Default Blackberry Expert Support tool

Please Login to Remove!

Has anyone tried this yet? I just set it up this morning, and love that they give a Enterprise Activation troubleshooting tool, it will verify that the provisioning is correct and if requested will send a test activation message to the users email. All TSupport subscribers will get this, though it looks like it's being rolled out over a few weeks.

I have Tx2 support, and I didn't receive any email about this.
I will call RIM today. Maybe a phased rollout.

The email said it was a phased rollout, all named contacts should be getting an email, probably within the next few weeks or less.

I didn't give a link because I figured it was best for everyone to wait until RIM had their accounts setup. And from the looks of the timestamps, you submitted your post 2 minutes after I did

Very cool, thanks.

Of course I just got my email and was able to get in

I decided to test the "Check if the BlackBerry smartphone is provisioned...." and put in the info for my personal BB (which is not on a BES, and should not have the BES plan)...and I got a green checkmark.

The green checkmark would indicate to me that the device has an enterprise plan....correct?

Interesting. I would imagine that would determine that the device is provisioned correctly. I tried a device here that I know isn't provisioned and I get a red X with this error.

The device is not ready for enterprise activation. Please contact your service provider to confirm that the BlackBerry smartphone has been activated for enterprise service.

So...that would tell me that the Sprint 'Talk/Data/Message Share' plan I have includes BES.

Very interesting.

But that tool is VERY nice. I don't know how many issues I've resolved by calling RIM to check if a device has the correct plan.

It's a start .. I wish it exposed the plan on the device but likely carriers won't extend that so if all I can rely on is a green check or red x it will suffice.

Nice additional little test when troubleshooting.
