BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry "BOLD" w / ATT

I am considering buying the "BOLD" and my carrier is ATT. I currently have the Pearl, and I just had a few questions about the "BOLD".

  1. It is necessary that you buy a package of data with same ATT use and opperate the phone?
  2. On the ATT site, under the overview of the phone, it says that you are able to insert images, video and sound in a text message. This means an SMS message, which requires no data plan? An MMS message, which I know requires a data plan to send or?

It would be a great help if someone could expand their knowledge with me.

Thank you!

1 No. the voice and SMS will be works very well, just like contacts, etc.. He has only to the same requirements as your bead.

2 referring to an MMS message, on ATT requiring data plan.

  • 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:

  • Smartphones from blackBerry Bold 9900 set up the e-mail icon does not not :(

    I had to go back to Blackberry Bold 9900 for awhile my Q10 screen is cracked and I sent it to be repaired. I put the new sim card in and try to set up the e-mail account he showed me the mail of size and I knew that something is wrong. I called my network provider and they have implemented my Blackberry data plan and I signed up with blackberry network. I turned my phone market and bb next to the network icon icon appeared which is good. But when I go to set up an email account and click the "email accounts" nothings happens. called my network, they do not know how to help me...

    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) Remove and return Service books (pre-BB10 only devices)

    • KB05000 Remove the maintenance book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account in the BlackBerry smartphone
    • If you do not have access CMIME, continue deleting
    • 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

    • Pre-BB10 ONLY devices. 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.
    • Peripheral BB10. Hold the top button until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the unit to be completely stopped (for example, nothing appears on the screen, no lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red light. Wait through the entire boot process. IF this fails, you can try the method of battery-pull above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.
    • 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 can try this link from your BB browser:

    Otherwise, you should contact your mobile provider for official support... but this time do not let you fob off the coast. You pay for your services, making them responsible for your formal support service, including if necessary climbing to BlackBerry-related.

    Good luck!

  • Reader PDF No. Smartphones blackBerry in BlackBerry Bold 9780

    Hello

    I use BlackBerry Bold 9780 and have Documents to Go, leaves to Go and slides to Go to view Word, Excel, and Powerpoint documents respectively. I saw in the new BlackBerry Curve 9220 there is a built-in app named 'Documents to Go '. By which anyone can view the lyrics, Excel and Powerpoint documents with PDF files for free. But I can't able to view PDF files in my Bold 9780 which is more cumbersome and expensive smartphone than the curve 9220.
    That's why I want to know where can I get an app 'Documents to Go' compact for free and which is also a PDF reader.

    Please see my above correction... in my haste, I mistyped the step number for the download of dig through portal. Apology.

    FYI - in the described situation so far, unlocked or not is irrelevant. Any bundle of BONES of carriers can be used on any model BB even number on any other carrier (via the removal of the SELLER. XML files). The BB is unlocked or not has no bearing on this factor. The sole purpose of unlocking is to actually use the BB on a different medium that those for which the BB was built. But even a locked BB may use a different carriers OS package.

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Bold 9930 update failed and the software does not load

    I have a Blackberry Bold 9930 and yesterdasy I received a msg saying to upgrade to 7.x software Blackberry. I followed the instructions (takes too long like 2 hours to download) and then. Big mistake because it cooked my phone. It seems that when you upgrade, the upgrade process goes thru, but stops after the time zone to restore the process and reports an error 602 with a reset button to reset your database. The reset button does not work and I restarted the phone to restore the db. At the moment that it restarts, launched the process, and even once, it failed after the msg indicating time zones (100% and overall restoration treatment 7%). Zones roughly completed, but then I got a msg saying I wandered 602 belive. On all courses was about 5 to 10 percent. Now my phone is undesirable because it does not restart. Verizon says they have a large number of phones across the country, but BlackBerry says it's a matter of Verizon...  Someone at - he already heard of this I am now without such a 4 days while I get a replacement Friday because of the holiday...  I am not very happy as another question, I found - during the upgrade process it used the cells instead of my wirelss home network to download the software and it really took about 2 to 3 hours, then another hour before it failed during the upgrade process. So about. 3 to 4 hours to play with an upgrade yesterday.

    Thank you

    Hello merlin02131

    Welcome to the Forums of the BlackBerry Support

    Sorry to hear about the problem you are experiencing during the update!

