• BlackBerry Smartphones use Storm 2 as PDA WiFi-Connected (without telephone service)?

  RESOLVED:
  See the second post in this thread for the solution (thanks to wiggler forum member)

  ORIGINAL MESSAGE:

  [I know I am a "retarded" for even bringing this place, but we'll just go beyond the part and talk about what I really want to know here ]

  My wife and I went to an Android (Bionic) for me and an iPhone (4 s) for her. However, his old phone (Storm 2) has recently been replaced because his former 1 storm went wrong on her... and now, since my father thought finally get something to replace his old (not to mention, broken and unusable) Palm device, we thought we might as well give him the Storm 2 and see if it'll work out for what he wants.

  Here's the deal about my father and his PDA... already has a cell phone, so he won't move up to a smart phone, because he does not want to pay the extra money every month just to get a PDA phone when he probably never really use the data service much and all that.

  He wants a phone just to be a phone, and he also wants a PDA... just for the PDA part.

  So, I thought, very well... If he is not willing to move completely in the modern era, then we can at least give him something he can synchronize with Outlook (it works... I already tried) to have its calendar and contacts with him all the time (which it is not able to do with his simple mobile).

  So what I know is that it's possible, at least in a very limited sense... I have the Storm 2 sync with Outlook.
  However, here's my problem... for a reason, even if the wifi card appears to connect to the wifi here in their home access point, it is not actually get an IP address and can't get out on the internet with the browser integrated into all.

  My question is this...
  Is it because it is not possible (i.e. RIM has configured to disable the card wifi within the unit while there is no mobile phone service connected), or who should run, and I should watch more in the sense of something wrong at the level of the home network?

  The reason why I think that it could be something awkward like that within the device itself, it is my new Android and iPhone of the wife are able to connect to the network wireless home here very well.

  Sorry for such a long thing, goofy needs help, but I thought it is a good starting point. If anyone has ideas and is willing to help, please chime.

  p.s. I am a computer scientist. So I have that aspect covered... at least you do not work with a complete * beep * if you jump here.

  I thought about it. I did a search on google for the specific message I saw in 'wi - fi tools' (which was "no longer valid"ip address ") and found this thread...

• BlackBerry Smartphones BB Storm OS

  Hi all. I was wondering, I recently got a storm, and out of the box OS was v4.7.0.75. I was wondering, is there a newer version? One that will perhaps reduce the lag I have experience here and there? Thank you for your future responses.

  The version you have is the most recent/latest 'official' version of Verizon.  There are a multitude of other versions out there, but with a Verizon phone - nothing else that de.75 is not supported at this time

  For many versions of OS that are currently out there, it is also about the same number of threads on these maps, discuss the pros and cons of all the versions.  I would suggest a search fast to familiarize yourself with what is available and if you feel particularly comfortable using a non official OS on your phone.

• BlackBerry Smartphones my Storm retrieves twice my Comcast email?

• BlackBerry Smartphones BB Storm 9530 voice dialing does not?

  I have a problem, try to use the voice dialing on my phone.  He used to work properly, but now whenever I try to access the voice dialing, it goes to screen of voice dialing and it begins Initializing/synchronization, but it cancels any return to the main screen.  I tried to use the convenience keys and touch screen to access the voice dialing.  Nothing works.  Help, please!

  Well, it's not as tragic as one might think... but it's tedious and requires care and attention. I am not really convinced that it's a corrupt... BONE but the process to understand it is basically the same in any case. Let's see... first things first:

  (1) decide what OS you want to install. If your operator has published an updated version, you'd be advised to level because that usually has various fixes and others. You can check your version version supported carriers through this Portal:

  • http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

  Also, you are not limited to a little your carriers released OS... If another carrier has published something with patches or features you want, you can use it... it takes just a little something (see below).

  (2) make a good inventory of all of your applications module that you got from other sources than the AppWorld. AppWorld apps will fine reinstall... others you need to address, including the necessary activation codes.

  (3) see this procedure:

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

  If you have chosen in step 1 above, some other carriers OS package, then insert it between steps 1 and 2 (in the procedure linked here) the deletion of a file named PROVIDER. XML.

  The key to your problem will be causal - since you can not limit any potential cause, I think you really need to be very careful with your apps add-on. I suggest to the foregoing except to provide your addons on your BB. Do slowly, one at a time, leaving perhaps several days or a week between. In this way, you can determine the behavior at startup and therefrom the culprit the app module (assuming causality). If you go through the above OS reloads and immediately put your add-ons, so if the behaviour returns that you have no way of knowing what the cause was... it could have been the OS or one of the Add-ons... you would have no way of knowing for sure. Slow course with the Add - ons gives you the opportunity to discover.

  Good luck and let us know!

• BlackBerry Smartphones support Storm battery

  My question is how many times you charge the battery of the storm? I know the lithium battery has no memory, and there is no need to drain until it is completely dead. 2 bars, or 1 bar? Common sense? My concern on prior batteries, it usually inflates upward when it is fresh too.

  I have me load every night, even when he didn't need it.  Like that, it's always good to go the next day.  Also, I have the Dock of synchronization for the storm and use my storm as a secondary clock when connected (in the case where there is never a power failure).
