  • ahaha guys just to say it in short BB storm 2 its a superb phone with all i want as for me i am gud at using this gadget, so i dont what others i saying with their screens touching problems, i have been using mine for a year & its still in a immaculate condition, it has no scratches , i am going to sell it soon but hands up to RIM,the speed is so amazing...thunp up.

  • I been using this phone for more than 2 years now. i would say it has a very nice quality compare with other phones. The only things i dont like with BB is its free application most of the appliaction from blackberry world is boring. Unlike androids phones with lot of exciting applications. It is also hard to connect to application world, you need to have a data plan in order to use BB application world BB facebook.

  • the blackberry storm 2 is a very delicate phon which should be handled with care. mine is having a screen problem and it is costing me a lot of money. but in other features lyk the camera n battery life the storm stands out.

  • Yes Litzy, it happens to me too. i dont like the screen-pushed to click, so different from Storm 1, which is easier to type,or click. But maybe if there's no warranty, you can adjust the screws behind it. it works on my Strom 1.

  • Look on bidorbuy.co.za cheap and plenty available.

  • you won't find it. POINT. I am in Namibia and nobody stock it here. You can try in Botswana, got a fried there and they have it freely available. Imported mine from USA

  • Storm2 is difficult to touch, when type message. it must be pushed

  • Hi guys pls help is it possible to remove the screen reaction every time i press the touch screen or the keyboard and usually how long does storm's battery last?

  • Where can I find this phone in South Africa? I have searched all over, please.

  • the phone of just quality is jst amajing i cant express my feelings of that quality of mobile beacouse the imagination of the high quality is jst brilluiant

  • With this specific mobile, I am able to scam the telco into providing cheap data. I then simply connect the mobile directly to the computer, and use as a modem. 2gig of data at $10, compared to the usual $30. The phone does not only look good, but I look good holding it. Blackberry is equivalent to possessing a Porsche key ring. Place the Blackberry next to your Bookers Bourbon, and simply wait for the chickybabes seeking your number.

  • can anybody who use it say me that does all apps and online facebook games works?

  • check out the offer in this site.. deals and you.com

  • can this phone with-stand a fall and can the touch function long in cool places

  • hi guys any one tell there is an video player in this mobile, it acess to videos. Thanks in advance

  • hi im from srilanka , u should get the gsm version i guess - as somebody have mentioned i guess theres a cdma version too , however i highly recommend looking else where other than this phone , i used it for around two weeks and it was a mess (long time ago) , the press touch screen technology is not amazing as u think - when texting it becomes a whole bad nightmare , the web browser is bad it takes around 5 min's to display a web page but when it comes to mobile web pages those gets displayed quickly i guess its a terrible bug and yes i was running the latest firmware in it . the music player got bugs in it which will display a black bar in the now playing album art area . some headsets with 3.5 mm wont support this phone properly they will give a loud humming sound whenever u play music in it . available applications and games are limited and the app center wont support srilanka . there are no 3rd party proper web browsers available for this phone the available bolt and opera browsers got bad bugs in them which will crash them or mess your phone up . all in all do you really wanna pay monthly for email support ? which is a whole waste of your money . finally my nightmare ended after selling this crap away and buying a galaxy s i9000 that was way way back and now im using a s.e. xperia arc .

  • Hello!!! My Dear Friend Why Don't You Press Your LCD a Little Bit Gently So You May Be Save From Damaging Your Phone & Able To Save Your Money.

  • The 9520 is from Vodafone n d 9550 is from Verizon

  • The touch screen system is different. For those usually use other touch screen phone might have some difficulties. Currently I am using this storm2 9550 with software version of 5.0.0.1015 (just updated from the BB site) evrithing works fine, BT, Wifi, 3G connection etc, I post this also through my storm2. One thing I haven't try yet is the capability of its CDMA. It was mentioned when 1st time I finish its software upgrade but not yet try to operate with CDMA card.

  • i already change my LCD 6 times! bcos when i press it other keys will be pressed.wth.

  • Hi why that my phone used to type two letter at once even if I still change it to A B C?

  • i bought it b4 5 days,but i m very shocked to c its battery performance.after listening 3 or 4 songs iit starting to getting down,can anybody help me on this matter or wht can i do to improve the battery life.

  • Just do one thing firstly, switch off the wifi then change the homepage to any page that you want to come up with and then,do the hard reboot as in take out the battery while the phone is still swithced on, hopefully that will resolve ya issue.....

  • I do suggest that you should not buy 9550. This phone lacks of application. But if you a techy person, I suggest try samsung galaxy s or galaxy s2 is better. Iphone is okay, once you jail break it, you can install crack apps.

  • p. what do i do.

  • can someone tell me if u can play touch games on it?

  • i think this is one of the best from blackberry family. at first i have many issues like the screen doesn't click, phone freeze, self restart.. but after some upgrading it does good now. big screen, okay sounds n display, surepress keyboard.. even can be used in portrait with reduced standard candybar keyboard so u can text in one hand. i have been using it for 1.5 years and i like it. but if u want a superb entertainment phone, this is not the right one for u. get an iphone instead :)

Hope you can help me

  • any great game will work on this strom2?

