BlackBerry Smartphones BB shows the mobile instead of name telephone number when someone calls

Hello

I am a new BB user, I use BB Pearl 8110. The problem I encounter is most of the time my BB shows the phone number (no name) when someone calls even if I have the number in my address book.

I have 250 + contacts, and most of the entries have multiple numbers (work, home and mobile). What is the reason?

Or do I need to have the configuration settings for my BB show the name instead of number?

Any help would be appreciated.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones how do the mobile network in the program?

    I searched the Forum but do not have the answer.

    Currently, I have 2 mobile for my blackberry 8700 networks say they are A and b.

    Has EDGE and GPRS has B.

    When I reboot BB, most of the time he will select B automatically maybe for some reason any.

    It is tedious to manually switch to the A.

    Is there a way to automatically detect the mobile network if there are A and B then choose?

    Or just simplely choose one no matter if there are B availible?

    I look in the java doc, but it seems there's only Radio and RadioInfo classes related to this issue and none of them can handle this.

    Thank you.

    There is no BlackBerry API that would allow you to do this.  I'm moving this to the general BlackBerry Pocket forum for other suggestions of configuration possible.

  • BlackBerry smartphones return to the mobile version?

    Hey... Is there a way to return to a mobile version of a Web page once you click on the link to access the full version?... If there is, what should I do?

    Well,... not knowing exactly what Web page, you speak of (you don't say), some sites will automatically connect you mobile site if it detects a mobile browser (like this forum) and will give you a choice * sometimes * at the bottom of the page to go to the "full site" If you wish. And when you do, the next time you sign in from a mobile browser, you will still be presented with mobile site.

    Now, having said that, some sites like Twitter page can give your device a cookie to maintain your preferences of the full version. And there is no URL change page to make your choice of it.

    So to answer your question... it depends.

  • BlackBerry smartphone White screen while mobile is activated and the BB Desktop connection

    Hey Mari_43,

    Welcome to the community of BlackBerry Support Forums.

    Thanks for the question.

    Since the white screen is always occurring after a reload of the device software, I suggest you contact your provider network of repair options.

    Let me know if you have any other questions.

    See you soon.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry curve 8520 shows the duration of the call during a call

    I was wondering if someone could help me, since a few days my screen every time I do a call is all blue, he does not see the duration of the call or the name which I'll call or called me while I'm in the call! When someone calls me it shows the name, but I respond as soon as the screen goes blue again? Does anyone know why it is, and how can I fix this problem?

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    Each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes. See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    Best!

  • Application for blackBerry Smartphones, slow down the pace

    Hello

    Good day to all.

    Problem: my application becomes slow... medium cut very slowly.

    I m send and receive "sms" in two separate threads that runs continuously until that exit us the application.

    But my application never stops until the mobile is set to zero. When a message arrives it opens in my application.

    I don't understand why he slow down.

    It may be because I use many threads in an application to perform a task. Or it's because I'm not close connection message... I m using DatagramConnection.

    Then - does anyone know why it happens.

    Please help me solve this issue.

    Thanks and greetings

    The problem is solved

  • BlackBerry Smartphones misidentification of the appellant

    Hi all,

    I have the Blackberry Curve 3 G

    I have a problem when someone call me as his number isn't in my phone book, on the display appears the number of different person from my directory.

    Hello

    I think you can try two things: the soft reboot, and if it does not, the hard reboot. Don't worry, you can not lose data with these two reboots.

    Soft reboot:
    1) struck the following three keys at the same time:
    -Alt
    -Right shift
    -Remove
    (2) wait 2 minutes for the Blackberry to wake up.

    Hard reboot:
    (1) your BlackBerry smart phone is on
    (2) remove the battery and wait a minute
    (3) replace the battery
    (4) wait 5 minutes for the device to wake up.

    Please tell us if it works for you.

  • BlackBerry smartphones how show appointments today on the home screen

    The 8220 is my first BB. I used to have the cingular 3125 smartphone and was one of the most important features for me to have my next appointment show on the home screen. Then would come the point upward (that is to say 15 minutes) I would hit reject and would show the next appointment.

    T Mobile BB technicians tell me that this option is available on all other BB, but they do not know how to activate it on the pearl flip 8220.

    Did somebody to understand yet?

  • BlackBerry Smartphones cannot add the e-mail account on the Bold 9900, the only option in the configuration of e-mail is enterprise activation.

    Security BB9900 husbands suffered for me to use, but I'm unable to set up the e-mail.

    The only option is to set up the email through the activation of the company.

    I have a data plan from my provider Blckberry

    I tried to register it on my carriers BIS activation Web site but got the message that it cannot be done through my camera

    Configuration of e-mail icon only gives the ability to configure one enable a business account

    Have tried blackberry.com/integrate but I get the message "unknown error, please try again" after selecting "launch email configuration".

    Any ideas?

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    With a strong carrier network (for example, not only WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2, each should result in a message from your BB... Please wait just before moving on to the next step):

    1) register HRT

    • KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with wireless network
    • Please wait a 'registration' message reach your Messages application

    2) books of forwarding Service

    • KB02830 Send the directories for the BlackBerry Internet Service
    • Please wait "the Activation' Messages, one per already configured e-mail account, arrive in your Messages. If you have not already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.

    3) restart

    • With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes.
    • See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    I hope that will move things again for you! If this isn't the case, then you should contact your mobile provider for formal support.

    Good luck!

  • PROCESS of RESTARTING of blackBerry Smartphones IS at the point of DEATH

    I tried to reboot my device by removing the battery and reinsert. The restart process gets to about 60% of the way through and then stops. On the screen, the white line, showing the progress extends just to the right of the touchpad with about 1 cm to complete.  I tried to connect to the Fund Manager, but it does not detect the phone in this State. Any ideas. Can it be linked to the level of battery power?  Clearly a software problem. Is it possible to go beyond this crash?

