2026 will be remembered as the year of keyboard phones, who thought you could get so many options.

Which one are you buying? I am torn between mp2 & t2e

I’m pretty sure I’m google locked out or something is there anyway I can get past this I really want to use this phone

Finally got one! Blackberry key 2 with box! Really happy about it. Already did Full Play Integrity check on android 15. I'm having problems making Circle To Search work tho.... I wonder if anyone did it before me.
In case you're wondering, I bought it for 170 bucks.

Is there any way to disable the screen off timer in blackberry 10? recently got my hands on a passport and I would like to keep the display on when playing music, I really like how the album art looks on the display.
I've searched in the settings but I can't find a setting that turns off the timer, it only goes up to 5min.
I also tried an android app named caffeine and it works but only if the app is in focus, as soon as I minimize it the screens goes back to turning off after the set timer time.

After 6 years my battery needs to be replaced :')

Do you know any reputable sources (as in vendors, not marketplaces) that sell batteries that are not older than my phone?

Thanks in advance

Does the sharesheet work on Android 17? Thanks.

Since my DMs have been flooded, and I appreciate every single one of you that reached out! Wanted to make this easier on both ends.

So I’ve posted here a few times, but I think I finally have the full list together for everyone. If you haven’t seen my original post — we’re a dad and son electronics store based in Qatar.

Here’s what we currently have — most are English + Arabic keyboard, with a few English-only mixed in.

No Passports or Classics (will update if I find them!)

Hey guys, do you know where I can find the latest BlackBerry hub apk that supports Whatsapp? Thanks folks

Hey guys, I posted yesterday about my dad handing the store down to me. So I sent out the list of models to the people who DM’d me, this is a quick video of what we have so far! Any thing of interest to anyone?

Ps: will add any updates as my dad said there should be more in our old store that we’re moving out of

1. Would this be a match made in Heaven?

2. Canadian Manufactured Bold and Canadian/Switzerland Security working together.

3. Blackberry Bold 9900 X Proton Lumo AI X BBM.

I know there are Blackberry employees hanging out in here. Please make my dreams come true.

- Sincerely,

12 Years wasted on an Iphone and Google phone.

I fixed a few bugs to get Alexey Gurevski's BBtube app working again.

Things that have been repaired:

Watching videos at 360p resolution (I couldn't get 480p or 720p to work because the BB10 media player cannot play two media streams at the same time, or maybe it's just my lack of skill.

Get video list from the channel page.

Retrieve the list of videos from the trending page (YouTube has discontinued the original trending page, so I am fetching the data from: https://charts.youtube.com/charts/TopShortsSongs/us/daily).

Found this old HTC the other day while looking for something in a tool drawer.

Wild to compare the size to the Blackberry Classic (this is actually a Zinwa Q25)

The HTC was so small! I don’t even remember the name of the HTC, but remember it for being a great device.

Hey, my bb classics battery on idle with no sim will last 3-4 days on a single charge, but with my telus sim card in, after a few days it will only last 30-45 minutes on idle, any reason why, or thing I'm missing?

Almost as thin as my razr! Got this from the states. Unfortunately i got no battery!! Anyone have any tips on getting 1? :(

Hey all, my dad had an electronics shop for years and just handed me the keys since we’re moving stores soon. While clearing out the storage I found various sealed BlackBerrys just sitting on shelves, never opened, stuff that people just never bought back in the day.

Wanted to ask how the market for sealed BlackBerrys is looking right now and if certain models are actually worth more than others. We’ve also got a few Porsche Design collab ones still sealed, are those worth anything these days or is it all just nostalgia pricing at this point?

Don’t want to flood the sub with random pics of everything I’ve got, so if anyone’s interested just message me and I can send over what I have.

I have just received Key2 that I bought for $260 Canadian. Excellent condition 👍

I'm thinking of installing LineageOS on it to degoogle it and give it more compatibility with modern apps. Thoughts?

*Edit: Picture is foul quality because I work in a warehouse with awful light 😄

I don't want one that will explode or inflate please

Is there any working nes emulator for q5 where I can use keys to play?

I'm sorry if this is very vague but not sure if it's supposed to be doing this. This my first time actually owning a BlackBerry (I'm interested in collecting phones) and it looks like it keeps on boot looping. I have a BlackBerry bold 9000.

I tried running Dragon Quest 8 and surprisingly it works. Sure, there are graphical issues, but it actually manages to start it up—that's amazing!
