I have the classic but I assume that doesn't make a difference. Thanks, I'll do that. What is the system ranking in your battery usage?

One other thing to check. Go into the email settings and check to see how often it sweeps for emails. The lesser the time, the more battery it uses. Go into Setup folder, then go into each email account and check the sync interval.
I would post the screenshot of battery usage on CB classic board (open CB, swipe left on phone, select BB10 Hub, then classic board).

I had it on thirty minutes. I changed it to an hour, is that a good time setting you think? I'm gonna post about the settings on CB and I'll let you know what they say.

Doing that is your best bet. I get a lot of good info on that site.

Two more questions if you don't mind. Can you reccomend me a good BlackBerry car charger on Amazon that doesn't take a month to ship? I did look and found one made by BlackBerry but it takes a month plus to ship. In another thread I was told to be cautious with certain off brand chargers as they may hurt the battery life. Additionally, do I have to use Bing as my search engine or is there a way to make Google my default? TIA.

Go to crackberry and order a car charger.
Or order a BB car charger on ebay. you can get the OEM's for less than ten bucks.

ONe more thing about battery life. Some have said that when they removed kindle app, the battery life improved. The Amazon mobile site is pretty good if you don't use the app.

To change your search engine go into the web browser and start typing to create a search. In the upper right hand corner you should see a drop down menu with the Bing logo on it. Hit that drop down and select Google.
Can't help you with the car charger I'm using and old one I got with a Blackberry Bold from work years ago.

Thank yall. Don't think I have the Kindle app but do have the Amazon store. Just ordered the charger. Speaking of Amazon app store, how do I get it to stop notifying me everytime a new app update is ready? I've looked in settings and notifications etc and can't seem to figure it out. Same thing happens with Pandora, every new song it sends me a notification letting me know what song is on. Not that big a deal but kinda annoying.

Go to settings, then notifications, then choose a profile (normal, silent, etc), then you should see an option to customize app notifications. From there you can turn off Hub notifications and make any other changes you want.

Nope. Download android ghost commander app. Then open it up. In left frame, select applications. Then select an app. Then select manage. Turn off notifications.
Posted on 5/26/15 at 4:13 pm to prplhze2000
There's a couple ghost commander apps in the snap store, which specific one is it? TIA. Also, I tried the stuff you recommended Iberia, Pandora still gave me a notification when I played a song but maybe the other ones will work
Posted on 5/26/15 at 5:01 pm to The Connoisseur
I think File Manager. I got mine out of AA. I would probably use that one. You have to go into the Pandora app through GC and turn off the notifications. Its an android pain in the arse.

Conn. , I added more to my reply.

Ha I just assumed like most apps the Amazon App store wouldn't have it so I tried it on Snap. I think I somehow managed to figure it out. Thanks a lot. I'm such a BlackBerry noob.

Most of what I learned was through either trial and error or asking on crackberry
Trick of the day. Get a text and want to call instead of replying by text? Press and hold the name at the top of the screen. A short menu will appear to the right that will include call. You can do the same thing on your call log. Press the number or name you called and hold. A menu on the right side will pop up.

AT&T rolled out 10.3.2 update last night. Downloaded mine this morning.
Posted on 6/20/15 at 8:37 am to prplhze2000
I checked yesterday and it wasn't available. 4 more hours until it let's me check again. Did you use link or update OTA? I'm surprised as hell that AT&T are actually rolling out an update. I was always running a leak on my Q10 because they were so slow with updates.

Turn off data services and use WiFi. Try link also.
Posted on 6/20/15 at 1:30 pm to prplhze2000
I pulled it off of link. Haven't seen many changes so far. Been using it for about an hour.

Yup. Was supposed to be bug fixes. mine was 400 mb. Supposed to fix flickering. I noticed my camera focuses MUCH more quickly.
