BlackBerry smartphones not wiping data and restore the original downgrade OS?

I have a 8820 with a damaged e-mail folder. I want to wipe the data. I upgraded to OS 4.5. I want to assure you that the wiping and restore to original settings will not downgrade my OS. It seems logical that this will not happen, but I want to make sure.

Thank you!

You are right. Wiping just clears the data of the device, not the operating system.

The only way to downgrade the OS is to go into Add/Remove programs and uninstall the newer operating system. You will then need to download and install an earlier version of the operating system. Then, you will need to go into the Application Loader to load the older operating system on the device.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones trying to backup and restore - pin not recognized

    I hope someone can help me!

    I'm trying to back up my data on my 8320 and my pin code is not recognized.  I downloaded the software, while the phone was NOT connected.

    Is it possible that this issue MAY have something to do with the company's server?  I've owned my blackberry for years.  When I took a new job, I asked my personal blackberry to be hung on the server of the company.  When I left the company, I have asked that it be removed from my blackberry.  I have not tried to save the data for this time.  I'm changing phones and my pin code is not recognized.  Further study revealed that the IT security certificate is always on the phone.  Could this be why I can't save the data?

    Are there other options to move the data to the new phone without wiping data from my old phone?  I need to transfer my saved e-mail messages, entries in the calendar and contacts of 1111 to my new phone.

    Does anyone have a solution for me?

    Thank you very much

  • My phone blackBerry smartphones is extremely slow and eat the battery

    I have faced this problem for 3 days and went to my service provider today to inquire.

    My phone has been extremely slow, the time clock thing is for still running, and so my phone dies in 3 to 4 hours with no real use. I was told that it was because I need to update my OS but when I got home and plugged in it says that my phone is up to date and there is no upgrade available OS. I bought a spare battery to see if it was the problem and it is not. This is getting very frustrating. He even got to the point of when I lock the phone I can't unlock it during the same get the screen to turn on. the only way to start is to pull the battery out and put back.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones not receive email and facebook notifications

    Can someone help me?  I do not receive email or facebook notifications on my blackberry curve 8530.  I took out the battery and also ran a diagnostic Test that said I was connected.  When I tried to run E-mail assigning said "having problems connecting to the server.  What can I do?

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    There is a current major outage... official information are available here:

    From my experience, this affects BIS, BES and all services that depend on those (BBM, email, AppWorld, web browsing, application access to the data from the internet, etc.). Troubleshooting specific issues during this interruption may be unnecessary.

    Once the fault clears, if things are not yet flowing for you, try the following steps:

    (1) registry HRT

    • Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > host Routing Table > (it matter little what line is current) > sign up now

    (2) Service reference books

    • KB02830 Send the directories for the BlackBerry Internet Service

    (3) restart to take batt

    • 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!

    See you soon!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones new Curve 8330 and charge the battery/question already?

    Hi all

    I just got a new Curve 8330 last week.  I noticed that it takes ages to completely charge the phone when the battery only about 40%.  The other day it took about 5 hours to get to 100%, I use the power supply provided and also tried the USB cable with the software already installed.

    Tonight, it's about 60 percent, and I decided to load it.  After 3 hours or more, he went up to 45, then 40% and I was not still use it.  Battery icon is there (the icon of the card) then he recognizes it is connected.  I did the battery pull and wait another hour, another 40%.  Then another battery pull and still 40% after an hour.

    I came on this forum and saw the mention of the app QuickPull.  Downloaded it, ran it, and after it restarted, it had fallen to 5%!  Now, it says "low battery" and I do not really understand why.

    Until I started typing this post, I made an another battery pull and abandoned the USB plug.  It is now back up to 15%.  I am really hesitant to reach a store because the last time I brought my LG phone on a known battery problem (getting bulgy where you can spin) and they winded in my entire phone replacement

    Please let me know what I'd do here.  Is this a battery problem, phone licensing, etc.?  What my expectations are on acquire it quickly back to 100%?  I do not drain the battery that much.  It took two days so he can go down to 60%, but I do not understand why it takes so long to load and then it seems to perform when I plug.

    Thanks for your time.  I know this is a long post.  My battery is now 20%?  So he went from 5 to 20% in less than half an hour so confused.

    If you had access to another battery and/or charger, I suggest that you try to change one and if it does not, another permutation. You will have to perhaps just take the phone back, but if I were you, I would make them give me a new battery and charger, just to be safe, because it looks like one or the other may be bad.

  • How can I get first remove additional background and restore the original proportions?

