BlackBerry problems surface again (11 OCtober 2011)

Consumers complain that BlackBerry service problems have re-emerged today (11 October 2011)

 

[duderoo]

I got issues again.

 

[BinaryJack]

Bis service is down.

 

[tp3to]

The problem that I have with these issues is that they dont want to disclose what the problem is. I think not disclosure would devastate their reputation

This whole fiasco highlights what life without BIS will be for BB owners. They'll finally have to admit that their devices are pieces of crap. Can't wait for uncapped mobile data

And clever BB owners don't switch to other APN's or Wifi?

 

[duderoo]

Well emails on BES from device are fine, just from Exchange out is the problem.

How is that going to help eMail and BBM's that go through their Data Centre in the UK?

Cheers RIM/BB, was nice knowing you

Who said anything about that? The point is that without BIS, Blackberrys are mediocre devices. Once there are other mobile uncapped products available, the only thing that BBs will have going for them is BBM, and even that is split 50/50 with apps like WhatsApp gaining popularity.

I am not a BB user, never have been, but is the BB internet proxy hardcoded on the handset or can this be changed?

Those are hard to find out of these Forums

BlackBerry users in the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region have found themselves cut off from online-communications for the second day running, following a failure of BlackBerry’s Internet Service.

RIM Share prices will continue to plummet at this rate, if only they had an awesome device in the horizon, it would be a good time to start buying some shares, lol 60%? down from the beginning of the year?

Goto TCP within Options.
Enable APN and enter: internet
Save and close.


NOTE!!!!!! BILLABLE DATA.

This may not service all requirements.

Is anyone else finding this hilarious?

(Nokia user )

 

[techead]

March they were $70 a share now they $23

fail

 

[Garethooper]

Again I say, this will force people to pick up the phone and talk, get in a car drive to meet FACE to FACE, instead of pouring you guts out to FACEBRICK or BBM or whatever other social network you partake in.

Until other phone providers offer enterprise solutions, RIM will still have a place.
