BlackBerry Curve 8520 application smartphone is no longer to unlock the password

Hello

I had my Curve 8520 now for almost 4 years and now all of a sudden the password to unlock my device no longer appears. I'm not sure why this happened, but does me no favor, because now anyone can enter. I tried deactivating and reactivating it but without success.

Ok thank you. Please understand that what I try to do is understand your situation... If I misunderstood it, I could give you potentially incorrect advice, some of which may indeed be quite catastrophic. So my understanding of your real and complete situation is essential to prevent that from happening.

If something has changed on your BB to change how it worked before. Since you are not on BES, then generally it Content Protection or encryption... with those under tension, you must have a locking device assigned password. Since you can't remember everything that has changed, we will be then all first consider this as ' behavior strange coincidence "...

Each time a random strange behavior or slowness comes, the first thing to try is a proper reboot:

  • 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.

See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

Good luck!

  • BlackBerry curve 8520 random smartphone reset

    Hi guys I recently got my bb curve 8520, but I noticed that it would be to randomly reboot without having to make a traction battery or the alt-shift-delete method me. There randomly restart twice I am I am very confused as to why she did this and when I rebooted, it started to the top of normal, but when I checked it again it restarts alone, help me please! I don't know if this is normal or what help please!

    Good question.

    A change in the operating system can change the appearance and functionality. The latest version (and it will probably not be another) is OS 5. If you go to Options > on the 3rd down line will tell you the operating system current yours is running - mine is v5.0.0.681 are the latest from my operator (Orange UK).

    When you get to the part in the instructions to go on the web to find the latest version of your carrier it will also give you the choice of an earlier version. 5 OS is good, I have not heard the complaints of those upgrading the OS 4. ? I have heard many for those able to get OS 6 - the 8520 can not.

    As a fail safe module, if you are not yet on OS 5 and that you don't like, you can go back.

    The only other thing that could cause you a problem - BIG problem - if you do not have a backup. Oh and you can see that you already have the latest OS. This gap of PC and start again.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    There is virtually no diagnosis of those - they are the equivalent of random errors in Windows for which trace the root cause is futile. Basically, here's the last out in the programming code - some event occurred for which there is no event handler in the code. The patch is an update of the code that handles the event... but, again, what is the event is almost impossible. So, there are a few things to try:

    Sometimes, the code simply is damaged and needs to be updated - just like a reboot:

    • Each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. 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. See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    If it doesn't boot properly, then you need to try Safe Mode:

    • KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in safe mode

    There may be a code updated to the value of the carrier - check out them through this Portal:

    The toughest possible causes are a bad application behave. To find it, there are two options. Is to see if you can read the log file:

    Go to the home screen. Hold down the "alt" key and type "lglg". (You won't see anything as you type). This will bring up the log file. Scroll down (probably a lot of pages) until you see a line that says "eception execption. Click on this line. The application name will be in the info. Alternative methods to implement the newspapers are in this KB:

    • KB05349 How to activate, view, and extract the the event logs on a BlackBerry smartphone

    The other method is to remove the apps one at a time, wait a while between the two (I usually recommend a week), until the problem stops... revealing the offending application. Yet another method is to recharge the BB OS itself, leaving little time between the addition of other applications on the BB in order to be able to determine exactly what is the cause.

    Good luck and let us know!

  • BlackBerry Curve 8520 smartphones stuck on a 'white screen of death '.

    Hello world

    I have a Blackberry Curve 8520. Yesterday, he got stuck on a white screen, with a little black clock in the middle (the kind you see when you're waiting for a page to load in the browser).

    Even if I turn off my phone, take the battery or put it on charge, this "white screen of death" I read he is described by other people online, won't go away!

    If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

    Ok.

    If your BlackBerry is turned off the power with a black or white screen, follow the instructions below. The only indication of life may be the flashing red indicator light in the upper corner. Nothing seems to wake and Desktop Manager does not recognize that a device is connected.

    (1) make sure that you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/services/desktop/
    (2) on your PC, go to start > run and copy and paste the following line exactly (i.e. with quotation marks):

    'c:\program files\common research in motion\apploader\loader.exe' /nojvm

    (3) the Application Loader Wizard will appear - click on "next".
    (4) in the ' connection: ' drop-down menu, you should see "USB - PIN: UNKNOWN". Click on the button "next".
    (5) you should see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Press Next and finish, and that you are well on your way to get your Blackberry to life. Congratulations! Just unplug and let the process finish completely.

    NOTE: If you do not display the list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead to see the message "the Blackberry Desktop Software has no Blackberry Device Software for the device you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator', then you must download the Blackberry operating system for your support and your device.

    Just select the appropriate type of carrier and network, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the steps above again and you should be on the right track.

  • BlackBerry Curve 8520 Smartphone won't turn on all the way, please help!

    I have a blackberry curve 8520, I bought last month some time.

    I woke up yesterday morning and the balckberry was off and not turn on after that I pushed down on the button. So I loaded for some time, and yet, it wouldn't turn on. Then I took off the charge it, took out the battery, put the battery back and it restarts. The loading bar went well in the end, and my ISP logo appeared. And that's when he stopped loading. All that will show is the logo, it does turn off, unless I get out the battery again.

    I had downloaded an application the previous evening, he stopped working out appworld, which could affect it? I tried to connect it to my computer, but it won't let me delete or add applications.

    I take out the battery for hours and the SD card. He still wiil only turn on until my ISP logo.

    Hi, I recently bought a BlackBerry Curve 8520 Smartphone. I want to transfer music from my computer to the BlackBerry files. I have already installed the BlackBerry Desktop Manager. But even after I connect the BlackBerry to the USB port of my PC, when I click on "Media Manager" in the Desktop Manager, a message appears saying: "Media Manager is only supported using a USB connection, to run the Media Manager, please connect your device to your computer via a USB cable.

Check that BlackBerry USB drivers installed on your computer. »

  • BlackBerry smartphone BlackBerry Curve 8520 stuck in alt mode

    My BlackBerry Curve 8520 you wet a few days earlier, he has since remained dry with all parts removed on top of my Virgin Media box. I checked for damage today & it seems to work very well, besides the fact that he is stuck in alt mode.

    Any suggestions on how I can get it out of the alt mode? The button does not appear to be stuck. The 'alt' in the corner icon changes in '123' when I select the button to the left, but when he deselected the ALT mode changes

    I've done a few handfuls of battery, removed all applications third & re-installed operating system.

    To be able to type normally with letters I either press and hold ' Back/back', 'X' 'V' or 'B' button, or the button of "$". While taking these I can choose if I want to 'alt' or not, but then it returns when I let go anyway.

    Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

    A using the phone just on BB messenger, hold button ' $' to type letters & mode alt exploded its own! Hope he doesn't now!

    Hello

    With water in a BB infiltration, there is only one thing that is certain: the results will be unpredictable.

    See this FAQ:

    Since you've done differently, these unpredictable results may be even more so, as well as the likelihood of any success may have decreased. But, again, it is not predictable. The only thing I can think of is for you to try as stated in the FAQ and we hope for the best (pending the worse, of course).

    Good luck!

    I understand your frustration but the GPS function is not supported by Blackberry Curve 8520, this feature is on most Blackberry 3 G devices. You can consider getting a device that supports the functions such as new phones OS7 except 9220 Curve and 9320. Please see the link below on the specifications of your phone.
