Why my phone should behave mumb silent n when I get a phone call or have to do one and the is to run return is of restarting it.

  This happens usually when application runs in the background, or because of any unknown third-party application installed within our system, or due to lack of memory. Reboot to shoot some time A battery is enough to solve this problem. If press and hold the Menu for a few seconds, it will appear a screen that will display all the programs running in the background, usually five will always be there (host, BBM, Message, phone, browser) you can always check if any other applications. are running in the background, if they then close them properly.

  We should always try to close Applications correctly - avoid using key end to close the applications because it just minimizes the application and let it run in the background. Instead, press the Menu key, select close or Exit to exit the application. Do not leave your browser open on a page of Web active when not in use. If programs are running in the background, that this will lead to problems that you are experiencing now. Please take a look at this Article, I don't know that it will help you overcome your problems:

  Original title; Unable to connect to my Blackberry smartphone

  Since the last Windows Update August 17, I can no longer connect my computer to my phone smart blackberry to sync my contacts and calendar

  Thanks for your help. I decided to check with my Blackberry service provider, and they were able to fix the problem by simply removing and then reinsert the cell phone battery while it was connected to my computer. The old trick 'the battery '. Never thought of that.

  Thanks again!

• BlackBerry smartphones my questions on the Storm 2 9520

  Hello everyone I do not have a Blackberry but I intend to update my phone soon and get a (I currently have a Nokia N95 8 GB). I looked through the list of Blackberry models, and the 9520 that I fell in love was the Storm 2 9520. I will probably get one, but I have several questions that I couldn't find clear answers on google. I'm picky about details on a phone, so I want to know everything before get you it. Here is the list of things that I had on my mind:

  -J' read that this phone records videos in 3gp format and not mp4. I'm a little worried about that, because I feel 3gp is less intense than mp4 by Windows (Win 7 user here). For example, 3gp, I filmed with an old phone years ago don't even open correctly in most players and no audio. So, is the format the phone records in playable correctly in Windows (Linux too)?

  -J' I always rename my pictures and my videos after taking. With the 9520, you can click a button or menu entry to rename an image / clip immediately after making it? Or they be saved with a name only automated, and you need to open your file browser and navigate to the file to be renamed?

  -A curiosity, I got on the touch screen if it is based only on the detection of heat or by pressing physics too. What I've seen, the heat detection is used when you lightly touch the screen and select the stuff / drag, while only pressing is used actually click. I'm curious because I could use my phone outside in the winter when I have leather gloves, and the screen can not detect my body energy then. Of course, it is difficult to use any phone with gloves, but I sometimes do to some extent

  -Use the charger micro-usb port, or another port? I know that some devices that use USB for charging and connection to the computer, which is a method that I prefer in general. No problem if it is not, just curious.

  -In the specs of the phone, it says maximum 8 GB micro-SD cards are supported. Someone can confirm that more cards are inconsistent and do not work (16 / 32 GB ones)?

  -J' read on a website that the only way to configure e-mail is to have a Blackberry Enterprise Server (do not exactly know what what). But you need to register with Blackberry using a classic IMAP / POP email account (like gmail or yahoo mail)? And besides, you need to register with any Blackberry service to use 3 G internet supplier or to use messenger (YIM MSN and AIM)? I'm guessing not, but always ask to be sure.

  -J' heard some phones have this limit / problem, so just to be safe: can put you MP3 transferred from your computer as ringtones? Or do you need to download them online from special services, as I heard some phones force you to?

  -J' read on several websites that there are complications with the installation of applications via the data cable. That's how I install most of my programs of others on phones. So if I have a jar or jad file on my desktop, is there no possible to install it via data cable unless I have an additional file with it? Same question for no java Blackberry applications.

  -All Web sites mention that the OS 5 web browser does not support flash on web pages (which I find quite sad). However, I can still play the files flash directly from my phone so I just open the swf file?

  -Can you play audio files in ogg / wav format? In addition, it can play video ogv, avi or mpeg?

  -Can I download themes for it that change the icons and colors of the menus? I guess the definition of custom screen (independent of the subject) shouldn't be a problem. Also, is there a free software that allows you to create your own themes and exporting it to the phone via data cable?

  -Are there also a front-facing camera for 3G video chat?

  -J' read on the differences between the 9520 and 9550 and that the 9550 has a frequency of additional network, sure it can work. Everyone says that you can not use a Blackberry in America if you buy it in Europe, in particular the 9520. Is this true? And the more vital than the 9520 9550 compatibility?

