BlackBerry 8310 Blackberry Smartphones, problem of backlight keyboard for 4.5 upgrade

I installed the between 4.5, things are working fine so far, except the keyboard backlight, it lights up in time, but most of the time it stays off in the night, she's a bitch! All settings have been verified and the phone was traded again by ATT, but the new phone they gave me the dose exactly the same thing, I'm sure it's a software problem, can anyone help?

Mark

Well, after several calls to ATT and a few stops at the store, there was a new feature added that upgrade, that I didn't know and I really don't think very well received by anyone who deals with BlackBerry.

The small LED light at the top of your blackbeery now is how you turn on the keyboard light when it fires. It works most of the time, but I think it's a pain the * beep *. But who am I... Laughing out loud

So when its dark outside or you need the keyboard for you put your finger on the little light LED light at the top and the keyboard lights up.

I think everyone should say blackberry this new battery additional economy feature sucks.

It took me 3 weeks to get this figured out... Laughing out loud

  • BlackBerry Smartphones really backup and restore for the OS upgrade

    Hi all

    I'm new in the world of BB and I love it.

    I've recently updated the OS of my BB "BOLD" and was a little surprised by the backup and restore process...

    He missed some relevant info such as: BB Messenger discussions, certain parameters (network, wifi, email passwords options options...).

    Is there a way to really back up everything before the update of the OS? That's all just annoying (even if it's no big deal, the vast majority is here...)

    Thank you and have a nice day.

    See you soon

    We are not effective, we are just bored.

    The difference is this: I saw the backup upgrade automatically deleted at the end of the upgrade process. Your backup beforehand will ensure you the data for use if necessary.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones problem setting up email

    Hello everyone, I reccently purchased a vodafone bb 8900 to my friend, I unblocked him today and I am currently using a 02 sim card. My companion had set up on the phone but deleted emails before you send the phone.

    My problem is when I try to configure my emails I go to Settings / Setup Wizard / Configuration of email, there is no option to create or add an email account. Only the possibility of using a professional email with an Enterprise Server account. And there is no shortcut to the e-mail settings in the setup folder.

    does anyone know how to configure my e-mail from here?

  • BlackBerry Smartphones changing approval to applications for 8520

    Is it possible to change the permission of 'Desktop To Go Applications' my word, excel, ppt and pdf of my curve8520? It is displayed as "deny".

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    There are dozens of permission settings... I have no way, what said you, namely that which shows that 'Deny '...

    But, if you can change that setting, then your likely BB is now or was formerly associated with a corporate BES environment, and a BES it policy is on board which is preventing access to this permission setting.

    If you are currently a member of BES, then you need to talk to your admins BES to access this special permission setting.

    If you are not currently associated with BES, TI latent policy was deleted not the when the BB is provided for you... and you need to remove. Please see this KB and consider very special on all the warnings about the loss of data:

  • Need help from blackBerry Smartphones: send files via Bluetooth for my Curve 8900

    Hi all

    Earlier this week, I made the change to a BB and overall I am very happy with it, but there is a thing that is annoying on the phone and despite my efforts and a lot of tinkering, I was not able to solve this problem, I'm looking for help.

    I try to send files to other Bluetooth devices to my BB 8900 and I can't do work of t. strangely, I can send my BB files to other Bluetooth devices with no problems but I can't send things on my device.

    I lived the articles (e.g. http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB04132&slic... )

    but in vain.

    In a nut shell, I enabled bluetooth on my camera, I made detectable and combined with other devices that I am trying to transfer files from, I went into options of the terminal for these devices and their confidence, and then I tried to send files.

    If I send from another phone (LG viewty) or Nokia E61i, I get an error message indicating that "send failed".

    If I send a computer that was paired, I select the file I want to send > right click > sent to > Bluetooth > other and select my BB8900 in the list of paired devices. At this point, the computer appears to try to send the file, but I am presented with an error message indicating "file transfer Service is not found on device BB8900."

    Why is this? How do I am able to send files to my BB 8900 but not sent to it, and what can I do to solve this problem?

    This problem is causing me a lot of grief that I have given on other phones, I need to transfer to my new BB, unfortunately I do not have a USB cable to one of the phones, so Bluetooth is the best alternative.

    Please can someone help!

    Thanks in advance,

    /Chuck

    OK, so after re-reading of this last KB article, I realized that I was a complete dunce!

    I have now managed to successfullty receive pictures and audio files on my BB.

    Thanks for your help!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones comparing memory on "BOLD" for iphone: (?)

    The "BOLD" website lists: in addition to 624 MHz Intel procesor by Marvel (compared to 312 MHz), it lists flash 128 MB and 1 GB on-board memory and a slot for up to 16 GB more.

    The iphone site lists: it just says 8 GB or 16 GB flash.