  • I have been using a Blackberry 9520. Its Fast durable good battery life . SW has some bugs or maybe i installed to much cracked applications. But still love it. Hope they make the storm 3 faster and give it a stronger camera. But leave WIFI GPS and bluetooth as connections :)

  • If anybody wants to go for storm2 my advice is go for it!! very good performance. i have using for about 6 months and did not experienced any lack or stuck or hang or whatsoever. Only the startup needs until 2-3 minutes but that is normal for a smartphone. BB is a real lively phone. With iphone u can't do many things as it is blocked by apple but with BB, u can do all the things without any restricted.

Does anybody had faced the same problem? Also on the top it shows "Activation Required" what activation does it mean?

  • Nokia is struggle in smartphone market and definitely a dieing company. Today also there is announcement of layoff of 800 employees :-( Now days since nokia don't have great touch screen and other technology, they are focusing on camera and music phones only. Infact their smart phone feature are 8MP camera and huge memory for music...what is the point in paying so much for a camera and music phone instead smart phone. I feel there is strong come back is required from Nokia to beat smartphone companies like iphone, blackberry, Samsung etc.

  • When will i can buy this phone in Portugal? :p

  • Thanks ya... can u help me out by telling how much shud i spend if getting it 4m US????

  • Mine is working just fine. I havent had any problems with the phone at all. My brother on the other hand did have problems with the phone and received a new replacement from Vodafone (His is branded). I highly recommend this phone to anyone. However, if you do get one get the unbranded version, it works better and faster then a branded one.

  • Is d OS working well???i heard rumors dat it has some probs .....???? I m planning 2 buy 1....

  • i do love this smart phone... but i'm not happy with the battery life... hiks... i hope an original BB upgraded and more powerful battery comes up. and by the way, does anyone out there by chance have some explanation what could be the reason why my storm2 9550 doesn't have the call forwarding/call divert function in its phone-options menu? thanks

  • How about the battery backup? i just got my new 9550 from us but i am not happy with the battery backup...... it just sucks.....i am nt sure abt other bb models....but overall its worthy.....

  • Anonymous. i support u on that one. if u going to be different bb then be unique just dnt be a damn "wannabe". maintain being unique. amen!

  • I like this phone, i must buy one before it will be discontinued Because of the storm3, wish the storm2 refresh is not cancelled so i can switch to it, i dont like the storm3 rumors with iphone looks, rim you should make the storm3 look like a BBstorm, and not make it look like an iphone, dont be an iphone imitator! Be blackberry! Stick with the original and dont try to look stupid by imitating iphone just like other cellphone companies!

  • wey. go www.youtube.com and check out the videos that compares the two. try this guy "dziekank" (just type it in. ok ‎

  • how about Storm 9530 and 9520? what's the basic difference?

  • Thanx guys (jrf n mainyu) but what i experienced is the screen is not responsive yes i think it needs to be repaired... thanx alot Regards Zohaib

  • ZOHAIB.first u need to understand the touch screen on the storm 9550. now this is it. (whenever u touch an icon, that FIRST TOUCH ONLY SELECTS the icon, then when u press the screen it executes ur command.it can do both simultaneously. if that is not the case, do a "BATTERY PULL" and if the same prob occurs, like JRF said "take it in for repair o replacement.

  • Actually, they are the same. The only thing is, if you use a CDMA carrier, then you need the 9550. If you use a SIM card, you can use either one. They are the same in any other way. As for the screen, mine is pretty soft. If your friend's phone isn't responsive he should take it in for repair o replacement.

  • means storm2 9550 is better... bt i experienced one thing in 9550 which is that i saw 9550 whch my friend is using its buttons (phone call , menu, back , cancel)are pretty hard n also the screen too it needs to be pressed twice or thrice then it works, is it a problem with the phone or its like that but my friend told me that the phone is alrite as he gt it new from canada but the videos i saw it seems pretty smooth so is it a problem with his phone or 9550 is just like that ??

  • why when i press *100#, its will be calling??n

  • To get it into qwerty view you need to change it in the Screen/Keyboard settings. And glad to see it worked for you!

  • 9520 = GSM only, Edge 9550 = CDMA with GSM capabilities. 1XEV (REV-A CDMA 3G) EDGE on GSM. That's it.

  • Can somebody tell me pls whats the difference between BB storm2 9550 and 9520 ????

  • Hey JRF thanks a million man, it worked (clearing my event logs). was on able to get it in quertykey view but, it turns out that it didnt matter.

  • Ok, apparently it does but since the newer OS versions don't have Show Keyboard in the menu's list, you need to go to Screen/Keyboard and set one of the convenience keys to Virtual Keyboard and then you should be able to access the Event Log.