  -OS 6 will come to the 9520 too? Some sites say it won't, while than others whether in devices that it will support an update. Hope very much it will be

  -Finally, this could be a sensitive issue and I don't know how poorly seen on it is here. But it's easy to unlock / debrand the 9520? I would like to get the latest versions of firmware and do not have the limited phone.

  Someone mentioned the provider to branding is not done for commercial reasons, but in order to keep the compatible phone (and shouldn't even be illegal to debrand). So I think it should be ok.

  Yes, they are a lot of questions that may seem ridiculous. I got this phone for several years, so I want to know all about it. Thanks to all those who can help you meet them, and keep up the good work with phones

  3GP is the native video recording format. All you need is the codec on your PC to read. I downloaded a free transcoder and it not only transcode avi (and other formats) for me, but also to put the codec appropriate in what I can play natively without transcoding. QuickTime, I think a codec were also held. There are plenty of audio and the recorded video.

  In fact, storm BBs use two detection of heat as well as the physical press. It's called SurePress technology. Heat detection determines where on the screen you touch and then physical pressure activates the 'click' somehow. The entire screen is great physical button, whose activity is determined by your finger on the screen position when you press. As such, I doubt it'll work with gloves on at all. I know, on the ski slopes, I remove my glove to do something with my 9550.

  On the BB, a port for all functions. Micro USB for charging and attached USB data transfer. When connected to a PC with the drivers installed, the BB will be time load (from the USB port of the PC) as well as allow the transfer of data.

  Technically, the BB model is unrelated to the size of the SD card, it supports. It is rather a function of the OS level that the BB is running according to the instructions this KB:

  But I'm not sure of your premises. You seem to be saying that you are locked in your level of update of carriers, as long as your BB is blocked. This is false. Unlocking is simply the function to allow your BB run on a network of different carriers... at the level of the BONE is irrelevant to that. You are free to use the carriers released OS for your specific model BB... There is just a tiny thing that you need to follow. But unlocking is not necessary to do so. There's nothing illegal or anything about unlocking. But it is useless unless and until you want to reverse your BB to another carrier.

  So why is that happening?

  I remember my phone Blackberry software update is the other day - what is this might be a link, how can he know?

  Please help - I don't want say yes incase I get all my entries duplicated in my new calendar (Yes, had this problem too).

  Its possible that the service books have been updated with update and Desktop Manager is to see it as a new calendar.

  If you say yes to the prompt new calendar, at worst, your BlackBerry could reproduce some calendar entries, but that can be easily resolved.

• BlackBerry smartphones, I want just that my BlackBerry to crush all contacts and events calendar

  Curiously, before 10.6.1 PocketMac works beautifully: my BlackBerry is my gospel for all contacts, and all events.  I would regularly synchronize it with my G4 to keep my MAC and then update to sync my iPhone with my Mac.  Certainly not the most elegant of the methods, but it worked perfectly for me.

  Now then - is anyway to put the new software RIM of simply replacing the MAC (iCal and address book) with data already on the BlackBerry?  I don't want a two-way synchronization: I don't want to "Replace all the contacts on this smart phone BlackBerry."  What I want is the antithesis of this command.

  The calendar option seems to be able to do, but not the Contacts?

  Any help or idea would be greatly appreciated.

  Theo

  Studio City, CA

  Hmmm... well - I myself have solved sort (but only for the calendar) and I have to keep on my toes on where I get stuff.

  I created a NEW calendar in iCal (empty of course) and said RIM software to sync ONLY to this calendar and everything went very well. Then I resynched my iPhone and iTunes says to only use the NEW calendar that now appears on the list of calendars.  I also changed the settings on the iPhone to make the new test calendar default view now.

  But since this is a two-way synchronization I always update the BlackBerry and never update the iCal calendar to keep both abreast (and keep the BB as the main source and do not have the mini infiltrate MAC the BB data).

  As my calendar dates are much more dynamic it works fine.  I'm always suspicious to do it for the address book and because changes to these entries are not too frequent I will put those manually (once, certainly NOT what I wanted to do, but it will suffice for now).

• BlackBerry Smartphones Newbie question Outlook synchronization...

  I know, I know you crackberry Masters must make fun of my basic question, but it drives me crazy.

  I want to curve. I'll use it for personal and business email accounts. Work email is through MS Exchange. I can access my email using Microsoft Outlook Web Access. Our server does not have this fancy/expensive Blackberry Enterprise Software Solution.

  Can I still sync my email to my Blackberry Wireless and untethered work? What are the downsides to not have the fancy software / expensive?

