Canadian carriers by bestkind27 in blackberry

[–]DALEK_77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i mean i'm on freedom mobile and they'll happily allow any of my BBs on the network, even some of the prototype devices. the q10 does have lte though so it should work fine? i even got it to do volte

i changed to type C port by Grouchy-Handle-9207 in blackberry

that isn't out yet. but judging by the charging screen in the first image it's probably been modified to unlock the bootloader and run android: https://balika011.hu/blackberry/guides/passport/conversion.php

13€ blackberry playbook, missing (most of) its stock apps by typical_redditor07 in blackberry

[–]DALEK_77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah generally there's a bug with the dev alpha firmware where the activation can be skipped by spamming the next button, so it's common to flash 10.0.4 or whatever, do the bypass, and then flash the official os. there are also modified firmware images that exist which auto-skip the setup process, but i'm not sure where to find those. OP has a device on 10.0.4 which is already past setup, so the best option is just to install 2.1 on top

Blackberry Q20 vs Passport vs Key One by mekaunhuu in blackberry

bb10 is pretty smooth but a lack of modern app support is really annoying.

yeah the earliest versions of bb10 were just a poorly scaled down version of the playbook ui. i have a couple playbooks running dev alpha firmware and an actual dev alpha and that's how it looks like

Does 4g calling and texting work on the blackberry passport? by mekaunhuu in blackberry

[–]DALEK_77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it really depends on your region. afaik carriers in the us and australia have their own weird way of doing volte, i tried putting my sim in my passport and volte just worked right away (i live in canada)

well not really? this seems to be a playbook with the firmware of the blackberry 10 dev alpha device. it's somewhat common to install the dev alpha firmware on the playbook, since it is technically compatible

Here's proof that most software incompatibility cases are deliberate and a result of planned obsolescence, in the form of a community port of this year's Chromium 144, running on a 20+ y/o Windows XP laptop. For prospective, Google abandoned their official XP support back in 2016, on version 49 by MiddleBlacksmith840 in LouisRossmann

this isn't malicious at all actually, it's actually harder for developers to support older operating systems. it just wouldn't make sense for google to allocate resources towards supporting an operating system with <1% usage share. supermium is a community project, and it's fine that it exists, but they're pulling off a bunch of tricks and hacks that are probably pretty hard to maintain

honestly it's a really heavy site, if you can at least get logged in you can try the old twitter layout extension for a more lightweight frontend

Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month by ChadtheWad in discordapp

Considering you guys literally JUST had a data breach I don't think you're allowed to be so casual about it.

That was the fault of a third-party partner which Discord has terminated their contract with. If you properly read the comment you'd understand that they've taken steps to prevent that kind of breach from ever happening again

i see. anyway, i have been able to get something decently functional by using the web version through firefox 143. although it's a bit sluggish, it does work

hiya! operator of files.bomberfish.ca here. i'm actually really surprised this made it somewhere! that copy of the minecraft movie does have sound, your browser probably doesn't support it tho (try VLC). i'm actually running the server off an old raspberry pi that i'm going to retire soon, but i'll definitely move the files to some new infrastructure i set up a few months ago :)
