BlackBerry smartphones alert icon - red circle with an arrow at the bottom right and the letter W in the Middle?

I have a Blackberry Curve 8530 (Verizon).  This red circle with the letter W in the Middle appeared yesterday next to the symbol of the envelope for new msgs, etc at the top of the main screen.  It has a small arrow on the lower right edge and a number 1 next to it.  What is c?  And where to go to open, read or see what it means?

The notice says you have an application that you previously downloaded or purchased in App World > My World, which is ready for an upgrade on your device. Look there for the upgrade.

To clear the notification on the screen, find the alert message in your main folder, read or delete it.

In the future, you might find the search function (top-right on EVERY page of this forum), useful for you.

Good luck!

  • New icon for blackBerry Smartphones? Circle with an arrow pointing diagonly, with a red dot

    Hi people.

    A new icon has just appeared... no idea what/how it happened.

    It is a circle with an arrow pointing to the South West (if it was a compass). It also has a red dot on the top right of the circle.

    Has anyone experienced this and know what it is?

    Thanks in advance

    The icon indicates that there is a message unread, referring probably to the fact that there is an update available for a certain application in the BlackBerry App World.

    Since this is a generic message and not related to a specific account, the message must be visible by clicking on the Messages icon.

    Open the messages application/folder and you should find the message it informing you that there is an update available in App World. The message should send you to the appropriate application that must be updated.

    I don't think that you need to update the application to get rid of the icon; simply open the message should clear.

    See you soon!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones new icon - what does that mean?

    A new icon has appeared under the time / date on my 9550 (Verizon): No. 5 next to a circle with a diagonal arrow, from the top right of the circle pointing downwards to the lower left of the circle.  There is a small red circle with a white X in it covering the place from the arrow.  I think that the red circle with the White x means an update is available, and I thought that the circle with the arrow means Blackberry App World, but there seems to be some updates for the app world, and it does not appear that any of my downloaded apps have any update available either so maybe I'm wrong.  I did a hard reboot, but it's still there.  Any ideas?

    It's the AppWorld.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones new icon/Logo

    I just checked my phone and there is an icon at the top of the screen where any other view would be i.e. text, email, facebook, etc, but I have not seen this one before. It is a small black circle with an arrow pointing down and to the left, with a small red circle, which I think is the same when an email is unchecked. I went to the application Center and downloaded updates for google talk and number 4 is still there, as it was before the upgrade. I am running execution.151

    Thanks in advance

    Reportedly, this icon is the icon of upgrade to BlackBerry App World.  This icon indicates essentially that there are updates for the applications that you have downloaded to your phone.  Try going into App World and My World.  I think you should see what needs to be updated there.

    See iPod displays an icon 'X' Red - Apple Support. Despite the date of the last update of this document, I doubt Apple have much interest in the classic iPod service.

  • BlackBerry smartphones is this a problem with my Bold 9700 flash memory?

    A few annoying problems recently with my Bold 9700.

    First, my Blackberry has suddenly started to massively delete recent appointments in my calendar, which will attempt to remove them from my Outlook calendar when I synchronize the device to my laptop.  This has not happened before, and I checked to make sure that the schedule is set to never delete nominations, and it is set correctly.

    Second, my Blackberry App World application (both on the device and online) does not display one of my installed applications, except one, but they are all still on the device and working properly.  I'm 18 apps installed from BB App World, beyond the pre-installed applications on the device, which are less than 10 MB in total size.

    The reason I think that the problem could be linked to the internal flash memory is that whenever I want to install an application, I usually get a message indicating there is enough memory and I have to uninstall some other applications to free up space.  When I checked my memory earlier, he said that had less than 1 MB.  I restarted the machine and now it tells me there is 12.2 MB of available space, which always seems incredibly low for me since I installed only about 10 MB of my own applications.  So, I delete the file all attachments of the device and do not keep e-mail on the device beyond 30 days, and all media is stored on flash cards, not in the device memory.

    The most important question I have to solve is how to prevent the device to delete data from calendar (it keeps recurring appointments, but has been deleted and everything before about two weeks ago).

    Hello

    It's an automatic protection mechanism with BBs. During the AppMemory (not the device, no media memory card memory) get low, the BB must start deleting things to preserve its ability to operate. Unfortunately, he really can't go after data... it can't really go after installed applications. Here are some tips to use:

    • KB02843 What is the function of low memory manager on the BlackBerry smartphone
    • KB14320 How to maximize space and power battery life on the BlackBerry smartphone
      • KB14213 Call logs, SMS text and email messages are deleted from the BlackBerry smartphone
    • KB10183 E-mail messages are removed from the BlackBerry device until the messages expire

    In addition, it is always important to correctly close applications when you are finished with them. Using the back or on the red button won't do that - those leave the app to decide what to do... and some let themselves memory-resident, consumes resources on your BB, slowing down the overall performance. On the contrary, to close an application, tap on and select 'Close' or 'Quit'... which force the application to be closed, freeing resources for your new use it consumed. Some applications will always be running (in general - BBMessenger, browser, homescreen, phone and Messages)... but, you should always close them properly - especially the browser... If we leave on a web page, it will not consume only additional resources, but the power of the battery as well.

    Now, AppMemory is not just for the apps... the real BB operating system is here as well. Depending on the options you have included, which might be things bloating as well.

    Good luck!

  • I have a red circle with a line through it on my need for speed Shift II in my Start menu, the game does not open

    Problem: I have a red circle with a line through it m need for Speed Shift II in my Start menu.   I have never had a red circle with a line pop up on any program in my Start menu, I wanted to know why it happened and how to fix it. The game accepts updates in the form of 'Add packs' of special vehicles in the original site via the EA download manager sports. So I guess that the game is installed correctly, but the game will not open and run at all, not from the start menu, or by clicking the desktop icon. Any help learn more about the red circle with a line about my program and what to do in case it happens again.

    Recently, I installed my Windows 7 Ultimate OS on a SSD which had been replaced because of a total failure of the car. I've updated the operating system with all

    latest updated windows and the updates of my video card, motherboard, HHD and SSD updated; Thus, all the hardware and software are up to date.

    I was going to restore the disk using last good upward from the orginal SSD before he died a month or two ago. So I think this will probably fix my need for speed II problem, but since it's the first time I've ever seen this problem with a program I would like to know how to cope.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated,

    Take care. Skyraider33

    I've never seen what you describe in the Start Menu, either

    You have a new installation of Windows on your new SSD, Yes? If the game is on another HARD disk,
    is that what you did re - install the game after installing the new Windows?
    Otherwise try to reinstall the game and origin. He would register
    entries, both in the previous installation of Windows.

    If this does not help forums EA would probably be a better place to find out if the
    mods are the source of the problem.