  • No, the 9520/9550 is getting discontinued because it is being replaced with the Storm3 soon. In some countries you should be able to buy it. I'm in Mexico and we just got the S2 like 2 months ago, and in the USA, it already reach End Of Life. I personally like my Storm 2 and preferred it over the Torch. Yes, the Torch has BB6 but that didn't matter to me. The S2 has always been on my "must have" list and now I have it. I have no OS issues, and if I did, I can always reload the OS or update to a newer one. For more info on OS and software issues, check out some forums like Crackberry.

  • Glad to see you got wifi working. As for the event log, ATL LGLG won't work on the Storm. I'll look into touchscreen shortcuts and get back to you as soon as I can. Althugh, in my opinion, clearing the event log won't do anything. The most it cleared up is like 1 or 2 MBs of space. Check your available app memory (options-memory-application memory) and see if it's too low. If you have enough memory, then the key getting stuck is probably due to a defect. Try taking it in with your service provider and see if you can exchange it for a warranty replacement or get it fixed. I did read that screen issues can be fixed with OS updates, but since you already did that, I'll assume redoing it won't help.

  • i am from bangladesh.i am using my storm,wi-fi is ok.i can use any SIM here.now using grameenphone connection.but i cant use the internet in the phone.any suggestion?

  • Anbu.check if your phone in on line 2, it shud b on line 1. I'm not sure where to find the settings on these phones , however on a "normalphone" (not "smartphone") that wud be the prob. ok

  • i'm having problem with my BlackBerry Storm2 9550...where only certain people receiving my sms..sometimes i cant call out although the number is already in my contacts... y is it...

  • Dear Guys, I got the info from that the BB ST-2(9550) is discontinued due to OS problem in it, is the above informatiom is true............please let me know. Reg naina

  • Is it possible to use my storm 9550 to format my memory card?

  • yes 9520 has wifi. 9520 is really the same 9550 the real difference is that 9520 is euro ph and 9550 is N america ph

  • NO. the storm 9500 and 9530 does not use wifi

  • sweetie. pressing alt lglg is not working on my storm 9550 to clear my "event log".on the menu screen whenever i press the bb key the option "show keyboard" does not come up in the list of options. i also tried it (alt lglg) in other apps like message etc.

  • To "clear log" press alt lglg

  • hey guys. my bb storm 9550 wi-fi is working again. i finally realizes that my data service was turned of via instructions from my service provider and that was my prob. however, i'm still unable to "clear log" need help with that and my touch screen is not as responsive as b4,the return key keeps stucking

  • hey, i updated my bb storm 9550 from v5.0.0.607 to v5.0.0.713 but my wi-fi is still not working. this crap is driving to the curve. in the middle of updating these JPS guys came and disconnected the current on my street, isn't that something. plz somebody help me. ive wanted so long to get this phone and now i messed it up. one more thing. how do i clear my logs since,in the menu the show keyboard does not appear in the menu option?

  • thanks JRF, but i tried all that already. the settings are ok with the hotspot thing, i tried installing opra mini 5.1 but it keeps failing.i am currently running v5.0.0.607 if i should upgrade to v5.0.0.713 as the bb software indicates. do u think i'll still have the same prob or maybe worst cuz i've never done anything like this b4 and its my first bb so i dont want to mess it up.

  • thanks JRF, but i tried all that already. the settings are ok with the hotspot thing, i tried installing opra mini 5.1 but it keeps failing.i am currently running v5.0.0.607 if i should upgrade to v5.0.0.713 as the bb software indicates. do u think i'll still have the same prob or maybe worst cuz i've never done anything like this b4 and its my first bb so i dont want to mess it up.

  • Hey! We already have it in México. I got mine with Iusacell. It's a pretty great device. I had the 8520 before and this one is a great upgrade for me. I didn't want the Torch because I don't like it that much.

  • 9700 anyday

  • which is better? bold 9700 or 9650? storm 9550? I'm planning to buy one, but i'm all confused. Want wi-fi, 3G, minimum 3.2MP camera, and up to minimum 16GB expandable memory card. Does 9550 support vodafone?

  • Hello, salman Rahim! If you are already working and want professional features, go for omnia. However, omnia is a little complicated and hard to use especially when you're in a hurry. But if you want something easier to use and has basic functionality, then you should get a blackberry. I intend to get the cheaper model, the Blackberry 8520, but it has everything in it.

  • Hi, I want to purchase this phone but i can not find SKYPE in the specifications. Further more some bady can advise that which phone I should choose from BlackBerry Storm & Samsung S I9000.?

  • try to switch the phone off and on it back again...and you can now press the Massage icon and others

  • the first storm is not bad, this one is his big bros, i like the bold 9000 too,all i can wish for is to shorten their start ups and much more ram with the storm1 and bold 9000. messaging, touch, business is some of the Blackberry's finest.

  • i would be honest with you, i'm not patronizing you or something. a friendly post i have for you, i dont recommend using this phone, hence it looks quite good but you have to consider quality/feature wise. why dont you try looking for another model/brand, say samsung i897...you might like it and will never regret having bought it for yourself.P.S.

  • One more question: For web browsing - is the download rate slow and what kind of websites does it not work well??

