I warned all my friends of the bugs of BBM 5.0 after reading all this and they wouldn't listen, and now they're all glitching out haha I'm waiting for the final version to be released

but that is EXACTLY what i did. backed up my bold then i removed BBM 5 like any other application via options > advanced options > bb > delete. after that a simple reboot and bbm was gone. boot up DM with bb plugged in and went to apploader and i was able to select to install BBM 4.6. proceeded and restored my contacts. never had to reload an OS onto my phone to get BBM 4.6 back.

just wondering, has anyone here tried updating they're bold through a mac? i can't seem to find any other solution other than using windows..

soon..

Since I've updated my 8900, it likes to restart everytime I'm browsing RS?!?!

Try deleting all the cookies and browser stuff.

So, my trackball is finally starting to stick. Any suggestions for fixing this, or am I stuck sending it back to Rogers?

Hey if I wanna use BBM in the states for the next 20 days. How much would it cost? :S

Depends on how much you want to use it. :P

^ thanks!

i usually turn my bold upside down, depress the trackball and roll it around.

Gave it a shot, I cleaned it off yesterday with a cotton towel by rubbing it around. It seemed to have helped. Hopefully with your method, it will go away for a while now.

My blackberry email is screwed up, i can only recieve but it has no send/reply. Has anyone ever experienced this before?

does anyone know the current best deal for a blackberry bold on a rogers 3 year plan? currently on fido so im thinking of making the switch over.

I just talked to Digital Communications (formerly Celtek) on Friday. My current contract is expiring and I'm thinking about signing another three year deal.

I don't know why phone companies always give better incentives to new customers instead of trying to keep their existing ones happy. It costs 10x more to get new business than it does to keep existing customers.

Anyways, if I were to renew my contract and keep my number I am going to pay $299 for the phone (aka Joe Blow on the street can walk into any Rogers dealer and get the same deal.)

However, Celtek offered it to me for $199 over a 3 year term if I signed a new contract with a new number. I'm going to drop by a few more places tomorrow to see what other dealers might offer before I call Rogers to tell them I'm cancelling my existing number.

my friend just got a blackberry bold at tbooth richmond center for $99.99 on a 3 yr term

Thanks for the heads up. I'm thinking about getting the $50 student plan Rogers just released so I hope I can get the Bold for $99 as well...

cool. i'll check it out when i get back to vancouver. thanks mickz for the suggestion also.

I had an offer from Rogers at that price back in December.

you are gonna get raped for the data plan now that rogers jacked it up to $30 for the BB messaging value pack and $40 for the 500mb value pack when they used to be $20 and $30 to begin with.

Went to TBooth today to check out the $99 Bold another member mentioned.

The price is going to be different from account to account. They wanted to charge me $349 with a $50 credit (net $299.)

on the bold is it possible to set one contact phone number's SMS alert to one full mp3 song? basically one number that sends me sms alerts I just want an extremely long annoying alert so that no matter how sleepy I am I can wake up.

^^ dont think thats possible.

Not sure if anyone else has been keeping up on the 9700, probably the bold 2.
