Search crackberry forums > blackberry themes > bold 9700

Plenty there, split into free and paid premium themes.

Recommend? "Flying icons"

hey guys, I have a AT&T 9700 that's being shipped to me right now.
I totally forgot the craziness I had with the "sim toolkit error" on the AT&T 9000 i had before.

I was able to unbrand the 9000 to get rid of the sim toolkit error and got 3G working on fido sim.
Now I think the AT&T 9700 i'm getting will have the same issue but I think there is currently no way to unbrand the 9700 right?

Will changing to another firmware and deleting the vendor.xml fix it?

Please help me out guys!!!

^What day did they say they shipped it out? I'm still waiting for mine, when I check my email, it says that they shipped it on Apr 5. When I check the HK post tracking site it says that it only left HK on the 10th :(

Already ordered an epik soft gel resin case for my phone, but don't know if it'll work with the charging pod.

Using a charging pod because..

i'll only need one most likely...so I'll sell the other 2 at cost when they come (1 week or so) at $5 if meet up in richmond and $7 if convenient somewhere in vancouver..

lmk

How did this work out for you? Did you use the soap/water mix to install it?

I'm planning on ordering as well, it's cheaper to ship on a group buy of 2+ and i'll sell at cost as well.

on os .593

Just ran into my first bug

bbm notification icon is stuck at the top of my homescreen

tried battery pulls, extended battery pulls, deleted all chat logs, searched for all unopened messages, reinstall bbm (didn't downgrade).

guess i'll wait till a new OS comes out and it'll get rid of the problem hopefully.

Anybody want to order the BSE skin and is interested in a group buy?

^ How are these compared to Zagg ones?

I'm interested in a group buy but maybe we should do one with ZAGG? I heard theirs a 50% promo as well, doesn't matter to me though.

They both have great return/refund/warranty policies.

Lots of users from CB have said theirs have been delayed in the mail, asked BSE to send another one since it probably got lost in the mail, and they sent another without hesitation, ended up getting 2 skins as well.

They've also mentioned that there is less " orange peeling ", PERFECT fitment relative to zagg.

Ultimately, same materials but cheaper as well.

7.99 compared to 19.99 ( then +50% off still makes it more expensive)

Joquio, I'm sure we can work something out too because it's still an order from BSE so it'll count towards the shipping discount.

Yes, different 3G bands.
If you want to use 3G with Rogers/Fido get the AT&T
If you want to use 3G with Wind get the T-mobile.
If you don't plan on using 3G just get whatever carrier one as long as it's unlocked.

illicitstylz 04-15-2010 10:42 AM

For opera, did you download from the mobile site?

What are the advantages of using Opera or another 3rd party browser over the default 9700 browser? Are they really that much faster? The default browser seems pretty good to me (I don't browse that much though).
