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.
Turn on cell broadcasting
To perform this task, your BlackBerry® device must use a SIM card, and your wireless service provider must set up your SIM card with a cell
broadcast channel or provide you with the ID for a cell broadcast channel.
Depending on your wireless service provider and the wireless network that your device is connected to, this feature might not be supported.

2. Click Device > Advanced System Settings > Cell Broadcast Settings.

ID and a nickname. Click OK.

service provider does not use cell broadcasting to manage services, such as preferred rates, based on your location.
