BlackBerry smartphones help me restore my list of Contact BBM BB 8520 (curve 2)

Hi, just the recent I sync my Blackberry to my contact yahoomail account, since then have not seen my list of Contact of BB; its asking me to restore it through 3 options: pls, guide me now I need your leader perfect & sincere, I don't want to lose these contacts. The options are
1: restore by using the e-mail
2: restore using a backup of the device file
3: restore by using a backup file of media card
But pls I did nothing as back up front, pls, what can I do? I need your quick practical tips. Thank you very much

What is your list of contacts for BBM?  If you have registered your email with BBM on a prior device, then using your address e-mail should bring back your contacts.  If you made a backup on your press card or device of BBM, then you can use this method.  If this isn't the case, then you must restore from a previous backup made with the Software Desktop BBM.  If you don't have those, then you can be out of luck.

The latest versions of BBM surveys use BBID to backup contacts and it is all automatic.  Make sure that the device has the latest version of installed BBM.

    Hope someone can help me - I'm sure that the solution is simple but I just can't understand it.  When I click on my address book icon it shows * no address * where previously it displays my entire address list.  I know they are always there because if I go to address book options, it tells me I have 365 entries.  So, where are they?

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    You might have a filter applied to your list of contacts for which there is no entry. Click on the BBKey and select filter, make sure nothing is checked.

    1. how to restore the Mail app?

    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

    • 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

    • 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-~ 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.

    I hope that will move things again for you! If this isn't the case, then you should contact your mobile provider for formal support.

    N ° of BB devices lack a complete email client on them. Instead, they depend on the BIS service to provide messaging functionality. BIS is active when you have also listed Internet/personal email where you currently see only Enterprise. All services of BIS, are sent to the device via data carrier network... contact them are therefore the right approach to discover why their network is no longer to deliver to you the services that you pay for.

  • BlackBerry smartphones HELP! -Application error 606

    I'm relatively new to the whole community of smartphone, and I fear I actually broke my Blackberry!

    I noticed that e softwareupdated was available for my Blackberry, so I chose to download it. The problem is my phone kept freezing in the process, and I was getting a little impatient. Finally, my phone told me that there was not enough memory, so I should delete some applications to make room. So I selected a few to remove, and my phone froze AGAIN. Now, if at all, it has frozen or not, I'm not sure... Maybe I'm too impatient for the life of a smartphone.

    In any case, I decided to take out the battery to reset the phone, I have grown really tired and has to work in the morning, I so wanted to just turn my phone and turn it on again, put my wake up and go to sleep. As I just re - turn the phone on, it starts to load up as it usually does, then a screen appears:

    "Blackberry 5.0.0.496 platform.

    Then it lists a whole bunch of items in the phone, in alphabetical order, the first being "Addressbook."

    Then, in seconds, the screen goes all white and a small message will appear "Error App 606" and it gives me the only option of resetting my phone. I click on reset, and it's a cycle... The phone seems to be loading as it normally would, and then he'll come back to this screen of the Blackberry platform, then the App error 606.

    I ring my network provider in the morning to see if they can help me, but I was wondering if anyone of you here would know about this at all? I feel so stupid for the cause!

  • BlackBerry smartphones help serious necessary with BB 8520 required: (.)

    Hello

    IM new to these forums and a very new user for BlackBerry Smartphones.

    Well, cut to the Chase, today, my best friend give me a BlackBErry 8520 purple Royal as it comes to order the new BlackBerry Storm 2.

    My companion didn't tell me his password of deivce, discovered that I had to wipe my incoming express unit in a wrong password 10 times. After that, insert sim, put in place a free Wi - Fi, bluetooth, date & time etc, and thought id let me girlfriend know my news.

    It turns out that ive been many text to my contacts to sims, although none of them has been sent successfully, this makes google searches and I diverted to here, and how people bought BB on the black list on Ebay, or as much as sending and having the same problem.

    I also have the same problem, but my phone has been used by my friend perfectly for 5 months? Oh and I CAN use the internet and email, and windows live Messenger, I can't use my apps like Tumblr, myspace or facebook.

    I also have 'edge' at the top right of my receipt of phones, and all Blackberry users that if sims saved on the phone, mine is not? What can I do to fix this?

    I have no message configuration setting, and I do not know how to enter manually? If I can use the SIM card internet? Surely its registered and 150% is not on the blacklist...

    Please any help would be really appreciated and all advice will be taken, I will not go back to my Nokia5800 XpressMusic

    Thanks in advance... Thomas

    You must call your operator and ask about the add-on data Plan BlackBerry to your account.

    Simple as that.

  • BlackBerry smartphones help on my 9650

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    I recommend that you try to start safe mode:

    • KB17877 How to start a smartphone BlackBerry in Mode safe

    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 '. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup of your PC... Please see the Backup link in my sig auto on this post for instructions.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones help BB Storm will synchronize only one way

    When I enter an appointment in my calendar from device, and then try Outlook 2003 calendar SYC, it will not be synchronized (appointments appear in my Outlook calendar).  If I enter my Outlook calendar appointment it will synchronize the appointments on my device.  I have entered in the configuration of the Fund Manager and assign the two-way synchronization. Still no luck.

    I found the problem.  When you create a new appointment, there is an article that says "send help:" this is a list of all email addresses you receive from emails on your Blackberry.  In some ways, the email address was changed to another.  This has caused the problem of synchronization.  Once I changed it to one that was already there, the two way sync worked.

    I still don't know where you configure what email address it uses.  If someone knows let me know.  Or email to three addresses are emails that I synchronize in Outlook.