  • Hi I have some questions; please help me: I am from Singapore. will appreciate very much especially if you are from Singapore and currently using this model 1. I wonder if anyone knows if this phone is being phased out in RIM soon as I am considering to use a BB for the first time 2. This will be a miracle if anyone knows but I will try - anyone knows if this phone will get an OS 6 update? 3. What are the pros and cons of this phone? Thanks!

  • Hi guys i have a question. Is it true that if the phone have logo (eg verizon) you cannot update the software? Please help. Thanks!

  • Brother I've got it right Thanks a million. i tell you the phone is a sure thing

  • Both have their merits. Bold's qwert key board is great. Definitely preferable to the soft touch of storm which takes time to perfect the pressure required to operate. The data speed of storm on the other hand is unprecedented. It connects at 7.2mb/s as against bold's 3.6mb/s

  • is this phone support arabic language?

  • Can anyone pls tell me which is better...this or d Bold?

  • Hiii can sum 1 plz tell me is this phone gud for msg n chat????? N the cost in india maharashtra.....

  • hello ashish66601, i'm so sorry you're feeling that way about BB storm2 and that you have wasted your money.However i've been waiting, wanting and now desperately needing this phone, but unable to afford it.So "please" show the phone some respect. ok? and it would be highly appreciated, if it is appropriate you could kindly send me that master piece that i'm in love with.am not kidding ([email protected])maybe you can also check out the iPhone

  • Hello Everyone, does any one knows when RIM will release the update OS 6 for this deivce Thanks

  • 9550 is to america and 95220 is for europe

  • i want to know is this gps built in this phone working well

  • I'm thinking of getting one, is the phone really good?

  • for the battery and network problem, when there is no network and the phone is not in use, the battery drains. That's a normal thing, not just for blackberry.

  • hey mike, i used to have the same problem,but i found out how to get rid of that,just make sure you don't let your phone battery runs down to " low battery", that means you should charge your phone before the battery life runs down to "low battery". so you have to take out your battery to restart your phone,start to use your phone as what i said,then that not going to happen again:)

  • I mean you should refresh it with File manager.

  • baught my bb 2 9550 last week,i have a question 1 after inserting my sim, there is "edge" displayed continusly and there is a "aim" like under edge sign,is it normal or can it be turned off. 2 once i had kept my 9550 in my loker of my office,but after finishing my office hours the battry had drained.Before keeping it in the loker it was full, since there is a net work problem in the loker room area so my queation is dose it effect in any way of loosing battry power since cell phone cannot connect to a network in the loker. 3 the other day the network bars were full but i was not abail to call or recive a call,when some one was trying to call me my cell phone was showing not reachable, but after switching off and turning on the network it was working fine is this a network problem or cell problem. 4 pls suggest me how i can increase my stand by time of my cell. 5 I am using 9550 in india with a airtel sim.

  • *Maybe cause of your network traffic. *Update your OS menu-option-advance options-wireless update

  • drain your batterry first until your BB can't operated. pull out your batterry "only" 1 minute. put it back and charge until full. it named callibrate Batterry. Hope you'll enjoy your Storm2 then...

  • I boought my BB storm 2 three days ago and Im very happy, it is the best phone that I have known, the touch pad works perfect, simply select any icon with one touch, this lights and then just click. I recommend you.

  • uk phones are meant to be used in uk not in india

  • Just received mine this morning will give you an update about hands-on-experience update later on

  • is it good phone?? which one better, is it 9520 or this one??

  • hi

  • I can't wait to get this phone. I should have gone to the store instead of calling verizon and ordering it because it seems that i will have waited about 5 days instead of the 2 that they said it would take for it to get to my house. So far their customer service is good in the sense that you can get to talk to someone quickly, but they seem to be pretty incompetent. It took them over 20 minutes to see where my order was, and they said I would receive an email telling me when my order has been shipped and nothing yet...

  • Hi guys. I have a BB9550 and i ave unlocked it tso i can use it on different networks. It was fine for 3 months or so but recently it doesn't pick up the required blackberry services I require. At the moment it is a really expensive calling and texting phone. no email. Is there a way I can fix this?

  • great phone, the only thing is..... how do i turn the ? and the ! the right way up??

  • Throw it away then.

  • This is the worst phone I have encountered: screen froze within two hours. Despite software upgrade and new sim card, I have had repeated dropped calls, unintended rejected calls, unresponsive touchscreen, and failure to send attachments to MMSes. Touchpad keys don't appear to be well aligned. Does not have business card facility, and can't save contacts from phone memory to sim card. One massive frustration!

  • This phone being a dual CDMA / GSM Phone meant for the USA. That said, you can definitely purchase an unlocked phone in the Indian Market where GSM will work in india for any carrier but CDMA will not function.

  • i dont know too

  • why this phone cannot be used in INDIA ?

  • you have to go into "settings", "setup email", then click on the email you are wanting to edit, there should be an "edit" option then about mid way you will see where it says "signature" you can create whatever you want there, or leave it blank, once you do that it will ask you for your password to that email account and its done, (if you have multiple email accounts sync'ed you have to repeat above steps for each email account)

  • yes you can, go to setup (email accounts)in the options you can change it to what ever signature you want....say..''i love my mom''. and the next mail you send would have that at the bottom. I hope this helps.

