• BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Curve 9320: partial keyboard lock

  I got this Blackberry Curve to round a few months and now the right to half of the keyboard (outside the p / @ key) is now locked or does not.  The affected keys are y u i o, h j k l del, b m s n and their associated symbols ALT.  I inadvertently it locked?  I tried the unlock number shortcut, but it made no difference.  Help! Thank you.

  Most of the manufacturers do not repair the damage of the waters under warranty and you will charge for repair. It may be useful to check your home insurance as a covering of this kind of damage on a phone.

  My new Blackberry Curve completely locked up!  It displays a gray screen with a hourglass and every few minutes showing the home screen with a progress bar that says "security audit software" then goes black, as is turn OFF... then come back to the hourglass.  I tried to turn it off with no luck.  I removed the battery, but it is up to the hourglass when I reinsert.  Is there another way to reset it?  I've had less than a week!  Thank you!

  Personally, I would get a new phone. While this could be remedied by reloading the operating system, it could also be a sign of a serious defect that may affect your phone permanently. In my opinion, I wouldn't pay for a device that has to be repaired

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  BBs are very secure - only the password created by the user can unlock the BB. There is no password 'master' or 'ignore' to do so... only the password created by the user can do.

  But, you can maybe in luck still... refer:

  • KB05099 Steps to take before selling or after the purchase of a used BlackBerry smartphone

  No not the password the maximum time will initiate a WIPE on the device, which is part of these important instructions. But other measures in these instructions are also important to... by the seller and the buyer. Not well fill ALL risks instructions making the BB not fully usable by the buyer (you).

  Good luck!

• Blackberry Curve 8320 unlocked blackBerry smartphones

  Hello

  I have not actually bought my Blackberry yet, but I'm looking into it right now. I want to buy a unlocked Blackberry Curve 8320 which was previously on AT & T or T-mobile (I'm a couple more different). Anyway, I wanted to buy a Blackberry and place it on a data plan with Rogers Canada. I'm doing this because I want to be able to use BBM, so I think I need a data plan.

  I buy the Blackberry separately because I want to be able to use overseas when I use another GSM SIM card for example. I know doing it on contract is cheaper, but I don't want to do that because I will be locked on a 3 year contract and I won't be at the Canada for 3 years.

  I just want to know if the Rogers data network will work with a Blackberry unlocked as I described above. I asked Rogers customer service and they said that they cannot confirm that the Rogers data network will be to 'connect' with the unlocked Blackberry because it once belonged to another provider and I should buy a Blackberry from Rogers. I don't know if they just said that if I would buy the Blackberry from Rogers rather than elsewhere. I know the unlocked Blackberry should work fine with a regular for calls and SMS GSM SIM card and all that but I want to know specifically about BBM - ing.

  Sorry, my question is so long. Thanks a lot for your help!

  While Canadian companies may be different from their American counterarts I do not that the differences are only significant to materially affect my response.

  When you buy a 'new' locked onto a support device will be offered the device at a price at a price significantly lower than the retail price recommended for her.  That's what prescribed contractual lock in as they recover for the duration of the contract, the difference between what you pay and the cost.  They're subsidizing the price in order to collect a healthy monthly fees for access.

  All U.S. carriers require a data plan for smartphones in addition to any general "plans" for just minutes and text packages etc.  I guess that Canadian businesses require the same.

  In order to use BBM you need a dataplan carriers which is what allows your device use the features of the BIS (Blackberry Internet service) requiring Blackberry data push, e-mail, all what is "data".

  This is a new in the box device purchased by your friends at Rogers.  They sold you a Blackberry and they dance as they listen to the registry will chaching.  This is music to their ears.  This is an item being sold and it is "locked" to Rogers.  Of course, for each month of your servitude under contract happen to dance again once the Registry continues to provide them with more chaching.

  You bought a camera from them, you can use it at this stage only with them.  They will be as you might or might not be aware subject to various and assorted penalties if you tire of their service or their absence and take your business elsewhere, or try.  Costs of early termination can easily exceed your initial cost plus for a premium, in a credit institution, violating laws governing wear.

  It's what keeps dissatisfied customers even with the carriers that are less satisfactory.  It is just too expensive to leave while allowing some, but not all carriers for you 'sell' the balance of your contract to another.  If Rogers of permits that are unknown to me.

  If you buy an "unlocked" device it is expected of the band is compatible with Rogers (GSM/CDMA as the case may be) perfectly capable to be activated on their network.

