new to the forum and for BB.

Just got a BB "BOLD" and I was wondering how to configure my phone (browser) to use WIFI ONLY, as 3G is very expencive, but we have a good free WIFi coverage.

Same for BB Messenger, thanks in advance!

Hello

When you configure the options of the browser, there is a place where you choose the browser by default to take. In the list, it should be "hot spots" and also the "WAP/WML" as well as "browser". BBSingh offers you to choose hotspot as default browser.

  • BlackBerry smartphones giving my wife my 9780

    Hello, first post on this forum.

    A hardware upgrade, I now use a Q10.  I give my wife my Bold 9780.  We have just received his SIM card from our supplier.

    I wonder to get his phone to work do we just put new SIM card in the "BOLD" or do we need to reset the phone and erase all my information out there?  I don't know that she doesn't want all my information out there.

    I have all the information from the old phone transferred to my PC and on the new phone.

    Thanks in advance.

  • BlackBerry smartphones yet another WIFI problem

    Just bought my daughter a blackberry Curve 8520. She has NO contract data and Internet disabled.

    Configure WIFI on his phone, connects to the router fine but still have a login name of goods of dash (-).

    Therefore, when she tries to go, she gets the message «Unable to connect to the internet...» »

    We've travelled this and many other forums, we tried most of the suggestions and corrections, but NONE of them worked!

    How are we supposed to use the WIFI feature?

    We tried to contact our provider network that leads us quickly to Blackberry support! Rang them who told us to use this forum or to pay shedloads of money to have a technician help. Why should we have to pay a technician to solve a problem on a new phone?

    Absolutely, Services of data must be on. Otherwise, no data.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BBM w / WiFi works only after changing SIM card not

    Hello

    I need help (otherwise I would not write here). I have the Bold 9930. Until I left the States, my phone was working perfectly fine... I had an email, BBM, whatsapp, text, etc...

    When I arrived in Haiti, I wanted to change my SIM card, then I would be able to use / have a number of Haitian. I don't have an international plan. When the guy put my the Haitian SIM, the phone asked my BlackBerry ID and password. I typed all the two, which were both correct, but he told me that it was a wrong password. The guy told me that the only way I'd be able to 'reset' from my BlackBerry ID would be to disconnect and to do this, it would eliminate all my pictures and everything. I didn't do that so I ended up buying a Haitian phone w / a Haitian SIM card.

    At this point, I have two phones. An American with a SIM American (BlackBerry) and a Haitian phone with a SIM card that is Haitian.

    When I got home, I turned on my American phone and its WiFi, but my BBM and emails were NOT WORKING! However, my Facebook application and the browser are both works perfectly well.

    I restarted my phone several times since yesterday and nothing has changed. I checked this morning to see if it worked, but not luck.

    So my question (s) / issue (s) is now:

    1. How can I get my BBM works again? (probably the most important)

    2. How can I get my email working again?

    3. is it possible possible for me to have my BlackBerry (US phone) work with my Haitian SIM card?

    Please, please, please, help.

    Unfortunately, the device works as expected. Facebook, the wifi browser work fine on wifi but BBM and email REQUIRE a valid BlackBerry data Plan.

    The only way to make it work is to have a BlackBerry data Plan on the Haitian Sim Card.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BBM using wifi?

    Hi guys...

    Question: How to use Blackberry Messenger using Wifi in Blackberry Curve 9220 (OS 7.1)?

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Regardless of the path (for example, network operator data or WiFi), to use the BB exclusive services (including the BBM) requires a plan of adequate data from your provider. For generic information, see this:

    You need to talk to your mobile service provider to see what data plan, you need (them) to enable the services you want.

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Internet using WiFi possible without Mobile provider?

    I have a Blackberry Bold 9650 with no Mobile provider (he previously had Verizon).  Is it possible to use the Internet on the Bold 9650 by connecting to my WiFi at home, or is it only possible if the phone has Mobile provider service active? I am able to use Internet on my iOS and Android phones using WiFi with no Mobile provider, but I get the impression that it is impossible on the Bold 9650.  I connect to my WiFi at home, but I get no Internet service on the phone.  I also want to upgrade the operating system from 5 to 6, but the BlackBerry Desktop Software says that the upgrade is not available, because I have no Mobile provider?

    I was wrong.  I think OS6 for the 9650.  Without a data plan, it's a bit more involved to date, however.  You must wipe the device completely and then reload the OS from scratch.

    You have to find a company that offers the update by download.  Here are the instructions.

    1. start by searching for your operator and the system operating file that you want to use.

    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

    2. it's not bad to do a manual of your device first, backup using the Desktop Manager > backup. Close at the end Office Manager and disconnect it from BlackBerry. You can get the BlackBerry Desktop Software here http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/

    3. download the OS from step 1 of the file on the PC then install on the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.

    4. go into c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml." Also, check the following locations for the vendor.xml file and delete all instances of the file:

    On Windows Vista/7, go to C:\Users\YOUR_USER\AppData\Roaming\Research in XML Motion\BlackBerry\Loader (where 'YOUR_USER' is your user name)

    On Windows XP, go to C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR_USER\Application is In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML (where 'YOUR_USER' is your user name)

    5 use BBSAK from BBSAK.org and wipe the device (after doing a full backup), then after you get the 507 error (no OS installed) then go to the next step.

    6. plug the BlackBerry and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in c:\program files\common research in motion\apploader

  • Problems with the WEB BROWSER blackBerry Smartphones, use not wifi network to open some Web sites

    Hello I'm owner of BB BOLD 9900 OS 7.1... for the last two days I am facing a pretty annoying problem with the BB browser.

    It means not affects the device... it just annoys me.

    When I TURN ON my WiFi on my BB with the network carrier Sim already homepage active who has a Active on it and open the web browser BB, according to the website on which I open the web browser chooses between the internet Wi - fi OR internet BIS carrier which is weird. BECAUSE a default if the wifi is enabled, then the web browser MUST use internet wifi network carrier for navigation. YOU TUBE, FB and TWITTER.com all use my carrier netwrok to open bt soon I open BBC.com or CNN or any other site the wifi symbol appears on the right side and so it uses the wifi network... and disappears when I opened THE 3 SITES you tube FB n twitter.

    My knowledge is that when you activate THE wifi network, the WEB browser is intended to USE the wireless internet, NOT the internet carrier

    The next time I switchd off the the carrier signal, and then Turned ON one internet WI - FI and then opened the web browser of BB. so now all the opend website with wifi internet bt as soon as I open YOU TUBE or FB or TWITTER.com it post a comment... .that cannot visit the web page when the carrier is off. Please turn on the radio n try again... I mean IT SHOULD OPEN with internet wifi? WHY do network carrier sim to open the web page?

    I have checkd my browser settings and they are default and also my wifi settings I have reset the... the problem still persists?

    any idea wats going on?

    Please help is needed I'm annoyed about this problem...

    Thank you

  • BlackBerry smartphones is possible Wifi on the 8310 Curve?

    Hello

    I'm in the United Kingdom.  My service provider is O2.  They tell me that it should be possible to connect to my Wifi at home.  It doesn't seem to be an option to do this on my phone.  Is it because this model (8310) does not have this capability?  Or am I missing something?

    Any help appreciated,

    John

    Hello

    some 83xx have wifi, but some don't. The 8310 does not, however, offer WiFi
