BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry user here

Hi all - I am a new owner of Blackberry (Bold) and love it. But I'm still trying to understand certain things.  I hope someone can answer some of my questions. I promise you that I tried to find it online, I want to be a bother.

(1) what is the difference between downloading an app on the app store, or from my device?

(2) can I remove certain images supplied with the product that I did not intend to use as a home screen? I hate wasting space.

(3) is there a way to move some of my memory from the device to my app memory?

(4) what I need to hit "close" in the menu to close an application or a folder, is not hit the button hang up enough? "

Thank you

Doug

AppWorld is a storefront that is installed on your BB, so there is no difference. AppWorld is designed for you only the applications that are applicable to your device... so you can normally get apps with confidence from AppWorld that they will be compatible. Goes on a site of developers, you will have to do this process yourself.

I read on how to do that somewhere in this forum. But they are normally in a protected area that you can't touch (at least not natively in the device - Add-ons are necessary, I believe). They take little room so I wouldn't really worry in this regard.

Nope. The app memory is fixed and protected. You can not set.

Nope. The best way to ensure fully the closing an app is to press the BBKey, and then select Exit or close. Using the button previous or press the red button it will leave the app to decide how to close - and some will stay resident in memory, running in the background for some reason any. If you really want to close are done with an application, use the BBKey method.

Hope that helps!

I can only see ways to add contacts (with none of the appendices) existing at a speed dial button...

    I don't know what you mean by "appendices".

    You can create a contact phone number will contain a break, then continues the other numbers and then wait for a click from you and then continues again.

    Help, please!

    I am now without whatsapp or the ability to download any application.

    I suggested the wipe in my first reply to you. Glad you're running.

  • Absolutely new Z10 smartphone blackBerry user, a senior, new owner of the BlackBerry Z10, you have questions a little later

    I am a new user of a smartphone and a BlackBerry, a Z10 with Bell, I'll give you the mandatory model number when I have a specific question.  I am 2 days in this, still getting the thing 'gesture' down pat, I'm not too good at this but the representative showed me.  Not a shot on the table-toss-away motion.  There seems to be some screen pages that don't gesticulate to the small size of box at all, as far as I know, some people, when they may be X'd OFF... but they seem to go away once as the main icon screen is in place for a bit...

    I have a message for the company of BlackBerry and it is, please add some info on your User Guides and instructions on the Web pages [this is written on my laptop, I gave the Z10, a rest] for THE BEGINNERS of SMARTPHONE.  They generally speak to previous owners of older models BlackBerry or those who know the fact and not the person like me who has to learn to 'gesture' and tap and "stationary", etc...  It is covered too quickly and too not clear in videos and demos, you have online.

    I fear this could cause frustration for new users... in any case, I'm persistent.

    Please persevere.

    I have to admit that the Z10, great as a phone as it is, is not the beginner phone. Even I, with years of experience of BlackBerry, took some time to adapt to it. Once you get the hang of it, you'll see that it's the best smartphone that you can buy. Until that happens, I hope that you'll hang in there and give him a chance.

    See you soon.

  • Two Smartphones different users blackBerry email showing upward

    Don't think it is specific to this 7100i.  A previous user of BB #1 has been deleted from our Server BES 4.0 a week ago because she replaced by another carrier & using a PDA.  7100i BB #2 of the user different has stopped working.  Deleted the BB #2 user of BES and inscribed on old BB #1.  To old BB #1 BB #2 SIM card. Everything works fine except new user also receives former BB #1 email users as well.

    Wipe the 7100i clean twice, no go.  Added BB #1 user to return in BES and don't delete yet, go.  Waited all night with the two users of BES, no go.  No user BIS introduced.

    Temp have email user # 1 goes into personal folders of emails to go to the # 2 BB user.

    Changed successfully to other BB the same way without any problem

    Any ideas what is the cause?

    OK, we are approaching a solution.

    Can I confirm you have one book [CMIME] service, and you have any service book begins with an e-mail address?

    I think the problem is that these files Blackberry are still attached to the mailbox of the user of your BB #1.

    Here's my suggestion, and I'm pretty confident it will solve your problem.

    Contact your operator to degenerate into RIM or call RIM directly if you have a Tsupport and get a call from file DBCLEAN.exe they should be able to guide you on its use, but here are the instructions.

    If your BB #1 user is no longer on the BES, put the DBCLEAN.exe file in the root of C:. Ensure that all other programs are closed and make sure that the MAPI profile user does not "exchange cache mode. Prompt commune, then go in C:, then type dbclean, enter. This will remove all records of BB attached in the users folder.

    Then remove BB #2 out the BES user and do the same as above, make sure that HH is not connected to the PC. Once completed, wipe the HH and turn it on again.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BlackBerry user tools?

    I just read what wrote J Sanders and my experience has been just the opposite. I'm trading my tours in the storms. My brother loves her and he uses every day. My question is, I down loaded the Blackberry Desktop Manager and have used it on the Tour, and I wonder if I need to down load another Manager or if I can use the one I have?

