Yup. 10.2 is awesome. They're starting to clean up the little things and adding features as well. Just wish they spent some time on the music player. Though, I have neutron so it's not a big deal.

IMO, the best part is the lock screen previews and the app monitor.

Did you try restarting?

Great news for BB10 owners!

Install Android App APKs Directly with BlackBerry 10.2.1

Code:
Rumors regarding Google Play Store and the Android runtime have been swirling lately. While BlackBerry denies offering support for the Google Play Store, the Android runtime in BlackBerry 10.2.1 will allow you to directly install Android app APKs directly.

Shown in the screenshot above, users will be able to download Android app APKs and install them. BlackBerry gives a disclaimer about the newly opened feature for BlackBerry 10.

This feature will surely make BlackBerry 10 users immediately happy. You will literally be able to install almost any Android app. However, you won’t be able to make use of widgets, etc.

Enough though we lost 4.4 billion , the stock still went up 11%.

I guess the people really believe in Chen.

Buy a z30 , you will miss the screen too much if get a q10.

Im getting sick of my nexus5/android , there is nothing special about and the OS isn't superior compared to BB10.

i completely agree, just need the apps. If blackberry gets the apps they would be solid.

but that physical keyboard if I did go back to BB it would probably be with a z30 though I've only played around with a q10 touchscreen before any feedback on how the z10/z30 keypad is? typing on S4 is brutal IMO im always pressing the wrong key, wasn't a problem on my old BB's or iPhone 4

The keyboard is great, best one in the market.

I have a Z10 , Q10 and maybe getting a Z30.

I was first sceptical about getting a fully touch phone but after playing with for a month, it was not all too bad , the keyboard is great. It remembers frequently used words and learns how to you type and predicts some words without actually typing.

I think I'm going to go to a store play around with a Z30 demo see what I think and if I do like it I will try to trade my S4 + a bit of cash or something for one over CL or something, I'm over my S4 it was pretty cool when I first got it with the air play stuff and what not.

The hands free usability, the eye detection unlock and all that stuff was fun for a week than just became an annoyance, along with the keyboard not being very good and battery life being pretty mediocre regardless of what battery saving app I use and having background apps off and I don't use many of the apps like I thought I would when I first bought it

The camera and screen resolution is awesome though I must admit

I looked into it and Rogers isn't selling the z30 if I were to get one I could get one that is a different carrier and just unlock it right?

Did you call them directly? Because they are doing a call to order type thing. They are selling to people who place an order on it.
