How to Reset your Blackberry: Fix minor issues

Good day guys... just two days to xmas hope you all are having fun.

Phones tend to be all fun and smooth and fast when it is new and shiny but when time goes on it starts to age and lag which is so annoying... in the case of blackberry sometimes it just freeze and nothing works at all or it just gets too slow that you feel like hitting it on the wall, before you toss your phone read through these simple ways to fix some Blackberry issues with just a reset.

1. Perform a Hard Reset
This is so easy all you have to do is open the back cover of your blackberry and remove the battery wait for like 30 seconds and put the battery back and place back the back cover :)

• if you have a Blackberry Z10 just press and hold the power button on the top of the phone for about 10 seconds to perform a hard reset. 

2. Perform a Soft Reset
To perform a soft reset you should have a Blackberry phone with QWERTY keypad, all you need to do is press and hold the "Alt" key, press and hold the Right "Shift" key, press and hold the "Backspace/Delete" key all together then wait for the Blackberry to Reset, when the screen turns off you can release the keys you're holding and wait for sometime for it to boot.

3. Perform a Factory Reset
A factory reset or security wipe should only be the last resort if all else fails, this will erase all your phone data and personal information leaving the phone as it was when you bought it so be sure you want to do it before you proceed. Open the options on your home screen, select Security Settings and in the security settings menu select Security Wipe. Choose what you want to erase by checking the checkboxes or if you want to erase everything then check all the checkbox. Enter the code "blackberry" into the box and then select wipe. Wait for the phone to complete the wipe process, it might reset multiple times while on this just wait till its done and rebooted.

Hopefully the above methods will fix your Blackberry headache but if it doesn't or if you have a more complex issue or ran into any problem while on it, post on the comment and we'll help you fix it and answer your questions.

Update: Etisalat Bis is still working on Android, Iphone and pc

Good morning guys, most of us knew about the Etisalat Bis capped with 3gb and goes for just 1k that is working on non bb devices, many subscribers were unable to browse with their own and some believed that it has been blocked, some new subscribers say that it stops when they exhaust their bb10 15mb, I'm glad to tell you that there is a fix :) I too ran into the same issue when I exhausted my subscription and tried to subscribe again.

The Etisalat Bis is still working on non bb devices and very fast too so if yours has stopped or you want to subscribe this is how to go about it.

1. Get a blackberry phone
2. Insert the etisalat sim in it and you'll notice that you can't use bbm on it with the 3gb data you have
3. Dial 200 to call etisalat customer care, tell them that you subscribed for bb complete package that they should activate it for you
4. When its activated browse with it on that same blackberry and try to ping with bbm to make sure it worked
5. Subscribe for bb10 15mb with that blackberry and wait for a confirmation sms that the bb10 daily bis subscription is active
6. Remove the sim and put it in any device you wish then set your apn to blackberryx.net on that device and blaze on!

For new subscribers that don't know how to subscribe check here for the full tutorial 
then follow the above fix to make it work, or rather use a bb device for the whole thing.

This worked for me so drop your comment if you run into any problem while on it, I'll be here to answer all your questions.

How to optimise windows 7

Our computer tend to slow down and sometimes even crawl, take ages to load a program and do all annoying slow stuffs after we use it a long time and download and install programs and even antivirus software from the internet.

There are several techniques to use to speed up and optimize windows 7 with special features and settings exclusive to the operating system.


1. Uninstall the programs you don't use
Programs you install take up space and slow down the computer, some manufactures preinstall optional programs like virus scanners that you probably don't need and you may not use. Uninstall them to free up space and speed up your computer.

2. Run Disk Cleanup
Disk Clean up deletes unnecessary files that you do not need and it also empty the recycle bin, this will help free up more space and speed up the computer.

3. Run the Disk Defragmenter
Use the Disk Defragmenter to rearrange fragmented data on your computer which occurs when your computer doesn't have enough space or resources to store files as a whole. In this case, components of the file are separated and rearranged to fill up other gaps caused by deleted files. The Disk Defragmenter will optimize your computer by rearranging fragmented data into places that will speed up Windows 7.

4. Don't run too many programs at once
Running too many programs and applications at once will slow down your computer, limit open programs by closing any program that you are not using.

5. Restart your computer once in a while
This process will help free up and clear memory by stopping programs that continue to run in your taskbar or unseen on your operating system.

with these 5 techniques you can get your slow computer to run faster.
