BlackBerry smartphones how configure e-mail, add apps, use the web via wireless modem?

Hello

Have a new 8310. Operating system is v4.5.0.37 platform 2.7.0.55I'm in Australia, currently with Telstra, but by train to change.

I didn't buy a data plan for the phone. I have a wireless modem for my desktop & wondering if I can use this to connect my phone to the web without buying data?

Do I need a data plan to send emails? Can I use my acct (yahoo) of existing email online, or I need to set up a special telephone? If so, please explain where and how? If this is not the case, what other info I have to configure the existing one? It seems that I need a PIN and e-addy & password (and assuming this is the yahoo password?)

TIA

Do I need a data plan to send emails?

Yes. Basically, to do anything other than use of the phone, you need a data plan. Period.

Yes... See the above reading material.

or I have to put in place a special for the phone?

No.... not required.

PIN... hmmm... There are several definitions for this acronym in the world of BB. The most usual is a unique identifier, as an IP address or phone number, that is assigned to the factory to your BB. It is used to register your BB for various services (Yes, through a data plan) to identify your BB on the network.

I hope this helps.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones how to send pictures of BB to the Mac via Bluetooth?

    I used to do that all the time. Click on a photo on my BB and choose Send using Bluetooth. A pop up window would be on my Mac to accept or refuse the transfer. VERY EASY.

    Now, he always says: "cannot find the service. System Preferences > Bluetooth shows a 'Not connected' red light, but says they are paired. What can be wrong?

    So the solution on OS X 10.5 and above, you must enable Bluetooth sharing in system preferences. Older version of Mac OS X did not require this. Problem solved.

  • BlackBerry smartphones, why do I need an app for some Web pages?

    Please forgive me, because I am a new owner of BB.  I don't understand why I need apps for certain things (Pandora, LogMeIn, etc.).  Here are the sites I want to visit using the browser.  If I was using my computer at home, I would just connect to my Pandora account.  No software has been downloaded (that I remember).  So why can't just visit the Web page of my BB?  I understand if I want to use a real program (Word, Excel, etc.) that the software must be downloaded beforehand, but I only visit a Web page... TIA

    But your BlackBerry is not a complete PC, not the same processor fast, etc., and not the same data entry speed, so an application on the device help to 'manage' the spped and debit date on the mobile device by buffereing entry and be simply 'more effective' you can use the device.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones how can I display my name during the SENDING of SMS on 9300?

    It seems to have ticked all the boxes, I can find regarding 'Full name' but my 9300 3 still insists on sending messages just text using the text number and displays NOT my name as the sender of the text - why?  My friends need to know that the text is of me!

    I have no problem with email - which contains my e-mail address, what has my name in it.

    Grateful for any help here because I am a new user.

    This is not possible - your friends need to have your number in their address book with your name to show him from you, when they receive a text.

  • BlackBerry smartphone how to install manually a cert on the phone

    I've seen some KB13355, which is not much help.  It indicates that you can manually import a cert that is received on the phone via emnail, but I can't find how to do this.  We do not want our users to install if possible Office Manager.  I checked the users guide and searched the RIM support site but can't seem to find instructions on how to manually import the cert.

    Thank you

    OK - I just tried a test... try this.

    On the BB, open an email containing the attachment .cer. Scroll down to the bottom of the message and find the link to the cert downstairs (not the 'Annex 1' above). Highlight, then click on the BBKey. Select the certificate to recover (you might need to open the full menu). Then BBKey again and select view certificate... which should show you even more options. Unfortunately, I cannot completely validate the installation process that I already have the cert installed on mine I need, so he told me to go ahead would not be good because what I installed is newer than what I display.

    Let us know how it goes. (I agree - I thought that it would be simpler!)

    1. you noted in your profile here you have 'none' as a mobile operator or carrier, is this correct?

    2. did you delete the Vendor.xml from PC?

    Go to c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml." (You might have another Vendor.xml file hiding on your computer.) Open Windows Explorer, and in organizing key (on Windows 7, there are similar tools for Vista and XP) click on 'folder and search options. On the display tab, make sure that your computer is configured to display the hidden files and folders. Once you have done this, look for your drive C:\ "Vendor.xml".)

    * Starting with later versions of the OS6, there are now three copies of the SELLER. XML
    C:\Program Files\Fichiers Research In Motion\AppLoader (for 32-bit Windows XP/Vista/7)
    ==========OR============
    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader (for 64-bit Windows Vista/7)
    C:\Documents and Settings\ * name * \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
    C:\Documents and Settings\ * name * \Application Data\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
    You can also just search of the SELLER. XML. ensure that you choose the ADVANCED SEARCH and include hidden files. It should display the file in three places. Delete all copies that it finds.

  • I have blackBerry Smartphones how to retract a magazine App World?

    I put in a good review for Simple browser, but want to change. Anyone know how?

    I was too fast for rent. It works wonders on the Playbook, but tabbing quad simply does not work properly, and nobody seems to even acknowledge emails of support.  If I had read all the reviews I knew that of course.

    This may seem a small complaint, but when someone pay a few pounds/dollars/euros for something as Simple browser, were it Firefox would be free, and then find the part of it does not work and no one answers support emails containing screenshots and details, it's frustrating.  Especially when unlike Amazon, you can't get a refund.

    However, AIRbrowser queue manager is free but I had a great exchange of ideas with the developer who has contributed to the fixed a minor bug in real time, so I expect a lot more in Exchange for cash.

    Currently, there is no mechanism for users to delete or edit comments. This is a serious issue on which many complained, without particular solution or timetable for a promised so far, to my knowledge.