    I do not understand the difference.  I think that the world of office in what concerns the hard drive and Ram.  I guess, but don't know, as smart phones like these use something similar to this, but given that two Web sites use exactly the same terminology I do not know how to compare.

    (1) the data above means that the iphone has much more available memory? (After all, 1 GB of flash is much more than 128 MB flash)

    (2) or maybe its apples and oranges and the 8 GB or 16 GB iphone capacity memory simply alluded without actually it indicating the location available for additional memory, so in reality is the same thing as the "BOLD"?  (But if its what so what's onboard memory iphone to compare with the 1 GB onboard memory referenced to the "BOLD"?)  And what is the comparison of the iphone for flash 128 MB?)

    (3) for the basic understanding, is the 128 MB of flash to the "BOLD" actually the RAM I think of a desktop computer, and if yes, what is the on-board memory of 1 GB?

    Can someone clarify all above and in particular specify them the appropriate comparisons with the iphone and not only on the question of memory, but also what is the processor of the iphone and the speed of the processor?

    Thank you.  The supposed November 4, 2008 U.S. retail release date is almost here.  I really hope that many folds referenced on this forum are addressed in this new phone.

    Hello, you shouldn't think if conditions of RAM (RAM) / WORM (hard drive), but in terms of xxxx. On Blackberry devices, you have a partition for the system & applications (called "Internal memory"): it's the 128 MB on the "BOLD". On it, you hold:

    • The PIM applications: email, notes, address book, calendar, tasks and notes
    • Phone applications: SMS/MMS, browser, speech recognition
    • Third application Opera Mini, games and each application you want to download
    • the RAM as you understand it, on a computer

    Then you have an additional memory card (also called Media card), 8 MB up to 32 GB, which can contain all other things: photos, videos, mp3, Office & PDF files. It is equivalent to the non-system partition.

    On the iPhone, the two briefs are merged.

    On the Blackberry, there is a third party application that allows to store applications on the memory card and load them onto the internal memory before using it.

    It is quite difficult to compare the two:

    on the iPhone, you have a powerful processor somehow, which is crippled by a lot of your operating system (it's OSX for Mobile, but always OSX). On a Blackberry, you have a CPU less powerful, but with an operating system designed for a handheld device.

    On an iPhone, an application is large enough. It is very rare to find one that is less than 1 MB.

    On the blackberry, it's the opposite: the applications are smaller.

    On an iPhone, you can not get an application that has not been approved by Apple Inc. (unless you jailbreak your iPhone). On a blackberry, you can get any app that someone publishes. Including porn.

    On an iPhone, if I want to develop an application, I have to pay a tax of $100 AppleInc; If I did not, then my application can be downloaded by jailbroken iPhones. On a Blackberry, I don't pay anything. I just publish it somewhere on the web. I'll give you a very specific example: Opera Mini is one of the most beautiful browser for mobile phones. Apple has refusedto got it publishedso no one can use it on an iPhone (except the jailbreak).

    Another very concrete example: If you pay $100 and prepare your application, if Apple refuses, then you have the eyes to cry: you've lost time (and perhaps money to hire developers) and you cannot be assured that you can sell.

    Another example: say, you sell an application. It is 10EUR. If the consumer is not happy with it, they can return it. In this case, he or she gets the return of 10EUR. Fine for him or her. But continues to Apple the transaction fees, which means or do not get the return 10EUR but 10EUR less standard fees from Apple (it's to a few % but I don't know how).

    the result is twofold:

    on the one hand, there is a trend that everyone wants to develop for Apple

    on the other side, Apple is doing everything to rot the lives of these people.

    But Apple's App Store is a good idea, and Blackberry has just made an announcement about a same store for Blackberry users.

    I just got a curve, so I'm not even interested in looking at the most advanced mobile devices with touch screen, but I think you should try both for real and not just look at the numbers. There are also some exclusive features to the iPhone: link to the iTunes music store and iPod it contains. and others that are exclusive to the "BOLD": stereo Bluetooth, copy/paste and total synchronization with Outlook (emails not only).

  • BlackBerry Smartphones two ripe and spoiled for choice... Help?

    I finally took the plunge and bought my first blackberry (8520). I signed up for the bb data plan and all that jazz, and it has been awesome so far.

    So, here's the deal... the other day my brother bought and iPhone and decided that he did not want his old blackberry (9000). Can I use my data on its "BOLD" plan if it has been activated with my 8520? I thought I would use one as a backup when the other was in charge, or whatever haha (the spoilt for choice?). I asked people in the electronics store where I bought my blackberry but they said that my plan is not used on another blackberry device? is this true? because I still have doubts and that it is difficult to understand how this could be true...

    PS - the two devices are unlocked (if that makes a difference? I am such a newbie haha)

    Yes, it can be.

