Because when I ordered mines, it was flimsy. 2 days after with the new track ball, it stopped scrolling in one direction. So I took the time to take apart the whole phone, took the whole trackball assembly apart, and put it back together.

From then on, it started to work fine. But the fact that I had to take it apart was a pain and a waste of time.

due to shipping charges...i will order a few just so we all save some money..
when i get 5ish people that want it i will order i guess..

total will come out to about $10 CAD including shipping.

so lmk if u ppl want the bottom piece..cos i hate my rogers logo

as much as I'd buy one from you if you order it, be careful with truesupplier. I was actually thinking of ordering one myself from there cause it seems they're the only ones that carry that small piece OEM but I read a lot of bad reviews on the site, especially long shipping delays, no order tracking at times, and just all around bad customer service. so yeah, don't know if you might wanna wait.

but then again if enough people are interested and you do end up ordering, I'll take one off your hands.

It's the bold 2 unlocked from Bell being used with the Fido carrier.:thumbsup:

sorry bout that, didn't actually feel like looking through 5 pages of postings lol. but does that mean Bell 9700's have no physical branding at all?

TypeRNammer 12-02-2009 02:14 PM

Nope, only the boot screen will say bell. Everything on the outside is unbranded.

I replied to your crackberry post with the same problem..(email's not pushing, i dont even have access to my emails...)

so you're saying, all you did was... you waited a few days and everything fixed itself?

cctw 12-02-2009 10:51 PM

cnn.cn does have the unbranded version of the bottom part..

and as a result i have ordered 3....which means 2 will be up for sale for cost as usual...$11 CAD each cos paypal's exchange rate sucks haha

lmk if u want

shawn79 12-03-2009 02:08 AM

can we use ATT or verizon bold 2 now?

Tim Budong 12-03-2009 03:31 AM

CNN.CN is the most unreliable piece of shit site ever
i have ordered 3 things from them, all claiming to be OEM when infact its china knockoff

Truesupplier isnt much better

of course, crackberry raves truesupplier like no tomolo

ebay, mixed results

all this comes from 5yrs of cellphone repair/modding cases n all since the K750 when i made my halloween edition LOL
so buy at your own risk, everything is a hit or miss with these companies.

as for my 9700
probably not modding mine anyways....altho matteblack looks very appealing to me

in other news..this looks awesome

But in between those days of waiting, each day I've been retrieving the service books at least 3 times during the day to keep up with my emails.

From then on I gave up, then next thing you know i started to get consistant emails. I know it's weird like that.

There is potential in the bold 2 camera, I wasn't even trying when i took these photos!

i love the battery life on this thing. I can finally go more than one day, with heavy use.

That does sound very odd.

I'm now on day 2, and I've been getting emails pushed to me that are sent from companies.

All the test emails that I did to send myself, haven't been going through at all.Hopefully it gets better later on

Best bet is to wait it out for a week. That's what I did. So far no problems to report.

I can go 1.5 days heavy usage before it needs a charge. :)

basically when ppl sms 9700s, it shows the number smsing you and not the name of the person in your address book unless u change their contact info from ex. 604-555-5555 to 6045555555

when will you be getting them? I'll take one but will be out of town during the holidays, so it all depends when you get them

CT10 12-04-2009 07:29 AM

update, all of my emails are pushing now for some reason, so I guess if it's not working, all you have to do is wait a few days

Gh0stRider 12-04-2009 07:54 AM

Leaked os version is available.
