Yahoo Messenger on Blackberry

One of my friends asked me why does her downloaded yahoo messenger is not working with her blackberry? Asking questions like

1. Who is your service provider? Etisalat
2. Is your SIM in post paid or pre-paid? pre-paid
3. Does your service provider supports this software? she don't know.

So without any further adieu I called the service provider if they support YM on blackberry (dial 101 on your mobile and select appropriate buttons @ the voice prompt). Unfortunately, Etisalat of UAE don't support YM on blackberry, whether you're post or pre-paid service enabled. Google talk is supported though, yey!

How to activate BES using etisalat SIM

BES is a blackberry enterprise service. It is being offered also by Etisalat. For this case, our company has a host server from Intermedia, and one of my boss purchased a blackberry with Etisalat SIM and he wanted to check his emails right on his blackberry, even when he is out of the country (UAE). Things that I done were

1. To make sure that his SIM has enabled BES services from Etisalat. Our company wrote a letter to activate the service on that particular SIM plus roaming capabilities too.

2. Next was to wait until Etisalat activates the request.

3. Once activated, make sure that the right SIM is inserted (you cannot use another Etisalat SIM to activate the service on another SIM).

4. Go outside to make sure that you are getting VERY STRONG signal for your blackberry (GPRS/EDGE)

5. Click on BB icon

6. Options

7. Advanced Options

8. Enterprise Activation

9. type the email address and password for your blackberry enterprise service (the password will be different from your usual outlook email password)

10. Press BB icon

11. Select ACTIVATE

Wait until all the service is activated and complete, then that's it.

How to remove Etisalat's "registration" application in blackberry?

The software that you can download from an SMS sent by Etisalat is named "Registration". The software tends to provide upgrades and to improve performance of the phone, as what was described by the biggest telecomms provider in the UAE. Unfortunately, this is not a RIM-authorized service, and so they (RIM) created this solution so that the software will be removed from your blackberry so that your phones will not send out messages into the server without you knowing it. RIM's solutions to blackberry phones are not sent out through messages but rather can be downloaded from blackberry site, FYI. Further FYI, RIM is a company that provides sky-rocketing solutions for wireless mobility applications and the like.
1. Using your blackberry phones, go to http://blackberry.com/registrationappremover and install the software.
2. Using your computer, install the registration app remover.
3. Follow on screen instructions.
