BlackBerry 9500/9530 smartphones

Y at - it an explanation for one model (say, the 9500) working in a particular company, and not the other (9530)? I only ask, because I have the 9530 and could have operational (BIS) with one of the two carriers; and have been informed that the 9500 works well in the other carrier. Both are GSM, EDGE.

The 9530 is foremost a cdma phone, but may wander as a phone in other countries of the world on the mobile phone.

The 9500 is strictly a gsm phone, and if it's unlocked to an American carrier using the gsm, it would work better than the 9530.

  • BlackBerry Storm 9530 smartphones crashed or something when I tried to install the new OS

    Hey,.

    I recently picked up a blackberry storm 9530, who has been sitting on the counter for about 5 months and decided that I wanted to use it. I got it all together upward through my carrier (Verizon) and it has been working perfectly for the last 2 weeks. However, today, I tried to update the software version of the device with the Blackberry Desktop Software and something happened. The update process was almost complete and he got in a process that says something like "Reconnecting to JVM" or something like that. Then another window pops up saying them was a mistake with the AppLoader or something and he said to disconnect and reconnect my device and then click Retry. I did about 3 times before I decided that it wasn't going to work and clicked on the Cancel button and abandoned the update. Now my phone won't turn properly. whenever I press the power button all the buttons on the bottom will be light and then the LED on top lights up red for a while, then the light turns off and the keys will blink again, and then the light, ect ect. Sometimes when I press the power button and leave it alone for a bit the flashing stops and the screen will remain black but the little loading symbol, but nothing will happen. At the moment he made the small thing of loading for about 30-40 minutes of solids and nothing happens. I read a few other posts and all the other problems seem to be resolved by the connection to the computer and fixing one way or another using the Blackberry Desktop Software, however when I plug my Berry in my computer it is not yet recognized as a device because it is busy to restart or what he does. I have no idea what to do and problems will arise for me if I don't have a phone to get their hands on people. Please help :/

  • BlackBerry 9500 Storm Smartphones against Storm 9530

    What is the difference between these 2 phones?

    As far as I KNOW, in the simplest terms... 9500 is the version of Vodaphone, the 9530 is Verizon.  These two carriers are the only "official" carriers of the storm.

  • BlackBerry Storm 9530 smartphones stops during calls

    Hello

    My first Blackberry, it's a Storm 9530, and everything seems as it should be-except that it will completely die during calls. Not all the time, but most of the time. (about 4 to 5 times)

    Sometimes I hear a noise from the Bzzz electronic, then the red light comes on, I think I can see an error screen (briefly - not backlit)-then a white screen, then a small clock-face, then the start of Blackberry screen and the loading bar. Takes a few minutes to load, then it's as if nothing happened - until I make the next call.

    I have the Blackberry Desktop Manager on my Macbook. Tells me that newer software is available - but never successfully downloading it, often crashing out of it during the relief phase. The same software on my Windows PC won't even find my phone (even if it appears in the my computer window).

    I read in some messages in the forum, but did not find any problems.

    Here's the bad news: Yes, I bought it on ebay!  Unused and unlocked. I accept full responsibility for my actions! Oh!

    I'm in the United Kingdom using a Virgin SIM card. I realize this will give me limited use BB facilities - but, quite frankly, at this point even end a call would be a joy!

    It comes with a 12 month warranty, but before I send again, I thought I'd post on the forum in case it was a problem with an easy solution. Or any patch.

    Thanks in advance, L

    Carrier: unlocked (originally from T-Mobile) now on a SIM of Virgin UK

    OS: v5.0.0.154 (Platform 4.2.0.21)

    Well, I'm not really a superstitious person - but I hesitate to hit the solved button in case I have any jinx.

    But it seems that the software update has resolved the problem. So far, so good, anyway. Phone has not stopped since the update.

    Think I'll wait one more day, do a little more of screams and then click resolve.

    On a different note, which can be of interest for all Virgin UK customers: Virgin were to launch their friendly service of BB on January 4 this year, but it has been delayed. Currently, they only provide service BB for the curve and the torch (that they provide on contract). The new service would be welcome all BB phones which users on their own and use the Virgin fare. This year, the latest schedule come into force this service is end of February / beginning of March.

    I cross my fingers. So far, I have a smartphone that can be used for phone calls and texts! Tried to go back to my old Sony Ericsson - at least I could send and receive MMS.

