Is BlackBerry Q10 possible to go back to an older operating system?

I looked for a new blackberry, and I really like the specifications and the camera for the Q10.

But I tried the new OS for Blackberry 10 to my mobile phone operator, and I really don't like the gesture-based interface.

I wonder if it is possible to buy a Q10 and then downgrade to an older OS - like maybe OS 7 or 6.

Help, please

-A dedicated Blackberry user

No, sorry. OS 10 is all that is available for the Q10. My guess is that showed you the movements in the store was not interested to sell you a Q10. Once you get used to this gesture is very natural and I really like it on my Z10 and Q10 together.

    My camera Olympus only works with Apple's Quick Time 7.  Is it possible to make it work with my operating system from Windows XP?

    Apple QuickTime 7 works is because. MOV is the Apple
    QuickTime format.

    QuickTime. MOV files can cause problems with Windows Media Player.
    And... If you plan to try editing with Movie Maker... the files should
    be converted to the. WMV format.

    No guarantee, but the following decoder might allow Windows Media
    Reader to read your. MOV files. Only problem is... it is not freeware to retail.

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    3ivx MPEG-4 5.0.4 decoder
    http://store.3ivx.com/3ivxStore/product_details.php?ID=11

    Convert the. MOV files to the. WMV format may be worth a try:

    There are many converters available on the net... some
    free... some detail.

    The following freeware converter is just one example:

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Format Factory (freeware)

    (the 'direct link' is faster download)
    (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup295.zip<>
    (FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
    ('all' boxes on the final screens)
    (Windows XP / Vista / 7)

    First, you will need to decompress the file or just open the
    Drag > FFSetup295.exe< out="" of="" the="">
    and drop it on your desktop. To install left click.

    Next, after the download and installation of Format

    left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
    "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.

    That should do it...

  • Can I go back to the old operating system after upgrade to el Capitan?

    I have a MacBook Air and recently updated (?) for Os X El Capitan. Now, I can't use my Photoshop elements 11. Is there a solution? If this is not the case, can I go back to what I had before El Capitan?

    Hi, grumpy :)

    This isn't what you want to read but it is a recommended to ensure that applications you must have will launch on an updated operating system.

    I do not use the product, but you may need to upgrade your Photo shop elements. Version 14 seems to work on Capitan:

    https://www.Adobe.com/products/Photoshop-elements/buying-guide.html

    You must decide if it's worth the cost of upgrade or use an older OS X, considering that a new OS X (Sierra) will be released at some point.

    Someone else here can advise you how to restore if that's your decision.

    Hello

    my camera 9380 worked perfect when I bought it.

    So I drove back and re-installed 7.0->

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    I'm sorry, but the errors you posted seem somewhat independent... so I need clarification please:

    Unfortunately, "did not work" is not really diagnosable. What, exactly, have you tried? What, exactly, happened every step of what you tried?

    (2) BB App World must be closed

    I do not see how these two errors are related to the first, you were trying to throw the maps app when it appeared? For the second, which came with the maps app? Or is separate #2 and lies somewhere in the process by using your AppWorld? Complete step by step of what you try, with a full explanation of what is happening at each stage, including the full text of all error messages, is essential to understand your situation and if all goes well to guide. Otherwise, we have to guess...

    So I guess. My guess is that, once you upgrade to 7.1, you don't have to perform a few extra steps to ensure that all services were properly enabled on your BB. Here are the steps. I suggest the following, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2, each should result in a message to your BB to come...) Please wait for this before moving on to the next step):

    (1) registry HRT

    • Each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes. See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    I hope that will move things again for you! You can try these few points in your process... either now (on 7.0.0.513) or after you re - try to upgrade to 7.1.0.366.

    Good luck!

    I would like to give two or three days the phone syncs with the new OS. You need to reset hard your Z10 in this way: to connect the wall charger and when it is turned on, remove the battery for 20 minutes and reinsert. He'll recover incorrect battery meter. You may need to do this reset in 1-2 days.

  • Rescue and recovery - how to back up the entire operating system?

    Hi all

    Maybe I'm looking for something that is not supported, but since I got here, then we are

    I'm running Windows 7 Pro (x 64) on the T410.

    Rescue and Recovery 4.31

    I divided my HARD drive into 2 partitions: C for the OS and D for data.

    I have a disk storage network, so, apparently, I did not need to backup the data that is stored on drive D (already to store all my data on the NAS drive)

    What I want to do is to set up the R & R to backup all my drive C (the OS only)

    How can I go about to do?

    Thanks a lot for your comments

    You can do this in "Advanced" mode of Rescue and Recovery:

    1. open Rescue and Recovery

    2. click on the arrow next to "Launch Advanced Rescue and Recovery" in the lower left corner

    3. click on 'Set schedule and preferences' on the right side

    4. click on your "Include partitions" D: drive on the right, so that d will not be saved.

    I had the same problem - the gesture (swipe left/right) is correct, but I guess you drag too far up. Stay in the bottom quarter of the screen.

    And as usual, as soon as you know what to do, you need a bit of practice and suddenly, it is quite normal to swipe this way... (and you wonder why he didn't is not supported in the native BB applications )

  • BlackBerry Smartphones earlier versions of the operating system

    I think to update my "BOLD" to the OS 5.0 but I wanted to know if the phone will keep a version of my old OS or if it deletes it.  I saw a video on youtube and the guy he said he 'could' save a version of it.  Also, when I checked the updates on my phone it says it was not all available even if on the Desktop Manager, it says that there is.  Is it still useful to upgrade? I've seen a version of it on an other "BOLD" and others that texting is a bit different and the camera being much better it looks not very different.  Because I hate change, I'm not sure I want to take the risk.  I wish you can customize the download and choose what is updated. If I update and it does not save a previous version of the operating system is there somewhere on this site that will allow me to put it back on?

    The upgrade of the OS on your handheld does not keep a copy of the old operating system, when the new operating system is installed.  If you do a backukp through DTM then you will have all your data and applications (not BlackBerry).

    If the upgrade does not work well, you need to go back to the previous operating system that works.  Then, you need to restore your data and applications.

  • BlackBerry Q10 not able to complete the Startup Wizard

    Hello

    After buying the unit BB Q10, I was surprised to not finish start Wizard.

    All stages of development to market went well except for the last one - 'Software Update'. This still didn't inform me saves don't not (device) with BB infrastructure without the possibility to go back / next / finishing (I can't do try again or stop)

    Message:

    "Your device cannot be registered with the Blackberry Infrastructure."

    After restarting the device much I always have the same behavior. Charging of BB OS link did not help also.

    I'm really stuck with it, so I would appreciate any help from your side.

    Pavol.

    Finally, I have the explanation for this behavior. My BB Q10 camera was stolen and so blocked by the seller. After some time, asked to cooperate with the police on this case.

    So I think that this device has been blocked by the BB company, probably by asking the seller.

    Be careful when you buy your BB device at the announcement. Check your warranty certificate by phoning the seller in big unit!

    I will close this topic.