  You'll be always my friend, if you can answer this fundamental question in simple terms.

  Hi anrobb!

  You will be able to receive your email wireless without the BlackBerry Enterprise Solution (BES). You can use the BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) to deliver your email. There are two ways this can be accomplished:

  1-direct integration of your account Outlook Web Access (OWA). Here, you must create an BIS account and enter your information to OWA, such as the web address of the OWA server, your email address, mailbox name and password. BIS will use this information to analyze your mailbox for new messages at a time interval determined (basically every 15 minutes) and send it to all new mail he sees to your BlackBerry.

  2. create a hosted mailbox and set up a redirection rule. Most (if not all) carriers offer only a free hosted BlackBerry e-mail address when you have a BlackBerry plan. For example, a customer of Verizon could create an email [email protected]. E-mail messages that are sent to these hosted email addresses are pushed to the device, so they come almost in real time. Once you have set up, hosted email address you (or your IT staff) define a redirection rule in your mail server to forward a copy of all new messages to the hosted e-mail address. The next step would be to connect to your BIS account and modify the reply-to field to be your professional email address. This it will bring up that the emails sent from your BlackBerry come from your work email.

  A difference in the use of the use of BIS on BES is that you cannot synchronize wireless your address book, calendar, notes and them tasks with BIS - you will need to connect to a computer. BES offers many other features as well, but I won't get it here.

  See you soon!

• BlackBerry Smartphones sync will not sync all calendar items

  Everything worked fine until a few days ago, well I noticed it this morning.  My Outlook calendar has NOTHING of my future appointments. I don't know how or why they were deleted. Appointments are on my Black Berry Torch schedule, but they will not synchronize.

  I tested with sync settings trying to force synchronization.

  I changed the default calendar account.

  I tried all the files suggested troubleshooting assistance.

  Here's the strange thing... If I create a new appointment in outlook, or on my phone they synchronize correctly.  But the appointments that has disappeared from my computer will not synchronize.

  What I did, however, set is: I don't know what fixed!   I took the black berries on another computer I rarely ever synchronize with just to see what would happen. All data, including mysterious calendar synchronized (leaked?) correctly entries.  OK, so I've narrowed the problem to my laptop (which is the computer that I had the problem with when you posted this thread).

  So I took the blackberry to my laptop, logged, sank and nothing, the calendar, same question.  Then I hit reset in the desktop software and tried to sink again, and it worked as if by magic.  So I guess that reset solved the problem.   Everything from the phone, including mystery calendar entries are now synchronized.  I guess I should have tried the obvious earlier instead of trying all of these advanced settings. K.I.S.S.

• 2 blackBerry Smartphones newbie questions: do I need it, and how I spoil my phone?

  Sorry for the newbie questions:

  My IT has already set up my phone to receive email from their Blackberry Enterprise Server.

  (1) do I still need to install the desktop software?  Given that I can transfer files via Bluetooth from my laptop and my contacts/calendar/notes are stored on the Exchange Server, is there any point?

  (2) if I do not need to install it, given that my email is already working with BES, and the Office installation configures email settings, how do I keep the new Desktop install to mess up the current configuration of e-mail?

  Of all the notes of support on the software, looks like more trouble whereas at this stage.  I really need to treat it?

  Thank you.

  There is not much need of DTM, but it is convenient to update the OS of your BB. Sometimes there will be releases of minor bugs corrections and such to your BB - DTM will be meaningless and install them, while updating wireless could not detect them. For a major OS update, you want DTM, as it will do a backup/complete restoration of your BB, including configuration settings, and others so that you don't have to redo those. But, to your e-mail, calendar, contacts, etc. - you are right, it is useless given that your Exchange Server is actually your master with your BB being actually a backup of that (in a sense).

  In addition, USB drivers (which are part of the package DTM) are necessary in order to charge your BB via your laptop USB. You can download and install all the USB drivers if this is the only part of the DTM you want.

  When you install it, it will ask if you are in a company - say Yes and it will install properly. Installation when your PC is connected to your corporate network and your Outlook is open. Who will get the best and fastest configuration. When you install, do not let it select the functions of auto-launch... If you wish, attach your BB and manually run the DTM.

  Of all the notes of support on the software, looks like more trouble whereas at this stage.  I really need to treat it?

  Basically, on the whole, I vote 'YES'. You get the USB charging. You can save if you wish. You get the device OS and other updates. Most of the reported problems are people using it to synchronize via USB things - you won't do that because most of your stuff will be syncing via BES OTA. Other things, you can simply drag-and - drop (music, videos, etc.). .. .follow these instructions (use the latest 5.0 DTM):

• BlackBerry Smartphones newby questions

  I just took a Curve 8330.  It's very different from what I'm used to, and so I have a few questions.