    Enjoy, L

  • Setup Gmail 'Ideal' blackBerry Storm 9530 Smartphones

    My wife and I recently received from Storm 9530 with Verizon service.  Both of us are using Gmail accounts as our single e-mail account on the BB.  The Verizon store put up our Gmail accounts through the e-mail option main/standard BB (BES/BIS?), but I use Gmail extensively and use filters, labels, contacts and see thread regularly, so I was not happy with the way it has been implemented.  Not to mention I want two-way syncing between my handheld and your computer, which AFAIK is available through the App (?) of Gmail.  I downloaded the Gmail app on both devices, that satisfies me with the exception of a few issues/questions:

    (1) on my phone, I get notifications of new emails (both tone and the new icon of Visual message), but the phone my wife warns no new messages unless it refreshes.  As far as I can tell, I have set them up with the same settings.  No idea what could be the cause of his is not for him to new messages?

    (2) sometimes, it seems that my notification comes close in real time, but other times it seems to last 20 minutes for the notification to arrive?  I read somewhere that the delay in delivery is a problem with the Gmail app, but that was almost of a post on the forum about a year ago.  Is this always the case?

    Here is my questions, but if someone has a better way to achieve two-way synchronization, complete the Gmail features and real-time notification on the handheld, I'd love to hear it (nearby).

    I apologize if this is the ten thousandth time these questions have been asked, however in the search for the huge amount of Blackberry/Gmail web discussions I couldn't find my exact issues or good solutions for them.

    Thanks in advance.

    -Danny

    Yep, you'll see a period of the e-mail server for device...

    For something better, you will need a BES.

  • BlackBerry Storm 9530 Smartphone problem. Stop on battery full

    Hi, I have a storm 9530, which works well for me for a little over a year now. Then one day my phone started to close in on me in the middle of any kind of use. To be more precise, if I'm on the phone to make a call, I can not longer than 10-20 minutes before my phone stops on me on a full battery. It will be 100% then when I start to do things like make a phone call, or do some texting for 10-20 minutes as no stop, using an application any for more than 10 minutes, basically any kind of prolonged use and my phone stops on me. Then it will begin to restart and sometimes it turns on but then will have only 20% of battery or other times it will not start even back up to a battery pull and to be plugged into a charger. Now I have my phone almost always on a charger whenever I need to use it and it gets really annoying that he stops all the time. The phone does become hot at times when running these applications, music, phone call etc... What happens here? Turned my phone that has hurt? Should I just a new battery? I am running v5.0.0.328 (Platform 4.2.0.128). Help, please!

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    All diagnoses that you mentioned are possible. But additional tests are needed to determine who is correct. I suggest you find a correct battery known - preferably a friend with the exact model BB you have that does not have these symptoms. Piles of trade. If the behavior follows the battery, then the battery is the cause and you should get a new. If the behavior remains with you, then your BB is the cause... but what part of the BB is still to be determined.

    To know what part of the BB is originally, there are several possible diagnoses processes, by what you can spend. Specifically, you need to isolate if the problem is hardware or software (e.g., conflict 3rd party app). To determine that, the cleaner is to completely replace your device OS with a new fresh copy and abandon all add-ons. Then begin to challenge the Add-ons, leaving enough time to use between each installation of the add-on. Once the returns of behavior, then, you know your culprit.

    Hope that helps!

    Hello! Try following the steps described CIHI:

    http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/device-software-for-BlackBerry/how-to-reload-your-operating-S...

    If your BlackBerry is unable to connect to the computer while you try to use the Loader.exe file, disconnect the phone from the computer and remove the battery, then reconnect the phone without the battery. It should then pick up the phone in the reboot cycle and move forward. As soon as you see the USB:YOURPIN in the drop-down list, just click next to continue. Once you get to the next screen, you can reinsert the battery.

    Try and if you have other problems, do let me know.

    You can block a foreign key? Mainly the voice activation key.

    I want to do this without blocking the rest of the phone.

    Hello world

    I juz received a blackberry storm 9500 of my sister, and I don't know how to connect it to wifi (I'm very new to this). I tried google and found different answers, ranging from "storm 9500 cannot connect to wifi", "I'm an and it can connect just fine. I can't find the wifi option in the 'manage' link, and there is either no browser on the homescreen icon.

    Can someone tell me how to connect to wifi (it can be connected)? My carrier provider is at & t btw.

    Any help much appreciated!

    Hello

    The original models of Storm (9500/9530) have no WiFi radio and therefore cannot use the WiFi. Models Storm2 (9520/9550) added, among other things, WiFi capability. Thus, with a 9500, you have no WiFi radio and so cannot use WiFi services.

    Good luck!

    • With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes.
