BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Curve... switching on Bluetooth

Hi all... y at - it a shortcut to turn on Bluetooth [only for when I'm driving] without going into the 'options' > 'bluetooth' and could hurt if I left Bluetooth enabled all the time?

see you soon

I set my left convenience key or the key management connections.

In this way, it's just a click to access:

1. in the terminal options, click screen/keyboard

2. change the left (or right) side convenience key opens field

3. Select manage connections

4. press the Menu key

5. click on Save

I only do this for the same reason, when I'm in the car.

As for letting the bluetooth on permanently. There is not bad except the battery will drain faster. as the phone will send consistent signals to check that the apparatus is nearby.

I hope this helps.

  • Edge of b/w for the Switch from blackBerry Smartphones and MOBILE on Blackberry Curve 9380

    Hey, a few days back I bought Blackberry Curve 9380. Basically, I am new to the world of Blackberry.

    Usually when I'm at home, I prefer to use GSM only coz I have Wi - Fi. But when I swtich off the coast of data usage, connect to Wi - Fi, the browser and other internet applications say they are unable to internet.

    Also guide me how to change b/w GSM & edge network...

    Firstly your need BIS - Blackberry Internet Serives from Vodafone subscription, this is the unique feature that separates other Blackberry devices.

    Browser, Facebook, twitter and other applications require the BIS subscription. Only the appworld will work in Wi - Fi mode.

    You can change the settings of the browser for Hotspot to work over wifi, but I think the 7 OS will automatically detect it.

    If you have BIS subscription 3G is free.

    It will take several attempts to get the combination of keys ESC (press/release/hold) OK, so be patient. When properly in Safe Mode, see what happens.

    If the behavior continues, then well... think what happened just before this behavior started? A new application? An update? A theme? Something else? Think carefully that the slightest change can be causal... and try to undo all that was.

    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 '.

  • Heating of the smartphone BlackBerry Curve blackBerry

    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:

    Or on your home screen to go to Options > device > application management. Move your trackpad right or left it shows CPU Usuages, it will at least give you an idea what application is the use of your resources.

    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.

    When I check my BlackBerry, there are the popup on the screen:

    "The source of load connected to your Blackberry device cannot charge your battery. Some USB hubs may not supply enough power. Plug the hub into a socket (if available), then reconnect your BlackBerry device. Connection to another (different computer, USB hub or USB power) USB port check that the USB cable is properly connected to your BlackBerry device and a USB port, check that your computer is not in sleep mode, standby mode or hibernation. Check that BlackBerry USB drivers installed on your computer. »

    I can check all of the above, except for the drivers USB BlackBerry. Can someone tell me where I can download it? Moreover, I did not have a SIM card, I do not know if that plays a role in the present.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello and welcome to the Forums of Support BlackBerry.com.

    Have a SIM won't matter for what you are wanting to do.

    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
    • Mass storage Mode support: on
    • Auto enable mass storage: Yes

    c. save the settings and exit

  • Smartphones from blackBerry Curve 8520 - Blackberry MAPS - how/where can I configure the GPS signal?

    I took a brief look at the questions on the CARDS, but none of these go to the ART GPS end does not. (I'm sure it's somewhere in the support forums, but I found nto).

    I have the icon of the WAP on my Blackberry Curve 8520. But when I click it I don't see is a grid nd no card. I checked Options Options/Advanced/cards and it is said by default Blackberry MAPS Service - EU. I also checked the place settings and under GPS Data Source it comes up with a list of all my contacts id bluetooth I suspect this is where it goes wrong, but I can't be sure.

    How can I put the correct GPS data source. How/where can I set this up please. ???

    Thank you

    JJ

    Any other ideas as to why the Blackberry connects sometimes to devices and sometimes does not. I saw him sign for a brief moment especially for my GPS dongle. Then fell to new. The signal on the dongle seems it continues to blink.

    When I take my BB in my car it instantly takes the car blue tooth

    Don't understand why he doesn't connect properly on my GPS unit now.

    My blackberry curve 9220 gets really hot and begins to drain the battery.

    the entire battery life is dained out in less than 3 hours

    I try to freshen it, but it does not really.

    and there is no runnig requests in the back except the example by default-, phone, browser, bbm, and messages.

    and the strange thing is that when I turn off the mobile network of the battery keeps draining

    can someone please help I really need my email, bbm and whatsapp return

    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):

  • Smartphones blackBerry how to solve this problem "Eception exception: dssma: state (5) invalid: 25 in blackberry curve 8520?"

    HELLO, I have the blackberry curve 8520. I got error on my phone. the error is ' Eception exception: DSSMA: state (5) not valid: 25. I am unable to open my Inbox messages and unable to view the phone's call history. the phone displays the same message over and over again "Eception exceptionMASA: state (5) invalid: 25'." Please help me how to solve? I am unable to read text messages on my phone. Please help me.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    There is virtually no diagnosis of those - they are the equivalent of random errors in Windows for which trace the root cause is futile. Basically, here's the last out in the programming code - some event occurred for which there is no event handler in the code. The patch is an update of the code that handles the event... but, again, what is the event is almost impossible. So, there are a few things to try:

    Sometimes, the code simply is damaged and needs to be updated - just like a reboot:

    • 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.

    If it doesn't boot properly, then you need to try Safe Mode:

    • KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in safe mode

    There may be a code updated to the value of the carrier - check out them through this Portal:

    The toughest possible causes are a bad application behave. To find it, there are two options. Is to see if you can read the log file:

    Go to the home screen. Hold down the "alt" key and type "lglg". (You won't see anything as you type). This will bring up the log file. Scroll down (probably a lot of pages) until you see a line that says "eception execption. Click on this line. The application name will be in the info. Alternative methods to implement the newspapers are in this KB:

    • KB05349 How to activate, view, and extract the the event logs on a BlackBerry smartphone

    The other method is to remove the apps one at a time, wait a while between the two (I usually recommend a week), until the problem stops... revealing the offending application. Yet another method is to recharge the BB OS itself, leaving little time between the addition of other applications on the BB in order to be able to determine exactly what is the cause.

    Good luck and let us know!
