    Yes, it can.  Any BlackBerry OS 7 running phone can be updated OS 7.1 to enable the Mobile Hotspot.  You might not be able to get the update of the OS of your provider, but you can always download it from another carrier.

    I hope that helps you.

    Hi clearebragy1

    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums

    If you talk about the device password then simply change SIM card will not disable the device password a user defined here device. But if we enter too bad password (default is 10) then our device will begin a wipe removing all user data of this unit and must start all over again.

    But if it's BlackBerry ID password, then it will be different! If we go in too bad password for our BlackBerry ID then it locks us, first for 15 minutes and so on. In this situation, must reset the BlackBerry ID password, but it will never be allowed to wipe our BlackBerry, refer to this Article:

  • BlackBerry OS Smartphones Blackberry Bold 9900 software update from version 7.0.0 to version 7.1.0

    HELO everyone

    I tried to upgrade my device software Blackberry Bold 9900 version 7.0.0 to version 7.1.0 but with difficulties. I tried to use the Blackberry Desktop Manager, but there was no version 7.1.0 figure among the available updates. Even when I tried to do it directly through the official website of Blackberry, also Version 7.1.0 was not shown. Finally, I tried to do the update with my phone directly by going to: Options > device > software updates.

    It shows my Version 7.0.0 Bundle 2406 current and available in a version 7.1.0 Bundle 1149. But when I clicked Perform Update to download the new version, he has shown preparing to download but then displays an error message such as "Download cannot continue because your device cannot connect to the update server using the following methods: Wi - Fi.

    During this time, I did not upgrade with a Wi - Fi connection because I have an active blackberry data subscription of 2 GB of my mobile operator.

    Please I need help on how to perform the upgrade from version 7.0.0 to version 7.1.0 with the last packet.

    Thanks to you all I'm waiting for your helpful solution.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    The easiest way is, on a PC (you can not do 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.

    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:

  • Smartphone BlackBerry Bold 9790 - error 603 & constant restart loop.

    Hello

    I just got my phone upgrade a Bold 9790.

    I used COMICS (version 7.1.0.32 - Bundle 33) from my 8520 curve old (V5.0.0.1036) to the new "BOLD". Or at least I tried... Everything went well until downloading the data and I finished with a white screen with an error "App 603" and there is nothing I can do because it constantly goes into a reboot loop.

    I'm looking around and there are a lot of suggestions on the reinstallation of the OS, which I don't mind as it's a new phone anyway. Problem, it's that the BDS does not see the phone now so reloading in this way is a no go. I can't exit the white screen on the "BOLD" either...

    Other solutions?

    Thanks a lot for any help

    Hello Nats Ascot

    Welcome to the community

    If your device is not detected by the BlackBerry Desktop software, so you had to force the detection of your device by using the application loader. Take a peek as this Knowledge Base:

  • BlackBerry Smartphones SLOW Bold 9780 since update

    Since an update was performed on my Bold 9780, it was as slow as molasses and sometimes it does not connect to the internet.

    Before the update, he promptly, always connected without problem and even received my emails until they arrive on my computer.

    I'm with Telus and I have a 1 GB data plan. When I asked them, they said that others have had similar problems and that Blackberry was working on a new update to fix the problem. Anyone heard anything or anyone know how to fix this?

    Thank you

    The slow and the delay could be due to three elements.

    • On your device, Memory Cleaner works in the Security Options? If so, turn it off. It does nothing for you.
    • Close all applications running correctly? See below for more details.
    • What is free your file options > device > status?

    To avoid a freezing response development or late / slow on any BlackBerry, most important practice that you can adopt is to ensure applications CLOSE when you are finished using them.

    If you simply press the Red "end call" key to return to the home screen application is actually open and running in the background. If you do this several times, you will have many apps open and therefore your memory will get used. Lack of memory is the main reason for your BlackBerry slows to a crawl or crashes. If you make a habit of actually use the menu button to close the applications that will at least slow this process memory-clogging. You may still do a battery pull or using the "Quickpull" app from time to time when things get slow.

    To check what applications run on your device in the background, press the Menu key, and then click switching Applications. You will see icons for each application it.

    So now, check your applications running in the background. There are four or five applications that will always run fluently (Messages, Call Logs/phone, BlackBerry Messenger, home screen and the browser; there are other third-party applications such as BeeJive and alerts of BlackBerry that will work also in the bottom that you can not close if you want they work). Ensure that the browser is NOT on an active Web page (open the browser and select the Menu > close). Close all other applications that do not need to be running (the camera or a game you were playing or Google Maps).
