BlackBerry smartphones can not make a call from the phonebook

Hi guys! Can someone help me? BB Storm 9530, when you type the number to call, everything is ok, but when you try to call the same person in the phone book, it is impossible. What can I do?

Thank you!

It could be one of the four solutions... Try these:
1. make sure that you set your own code to the Dialer phone screen > Options > smart dialing.
Set your country Code in this format: "+ xx" where xx = country code. Some countries have two or three-digit country Codes. Do not place not the '+' in the entrance of your contact.
* In the United States, the value of this country as '+ 1' Code and place your code in the appropriate box (this normally the default setting in a new BB).

2. in the same place, change the length of National number for the number of digits corresponding to your country (since some countries have less than 10 as that set by default in the BB). Check out the total numbers, less country code. Do not place not the '+' in the entrance of your contact.
* For example, some countries have a total number to 8 (more than 3 for the country code). You must enter '8 '.

3. you probably have "Content Protection" located on your address book.
OS5 devices: look at the Options > Security > General settings. Scroll down to the content Protection > include addresses = no
OS6 devices: Home screen > Options > Security > encryption > uncheck encrypt.

4. go to Options on your device > Security Options > encryption > include contacts the value 'No '.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not make a call, but can receive calls

    Hello! I BBCurve9380 and somehow it just stopped making the calls, but I can still receive. I don't know if it's on the changed settings but on what I read in other forums, it's on the it policy. I checked mine and it says BBFS1 [GTALKAP1] and WLM 2.1 [WLMAP01]. I've updated all my apps and my computer can read my phone just fine. When I try to make a call, it automatically disconnects. Any help would be appreciated.

    In fact, you have a lot more work to do, in light of your acquisition method. Reference:

    However, later, when you restore, DO NOT do a full restore. On the contrary, do only a selective restore of only those databases that you absolutely need (e.g., contacts, calendar, messages) and specifically avoid restore databases that have nothing to do with HIM, political, business or other similar things. If you restore those, you'll just be right back where you are now, as a full restore will conscientiously COMPUTER policy again on your device.

    Note Please that I really have no idea if doing this will restore your ability to make calls... 100% of the information I have comes from what you have posted here. I'm guessing that the policy could be the cause of your problems, but I can't know that. No matter, since there is an IT strategy on board and you are not on BES, then you definitely want to get that deleted. But regarding if that will restore your ability to make calls, I have no way to predict the future...

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not make or receive calls or text messages

    I have a desk that also my BB services (e-mail and internet) work and device to register. But I can't make or receive a phone call or send and receive text messages. Try calling a number any (including the short customer service number) I get only the message on the screen saying "Call Failed". I'm with O2 with BB unlimited but also tried other SIM cards or reset to the default setting but still the same.

    Could someone help?

    Hello

    It really seems to be the same problem I had. The reason why my phone did not work (calls and sending messages) were that the phone has been updated with the index. Looking to solve the problem, I visited O2 and T-Mobile (which was the original support) and people and T-Mobile was very helpful and kindly spent some time to solve my problem. At least it confirmed what I already knew. Because the person who took this phone as a contract obviously has not paid the IMEI of my phone bill has been blacklisted and I couldn't use it in England (he works abroad). I could use only internet, emails etc. exactly as you can.

    These people in T-Mobile store after talking to someone in their service center told me that the only way to remove it from the blacklist must provide the original proof of purchase. I called customer service and they confirmed this as well. So if you have the same problem that you need to talk to the person you bought the phone and ask the original proof of purchase of the phone company. At least, it works with T-Mobile and should then with Vodafone as well.

    In my case, I went back to the phone to the Ebayer. As he was shopping, it had no original proof of purchase. It wasn't easy and I had to remind him of Ebay and Paypal political and it took some time but finally he refunded my money and I bought it.

    There is another way how to remove IMEI to list black, but not quite sure how legal, is that you will find someone who can do that in England. You can. Write on my email if you want more info and don't know what I mean.

    Hope this information has helped and you will sort your problem.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not answer incoming calls

    I "missed" between 20 and 25 incoming calls within the last two days. Whenever I get a call in an application, portrait/landscape, laying on my desk, sittin in the home, in the menu screen, or in my pocket, I begin to see the incoming call, hear the ring tone and press the green button. (I tried using the tactile response option as well) and then the clock that spinning hourglass or anything like that for the following 30ish seconds and shows my storm is completely insensitive. I tried to play with almost all the parameters relating to appeals, sounds and contacts, and I left the phone to die on its own of the lack of resources, pulled the battery and it turned off manually. can someone help me with this please?

