It says it not an app and it isn't. It does give some handy info and makes life a little easier when using the BB.

This should help. Here are a lot of the so called secrets, there are more but there wasn't enough space to put them all here.
My favorite it the re-boot without doing a battery pull.

 Reboot for World Peace (world peace optional)
Tired of pulling your battery to reboot? If you use a lot of different apps through the day/week/month, by rebooting you can improve performance and free up memory!
Press all of the following and then release to reboot: ALT + CAP + DEL
(Yah, it�s that easy. No �quick pull� or other app required!) Note: you must be at the home screen to reboot.

Do you like switching between apps? You�ll love this!
Press and hold ALT, then press and release Escape (the back button to the right of the scroll ball or below your scroll wheel)
It brings up the task bar to show which apps are running. Scroll to the one you want and click it (you can release ALT now).
BONUS: Want to go straight back to the last app? Just press ALT + Escape and release. Presto - instant switcheroo!

One-click flashlight^ (That�s right, for no extra charge!)
Open video camera. Click Menu -> Options. Change �Video Light� setting to �On�. Save changes. Open video camera anytime to activate LED flashlight (you don�t have to record anything!)
To make it a one-click flashlight, go to Options -> Screen/Keyboard. Scroll to either �Right.. or �Left Side Convenience Key Opens:� and click the choice option to see a list of items. Scroll to �Video Camera� and select it. Save changes. Now you can click the right/left side key and your flashlight turns on!
BONUS: To keep your flashlight on, make sure you move the scroll ball now and then to keep your screen on. Otherwise, when the screen goes black the LED will turn off.
    ^Requires video enabled BlackBerry model

 If you�re having some serious BlackBerry problems and need to contact IT or support, then you�ll want all of the important information in one place.
Press ALT + CAP + H
You�ll get to a system info screen that has most anything a tech support person might need.

In our ongoing efforts to reduce butt-dialing, pocket-dialing and similarly awkward moments, we suggest you become an expert at locking that keyboard! If your BlackBerry model does *not* have a dedicated Lock button, from the home screen...
Press ALT + Enter
[Pearl models] Press and hold * (asterisk) key

Do you speak, type or read multiple languages? If you�ve enabled more than one language on your rollerball BlackBerry, there�s a quick way to toggle between them.
Press ALT + Enter
Scroll to the desired language and select it. C�est manifique!

Need to type accented or special characters?
Hold the letter key and scroll the rollerball or track wheel.
Example: Hold �A� and scroll to see all the variations of accented A�s and ae�s, etc.

Sometimes you need to type a lot of all-capital letters (perhaps you�re e-yelling at someone...)
Press ALT + right CAP
This activates caps lock (you�ll see an �aA� icon in the top right of the screen).
BONUS: Press it again to release caps lock. ;)

Need to type a lot of numbers and hate holding down ALT all of the time?
Press ALT + left CAP
This activates NUM lock (you�ll see a �123� icon in the top right). Press again to release.

More Super Useful Daily Stuff

Did you know your BlackBerry could dial alphanumeric phone numbers? You know the kind... �1-800-SECRETS� (not a real number!)
Hold down ALT while you type the letters in the phone screen, then press the Call button. Your BB does the number conversion for you. Sweet!

This "app" worked fine when d/l completed. Very basic but still informative. Now 10 hrs later I get an error message stating it can't be found......too bad I liked it but now I feel disillusioned. I sent an email to support but even that link goes nowhere. Oh well I'm deleting it right now.

Nothing for even the beginner to learn other than a discussion on branded Apps and the sites self-promotion of its services. If there is anything there it wasn't obvious and I'm not wasting my time.  Really liked the design of the site and they seemed intelligent too bad they didn't deliver.
simplesmente nao funciona.
