BlackBerry Smartphones look Contact names when it is locked

• BlackBerry & Smartphones Photos Contact names ceased to show (9650)

  Hello:

  Earlier, I added photos contact to all my BBerry Contacts.  It worked perfectly for quite a while.

  But the last 2 weeks (or more), when I get a call I get no resources and no contact photo.  Just the number, which, if I don't recognize, I'm going to ignore.

  (The reason why I have the names and photos is so I don't have to memorize numbers.  )

  The contact photos are always in my contacts list, so nothing happened to them.  And ss as much as I know I haven't added new applications.  So I'm puzzled as to why they would suddenly stop showing when I get a call.

  Anyone know how I can make them work properly?

  I covered this Council and google for an answer and not found anything.  Thank you very much in advance...

  Hello

  I would recommend to check if you have encryption enabled on the BlackBerry smartphone or press card. Go to the Options-Security Options. If it is enabled, disable it and try again then take out the battery.

  Thank you

• BlackBerry smartphones deleted contacts repopulation when synchronized

  I cleaned my contacts on my BB on the Road yesterday. Imagine my surprise when I synced my phone (Outlook 2010) and sync wanted to add 200 deletions to my device.

  How do I sync delete my Outlook contacts instead of re-filling of my device?

  Seem to have solved by defining desktop BB software to a one-way synchronization of the device with the PC and then re-configuration 2-way sync later.

  Hi and welcome to the forums!

  Usually the seller (Vodaphone in this case) switch them when you buy the unit. I Sue this option first.

  If you use the same SIM which was in the Nokia try the following:

  Import contacts from the SIM card to your contact list

  If this does not work you can try using the Switch Device Wizard in the Desktop Manager software:

• BlackBerry smartphones Add Contact Pro app - download problem

  Hi all

  I have the BB 8520 curve. Last week I bought 'Add Contact Pro' on Blackberry app World. After purchase and during the download I received an error and stopped the whole process. The app didn't download. I sent mail to the developer app three times but no response.

  Thank you

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  I suggest that you clear the cache of the AppWorld application.

  For legacy devices (pre-BB10):

  1. open the App World

  2. go to my world

  3. follow one (and only one!) of these steps:

  3. for the BB keyboard-oriented - hold down the ALT key and press on, in the sequence R, then S, then T

  3B. for touch screen only BBs - hold the num-lock (! 123 button) so that it hangs and then press on, in the sequence 3, then 4, then)

  3 c for the most recent (e, g., OS6 and 7) BB s, see this KB:

  • KB24714 How to clear the cache of BlackBerry App World

  4 AppWorld must close.

  5. If your BB locks after issuing clear cache, do a battery pull reboot

  6. return to AppWorld/MyWorld (it can be slow, while it re - sync). .

  If (4) stage arrives not as described, then the empty the cache failed.

  For BB10 devices:

  • KB33818 Applications in BlackBerry World are stuck in a State facility and cannot be cancelled or removed from the download list

  After the empty Cache, then to re - install the app, please see this KB:

• BlackBerry Smartphones eception exception error when entering the "Messages".

  I have a client who uses a Blackberry World Edition (8830) and when it tries to go in Messages (by clicking on the Messages icon) it gets this error message all the time: uncaught Exception: java.lang.null.pointer

  I tried 2 types of resets, alt + Cap + del and tried to remove the battery when the BB is running and the same thing, I did a hard reset, that is wiping the BB and customer has left me a message this morning that he always gets the same error message.

  My BES Console (synchronize us with Domino servers on a Lotus Notes platform), I see that he has the

  version of the 3.0.0.81 platform

  The BlackBerry version: 4.2.2.196

  His blackberry had a Bell Mobility service.

  At present, the only other thing I can think of is to download the operating system and reload it on the BB using Desktop Manager.

  Can someone help me with this please.  I appreciate all the help.

  * Update - my client turned on his blackberry with the BES this morning and sent a message that, after activation, the problem seems to be resolved.  Now, is there something different that can be done in case this happens again, we have more than 800 users of blackberry and most of them have the 8830 model.

  Hello

  Your troubleshooting actions have been directly on the money, I see.

