Cell broadcasting
About cell broadcasting
Cell broadcasting is designed to enable wireless service providers to use SMS text messaging to send information to all BlackBerry® devices
in a specific geographical area simultaneously. You can receive cell broadcast messages that contain a specific type of information by
subscribing to a cell broadcast channel that provides that type of information. Different cell broadcast channels send different cell
broadcast messages. For example, one cell broadcast channel might send regular weather forecasts while another might send traffic
reports.
Prerequisites: Cell broadcasting
• Verify that your wireless service provider supports this feature.
• Verify that your SIM card is set up with a cell broadcast channel or your wireless service provider has provided you with the ID
for a cell broadcast channel.
• Verify that your SIM card supports the display language that you want to use for cell broadcast messages.
Turn on cell broadcasting
1. In the device options, click Advanced Options.
2. Click Cell Broadcast.
3. Change the Cell Broadcasting Service field to On.
4. Perform one of the following actions:
• If a cell broadcast channel appears on the screen, select the check box beside the channel.
