BlackBerry smartphone security wipe on bb curve 8520

Hello everyone, I had a question about the erasure of BlackBerry security.

I wonder if during the erasure of security ('emails, conctats etc.' and 'user installed applications' checkboxes checked) my sms messages will be deleted...

I have to take my camera to a friend, do you find security secure erase?

Yes, security wipe is the sure way to rid your system of all it's data. Do not remove the installed user applications as the wipe will erase the data in applications, but not applications. However, you can delete the user installed applications if you wish.

  • BlackBerry smartphone security wipe with any BIS - bbm

    Hi guys, I've changed my blackberry for an iphone, so I cancelled my BIS and changed my tarrif plan towards an iphone one. I removed the SIM card, so the phone says insert sim card and SOS signal. I then went through and deleted my bbm contacts after it made a complete security wipe, and I came back to the blackberry. It went well and everything was clear.

    But a couple of my friends said im still on BBM out there but when contact lists they me message that they get an 'X' red beside the message were it should be a D or R. I was wondering how I'm still on lists here if I deleted all the and safety wiped? Is it because I did it when there was no ENCORE for the blackberry could not send data on the servers of remove me contacts? If so what will happen when the next person gets my phone and BIS it will automatically synchronize what I did and remove me from my friends BBM?

    Help, please

    Thank you

    Right, red x means that the message has not been sent because the contact does not exist. If she sent the message, the friend would simply see a message sent without D or R beside the message. If the messages have been received by the other device, it would show a D as delivered, but of course the message is not delivered to your old BlackBerry.

  • BlackBerry smartphone security wipe, lack of features

    Hi people,

    Has just been given a Curve 8520 by my son, lucky me. When he gave it to me, he had all of its parameters to another network and wifi. So I thought it would be easier to do a thorough cleaning and start a new one.

    However, since doing so I have no e-mail setup and no option to update software or wifi. "" I tried to download the new software, but it happens in the ' Check for updates screen "and goes no further. I have to close and restart the computer. I left it running for more than 3 hours thinking that it can work, but nothing helped. I tried with the desktop running and without, with and without sim card software.

    Someone has any ideas

    Hello

    It is also likely that these features are absent because the device must be connected to the BlackBerry network.  Go to Options > Advanced Options > host Routing Tables, press the BB Menu key and select Save now.  Who will be re - register your device on the network BlackBerry and should download the necessary info to get your device will.  Be aware that you will have a BlackBerry data plan on your device to do this, so be sure that it is set up in advance.  If this is not the case, contact your carrier to do it for you.

    Once this is done, you may also send your service books.  The steps above should display your e-mail settings, and once it goes to the e-mail settings, connect to BIS (if necessary), press the BB Menu key and select Service books.  You can then return your Service books.

    Note: If this still does not work, you may need to reload the OS.  If you must go this route try the procedure described here:

  • BlackBerry smartphones no synchronization between the curve 8520 & outlook 2010

    Hello community!

    I'm a newbie on this forum; I'm french, so my English is perhaps confused...

    Here's my problem detailed below:

    Info on the device

    carrier: Orange France - but I don't have internet on my laptop (I use it on the phone...)

    Information model: curve 8520; OS version: v4.6.1.314 (no provision)

    Apps and free space

    File: 142691188 bytes

    Installed apps and their version if possible.   (Go to settings, then Options, then applications): no

    The BT model/version device (you have to look at the BT device): what is it?

    BB Desktop Software: v7.1.0.41

    My question

    I checked some-related posts on this, but it's a little different.

    For my settings, I choose to sync from my PC to the Terminal, the only contacts & calendar with outlook profile.

    When you synchronize, it seems to fill up in the reading of the stage of the Microsoft Outlook calendar, and desktop software (v4.6) then goes very slow to play a recording and crashes after the reading of 222 results; then, it opens a window with 'Rim.Desktop.exe application error - the application generated an unhandled exception' (in french). I checked with the forums without finding a good solution.

    I followed the advice to cleanly uninstall Desktop Software with my previous settings, download the last (but identical to the one I had) version, re-installed, re-set my settings, and it hangs again.

    Any suggestions would be VERY APPRECIATED!

    Sincerely yours

    Hello

    I am pleased to tell you that my pb seems resolved!

    What have I done?

    One of my colleagues told me that I could have too many folders in my calendar.

    So:

    -J' copied my outlook 2010 calendar - to have a backup, just in case...

    -J' erased all records of 1 August 2013: to do this, I searched for all meetings, sorted by end date and choose the one I want to remove (I noticed that I had a record displays a huge amount of time, but has not taken the time to study)

    - and I started the synchronization; I have no more error message, I noticed that I was still about 1000 records schedule, but it synced without any pb

    -J' checked on my device and recordings are here!

    so, I don't know if it's a problem with the number of records, or with registration multiplied by XXX...

    As it seems to work now, I won't try your solution yet ("if it ain't broke... ») !

    Thank you very much for your help! I'll keep this thread in my archives!

    best regards to you all

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not unlock 8330 curve

    I use a security code on my BB Curve 8330.  I tried to synchronize media files today through the desktop (win XP) USB interface and has been invited to enter a password.  I used my security code and password account BB, neither worked.  I unplugged the USB cable and now cannot unlock the device by using the keyboard.  Twice I have re-set the device (battery removed), and we invited to enter the word "blackberry" I did.  When you are prompted to unlock the device, I try to enter my code, but instead of the usual displays of * (standard characters when you type a password), I see on the screen the characters I entered.  I use a 4-digit number for my unlock code, but when I get in I see the corresponding value of QWERTY (eg.  type '2' see 'e' on the screen)

    Now I have 9 of 10 attempts and don't want to lose my data.  How can I get this think unblocked?

    1. While you still can, on your BlackBerry smartphone, change the password to something very simple, alpha characters only, not numbers, without capital letters. To do this before you lose all your data. Enter the incorrect password ten times will wipe your device of all data, contacts, calendar, etc.

    2. you probably think that you have a number or a capital letter in your password, and you don't really have.

    for example, if you think your password is "w3rs", try alpha correspondent character and the PW would be "wers".

    You never noticed the error, because the entry hidden on the password.

    Good luck.
