Next2Friends Live for BlackBerry Bold
Community, Fun With Next2Friends, News, Next2Friends, Technology, Web / Tech Add commentsWe have been very hard at work lately. Some of you may know that a few weeks ago we announced the world’s first free Live Mobile Broadcasting solution for the BlackBerry OS as we brought Next2Friends Live to the BlackBerry Curve and the Pearl. Well now we’re adding to that list one of the most talked about phones by RIM in a while, the BlackBerry Bold.
The Bold is a fantastic new phone that features all the goodies you’d expect, Wifi, 3G connectivity, a 2MP camera, and the ability to connect to almost any network worldwide, to name a few. Add to that having a display about which CNET writer Bonnie Cha says, “I was absolutely blown away. I can pretty much say I’ve never seen a better-looking display on a smartphone.”
Next2Friends Live turns a mobile phone into a live video broadcasting tool. Live video broadcasting from mobile has been notably absent for BlackBerry devices, owing largly to the difficulty in working with the BlackBerry OS. Next2Friends set about correcting this early this past summer. There just were too many ways that live mobile broadcasting could be useful to the primarily business set who use BlackBerrys, from tradeshows to conferences to beaming images back home while traveling.
Singing up for an account is free and Next2Friends Live is just one of the mobile offerings from Next2Friends. Our Social Suite is comprised of SnapUp, truly two click photo capture and upload to the internet, Ask, real time opinion polling, and Tag, real world profile matching. Besides providing a comprehensive set of real time media tools, the Social Suite delivers much of the functionality of the website to mobile so members can look at and comment on photos, read emails and follow their friends’ latest activity from anywhere.
Here is a demonstration of how to get Next2Friends Live up and running on a BlackBerry Pearl, Curve or Bold. Happy Streaming!

The Bold is the best thing since sliced bread if users could only get one.

Wish I could get the app to work on the BB Bold. Installed fine, but can’t seem to get streaming to work. Keep getting error “Application terminated: Next2Friends_Live has been denied the “Input Simulation” permission.” on my handheld device.
Next2Friends could really use a support area, forum, FAQ or help section.

Hey AR…. The issue you have can be resolved by reading the important instructions on the download page for your phone. You need to adjust the application permissions to “allow” for all items in order to resolve this. Again, please read the important instructions link on the download page for your phone.
