BlackBerry Smartphones how long my BB 8900 should take to recharge by USB?

Hello

I recently bought a Curve 8900 and I wonder how long it is supposed to take to charge using the USB.

So far, turned off my laptop, it takes more than 4 hours. I'm trying my office...

I downloaded the latest updates etc with the exception of USB drivers, do I have to install that as well as the desktop (version 4.7) software?

Any help would be great!

See you soon

Thanks to you two!

I guess I'm used to my Pearl super charging...

See you soon

    I want to start using it and I can not yet--frustrating!

    Belinda, you will be fine to use now, as I said, three hours of Boomer is sufficient.

    And really, you don't have to wait until it has been fully charged to use it, no harm.

  • BlackBerry smartphone how to synchronize my 8900 with my Mac

    Can someone tell me how to get my BB to sync with my Mac. I 10.4 on my Mac and have sync my BB once to get contacts on him, but he did not finish an update of the synchronization again. He go to contacts and does not go. I use pocketMac and have the low charges implemented to date.

    You can download BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac. It is available for download now at http://blackberry.com/mac

    However, since you have Mac OS x 10.4, it will not work because the BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac requires at least Mac OS x 10.5.5.

    You can easily switch to Mac OSX 10.6 now. This is only an upgrade $30 Apple.

    I hope this helps.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones how long do it take to back up?

    I just downloaded the Blackberry Desktop Software and when I connected my curve 9300 it starts back up. The problem is that it seems to get stuck on 12 of 13 records RMS databases. I canceled the first go after 20 minutes and the second thumb has been blocked again 40 minutes later. Will I be impatient or is there a problem?

    Fiona, in the desktop software, go to device > backup > select data and deselect the RMS database to back up.

    Click to continue and see if the remaining backup works ok?

    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

    • If you do not have access CMIME, continue deleting

    • 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.

    Good luck and let us know!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones how I respond to e-mail

    If someone sends me an email and I hit the reply button, I'm allowed to type my response, but the only choice I have when I want to send, "Save draft" or DELETE.  When I read the FAQ, it indicated that I must go to the individual name who sent me email, hit dial and then send.   Before resetting and updated my BB software, I could answer without problem.  Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere?   Chuck

    • 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.

    I hope that will move things again for you! If not, then you should try remove and re-add your BIS lines for these accounts.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    The easiest way is, on a PC (you can not do on MAC):

    (1) make sure that you have a current backup and your BB complete... you can find the instructions at the link in my auto-sig below.

    2) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,

    (3) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

    (4) download and install on your computer, the BB OS package you want:

    • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    • If all you want are the levels of BONE, it is first sorted by carrier - the carrier supports, your search will be fast. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To really get the package up-to-date OS for your BB, you need to dig through and find all businesses that support your specific model BB and then compare the BONE levels they support.
    • Use this KB to help you choose the good alternative OS to include the language you want:
      • Article ID: KB05305 Location of support for BlackBerry smartphones

    5) remove all copies of the SELLER on your PC. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

    6 (a) to change your level of BB OS installed (at level or lower), you can run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC.

    6 (b) or, for recharging your BB OS level installed as well to change, work around the Desktop software and use the CHARGER. EXE directly, through step 2 in this process:

    If, during the process of 6a or 6 b, your BB has an error '507', simply unplug the USB of the BB cord and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue. During the process, when it presents you with the screen of the things Application Loader to install on your device, make sure to develop options and select all items that relate to your desired language.

    Once the operating system is loaded, you can proceed with the activation of the language you want and restoring your backup (on the device).

    If you are on a MAC, you are limited to only your sanctioned carriers OS packages... but can still use any level they currently have to sanction. See this procedure:

  • BlackBerry Smartphones how really power off

    (Q) how do you turn off the phone?

    When the phone is off, it seems that a simple click of the red switch on again the phone.  This seems to be a design flaw.  All other devices not BB I know off requires that you hold the button for a few seconds to reactivate.  This prevents the phone to accidentally be turned on.

    Let me explain a use case.  When you travel, you will need to turn off your phones.  Therefore, the normal procedure is to red hang up key and the power of the phone down will.   It is as expected.  Suppose you turn then the BlackBerry in the pocket of the seat in front of you.    In the middle of the flight, you hit your knee against the seat pocket.  The red button that he typed during this process.  The powers now phone on!  You're on Earth and your phone rings.  The flight attendant and passengers all give unpleasant you looks like no real fault of your choice.  This type of problem has happened a few times.

    I know that you can go in and manually turn off telephone connections, but it is an extra step.  Turn off the phone should take care of that and it should remain off until the user wants to turn it on.

    I see this behavior on my 8310 and 8900 and 9800.  I hope that I'm missing something simple?

    Thoughts?

    in the demo video, it indicates that you should go and disable all connections for inflight compliance.