  • Don't know why you would want to :) but if you go into your messages, click on the blackberry button, select options, select Email Settings, scroll down to "Use Auto Signature" and change the text in the box...

  • Thanks to your reply, my provider (globe) also told me the same thing but not in detailed. thanks to your help, i will try it out.

  • thanks for your reply, i will try it out. and one thing more, how can i activate my BB messenger? can someone help me how to use it. Thanks!

  • Can any one help me, I would like to know if it's possible to have this "Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device" removed.

  • 16gig

  • You will need a BIS plan to use blackberry services. But then again, you can edit your Advanced Options in the TCP/IP and activate APN (http.globe.com.ph) for prepaid and (internet.globe.com.ph) for postpaid. Opera mini will work and other internet features but some specific for BB may not. Try it out, prepaid lines can have unlimited 24hrs access for 20 pesos so you can test all day.

  • Good day to all. Thanx for given to small ppl like us the opp to voice our opinions . The 9550 is a great phone. And I am a iPhone user. The phone is not really touch but a tap screen, but that's cool u can learn to use it. I like the bb service and that if any ones has a bb u can communicate with them. I've seen my cellular uses concerning mins drop considerably since I got . But the one complain I do have about it IT STICKS TO MUCH. AND I ALWAYS HAVE TO RESTART IT.I had other bb's before but not with this problem. But I must say that since I got it the first week I couldn't put it down. I hadn't use my iphone that much because it works beta with wi-fi . And the battery life isn't that great with the bb. But its a good phone though. Thank you. Pablo.

  • For flash the iPhone wins... For works... BlackBerry wins... And the iTouch is so much cheaper if you need fun! Get a simple phone on the side!

  • I am now using BB 9700 and I really like this device. I think you should really think about trying the touch screen before switching, cause touch is fun but not always as cool as we think. In order t answer your question if you still go with a storm, buy storm 2. Really better!

  • I think you should go on the BLackberry web site, There is a lot of application you can add to your device in order to get more from it. Think you should find some application to add, it was already avalable a few years ago.

  • I guess the most important for you is to have a device you'll like, for a cheeper price and querty keybord, every provider have a new kind of device they offer,it is phone with key board instead of smartphone with is not the best for you I think. Look for Neon or Xenon from LG... Samsung, Nokia they all provide phone with a slider kquerty key bord, they are full of diffrent interesting applications that will better fits your needs.

  • Here in Canada the provioder is Telus, with Telus the way it works is that you are on CDMA network, but when roaming outside Canada the device could work with any network that has partener ship with Telus GSM or CDMA.

  • Any Blackberry works with BlackBerry Internet Service, witch is free, this is some type of account you open on the web, you can get a free email adress, than you can add up to 10 diffrent email adress that will sync in the device. You can also set up auto signature for each adress, as well as specific filter. The device could also work with BES witch is Blackberry enterprise service, usually set up for working puposes. Witch it will help you.

  • whats this yar no FM radio

  • Hi everyone, Ive heard the below about Storm2 9550. Is this correct? 1. No email support without BlackBerry Internet Service account 2. No web browser Flash support

  • Thanks for your opinions to solve my problem. And I have one different problem with my BB Storm2 9550, I use it for prepaid simcard in my country (Cambodia) and this phone doesn't know the command to request object from service provider such as *xxx# and send.

  • The CDMA number just inject number. The card slot just for SIM card, not for R-UIM card/CDMA card. But you can browse with EV-DO Rev A connection, or by HSDPA connection. Its like BB Tour 9630

  • The CDMA number just inject number. The card slot just for SIM card, not for R-UIM card/CDMA card. But you can browse with EV-DO RevA network, or by HSDPA network.

  • I recomend you Nokia or even any mobile with android is cool too, you have not just a mobile phone where you can chat...you have entertaintment too and cooler features.

  • Personally, i think this is the worst brand in Mobile Phones. I don´t see any feature that any other brand could envy. Chat? you can chat and contact from any other mobile, you don´t need a special pin to contact others. Believe me, there are better options!

  • wanna ask, is that really GSM/CDMA or dual mode simcard?????? thqz

  • i bought this phone, after one month the touch sensitivity got problem so i sent back to blackberry and now i got back. I like this phone pretty much, nice looking, also i like the touch screen, it feels so special and different from others. But it's heavy....

  • guys,does double tap/press in order to open an icon is only for icon menu or in every command???

  • I just got use to using my Storm and downloaded the I think its called the 5.1 upgrade...well its the worst decion I could have ever made I send over 5000 sms a month and the new version is NOT user friendly its opration is frustrating a very smal space to write the sms is given the question is can I go back to the original settings. If the storm 2 is anything like these new updates STAY FAR away from it. George Lehman [email protected]

Your sincere help in this regard will be quite a help. I'm in UAE on du plan.

