Live Search for BlackBerry Beta (BlackBerry OS 4.1 or later)

What is Live Search for BlackBerry?
Live Search for BlackBerry is the essential mobile companion – it is an application you can install on your BlackBerry phone that makes it easy to search for business, get driving directions, view maps with up-the-minute traffic information and much more when you’re on the go.

What’s New?

The new version of Live Search for BlackBerry has the following new features:
• Contact Integration. Save a search result to your contacts for quick access later.
• Mail to a Friend. Send a text message with search result details to a friend.
• Speech Recognition (for GSM devices with BlackBerry OS 4.2 and later). No need to type – for yellow page listings, just say what you want to find!
• Web Search. Initiate a web search from within the application just by clicking the ‘Web’ icon to get results from various other scopes, e.g. Web, News, Images, and more.
• Weather. Get current weather conditions and a 4-day forecast for your current location.
• Improved Searching. Speak or type an address into the main search box – try saying “One Microsoft Way Redmond Washington” or your home address.
• Increased Traffic Coverage. Up-to-minute traffic info for more cities, e.g. Dallas, Indianapolis, and more.

Same As It Ever Was…

• Local Search. Search yellow and white page listings near you.
• Driving Directions. After finding a business, get directions to your destination.
• Maps. Smooth panning/zooming experience with maps optimized for readability and efficient use of your data connection.
• Traffic. View maps with up-to-the minute traffic information.
• GPS Integration. Track your progress along a route by clicking Menu > Center On GPS when you’re viewing the route on a map.
• Movie Showtimes. Quickly browse movie show times near you organized by movie or by theater.

We want your feedback!
Please send all feedback, suggestions, bugs, and questions to lsmobile@microsoft.com.

Happy Searching!

I cannot get your app to work on my BB 8130. It downloads fine but then gives a "Sorry, we can't download the application data. Please check your network connection." error mesaage in the configuration part. My carrier is Bell Mobility. In the Network Connection section I have Direct HTTP. My other BB GPS applications work fine.

I like it better on BlackBerry than I do on my the Windows Mobile phone I got rid of! Good stuff.

I just downloaded and installed this tonight. Works fine with the BlackBerry Curve 8320 on T-Mobile and an external Telenav Bluetooth GPS (SiRF III).

I have the 8310, AT&T. Downloaded Live Search last night, worked fine the first couple of tries. Then locked up phone, turned off/on, worked OK, then lost voice capability. Locked-up again today, was not able to make or receive calls. Unloaded app, phone worked fine. I like the idea, it will probably be a great application once all the bugs are worked out.

Been using this literally since the day it was announced here...zero issues/problems with it ever causing any issues on my BB - it is definitely one of my favorite and most used/useful apps...not sure why it's giving you trouble, that's unfortunate for you.

Using a BB Bold (Rogers, unlocked) on T-Mobile USA. OS 4.6.0.185. APN set to wap.voicestream.com

I cant get a network connection with the latest 4.2 and up version of WLS. I have tried using all 3 connection options (default, direct http, BES) and checking the wifi box to no avail.

With WIFI enabled it works fine. (but much slower to get a GPS fix then google) I need to to work without wifi as a I rarely have access to wifi when out and about.

Will Live work with a storm on the verizon network?? I downloaded it and wasn't successful in getting it to work. Is it only for GSM/GPRS/EDGE networks?

[Redflea]

Live works fine on Verizon...more likely an issue of them not supporting the Storm for some reason.

[andrewfay]

Thanks for the info - I will see if there is going to be an update for the Storm and inform back.

[andrewfay]

Do you have a version that will work on the Blackberry Storm on Verizon? I downloaded it and it said it was installed successfully, but when I choose to run the program - nothing happens. I have re-installed a couple of times with the same results.

Thanks in advance

Is this available yet in Canada?

Do you have it installed? Do you see the instruction at the bottom of the home screen? Press the green phone button to speak. Do that and follow the directions.