  HRT is the host Routing Tables. It's entries sent by the carrier.

  When you highlight the entry above and you click on register now, he recorded with the wireless network. Update the details of the device on the relay of the rim and down icons specific carrier or applicants

  I think that the problem existed in an application corrupted on the smartphone users, by recording the phone, the application

  has been refreshed. It's the first time I've seen this particular exception message solved without device

  reload. (Just for reference I read messages 133150).

  Hello!

  If it is compatible, provided by RIM device switch Wizard will accomplish the task. You can read about it here:

• BlackBerry Smartphones looking for backup file BlackBerry IPD Category Descriptions

  Hello world

  For the life of me. I can't seem to find the list of category descriptions listed in a *. IPD backup file.

  What I basically want to do, is to isolate the sound patterns (alerts) and * NOT * have the backup file wipe out the original default patterns that are loaded with a clean installation of the BlackBerry Device Software.  Also, that the list description would come very handy for future restorations!

  Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction.

  Thank you!

  Bobby Kidd

  Hi and welcome to the Forums!

  Hmmm... Category descriptions... I'm not quite positive which is... maybe it's databases? If so, here's a knockout that lists those:

  • KB03974 List of all databases on the BlackBerry smartphone

  I'm guessing that your tent a selective restore of certain databases rather than restore complete. What happens, however, is the replacement of the complete database indeed... regardless of the database that is located on the device is is replaced by what is in the IPD file. For some databases, there are tricks to merge the data that can be undertaken - for most messages, calendar, contacts and tasks... 'the organizer' standard databases, but I don't know the method to merge the databases of configuration (as well as alert profiles).

  Good luck!

  Hi and welcome to the Forums!

  RIM provides a device switch Wizard to migrate from another SmartPhone to a BB... but only for compatible devices. See this KB:

  • KB05459 How to use the switch device Wizard to switch to another smartphone to a BlackBerry smartphone

  If your old phone is not compatible with the wizard, then RIM more offers the possibility to import ASCII and CSV files. See this KB:

  • KB04312 Create and synchronize with an ASCII export file
    KB11194 How to import contacts from a CSV file to the BlackBerry
  • Sorry, but RIM does no research on how to get your data from your old device and in ASCII format or CSV... it is a function of your old device.

  In addition, you could (I think should) use a desktop PIM for your data (and you should, IMO). You must choose a compatible PIM of this KB. Then download your data from your old device and the PIM Office. Next, configure the BB to sync with the PIM:

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  Indeed, these IPD files are backups of your BB and are available as a source of food (they are a proprietary format and cannot be used for any other purpose, except by a few 3rd party applications that have been written to analyse). Choose the most recent one (the one with the most recent date and time, as displayed in the File Manager Windows) using this procedure:

• Doesn´t blackBerry Smartphones ring my BB when they call me

  The sound works perfectly, because I can listen to music I ve transferred to the BB. But for a few hours, my blackberry doesn´t make sounds when people are trying to reach me (sms or phone calls), even if it vibrates.
  I ve checked the parameters (Normal) profile, and all the sounds are in volume 5, when I try the button 'experience' on the profile settings I can´t listen to anything.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you guys

  With the BlackBerry device under voltage, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to restart.

  Now have a friend calls you and test it.

• Name of the Contact to blackBerry Smartphones does not appear when someone calls?

  I have a BB 8520 curve and whenever someone rings me it just displays their number and not their name so I never know who's calling. How to solve this problem?

  It could be one of the three solutions... Try these:

  1. make sure that you set your own country code to the Phone Dialer 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 local area 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.
  Look at the Options > Security > General settings. Scroll down to the content Protection > include addresses = no

  I'm considering buying a BB Tour 9630.  I use MS Outlook contacts Notes field.  Some of my notes by contact are more than 10,000 characters long.  My Palm Treo 700 p allows me to view/edit these long notes.  Can the field notes Manager contact BB manage this number of characters, or it is truncated to a shorter length?  I am a small operation, only use is not an Exchange Server.  Also, does have another software of device than what comes with the BB to sync with my PC local Outlook PST?
