Last week I received a PRIV from our AT&T rep to try out (I support mobile devices at work), my primary work phone is Verizon and I haven't committed to switch over yet so I've been using the BB in a limited fashion on WiFi but have a few questions which may help sway me. Overall I kinda like the device but there are few things I've been trying to figure out.
1) Is mail configured through the BES if one is available? I couldn't find a way to do enterprise activation - I'm not sure if thats because I'm not on a corporate BB plan, which was required in the past or if this just doesn't work with the BES like previous BB models. (Not a big deal, I manually configured mail, just curious of the true experience.
2) Is there any way to create folders within the APP drawer? I am currently using a Galaxy S6 Edge and that's definitely nice for organizing apps. I know it can be done on the home screen.
3) Is there a way to set which home screen is the default screen? I use 5 home screens, and keep the middle one as the true/default home screen (the one it goes to when I hit the home button) - then I swipe to the left for my calendars and then right for other things. Not a big deal, just curious if I'm missing an option. (I know some launchers offer this, I'm trying to stay stock, since the people I support will be using it that way).
3) The AT&T version seems to have wireless charging but it seems really finicky. I've actually only gotten it to work once. I have a generic/Verizon branded wireless charger. Where's the coils? I've tried it in all different positions on the stand but like I said, only got it to work once. (Edit - the coils seem to be on the left side.. If I put the PRIV on the wireless dock and let it hang off the right side a bit I have more success.)
4) Will the AT&T version work on Verizon if its unlocked? (I put a request into AT&T to unlock it, I haven't heard back yet but swapping SIMs when necessary would be awesome).
I'm sure I'll have more...
Thanks!