    But you can still use Desktop Software for the update process, personally, I prefer never to do an Over the Air update. I think that something has gone wrong with the update process and thus you encounter this error 602.

    You have a backup of your device, or using BlackBerry protect for the backup?

    If you wish you can try several method to recover your device of this error, all you need is a PC and an Internet connection active. But attention, this method deletes the data user in this device. This is the Knowledge Base to follow:

  • BlackBerry smartphone Blackberry Bold 9900 guard restart every 2 minutes

    Hello

    Here's my problem: today, after unplugging my blackberry to the computer, it has begun to close every minute (I mean, when it restarts, a minute or two after it restarts) and he did for hours!

    The problem is that I can't even try to update the operating system or restore the original configuration that I don't have enough time before his stop!

    I tried to use it without the SIM card, has not changed anything.

    My biggest concern is that I can't do anything because I can't keep it on more than a few minutes!

    Someone has already experienced the same problem? Is there a way to fix this that refer to society (hoping that the warranty has not expired...)?

    Info on the device

    Your operator: SFR (French)

    Model information and the version of the OS: Blackberry Bold 9900

    Apps and free space

    Nothing to do with the battery, he pulled out several times has not changed anything.

    Not many applications except the classic ones (facebook, etc...) and you have not installed a new for several months.

    Unable to get much information because it maintains close and restart...

    The only thing I was doing before the problem occurred he was charging on the computer (not even synchronize). I unplugged it as I always do and it started to go crazy.

    Thank you very much in advance for your help.

    SIM of the France.

    Sometimes things just go wobbly... Very dear, I hope that you already have a good backup of all, for what you describe, you are unlikely to be able to take one that you continue to try to recover from this situation. If your BB is very new, so you may want to just take to formal support and do not try to recover it now... After all, it might actually be a hardware problem (there is no way, at an internet distance really diagnose... perhaps we can 'deduct' material being likely, but we can't diagnose 100%).

    If you want to proceed, then please follow these steps (PC, not MAC):

    1) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,

    (2) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

    (3) download and install on your computer, the BB OS package you want for your BB:

    (4) If this OS package comes from one carrier other carrier for which your BB was built, then remove, on your PC, all copies of the SELLER. 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:

    Hi everyone, I need help! I bought the blackberry bold 9900, 3 weeks ago and it was super fast, but now it's always fast but most of the time is not responding, so I have to pull the battery, I did this about 5 times for three days and the media player most of the time "processor multimedia device answer/busy is stopped." the strange thing is that all applications are closed, I don't know why its not responding, everytime I take a lot of pictures or videos. How could a smartphone as it stop responding even if it has a 1.2 GHZ, and 768 MB ram processor which is more than enough for a smartphone like this. Storage of applications: I 95.9 MB of free space and the system uses 280.1 MB which is almost half of the storage for applications. Memory: the system currently uses 433,7 MB which is also half of the memory capacity. P.S. I pulled the battery about 15 minutes ago, I use an external microsd sandisk card 8 GB class 4, to save all my files into it (songs, pictures, videos, pdf, word, etc. documents) it is 1.8 GB apart the 7.8 GB. The built in storage media's 6.0 GB and it has 5.8 GB free of it. Should not it works faster because I have a lot of free space on the bed in the storage media. There is a problem with the microsd card should I use another class for example 10. Or is it a problem with the new software? I need help please, im starting to regret buying this phone, even if I like it. Thankss

  • BlackBerry Smartphones just bought a Blackberry "BOLD" in Thailand to be used in the Philippines

    Hi all

    I recently bought a new 'fat' in Thailand.  It cost me about 600 U.S. Dollars and this is unlocked.  I used my SIM from the Philippines who wandered in time and was able to send a text message, so I guess it works OK.  I have a few questions, however.

    The Unit came with a Vodafone logo, and the manual is in German.  There is also a flash start page that says Vodaphone.  I guess I can download a manual on the Blackberry site.  Anyone have a quick link to such a download?

    Second, the software supplied with the unit disk is defective.  I must have damaged it because it has a scratch and will not work.  Cannot read the files on the disk.  I noticed a version 4.7 with support tools available for download on the site Web of Blackberry.  What is the equivalent of what's on the disc that came with the phone?