    Thanks in advance for any response.

    Well, there would be two installation steps. The premiera to DTM and a second install the device operating system package. In Add or remove programs from the PC, there will be something for the device software - mine says "BlackBerry Device Software v4.7.0 for BlackBerry 9530 smartphone"... If I had to begin the process, it's that I uninstall and replace it with the package of device to my new BB OS. If it isn't on your, then the whole device cannot been installed on the PC.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones New User: Questions about the internal clock synchronization, software updated

    Hellko Forum.

    For two weeks, I use a Blackberry Bold 9900 with OS7.1 and I am very satisfied with the device.

    But there are some questions for which I have found no solution:

    (*) Looking back at my old Siemens S10D or SK65, they had an option to synchronize the internal clock with time of the GSM network information. Will there be a similar option in the Bold 9900? What I found was an option in the date and time settings. But when I put "Government aktualisieren" (setting the time) on 'automatic' then time switches to October 5, 2013, 12:20 and nothing happens. Is it possible to connect to an NTP server? If so, where to enter the address?

    (*) On this Web page http://de.blackberry.com/software/smartphones/update/blackberry7-os.html?LID=de:bb:support:update - of... Describes how to upgrade the software of the smartphone "over the air". But I can't find this option. Where the developer has hidden this feature?

    Thanks a lot for the answers in advance

    Best regards

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry instant messaging between blackberry users

    I was wondering if anyone knows if IM text is stored on servers or are they diapear in the air?

    From what I've heard that they stored anywhere, but I would like to know for sure... RIM will not be replied to my question unless I have register and have an account.

    Thanking you in advance!

    Welcome to the forums

    BlackBerry is believed to be extremely safe devices, and that's why many companies prefer them to other smartphones. I can't Imaging RIM store such information on their servers, they essentially act as a conduit for messages from one device to the other. You can be quite certain that they don't keep this information because it would probably violate privacy laws too. The only place IM text is stored on your phone.

    However, if you use a phone from the company, then the company (if it uses blackbery enterprise server) can potentially open information if they want, but not the RIM.

  • Blackberry blackBerry Smartphones new user... not so happy with the storm so far

    Recently, I upgraded my LG Storm for the Blackberry Storm, and he received the day after Christmas.  I spent all night on the phone with Verizon customer service trying only why my phone keeps restarting and stopping himself.  This was even after I download Blackberry Desktop and put Manager upgraded to the new software.  Verizon's CS could not understand why this has happened and shipped me another one which is schduled to arrive not later than Tuesday.  Im a bit annoyed because I originally for the curve but I knew that the curve had been out for a while and I wanted to not Verizon to go out with the curve of new and improved (8900) because I would not like that... lol... and I got the storm to an as much (149.00) I could not beat this price.  When the phone has not been rebooted itself with that I managed to play it a little bit and it is really easy to use outside the switching of the letters and numbers when text mode n landscape.  Bus, aside from that, the email and myspace for mobile installation was child's play.  I hope the next I get works or well I will return it for the curve.  If anyone has heard or have lived this restart/stop function let me know...

    sincerely for the time being not happy with user of storm

    You do not have to have an account or access to the BIS server - but if you do, you can do things like send your service books or the program installation/change on your BB email accounts without having to call your service provider (i.e. Verizon).  Account e-mail setup/changes can be done form the device but I don't know a way to return the service form books the unit itself - I think that you are only option are access via the BIS site I've provided or call the technical support of your provider.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones current users connection configure Email

    Just got a new Blackberry Curve 3 G today through Sprint.  Sprint transferred my contacts - very well.

    When I went to set up my email, it says: "existing users - if you want to access your e-mail settings or you have changed your device, connection."

    I don't know what the username and password is that I never put in place on this phone before.

    Sprint tells me that it is a matter of Blackberry.

    How can I get my user name and reset my password, or

    Reset my username and password?

    How can I configure the new BIS account?

    If you have an existing account to BlackBerry, then you are an existing user

    You have a login and a password for this account. If you don't have that, call Sprint customer service and tell them that you need to reset this account and have this new device THAT PIN/IMEI associated with the account.

    If nothing else, Sprint must delete the old folders BIS account and add the new, voila, a new account.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry user just a few Questions

    First of all, I have the Curve 8330 and it is a totally new gadget for me that I must have lived in the dark ages!

    In any case what exactly is Facebook?

    Also, I was wondering if the "BOLD" would be off I'm in my test with the curve of 30 days and love it except letter keys, they are really small, I do not like for them. The keyboard on the 8830 works well ut there no camera and video capabilities like curve 8330.

    My phone is with Alltel and of course, everyone knows that Alltel was bought by Verizon so I'm not sure what this means to me, but I would really like the keyboard on the "BOLD", it seems that the keys are larger.

    Thanks in advance for your help.
