BlackBerry smartphone WiFi help for a new user

Hello

I'm all new to Blackberry and have had the beautiful curve for 3 days (it is always brilliant)!

I managed to synchronize with the desktop computer, to connect to my car for handfree Bluetooth, but I can't connect to my router wireless BT Home Hub for some reason any.

I followed the instructions and the phone displays the connection and says it is connected but does not work.  If I go on manage connections, it shows the connection (I called him 'home') with a nice green icon showing the phone can see wifi but there is a black box in front of it with a dash of white.

Anyone got any ideas?

I'm not via enterprise server yet (need to upgrade to Lotus notes apparently).  I phoned also support technique of Vodafone that says I need a subscription to use wifi which, when I questioned our vodafone business account manager he said was silly.  But still no wifi.

There is also a wifi logo top right of my screen which shows is gray and black, that mean anything?

Thanks much for any help.

Tim (a bit frustrated but still in love with my curve).

It's settled.  Apparently, vodafone to fix something in the number to make it work...

  • BlackBerry Smartphones needed help for my Blackberry storm 2

    Hi, I need some help... I'm new to Blackberry and for Christmas had a Blackberry Storm 2, SIMFREE.

    All works well wait I can't send or receive personal e-mail or MMS. I contact my network provider and spend more than 1 hour on the phone and nothing helps.

    When I access internet - Blackberry internet service, it says 'Existing users' and ask you a user name and password but it will not regconsied, it says that my device is not registered at my network provider say it is, and so I'm stuck.

    Also I can not send Multimedia messages or receive neither.

    Remember that you pay your carrier every month for them to provide you with a quality service.

    Contact them again and ask them to set up your account properly.
    Once that is done, go here and create a new BIS account.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones a few questions a new user

    I receive a Blackberry Curve 8300 for work using the Alltel network. I still use a BB, but I have to learn pretty quickly if I can help around our offices.

    I have a few questions

    1. each BB has wifi capabilities? Specifically the 8300? Specify this BlackBerry.com or alltel.com.

    2. can I change the layout of the buttons? I'd rather have all the buttons on the bottom of the screen instead of the side.

    3. it comes preloaded with a sort of mobile office applications? Outlook, word, etc. Or does with a BlackBerry version?

    4. What is the best app to sync with my PC to day/change settings/programs?

    Thank you!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Urgent help for a blind man to please...

    I would be really grateful if anyone can help.

    My boss is blind and to Japan for a few weeks and relies on his Blackberry for contact. (blackberry speaks his messages to him).

    It is impossible to connect to any network at the Japan, even if roaming is enabled (I just spoke with 02).

    He tried to put his sim in another phone to the Japan and it worked so we think it is a box on his Blackberry, which must be checked/unchecked.

    We tried to change the "manual mode", as part of the Mobile network, but that did not work either is not available all the networks and the network there are currently on says 'none '.

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you very much

    Could be the 8900 is not a 3G device, the 9300 is a 3G device, and aircraft carriers Japanese I remember correctly, use bandwidths different simple EDGE radio that the 8900 is capable of.

    Can it connect to a WiFi hotspot, and if so, it could probably use WiFi for data like email and such.

    The 8900 has these bandwidths:
    GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

    The 9300 has these bandwidths:
    2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
    Network 3G HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
    HSDPA 900 / 1700 / 2100

    If I remember correctly, the Japanese carrier NTT Docomo are a network HSDPA and UMTS, which both networks are basically 3 g.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones need help for a friend to put in place their email from bb

    I have a bb bold and never had any trouble setting to the top of my email. But my friend has problems with it.  She is on Verizon and was able to set up the email so that she could receive emails, but she is not able to send everyone's messages.  It has been suggested by Verizont that she has set up the email via IMAP instead of pop.  She asked me to help in obtaining his itinerary, but I couldn't find anything about whether online about setting up in the email set up.  Someone at - it guidance, I can email him about setting up email?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    When you set up your email, you can, control inside the BRI, IMAP and pop. It is rather a function of the server to which you point a for your email - IMAP if so, BIS will configure IMAP. Many e-mail providers provide separate email POP or IMAP servers... some are combined on a single server. Not knowing your email provider, it is impossible to tell you what makes your e-mail provider. But, here are some links that might be useful:

    I hope that these help!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones need help with the new sim card

    I don't know why I have such a hard time finding how to do this. It's really making me feel like a * beep * here, so any help will be appreciated

    I'm on Sprint here in the United States and I'm on a trip to Romania in a few weeks and I wanted to have my phone all set up in advance. I bought a prepaid SIM Vodafone Romania, and told me that it is active and active international roaming. I tried it in 2 unlocked bolding my 9930 current and my old 9650. All I get is SOS and emergency calling only, both on AT & T or T-Mobile. I can't yet figure out how to get the phone number attached to the card. What's on the map with that he came are BPUK PIN and PUK. And I can't record with MyVodafone on their website without the phone number. I don't really know how to proceed. I was hoping to use SMS in roaming here until I leave.

  • Change of Smartphones BlackBerry ID blackBerry for a new user

    I bought a new Q10 and got the Rogers unlock code for my old Bold 9900 for my son IO use on behalf of wind. I dropped all the data from the old device, but it still uses my BBID when you try to access the BBM (I kept my new device BBID)

    How can I go on assignment again ID BB for my son to use for the old "BOLD"?