  • whats better the iphione or the this one

  • when is this phone out in the UK

  • each of them have their own benifits..both are excellent mobiles...if you want to take good pictures(photo freak)and love music i suggest you to go for sony erricson satio....if you use your ph officially(for emails.chat. msgs,youtube) then go for black berry storm 2.

  • I think storm is better,,, for media... If you want a camera phone, better head for satio... But pixon12 is better than satio

  • i think storm better...

  • hey guys, i want to buy a new phone.. so i want ur opinion.. which one is better?? SATIO or STORM2 9550?

  • Yes you can use a Storm2 as a modem - I'm using one now :o). Here's how: also works with a usb cable. Be careful about you data bundle or you'll run up a big bill

  • I have a q about this phone, please answer me :) Does storm 2 9550 have a feature internet tethering so i can use my bb as a modem and use my laptop to surfing the internet? Thx

  • does it support windows or not PDA PACAGE

  • try resend the servise books to your handset via the options, advanced opotions. this may hel[p

  • 1. don't change any theme other than the original verizon. it'll reset by itself out of a suddent very often. 2. browser will disappear, and so will the sms, mms icon 3. the signal often SOS only, and your call conversation often cut off. 4. the application "City ID" is so annoying. Sometime it's on by itself after you received message(s). It's useless if you are not in the verizon network area. everything will back to normal when you set the theme back to its original state.

  • open themes and take any theme!BB lus browser when you chenge themes.:)this is bug on bbery os

  • My browser has been deleted..lost??!I can no longer use it in wifi areas. Though it has connection to wifi...I can open any sitre due to no browser.. HELP!!Anyone who knows how to troubleshoot this?

  • plz i have download the windows live messenger for blackberry but i cannot sign in it say data service unavailable is there any solution ??

  • 2G aka GSM 3G aka UMTS those two Gs are networks, some countries have 2G and others 3G, 3G supports more users and services while 2G doesn't. Google it to know the services.

  • anybody could answer my stupid question ... ''what is the diffrence between 2G and 3G....and what kind of phone are 2G and 3G...thank you...

  • question please... is the the 9550's 3G version only supported by Verizon which makes the it At&t non-3G and in other networks where the GSM-system is used? the BB 9520 supports worldwide 3G, and BB 9550 supports verizon's 3G only and not worldwide? thanks...

  • Bought this 9550 and return it a day later due to VERY WEAK SIGNAL GSM RECEPTION !!! Stupid RIM ...Other than that I love the phone sigh...exchange it to 9700 and excellent signal reception as with my previous BB Javelin.

  • where can find the prices of all the phones posted here?

  • Two days max. It's just that always have many things open everytime. E-mial, facebook, and others. Otherwise, i do se it could last me 3-4 days. I pause

  • can any one tell me whether this handset has simcard/ruim slot? because the other blackberry cdma are always 'inject' the number thx

  • This an excellent move made by blackberry. Typing so smooth, connection is good and stable, call quality is slightly above average, ringtone is good but honestly it doesn't sound loud enough for me (or it's just my ear?) For those experiencing disconnected call and unstable touch screen, i recommend to upgrade to newer/newest OS as to conserve battery life too. You may switch your network to 2G to conserve power, but fortunately we can switch to 3G when we need faster data rate. Currently i'm using my 9550 as message centre and not for making phone calls.

  • blackberry is best for wifi

  • i dont knw why this phone sleep anytime around 10pm if am not using it.the network is always swicth of.

  • I bought it on January 20/2010 and the battery is not good enough it doesn't last 5 hours, only about 3. I'm not using WIFI neither Bluetooth, only 3G and not surfing the internet a lot, and it only works for 3 hours.

  • Salomondrin storm 2 reviews give me a clue about the old and new build up for storm 2.. It has differences in clicking and the cracks light problem bellow the screen.. Does anyone know, how can I get the new build up storm 2 from the store?? Is there any code/mark or something else on the box? Please help me, I will buy storm 2 in a few days Thank you

  • almost all people sent question in this posting.. review please =) I suddenly loves STORM2.. I have x1 and gemini.. Since my x1 keypad starts to error on the hardware, and bored of it contents, also the failure story about x1, and next SATIO software problems.. SE makes me disappointed of it brand and products.. Because of that, I sacrifice my passion about having great camera phone instead I decide to sell my phones and gets STORM2.. just for information, my gemini more active a lot than my x1, my x1 already got a veggie state for several months hahaha.. LOL.. I just realized the function of online phone 24/7 and BB OS thing contents are more USEFUL than the ordinary phone - so so OS - even with very GREAT camera =)

  • good day.i just want to ask regarding this black berry storm 2 9550 if it will works here in europe or asia cause its states that only in U.S. cause i have my black berry storm 1.im interested with this new one if its work in europe or asia.thanks.

  • can anyone tell me what is the difference between the 9520 and the 9550, and what there is a substantial price increase for the 9520 over the 9550???