    Hi abucci1990

    Do you have a previous backup of your device, because to recover your device from this current situation you lose data within your device, try the steps to recover your device from this current situation:

    (Credit JSanders)

    There are two methods for recovering for you to try:

    One:

    • Open Blackberry Desktop Software & connect your device with the PC using the USB cable, without inserting the battery.
    • You have three Retry option, update or cancel, and then click Update.
    • Once it is at the stage of the "initialization of pocket" update, then insert the batteries.
    • If this does not work, and you get stuck on the safeguarding of social data feeds, go to the second method below.

    Second:

    • Start your BlackBerry in safe mode.  Article ID: KB17877 how to start a mode BlackBerry smartphone without failurehttp://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB17877
    • Connect to the BlackBerry Desktop Software and allow handheld to connect. If you are prompted to update, cancel the upgrade for later.
    • IF you can not connect or your desktop software does not recognize your device in Mode safe, please follow the instructions here to force detection: Article ID: KB10144 how to force detect the BlackBerry smartphone using the Application Loader
    • Go to device > delete > SELECT DATA > select this option to remove the Social flow and smart card data bases and follow the rest invites you to complete.
    • Now, you can go back and click to update the device through the Desktop Manager, or restart the BlackBerry in normal mode and continue on the upgrade of the air.
  • BlackBerry smartphones following restore, the browser icon is missing...?

    I managed to find a way to restore my new phone, but after the restoration, I don't have an icon of browser...?

    Here are the basic things to try.

    1. Do a battery pull.  This can be sufficient, even if the chances are that you must perform the following steps.
    2. Re-register your device on the BlackBerry network by clicking the Options > Advanced Options > host Routing Table.  Press the BB Menu key, then select Save now.
    3. Return your service books.  If you are unable to access your BIS or BES account, contact your carrier or BES admin for what they send you service directories.
    4. Pull the battery again.

    If it still does not respond, they maybe missed a small step by transferring your data from your old phone to the new plan.  Give them one quick call from another phone, and they'll look at your account to make sure that everything has been set up right.  I know that when I got my replacement, the browser would not show until they overthrew basically one switch (so to speak).  You will know that this is the problem if the status of your connection in the corner top right reads like "1xev" instead of "1XEV".

    I hope this works!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones stuck on the loading screen

    Hoping someone can help me solve this problem.  When I turn on my Blackberry (Bold 9700), you get the screen where it shows the whitebar where the phone does... I get about 3/4 of the way through and it just stalls.  I tried to take out the battery for a few minutes and then put everything back with no luck... screen charge again that about 3/4 of the way.  Any idea why this might happen & how do I fix this?  Thank you!!!

    If your BlackBerry is still under tension turned off with a black screen, follow the instructions below. The only indication of life may be the flashing red indicator light in the upper corner. Nothing seems to wake and Desktop Manager does not recognize that a device is connected.

    (1) make sure that you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/services/desktop/
    (2) on your PC, go to start > run and copy and paste the following line exactly (i.e. with quotation marks):

    'c:\program files\common research in motion\apploader\loader.exe' /nojvm

    (3) the Application Loader Wizard will appear - click on "next".
    (4) in the ' connection: ' drop-down menu, you should see "USB - PIN: UNKNOWN". Click on the button "next".
    (5) you should see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Press Next and finish, and that you are well on your way to get your Blackberry to life. Just unplug and let the process finish completely.

    NOTE: If you do not display the list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead to see the message "the Blackberry Desktop Software has no Blackberry Device Software for the device you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator', then you must download the Blackberry operating system for your support and your device.
    http://www.BlackBerryFAQ.com/index.php/BlackBerry_Operating_System_Downloads
    Just select the appropriate type of carrier and network, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the steps above again and you should be on the right track.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones updated using the BlackBerry Desktop Manager - VERY slow!

    Hello

    Brand-new Blackberry.

    Updated the OS on my 8530 using the Desktop Manager software version 5.0.1 pc and the usb to the phone connector. I started at 11:00 this morning. It's now almost 15:00.

    It always shows 346 528 modules in the device software download part of the process. At this point, it's a failure... But he said not to disconnect your device... or other.  What now? Very disappointing.

    'Now for the future... ". I do NOT recommend the use of desktop upgrade of the Unit Manager, ever. It is simply too buggy and too many things can go wrong happen with which you have no control. »

    I tried the update site as you said but made the mistake of direct download instead of dl to pc and then to the phone as you said. Then... Well, I found the best way yet: I'll take it to the Verizon store and ask them to do every time. I'm a pretty grumpy guy, being a programmer and all except... I just haven't the patience or willingness to spend that kind of time with a phone. I mean - it's a phone. Really?

  • Change location bar suggestions so that it shows the bookmarks instead of the majority has opened

    Hello
    I would like to edit the places bar settings to only show matching bookmarks first instead of the basic story hits. For example, I want fast access to the web site "xxxx". I start to type in "xx" and the first suggestion for the main site - that's why I bookmarked "xxxx.com/forum". With the bookmark next time that I start to type 'xx' it always shows the "xxxx.com/forum" first of all, no matter which I consulted knows main "xxxx.com" more. The show only bookmarks in Options-> privacy option would suit me because I want to view the history of institutions.

    Note: An add-on for this is a perfectly valid option as well
    Thanks in advance!

    In your address bar, enter about: config

    In the search box, type places.frecency.bookmarkVisitBonus

    Double click this entry and change the value (wear to something like 1000) and it should greatly increase the weight given to your Favorites in priority in the suggestions.

    Do the same with places.frecency.unvisitedBookmarkBonus

    You can also change the other weight: just look for places.frecency (and play with it)