    Wipe the old unit with a security wipe. I don't know exactly who the phone OS is running, but it should be under Options > Options or security > device > Security. Once the phone has been cleared, power back on. You will be prompted to sign in with a BlackBerry ID, or you can register for a new. He grabs a new one and everyone is happy.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    You must uninstall all packages of BB device software from your PC. Then, install the exact OS that this BB is running on your PC:

    • KB23393 How to check the model number and the version of the BlackBerry device software on a BlackBerry smartphone

    If this OS package comes from one carrier other carrier for which your BB was built, then remove, on your PC, all copies of the SELLER. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

    Then, when you run the Desktop software then connect this BB, appropriate things should appear in the AppLoader screen for her (note that, if you connect that to other BB currently displayed correctly, it does display properly since the Desktop software is substituted by the installed PC, the package of BB OS).

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry smartphones please help me

    HY,

    Translation by Google:

    Everything began to be replaced by an old mobile Blackberry Curve 9300 for a new 9300
    Initially, I connect my old laptop to perform a backup.
    I connect the new and restored with the old backup.
    And starting problems:
    Initially I have found all my applications, after a ride on this forum B and am active Blackberry option. I thought that I had on my old laptop...
    But I'm still all of the missing Blackberry universe.

    I connect my Blackberry Desktop, it tells me I can do an update from 5.0 to 1419 Pack Update pack 6.0 1879.

    But the problem and not the update bug.

    Following error message:

    An update to the Blackberry Desktop software component must be installed before proceeding. I'm okay then after seconds qqs:

    An error occurred during the update of your software
    The list of applications on your device is have been downloaded.

    However, I take things and I have zero reset my laptop with a factory reset.
    I past either directly through the laptop and the laptop tells me that there is no update available.
    So at the moment no update my software.

    Then I try to reopen a Blackberry ID session and still the problem:

    I know that my email user, I maintain the Blacberry ID confirmation email, but I forgot the password.
    I requested a new password, he asked me the secret question. I answer and it crashes with the following messages:

    You have reached the maximum number of authentication attempts with your credentials. For security reasons, this feature has been blocked for 15 minutes.
    or else
    You have reached the maximum number of authentication attempts with your credentials. For security reasons, this feature has been locked. If you have forgotten your password, use her you forgot your password feature to select another.

    What should I do?

    Please help me!

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    You have a lot of questions... so it is difficult to separate. I'll try both, I think I can identify:

    Please see this post "sticky" for useful information about your situation BBID:

    I hope that this information will be useful to you.

    With respect to the update/reload of your operating system, the easiest way is on a PC (you can't do this on MAC):

    (1) make sure that you have a current backup and your BB complete... you can find the instructions at the link in my auto-sig below.

    2) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,

    (3) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

    (4) download and install on your computer, the BB OS package you want:

    • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    • If all you want are the levels of BONE, it is first sorted by carrier - the carrier supports, your search will be fast. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To really get the package up-to-date OS for your BB, you need to dig through and find all businesses that support your specific model BB and then compare the BONE levels they support.

    5) remove all copies of the SELLER on your PC. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

    6 (a) to change your level of BB OS installed (at level or lower), you can run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC.

    6 (b) or, for recharging your BB OS level installed as well to change, work around the Desktop software and use the CHARGER. EXE directly, through step 2 in this process:

    If, during the process of 6a or 6 b, your BB has an error '507', simply unplug the USB of the BB cord and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue.

    You can also study the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe what he is capable.

    You can also try the "skeleton OS Reload procedure" in an attempt to circumscribe the precise causal element:

    1. Load your OS "bare bones"... If everything is optional, do not install it.
    2. If the behavior is immediately, then try another OS with step 1
    3. If the behavior does not immediately, then run for as long as necessary to make you to be sure that the behavior will not occur.
    4. Add one more thing - no matter how tempting, one.
    5. If the behavior does not immediately present, and then runs for long enough to be sure he won't have the same problem
    6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are responsible or the behavior presents

    When the behavior shows up, you know the culprit... the last thing you have loaded.

    If the behavior doesn't re-present, then you know that step 1 or 2 cured it.

    If the behavior has anything, then you have probably a problem of material level for which no amount of OS or software can heal.

    You may also use these tips:

    If you are on a MAC, you are limited to only your sanctioned carriers OS packages... but can still use any level they currently have to sanction. See this procedure:

    Hi all.  I need help as soon as possible please. I have searched, but probably did not use the right conditions to refine what I was looking for.  But I need someone who can help as soon as possible.

    I have a client with a Bold 9700, I've updated since a curve 8230-, but had similar questions.  In any case, the customer has several folders and rules in Outlook 2007 to move the items in those folders.

    The problem: when I navigate to Options > e-mail settings > Folder Redirection - shows desktop only and it is not extensible.   If I choose to view the folders, I see that browser and nothing related to Outlook folders.  We use the synchronization for ALL wireless and DM is not available for the Office of the customer.

    Activation of a new device.

    Remove CMIME and sending Service books.

    Updated the encryption key