  • has to be one of the best looking handsets on the market, no doubt...but i sent my original back because of its atrocious lack of std features just about all other phones have - decent camera, decent loudspeaker, a radio, video calling cam, decent internet browsing - no flash & many java apps just wont open with the bb browser...yes the phone does the emails like a dream. the storm could be the best phone, sticking right to the iphone & the likes but RIM just haven't delivered on this new adaptation of the storm, it still has killer looks, but given RIM has had a few years to update this phone to be the world beater it should be, they've failed remarkably & re-released a phone that would've been great in 2005 not in 2010 onwards. epic fail.

  • can some one please help me on this issue. Just got the phone unlocked. It is recognizing only orange thats all, any other operator none (vodafone, t-mobile). can some 1 tell me whats the prob is really is? while talking got probs like call ending by 30 sec and somethg.

  • Where can i get this phone on a uk contract???

  • Anyone knows how to remove target-like icon (gps icon) from your screen? The icon looks like target sign placed below the signal, thx in advance

  • Options-Security- Advanced security - memory cleaning - status enabled

  • What is memory cleaning? How to you turn it on?

  • can we use SKYPE in this handset

  • I use it for 2-4 days without charging. Depends on my use. If I use 3G and wifi a lot it lasts 2 days min. I turn memory cleaning on every time I push the power button. It saves a lot of battery power.

  • i have the black berry curve 8520 it cant detect the wifi....

  • Many people complain about the clicking part or the whole typing process. To me, it just a matter getting use to it.

  • please tell me your battery of storm 9550 how many times without charging

  • I don't think its scratch resistant but it does not get scratched easily. Its with my keys sometimes by accident and no scratch at all.

  • is the screen scratch resistant??

  • It costs 7200ZAR. This is a very powerful business tool, very interactive. I have for just three days and ya, I love it.

  • Buy it from homeshopping.com or Hafeez centre, Lahore

  • Would any body please help me from where I can get this firmware in Pakistan.

  • how much

  • I tend to drop calls on this phone. Seems a hardware issue. Very irritating

  • it depends do you prefer a qwerty keyboard or a touchscreen overall they`re just the same

  • y on earth bb only launch this product in US only?? what happen to another country??

  • Is this better than 9700 Bold 2? Thank you very much. Im planning on buying one.

  • Yes, the dropped calls problem is mostly solved if you load the leaked .428

  • i love the phone that you made and the style of the phone is skinny this phone is really nice. i think it is better than the droid and iphone 3gs blacknerry rocks

  • I bought an unlocked storm 9550 and it drops calls. Seems this is a serious issue as I read on many forums. Does upgrading to OS .428 help?

  • motorla droid!! anyday! it has a big screen. qwerty keyboard, android 2.0 UI. its awesome

  • I just bought the Blackberry Storm...no big problems with it yet...its just kinda complex thats all...but im wondering..is there no radio in the BB storm 9550?? Or an fm sender ??? Does anyone have any comments on the loadspeaker? Thanks

  • For functionality i think Storm 2 is the best option, the one lacking from this handset is the screen color depth. Pick iphone 3gs if you're gonna use it for multimedia purpose, watching videos, etc. So, suit yourself. Hope it helps.

  • i'm thinking of buying a new phone but cant decide which one is better between Blackberry Storm2 vs iPhone 3GS vs Motorola Milestone vs Nokia X6? ur opinion pls!

  • I'm really happy with this phone. With the new OS leak .428, almost all the problems being faced by Storm 1 users are finally sorted out. I love it, and highly recommend it.

  • wtf bra??????

  • there's still no BlackBerry that has a 16M Colors display... sad to say :(

  • if you know how to use this this is great phone, worth to carry (little heavy)intersting UI . no any problem. can buy $400 in market. exelent audio quality with headphone supplied and bosch headphone.

  • i hope it's a service provider problem, mine is working fine for now.

  • Odin (pronounced /ˈoʊdɨn/ from Old Norse ��inn), is considered the chief god in Norse paganism and the ruler of Asgard. Homologous with the Anglo-Saxon Wōden and the Old High German Wotan, it is descended from Proto-Germanic *Wōđinaz or *Wōđanaz. The name Odin is generally accepted as the modern translation; although, in some cases, older translations of his name may be used or preferred. His name is related to ō�r, meaning "fury, excitation," besides "mind," or "poetry." His role, like many of the Norse gods, is complex. He is considered a principal member of the �sir (Norse Pantheon) and is associated with wisdom, war, battle, and death, and also magic, poetry, prophecy, victory, and the hunt.

  • Mind too... Anybody knows whats wrong with it? Or is it really the problem of Storm2 9550?

  • bb should learn how to make a good touchscreen phone. htc is far better, and not much complaint on that type of hp

  • My Storm 2 is dropping calls like hot potatoes. Really sad to see such a serious problem in apparently a good phone.

  • how many number do i can have in the phone memory

  • Maybe you should learn to spell "Grammar" before you talk about people being illiterate?

  • Seriously bad phone. Glitchy software and voice loss experienced by many users during connected calls

  • it's not "grammer" you should say, "grammatically wrong!" hohoho!:D

  • before you start knocking the phone you should make sure your grammer is correct cause it takes away all your credibility when u appear illiterate.