  Their after-sales service is to use a euphemism, blowing smoke.  They know perfectly well that a device unlocked regardless of its origin.  They won't make you a device for which they do not receive rewarding chaching first and make run on their network.  Since you did not pay a subsidized price for the device that you are not obliged to a three-year plan or some length Rogers requires for locked for new devices.

  While they play stupid indeed hoping you will buy them and locked himself in a service contract.  It's guaranteed money for thirty-six months.  It's a lot of money.

  Assuming you get to admit only a 8320 unlocked (GSM) will play well with their network that you can buy a phone, monthly data on the plan without being locked in a period of time.

  You will absolutely need the dataplan however, at least the minimum plan they offer will prevent access to the services that make it a Blackberry.

  Of major importance for you in as long as purchaser of a used instrument is the only one not is indeed "unlocked" but the PIN was released by the former owner and the access to its carrier, T-Mobile or AT & T.  Every Blackberry is assigned a unique PIN that lives with her forever.  For example, if I want to sell my unlocked Blackberry Storm I will have to make arrangements for the release of the Verizon PIN so that a subsequent purchaser can activate the storm on Verizon (my service provider) or such that it is unlocked any service provider, as it really is a universal device capable of activation on a CDMA/GSM/UMTS network or Global.

  I would like to buy a used if and only if it is verifiable that the PIN was released by the previous owner/carrier.  With the instrument in hand, it can be checked on the device or not it is unlocked.  The output of the SPINDLE must be verified by the previous carrier and I'm too cynical, but I wouldn't take the word of the seller unless it was a very trustworthy family member and even then, I would like to politely ask for verification.

  Rogers wants money on your part.  They want the money upfront to sell you a Blackberry and they want the contract guaranteed money for the long term for the months down the line.  For Rogers, it's win/win.

  You can, even if it's an expensive to buy a new device of Rogers at the MSRP and not you will not lock in a three-year contract.  The majority of carriers who does not advertise that the difference is more than lost long-term do not lock you in their.

  I hope this helps.  If I appear cynical, it's because I am.  Carriers are there to increase their profits and integrity is lost in the maze.

  But if the behavior continues mode without failure, you may need to consider more drastic measures - WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload and the process of reloading OS 'skeleton '.

  Hello tintintin23,

  Welcome to the Forums of the BlackBerry Support

  While our BlackBerry devices can feel hot tell a long browsing session, play games, download countinous or during loading or if the applications are running in the background. If we hold the Menu for a few seconds, it will open 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. run in the background.

  Also always try to properly close the Applications - avoid using the end key 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. Don't let your browser open when not in use. If programs are running in the background, it will also allow overheating and also to quick battery drainage. Please take a look at these Article I hopeit will help you a lot to overcome your problems:

  Check and see if any application is responsible for the problem.

  Question of observation on our BlackBerry battery cover them charge, are lithium-ion battery it won't take too long to load, it can reach a full charge (100%) within 2 hours. If your camera takes too long while you have connected to a wall outlet has a good and constant power. Or you can visit your service provider to check if this is a hardware failure.

• BlackBerry smartphone BlackBerry Curve 8520 cannot connect to PC

  Hi, I recently bought a BlackBerry Curve 8520 Smartphone. I want to transfer music from my computer to the BlackBerry files. I have already installed the BlackBerry Desktop Manager. But even after I connect the BlackBerry to the USB port of my PC, when I click on "Media Manager" in the Desktop Manager, a message appears saying: "Media Manager is only supported using a USB connection, to run the Media Manager, please connect your device to your computer via a USB cable.

  1. make sure that you are connected to a main REAR usb port, not a USB port on the front or a usb hub.

  2. one. Go to Options > Media Card
  (some themes or BlackBerrys can call this ' settings > Media Card ")

  b. check the following parameters (if they are that way, then changes according to the following:)

  • Media card support: on

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  Based on your description, I would deduct low or weak signal from your mobile service provider. Digital devices to modulate their energy consumption depending on the strength of the signal they receive from the Tower of the carrier. Low quality/signal strength, higher battery drain. For good check, you need to contact your mobile service provider, because it is the network, which is the cause. It is possible to have a few problems in the areas that you are in.

  You might also try to start in Safe Mode, to remove all applications 3rd automatic launch party (even if you do not see them in the AppSwitcher Ribbon, they can run):
