BlackBerry Blackberry Curve Smartphones - device password problem

I have a Blackberry Curve and for the life of me can't remember the password for the device.

I went under 'options', 'security options', then 'General Settings '.

It is set to 'active '.  When I try to set it to "disabled", her asking me my password and I can't remember it.

Only went to this section of the phone to see if I even had a password initially because when I try to connect to the Mediasync, he asked me for one.

Does anyone know how I can recover my password or where I could find it?  I have 10 tries and have already used up to 6.  The 5th try it asked me to type "blackberry".

Thanks in advance.

Chris

Make full backup with BlackBerry Desktop Software (BB Desktop Manager).

In case you used all attempts and the memory of the device are deleted to restore the saved data and you will get other attempts and so on.

Unfortunately there is no way to recover the forgotten password.

  • Problem white screen blackBerry curve Smartphones

    I'll have forced major with my Blackberry Curve

    The guard screen goes white and white, then the phone resets and guard going round and round in circles and reset shutter.  A few times, loaded it up, but at the time when I sent a message he has gone empty again and reset.

    This last time, he loaded the screen says... untrapped exception limit<=4 ...="" or="" something="" very="">

    Please help because I have no idea what to do about it.

    Thank yo for a advise you can give me.

    Perform a simple reboot on the BlackBerry this way: with smart BlackBerry poweredphone, remove the battery for five minutes and then reinsert the battery to restart. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most defects and errors of operating system, and you will lose any data on the device doing so.

    Let us know what happens.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones device passwords

    WHEB I inserted the memory card it says I have to enter the device password and I don't know it

    About your Options > device > security, check if you have encryption set on the map. If so, turn it off.

    You POUVEZ must know your password to do so. And no one here knows your password.

  • Battery faulty BlackBerry Blackberry Curve Smartphones 9360 and software now corrupted

    I have a Blackberry Curve 9360

    Problem started as - battery discharged charge for nothing and switched phone off when you use the browser or a camera.

    Phone calls / Email / BBM / SMS ok

    Said to try the software update via Blackberry Desktop Manager

    Tried it on my laptop but it loaded all company settings and restrictions that use my company (British Telecom)

    This included the removal of Blackberry App world and most of my apps

    O2 has forced me to make a back up

    Security wiped the phone

    This has removed the browser icon

    App world and Apps are still reported missing, but they are visible when you look at the applications installed via Options / device / application management

    E-mail accounts are displayed when you use the wizard, he accepts the passwords and then fails to remember passwords and takes you back through the new assistants

    Is there a way to do a full format of the phone and to start from scratch as doing the wipe of security is obviously not enough to remove restrictions of business who have been responsible for Blackberry App World

    As I've been flooded with assistance I edge of Googling.

    I backed up contacts / calendar to Outlook

    copied the photos / videos / music to help drag and drop through my documents / my computer

    And then restored to factory settings.

    Some sites say that for this you go in Options/Security/security wipe, but that erases all your data and not the software (which in this case was corrupted)

    Factory reset is now pushed 3 buttons at the same time Alt / aA (right symbol) / del

    Then Yes, you lose all the preferences / set ups and must use the browser for Blackberry App World once again, i.e. Once loaded, all applications you used to have must be in the view "uninstalled" from Blackberry App World / My World.

    After all this, I thought that much, it seems, as battery problem has been resolved, an hour later he died.

    My partner has offered to lend me his battery, when we change places I noticed my battery was marginally more roughly in the Middle, mmm battery certainly at its release, the time for a new.

    next problem is then to the place to buy, many of those cheap on ebay, but necessarily false/second hand, oh well, keep looking.

    Good bye

  • BlackBerry Blackberry Curve Smartphones Downgrade 9300 software

    I downloaded the Blackberry 6 software on my Blackberry Curve 9300 and I noticed that my battery is empty so easily and it is a bit slow and I feel as if it was because my phone does not support very well. Is there a way I can change it in Blackberry 5 software? I found the software Blackberry 5 but I'll click on update and it checks only the software updates and was told it is not new that is not what I want, and when I searched how downgrade, he gave me measures, but I can't find that its telling me to click on my phone if anyone can help me please let me know!