  • hmmm...what is that mean???blackberry is still the worst ever phone...i have storm for 1 month, and i sell it,coz, that phone is a "junk" and what about with 9550???are this phone is still "junk"???

  • Everybody has different takes as to what phones are #1 to #5. Different web sites rank phones #1 to #5. Buy the phone that meets your needs not what others think about phones. Who's to say their not paid to say what they say about phone (ranks).

  • 1. HD2 2. Omnia II 3. Omnia HD 4. iPhone 3gs

  • the size of the ram for the new blackberry 9550 is 128 ram and the rom 192

  • The I Phone is great for the gimmicks and for the person who wants to stuff about but the battery life of an I phone is absolutely terrible. You can not beat the Blackberry range of devices and their overall features and performance if you are a serious business phone user.

  • how to add the templates(mail or sms)

  • We made a preview of BlackBerry Storm2 here,

  • tray going CRACKBERRY.COM for all blackberry headset info.

  • I want to know the capacity of the new blackberry storm2 9550 RAM & CPU? Many thaks,

  • very disgusting,all blackberry storms are the same in appearance.i want something new and they are too much ecpensive!!!!!!!

  • Maybe, because BlackBerry does not send models beforehand, especially not to GSMArena

  • Why GSMarena not yet review Blackberry Storm2 ? Why GSMarena always way behind to review if it come about Blackberry device? Review Please.......

  • Why still 65k colours and poor resolution in late 2009 ???

  • GSMarena, Storm2 review please......

  • Blackberry Storm 2 already sold by verizon. Why GSMarena never review it?

  • Up to 5 h (2G) / Up to 6 h (3G) ??? wow this is new to me!!!!!!

  • The phone is already being sold by Verizon. Why GSMarena is still showing its "expected release date?"

  • 2 gb intrnal is not selfish plus it has a trans flas slot up to 16 gb

  • yes if you go to ebay and by a unlock sim card for 5.99 you

  • The Iphone is still the best phone hands down!!!

  • Does anyone know if the Storm 2 9550 will reach Canadian service providers like Telus or Bell mobility. The original Storm was a huge flop with both providers in Canada Hopefully the Storm 2 will soon hit the shelves for us freezing Canadians and lets hope this device doesn't encounter that problem as its predecessor

  • Why is bb so selfish with memory?

  • it will not matter the Iphone does not show a better piture compared to the javlin , bold or storm with it's 16m colour display so get a grip.

  • I'm told that the touchscreen on BBs are not the same as on other touch phones. As in the BB we have to actually press on specific icons rather than be able to glide your finger on the screen. Is this true even for the Storm 2 9550?

  • I really want to have that phone,with the wireless its more better when i will be in travel...

  • Does anyone know why the new BB Bold that is coming out has a larger battery capacity and faster processor than the Storm 2??? I would think that the Storm would need both of these rather than the Bold due to its larger screen. The Bold is a nice looking phone as well but its only for ATT and Tmobile so I won't be getting one anyway.

  • Verizon only

  • i like this phone

  • Hey all , I'm a BB lover and I think this device will beat many other devices on the market as soon as it's out ... So all what I can say to those who are BB haters is to watch ur back away cuz u'll be ashamed . Cheers !!

  • lovely phone.plannin to buy one

  • Its what the storm should have been in the first place!

  • Coolest gadget from Blackberry yet.

  • Is this phone going to be for Verizon or another carrier? Anyone know?

  • superbbbb!! blackberry version is always friendly user! i cannot wait to buy this phone!! :)

  • looks good

  • why for the usa market only?

  • how do you have a storm 2?

  • i think that the talk time in 3G is wrong..cuz talk time in 3G should be less than 2G as it drains alot of power

  • its a good phone i like it. i have one and it takes nice picture

  • 65k colors???why not 16M colors??16m has a better screen image quality!!!65k colors is a great failure..

  • If you like BB, just get with QWERTY key and not touchscreen. GO for SAMSUNG OMNIA 2 or iPhone if you like the touchscreen phone... First STORM make me dissapointed..just change to BOLD,really amazing..when the BOLD 2 launch i will consider it too....

  • I completely agree to you. It simply was a piece of electronic JUNK !! Infact BB added electronic-waste into environment.

  • BEWARE !! The earlier version BB Storm 9500 was SUPER FLOP considering battery life. It hardly had stand-by time of 2-3 hrs. in one charge (leave aside talk-time) and had to be recharged 3-4 times in a single day depending upon usage. It really was disappointing for all early birds and most of them had to dump those for price of peanuts. Though specs. on gsmarena.com shows talk-time of 5:30 mins.& standy-by of 360 hrs. But truly it isn't. Don't know why they haven't changed that info. Also don't know why a company like BB released such a poor performer and if they did, why didn't they withdrew it quickly. So pls. BEWARE before buying BB Storm 2.

  • where is radio blackberry ? you can call blackberry comprany to blackradioberry

  • Junk, absolutley junk. New screen, Wi-Fi, and 1GB moree memory? how is that innovation, generally the same as the 9500. Junk!

  • crap

  • What is the diference between 9550 and 9520???

  • totally not