    If the Bold 9000 is unlocked, follow the instructions in the link below.

    http://www.BlackBerry.com/BTSC/KB04322

    Finally, you must ensure that the PIN of the bold has been released and is no longer on your old account of brothers. If you get an error making the change unit above which indicates the PIN code is stored on another medium, then your brother must ask his former carrier to release the AXIS of his account.

  • BlackBerry 10 problems with quick keyboard input?

    Curious to know if the owners non - Q10 this experience? If you do not have a Q10, try the following actions that stir up trouble (typing while receiving a text or BBM, message or by immediately typing affter hit send) and I would like to know if the behavior is not the same on the Q10?

    I type very fast on my keyboard of Q10. Often the time when entering text, say in a text message or conversation of BBM, I will hit enter to send and to start writing again. With any iPhone or Android, you would just keep typing. Half the time, I need to re - select the area to keep hits again, or he starts to enter a few characters are echoed to the screen and the unit freezes during a seecond and then the text box is empty, even if the phone works normally after that. Is it a known issue for BB10 lock up like that, and is the duty to select the text box again after sending the default behavior? I have not found a way to disable it and it is very annoying.

    P.S. I'm the only person who can manage almost never hit the X in the circle on the browser to clear the url? I have to remove most of the time...

    Solved... apparently WhatsApp is to blame. Found a tip in the classic BlackBerry users forum which could be related to a memory leak. Deleted and instantly all my problems were solved... hmm...

  • BlackBerry Smartphones problem change the language to send SMS on BB Curve 9300 3

    BlackBerry 9300 3

    Does anyone know if there is a quick way to change the language of the keyboard? My laptop has in Arabic and English keyboard keys, but no Arab option on the phone with the language settings.

    When I try to update the input languages to include Arabic via the desktop software, I get the following message:

    "BlackBerry® Desktop Software Update could not validate your BlackBerry® device.

    Aborting installation because of the failure of the validation. Some unsatisfied dependencies contained package. »

    The only advice I found is to go into the Woods under ~ library on my Mac with OS X 10.6.8 which will display messages to applications that need to be uninstalled as they are third parties and can not be validated. This suggests the Blackberry Appworld should be uninstalled that I did, but still have the problem.

    If anyone can help that would be great.

    Also, I would be grateful if someone can confirm if Blackberry phones are supposed to be that mind? I just spent my eighth time on it, and I'm regretting ever having bought the phone. I made phone calls with it and sent the texts in English, but other than that nothing. I already have a phone that is equal to a tenth of the cost of that tape also in Arabic, which I think is pretty useless Blackberry in comparison.

    I finally found a work around for this problem. I adapted the advice from the link here:

    http://forums.CrackBerry.com/Forum-F62/how-UN-brick-BlackBerry-Mac-336488/

    In order to clarify that I was using a BB9300 3 G Curve, with BB OS 6, with the latest version of BB Desktop, running on a Mac Book Pro.

    You must clean the phone and reinstall the operating system for phones in a way that eventually flashes the RAM on the phone, as it appears a large batch of phones were shipped with this bug.

    Once invited to fix the phone, you must choose the oldest version of the operating system offered by the Repair Wizard. It will remove your personal and settings files that will need to be manually reinstalled.

    My steps were as follows:

    FIRST OF ALL MAKE SURE THAT YOUR PHONE IS NOT CONNECTED TO YOUR MACHINE AND BLACKBERRY DESKTOP IS NOT RUNNING.

    1 delete the versions of operating system stored on your Mac by going to ~Library/ApplicationSupport/BlackberryDesktop/DeviceApplications

    2. empty the Recycling / Bin of the "trash".

    3 remove the battery from your Blackberry and then connect to your computer via a USB cable. The phone will display a battery with a red cross. The desktop software is expected to launch after that the phone is connected.

    4. you will be asked to repair or restart the phone. Opt for repair and you should be presented with different versions of earlier operating systems. He recommended the latest version for me, but in fact I found that I had to go straight to the first version of the operating system available which was OS5. Select this option and then start the download.

    5. I found that the phone has downloaded the whole software at once, but in the original notice it says that on the phone may need to be reconnected several times it falls, close and restart BB Desktop software every time. I found that it only happened when you try to install later versions of the operating system.

    6. halfway through the installation of the progress bar said "waiting for device commissioning. At this point, reinsert the battery.

    7. then wait that the phone restart which took more than 20 minutes for me.

    8. This should have completed the installation. Especially when the phone is installed with the OS5 he gave me an option to choose the input languages available on the phone and remove those unwanted. I received a message on BB Office recommends that upgraded the operating system 6, I did, and now works with the input languages.

    Again, this work around is to:

    http://forums.crackberry.com/forum-f62/how-un-brick-blackberry-mac-336488/ that I had to modify the steps that I pointed out in case it helps anyone in the future.