  1. I use Outlook Express to my main e-mail address.  It doesn't have a fixed schedule.  Does anyone have a suggestion as to what I should look for in a calendar that I can sync the BB to?  Is there a recommendation on a particular calendar?

  2. I probably exaggerated email accounts on my BB, but at this stage I am not prepared to cancel because of personal and professional e-mails on the BB.  Am I missing something?  Seems to me that I should be able, through BlackBerry Desktop Manager, go to my BB and delete e-mail messages using my PC.

  3. I can't use the Application Loader for the 8330.  The message is «BlackBerry Desktop Software has no peripheral BB software for the device you have connected to the computer...» "When I check updates is not one for the 8330.  I went to Verizon.  They say they get the BB site update.  Is there another way to get the update of the software?  Is there another way to download apps?

  4. I looked on the BB site for an email about these issues, but cannot find the link.  Where is - am I on it?

  Not a bad idea at all, the only stupid question is one that is not asked

• BlackBerry smartphone how to save previous Outlook calendar items during synchronization?

  When I sync my new blackberry he invites me to remove all items from calendar from my Office Outlook since before I got the blackberry.  How can I keep my previous calendar items in my Outlook on my desktop?  I did not need them on my blackberry, but I need it on my desk as a record.

  Dear friend,

  Thank you very much!  I had spent a lot of time on this one and I really appreciate your help.  Once I discovered that Research in Motion has no support in person after the failure of online research, I called the Verizon store.  He told me that I have to buy a new software package in order to save my previous calendar data, and then he suggested that I have post my question on the forum.  I'm so happy I did.  Thanks again.

• BlackBerry smartphones can not synchronize Outlook 2007 calendar with Alltel BB 8330

  Ok... Looks like a lot of people have this problem. Here is what I have

  Vista Home Basic SP1

  Outlook 2007 (as part of Office Enterprise 2007)

  Running OS 4.5.0.127 BB8330

  Configured with two accounts-Default calendar/e-mail account is the same account Outlook. (I have Groupwise at work... This isn't the default account/calendar)

  BlackBerry DM 4.5

  Here's what I tried...

  Uninstalled and reinstalled many times DM

  Install the latest version of DM (4.7)

  Latest device OS (4.5)?

  Delete the Intellisync folder

  Only calendar Sync

  DM running as administrator

  Remove all the BB calendar entries associated with the Groupwise e-mail account

  Have run scanpst on Outlook and repaired the file (he said he had some problems)

  First great Sync worked, the only thing I did between the first and the second synchronization have been changing some recurring calendar events and adds two events to my calendar for the Groupwise account. I deleted since these events Groupwise and calendar don't show any entries when I look under the calendar options.

  Now, I get the error "Desktop Manager has stopped working" much-discussed when DM begins to deal with my Outlook calendar. It syncs contacts very well, bed and treats the calendar of the device, then reads 631 records of Outlook calendar, starts processing Outlook calendar files and stops immediately. I have to reboot to get the DM to try to synchronize again. Here is the log of the Intellisync folder...

  It's disconcerting. I used a Palm TX for years and was happy to jump into the world of BB. I love the phone, but I bought it mainly to keep track of my schedule. I am not impressed and rest 26 days to test. I hate to take it back to Alltel but its useless unless I can easily and surely to synchronize the calendar. Everyone you have all the answers?

  OK... Here's the update. I tried a few things, too many to enter in, and nothing has worked. Finally, I have downlaoded and installed Companionlink Express and... presto! I can sync again. 49.95 for Companionlink software. It looks like the BB people might write (or buy) a decent piece of software. I bought the 8330 mainly to help me cope with my calendar. When this does not work, I got a cell phone for $ 200 million. RIM has almost come back! Furthermore, the site is www.companionlink.com.

• BlackBerry smartphones the 2003 Outlook to BB calendar sync

  I have a BB Torch 9800.  I am using the BB desktop software 6.0 2647 Sync. I went under the label of the Organizer, and select Organizer data to synchronize.  I hit the reset and discount schedule, Memo, address and tasks and it is said that he has set up successfully. However, after you click OK, it says calendar is 'not installed '.  Could someone help (in very simple language not COMPUTER please) on how to correct.  Everything is syncing with the exception of the calendar.  Thank you.

  Fine, please try the following:
