Thanx saw that before but there is no answer in that forum. I had a friend get into the development software on the phone and he somehow put in the apn.

If you have a blacked out APN it's quite easy to change it.
 
Open your phone browser, type escreen://   and enter it.  Click ok and the help screen will come up.
 
On your computer go to http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9610464/HelpScreen.html
 
Enter the information from your phones helpscreen into that generator and generate your key.  On a z10 swipe your keyboard up while looking at the helpscreen and enter that code.  On a q10 just type it.
Then you are in the engineering screens.  Go to General radio, scroll to set APN name and enter the apn you need.  Back out and the network will reset with the new apn.

For those that are on OS 10.2.1 or higher you can download android apps straight from , mobile1, snap, amazon app store.

+1

I find Snap to be the best, it has to be side loaded, but once its installed, you could download most andriod app

How can I get mobile1, snap, or amazon app store on my phone?

[WhiteWolf]

You can get 1mobile from this link

Have they fixed the 1mobile notifications issue? I have snap and it works well but there are some apps that dont work.  Not sure if they would work better if downloaded using 1mobile or not but its worth a try if 1mobile doesnt have the annoying notifications all the time.

You have to be running 10.2.1 and then you can get the link from crackberry.com in the forums or use the link provided above

You can disable 1mobile notifications in the settings of the app.

Anyone here using the Glympse feature in BBM?

[JamesIV]

Is that the location thingy?

[springles]

Is that the location thingy?

yes, here is what I wrote in the BBM for Android/iOS thread:

In a BBM conversation click on the paperclip next to the line where you type.  Then click on the "G."  This allows you to share your location with a BBM contact for any length of time between 5 minutes and 4 hours.  I have found this to be incredibly useful. 

Example: You are meeting up with someone, you send them your location and they can see where you are so that they can meet you at the right place, know how long it will take you to get there (it also shows how quickly you are moving so you get a sense of if the person is in traffic or not)...  When my wife and I are at outlets or some mall we always go to different stores and then at some point I call to ask which store she is in.  By the time I get to that store she may have moved on to a different one. Now she just shares her location at the beginning and then at any point I can meet up with her at the store she is in. 
The uses are really endless.

Yup sounds really useful. Good to know

extremely useful.  I dont know why it hasnt been publicized more, since I have discovered it it has made a real impact on my life.  If Apple or Samsung had added this feature it would be huge news.