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not log in to validate the e-mail via "e-mail setup".

    Google has just turned off sync to google calendar for blackberry. So I did a gmail account so I can use "BIS calendar wireless sync" on gmail. However whenever I go into the configuration of email on my bb, it just times out. I click the icon and get about a second or 2 ticking clock and then nothing. This happened before when I set up my email addresses (and has been fixed by using the email my carrier's bis email account configuration, Telstra in Australia). It's just a question now, like gmail, calendar synchronization requires that I have post my bb email address in order to get the calendar wireless sync. have done a lot of battery grips. Since hours today on the phone with my ISP and have flashed the phone. have downgraded to version 6, 905 and a full wipe info. This did not help. I guess the problem is with the carrier, but they tried to 'everything' for this problem, as it has (as I said) is a problem in the past. and still the same thing. I downloaded the service books and then deleted and then downloaded them once again, having re-entered on the network a lot of times, the provider has reset my account, multiplied by neumerous. I tried to go to mobile.blackberry.com and this not validate my email "on the phone" and get my calendar to work. I would upgrade the 9900 things but 2, there are a lot of people complaining about reception problems and there's os 10 just around the corner. I looked online and not found a serious answer to fix my agenda. looking for a work around or correct for my google calendar work?
    .

    OK I found it.

    I saw that some ppl posted the same thing. I don't know if it will work for everyone, but that's what I did.

    do not think that this part of the question, but I'll put it and others can comment on. After downloading the last Director of office of telstra (my carrier) because the previous soft ware has been downloaded from the website of vodafone.

    then I went to the list of applications on the Office Manager and found that there are 2 "Messaging Installer" programs, they have different versions. I have deleted 1 and nothing has changed. I deleted the 2nd, and nothing has changed. then wen I loked at applications he gave me the opportunity to reinstall only 1 of these e-mail of the installation files. I did and now I have my schedule back.

    I hope this helps others to please let me know if you want more info.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Can not add more contacts to the address book

    Hello

    I have a blackberry curve 8520.

    for the momment I 288 contacts but I can not add more. I go to the menu, address book, new contact, the window give me options, I add the information (name, phone, e-mail, etc.) and when I want to save the contact he does not save

    I tried to restart the removing the battery for a minute and reboot, but always with the same problem.

    Also, I figured out that when synchronize my bb with Desktop Manager, the address book is not sync that it says (address book not installed) and this is why I can't drag contacts to reinstall the info because I don't have to return to the top of the address book

    Please I need help with this question

    Thank you

    While there is no limit on how many contacts you can have on your device, there is a soft limit that you can have as many times as the memory of your device can handle. Check the available memory to see if you have any remaining space. If this isn't the case, then consider cleaning out / uninstallation of some things that you don't need to increase the memory available to more contacts.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not send new text of the messages folder

    I have a Bold 9650.  I have, unfortunately, updated for the new OS and now I am unable to send texts from the news of my Messages folder.  I can send an email and response to text, but when I open the menu and click on 'Another new message' there is nothing there.  It's a dead link.  I have to go in my contacts folder, compose and send text, then close to everything in my Contacts folder.  Is this a bug or something put in place bad?

    This new OS is horrible.  He got all these bells and whistles, with none of the previous operating system usability.

    Don't give up quite yet, Stacie.

    OS 6 is a solid operating system with many advantages over the OS 5.  If you have recently upgraded to it, your phone can not be used to it and she can act a little.  This is normal and with a few tweaks here and there, we can get it just how you want.

    A battery pull will probably solve this problem.  Remove the battery while your phone is on, then replace it.  Return to your Messages folder and see if the option appears.

    If Yes... Yay!  If not... let know us and we will try something else.

    Interesting... it must synchronize all... hmmm... Well, if your only interest is a paper copy, then an export might be too simple. The Desktop software can export to a CSV file, which you could then return to Excel and do what you please. Unfortunately, the export feature has been removed in more recent versions of Desktop software (don't ask... it's a HUGE bru-ha-ha!), and you must use an older version (6.x or lower, I recall) to do:
