[tr1ad]

exactly
if it's full touch no way you can get through the day with a single charge

[S_2NR]

got a 9780 today.
upgraded to latest OS6 build. working bess. i missed BBM

phone feels tiny compared to my android, alot more pocketable.

currently experiencing a problem with my blackberry 9900, I've had this 9900 since September 2011 and have blackberry internet service from digicel, as of 2 weeks or so ago am experiencing delays in my bbm messages, fb messages etc, i thought it was a service provider problem so i decided to try my b-mobile sim in it and same problem, wiped the phone, re-installed the os and the problem is still there, am running on os 7.1.0.342 (1149)

a bit more detail about the problem, sometimes my bbm's etc would go/come smoothly, updates like normal etc then at some point i'll stop getting messages for about 10-15mins no bbm updates nun then all would just come rushing in and it may work normal for a while and then start back delaying again, if am connected to wifi bbm's/updates etc flow like normal with no delays at all. sometimes when i realise that i haven't seen any new messages or updates for a long time and i connect to wifi all comes in soon am connected to the wifi

what do you all think i could do to fix this problem?

[tr1ad]

it's a network problem (both networks)
not a phone problem

nope its the 9360 an its like every 4 hrs this phone gotta charge

[Stephon.]

he's one of them who does see a price online and calculate by $6.5 to get a final price and want it for that locally apparently.

Off topic but. I brought in a Jordan for a worker once and he complained about the price, and I didn't even charge him anything, I gave him the price from amazon and even the receipt from the skybox and he still thought I was robbing him. You see this is why I need to stop helping out people, go in town and buy your fake Jordan's for twice the price next time

/rant.

Oh but in other news, has anyone heard any talks about when the new playbook will be coming out? Or if there will even be one?

yes it will work on either network. I had one for a short period of time.
make sure its unlocked!
but why would you buy the 9930? If you can choose get the 9900 instead.

[jeevdude199]

well the new battery did the trick had a full charge this morning after some heavy use trolling real fans on bbm and fb the battery atm is 70%....massive improvement

[Trini Hookah]

From a seller, but very good ratings...
hoping for the best!

[tr1ad]

and what exactly wrong with using sellers on amazon?

[Chimera]

lol tr1ad..

someone brought her "new" torch 9800 to fix by me yesterday

she paid $ 300 US for it on amazon= $2000
paid $850 to clear it

when it reach...phone was refurbed and the screen wasnt coming on when they slide it up

they had to pay $500 to change the flex strip

total cost - $3350 for a working refurbished torch 9800
and i sell brand new 9800s for $2500

they ordered from a amazon 3rd party seller, i always see stories like this
the thing is that amazon itself honours warranty no questions asked, 3rd party sellers dont

[tr1ad]

guess it's just me that knows what items i should purchase from 3rd party sellers

[Trini Hookah]

Well that, and not ALL items are stocked/sold by Amazon.