    For now, the oldest operating system loading, I let the downgrade applications as well.

    For example, you could have installed an application compatible only on OS6.

    Also, make sure you do a backup of your device using the Desktop software first. Then you can reinstall all contacts, calendar, etc., would there be problems along the way. Engage with the downgrade by the instructions above.

  • BlackBerry Curve smartphone 8520 OS 5 software

    So I've recently updated my Blackberry Curve 8520... without the data plan. No use of BBSAK. Luckily, I backed up my camera. I made a mistake to remove it. I found the file in "Recycling bin" and retrieved information. I have a quesiton about how to read this file? My SONY laptop cannot view this file without having to find a new software.

    Without thinking, I converted somehow 'Backup2011-22-3' of Adobe Flash software. Whatever it is, it still cannot be displayed.

    in any case, after the update of the software, none of my information was on the device. I went to restore my device successfully. However, none of my notes have been restored! Initially, the "Memo" application has not been downloaded on my Blackberry. I downloaded and then restored my device once more. Yet once, the memos do not show upward. I really need them! :/

    If there is no way, I am also satisfied if someone helped me get my restorations. Or convert them somehow to a visible form.

    I'm really happy with this new software! But this problem is just to shoot me.

    Thanks for any future help!

    This is not a pdf file. Its a .ipd file. Make sure that your computer is set to 'show extensions of known file types '. You can google for the instructions step by step to do. If its an ipd extension but the pc isshowing who his a dobe of the file, you need to change the file association for the .ipd files.

    When you do a selective restore of this ipd file it should show you the number of database entries is in the Memo database. If your notes are not in there, then there is nothing anyone can do. I suggest make you backups more often and/or synchronize with Outlook to avoid additional data loss.

    You can turn off the red flashing notification by going to

    Messages > (key Blackberry) Options > General Options > display indicator new Message 'NO '.

    This will cause the unit to not display the red flashing LED and you will not see a red * click the e-mail until the upper part of the screen.

    The icon options should be on the device, if you are adamant that you can't find it then I would suggest that reload the software on the device.

    Sorry, but will not disable the led red LED, GRAHAM of GOD. Only, it will disable the indicator red star on the e-mail inbox.

    To disable the LED indicator, edit your profiles.

    1. Select the profiles icon

    2. a box will appear where you can quickly choose between Loud, vibrate, quiet, normal, phone only, and outside.

    3. If you want to change the notification of messages assigned for device applications, and then select the last option, advanced options

    4. Select the profile you want to change. (Loud, vibrate, quiet, Normal (default), phone only, Off)
    Note: on the 8100, 8800 and 8300 models: do not click on the trackball. Instead of this, click on the menu button to the left of the trackball).
    Note: The profile that is in use will tell: (active)

    5. you will now see a list of all applications that can have an assigned tone (browser, calendar, level 1 Messages, Messages ([email protected]), Messenger, MMS, phone, SMS, job ect..)

    6. Select the application you want to change the tone / in this case, notification Messages, or your specific e-mail address

    7. you can now edit the tones of the case and Holster / notifications.
    (a) select between: none, Tone, vibrate, vibrate + tone
    (b) select the range that you want to use
    (c) Select Volume (the options are mute, low, medium, high, climbing)
    (d) to select the number of beeps (the options are 1, 2, 3)
    (e) select Repeat Notification (options are None, flashing LED)

  • New blackBerry for Blackberry Curve smartphones

    Hello! I just got a Blackberry Curve yesterday and now I have a few questions. How you can delete text messages all at the same time without having to remove them one at a time? In addition, if you want to send a text message to several people, how do you do that? Thanks for any help!

    You can do two ways.

    1. First is a prerequisite to delete - select the date, the menu and choose Delete before. This will remove all messages before and including the selected date.
    2. Or if you just want to delete a block of messages, just hold down the SHIFT key (lower left/right keys), and select messages, view the menu and choose Delete Messages

    To send to more than one person, after choosing the first person, the menu and choose Add a recipient
