What the letters stand for and is there any other internet service data that I can use. I'm really bout to hate this phone.

And my other issue is I connect to WiFi just about any where else but the phone will not allow me to connect to my WiFi at home. When I try it says Avoided poor internet connection... All I ask for is an explanation why this is and/or tell me how I can fix these problems on my phone. Thank you...

  • I have been using dual sim phones for some time now (beats carrying 2 phones) I persevered with an ETEN Glofiish DX900 (Acer Tempo DX900) for just over a year it was very problematic it�s battery life was pathetic but for a long time it was the only dual sim phone available with 3G capability. I have just purchased the Blu speed Q410 for a sixth of the price that I bought the DX900 for, and it has proved to be a much better investment. My work provides me with a phone that is for business use only, any personal calls made on this phone I have to pay for. My work chooses to utilise Telstra because they have the best coverage but they are also the most expensive. I have a personal phone and utilise the �3� network because they offer very reasonable rates and provide quite good service. Both are 3G networks and both will roam on the GSM network. In summary, I want a phone to make phone calls on. I don�t care about cameras or music or games etc. For me the Blu Speed Q410 ticks all the boxes, the voice clarity is good (I�ve found voice clarity to be really substandard on similarly priced phones) The price is excellent for the features that you get, the Bluetooth seamlessly pairs with head units that I have found Nokia�s to struggle with, the battery life is excellent (have had it a week and charged it once) and it�s easy to use. Really for the price I can�t ask for more.

  • why isn't my msn messenger on my blu phone working??? i'm not getting all my contacts. and how do i get messenger for mobile

  • where do I find the wifi icon on my blu fone?

  • well I really like this phone and I used to have problems with finding bluetooth but after reading a comment I pressed *#666666# and I THINK I unlock bluetooth. and if I press the correct keys how do I lock it?? (:

  • where do i get the bluetooth

  • Does anyone know how to hide/show your caller I.D?? i cannot seem to find that option anywhere....

  • Well in my opinion, I find the Blu Speed to be the best Blu phone but not better than The Blu Tango. I think if you are a on the go type of person the Blu is the right choice.

  • RSK means "Right Selection Key" so its the key on the right next to then END key. just tap that to unlock.

  • can u please be more specific? im having trouble bc i cant answer nor send messages cus i guess my keypad is locked please help.

  • there are 2 versions of the phone. the Q400 model is Single SIM Only, and the Q410 model is DUAL SIM... it states that on the gsm arena specification page

  • Is this phone a dual sim?there is onlt one space for one sim at a time

  • were you able to get it work dual sim/dual standby? I am in Canada and use bell and rogers. when I put 2 sim cards in it wont boot properly. Have a I missed a setting or something? Thanks in advance

  • I just received this phone and use Bell and Rogers. When I insert both SIM cards and then start the phone up, it loads the "blu" screen, then says searching and then does like a white screen to searching flash sequence. Can anyone tell me why it doesn't seem to want to read both of my SIMs? I have it to dual sim open. Thanks

  • I had to try all different keys before I got to unlock the keypad...lol you need to press the key next to the hangup button then hit the space key and it unlocks

  • I had to try all different keys before I got to unlock the keypad...lol you need to press the key next to the hangup button then hit the space key and it unlocks

  • How do i unlock the keypad? What is RSK key?

  • Is the same phone like this Allview Q1

  • Why chinese phone? There are no Chinese phones with 3G, this is not a Chinese phone. Is nokia made in china also a Chinese phone? This phone is carried by thousands of retailers, maybe not in your country. I bought mine in Mexico and it's a great phone. Love it.

  • From the post of hermit This phone is really a brandish chinese phone! No doubt few retailers carry it!

  • No it doesn't do that. On mine, I set preferred input to 'abc', go into notes and start writing, any time I hit the two shift keys it changes the input selection. Since there's around 20 input selections and language choices you have to cycle all the way around. I just want the shift keys to be shift keys. Also pretty sure the j2me on this phone is buggy. It's pretty slow and wouldn't see my bluetooth gps module.

  • on the kayboard it keeps going back to spanish T9, you need to go to setttings and set default to regular abc tap, then it will resolve the issue

  • Thanks for that, bluetooth does work. Trying to get my bluetooth GPS working but that's another story. Since you seem to know about the inner workings of this phone, any chance you know a solution to a bug with the keyboard input selection? The shift keys changes the input selection instead of being shift keys, which makes the keyboard next to impossible to use.

  • the phone does have bluetooth use this code to unlock it *#666666#

  • Ok got the phone today. I bought this as a spare travel phone in place for my Samsung Galaxy S. So this is not my main phone hence handons will be light in details. It runs some proprietary OS, probably Nucleus RTOS like all the other cheap Chinese phones. Comes with 1100mAh battery, but that may be just false labelling. Bad bits: 1) doesn't have bluetooth 2) doesn't have camera flash or torch 3) keyboard doesn't work on most java apps, you need to switch to edit mode 4) default browser is crap, defaults to Latin American settings (unchangable) 5) configuration for data and some UI is a tad bad 6) keyboard and trackpad are nothing to write about Good Bits: 1) does have 3G at 850/2100, see Telstra/3 networks here in Australia 2) dual standby, haven't test for dual active 3) can install other browsers, comes with Opera 4 mini as an app which you can't install, but I've install opera 5 mini and bolt browser. 4) about 80MB storage on phone, java sees 16MB ram heap Overall I do like it. Bear in mind that I wanted a cheap disposable phone will a large range of connectivity, and that's exactly what I got.

  • what operating system does this phone use? Extremely few retailers offering this phone?

  • After pondering forever about getting a spare travel phone, I settled for this one, mainly because Telstra network here in Australia is 850. Just purchased it from digitalsound_buy on ebay, will see how it goes.

  • What's your url and do you carry this phone?

  • You should soon be able to find this on ebay's 101mobile.

  • Good relationship between price & benefits. Enzo [email protected]

  • Still no retailer carrys this or other products from "Blu." "start-up company?

  • This brand is currently only available in USA and Latin America, around $150 retail good cost compared to other 3G with same features

  • where do you purchase this device?