    I edited to 15 minutes of video in 1080 p, in the end, I added an image to the sequence in 3000 x 2000 that changed the resolution and the aspect ratio of all the elements of the project. Every single video or image has black bars on the sides. I tried exporting at 1080 p in any case, in the hope that it might cut the surplus, but he just resized the sides black 1080 p so half of the screen is black with a little video in the Center. Zoom in does not work because it is not reset the original proportions. Using the parameters of the sequence to cut away half of the image in 1080 p so that either doesn't work for me. Is there a way to remove and recover the videos of how they have been or have I just lost the last 5 hours?

    After a few hours of research just about anywhere I could think and swearing like a sailor, I managed to find a solution by myself. When you export the media, in the upper left corner, there are options to scale the videos and one of them fixed it for me. Suffice to say in case someone else is having the same problem.

  • BlackBerry Z10 wiped data and software reloaded

    Then, I saved my previous 9810 Blackberry link and restored the backup in the Z10.

    After a few hours, I realized that my schedule did not play a sound when it should have.  The notification has been set to turn on the led and the volume has been set, where it should be.  But still no sound.

    I opened one of the regular events in EDIT and selected HOME (Local calendar). Then selected "Reminder" to correct the selection of "from".  When I did an open window display settings 'Sound' which was 'off' and selections for "Led" and "Vibration".  I turned the sound 'ON '.  That solved my problem of tone missing

    But, the default sound is a gentle three beeps.  I went back to the "revival" and there is no way to access the screen that allowed me to activate the sound.  Since then, I use the calendar as an alarm clock, I'm in trouble because of his soft low.  It has not worked that way before.  The sound was controlled by Notification settings.

    I don't know who to warn about this problem.  In my opinion, a change that was not necessary.

After deleting to do a battery pull reboot as this device powered on remove the battery wait a min. then reinsert back.

  • I restored the computer to an earlier date and now the password windows 7 won't save us.

    I restored my computer to girls at an earlier date, and now the password windows 7 won't save us. She never changed the password before and now we cannot connect. How to do it please help.

    This means that a different password was in effect at this point, even if your daughter thinks otherwise. There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
    • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
    • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
    • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
    • Use the password indicator (only works if an indicator was created and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
    • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)
    The most important point would be: run a machine without a spare admin account is about as risky to have a house key. Sooner or later, he is at risk for any number of reasons.

  • Form Validation failure: "value is not a date and time in the format"

    Hello world

    I am facing a weird problem in my custom OAF page. I'm displaying the records of a particular table through dynamic VO and dynamic array. All records appear correctly. But when I try to click on NEXT 10 records in a table, I get the error like "FAILED FORM VALIDATION: 1000 ORG CUST BO VERSION is not a date and time in the format. Just like in the screenshot below.

    DESKTOP.JPG

    Strange part of the question, if I select the columns to display not related to this day, so I only am not facing problems. If I select only dates to display and also am not facing this problem. If I use the mixture of this type varchar2 and data, I get this error.

    I tried to change the type of data but no use.

    If we close, look at the PARTY_ID error message trying to copy its data to ORG_CUST_BO_VERSION the last column. Why what's happening clue me less. Can anyone guide me on this please?

    The problem is that you use the same name for the creation of the MessageTextInputBean inside the Table.

    The name of MessageTextInputBean make it dynamic.

    ex: -.

    OAMessageTextInputBean oamessage = (OAMessageTextInputBean) createWebBean (pageContext,

  • Backup BlackBerry Smartphones get BB protect compared to the clouds

    Hello world

    I tried the manual backup yesterday by the site Web de Blackberry Protect. I successfully backed up the first time and made a few changes on my BB Curve 9300. Freed from some space by deleting messages and other data. I also want to return to the top of that State or to this specific point, I did the backup through the site Web of Protect. To my surprise (and I'm not aware) the new backup crushed my previous where in I need important messages I deleted expects that the backup will just create another set of backup rather than crush the other.

    My question is. Are there opportunities that I can restore this backup?

    After a few searches on Google and read messages. I knew that the backup is saved in the cloud that has lost the chances of recovering data backup with recovery tools that I can use.  I thought that if I can retrieve/recover deleted files and even formatted disks, technical staff of BB Protect or RIM could do the same and help me with my problem.

    Hope my message reached the Cloud for RIM or BB Protect administrator.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    First of all... this site is not a channel for any official communication with, support, or climbing to the RIM. This site is a community of users for volunteers who are trying their best to help each other, but we have no access to any system "back-end" to act on your request. If you really need official support from RIM, you must start with your support contract required string that starts with your mobile service provider, which can degenerate case RIM free of charge to the end user if such is always appropriate.

    There is something called incident support, but it costs to just ask the original question, since you are not through the contract, you signed at the time of purchase. If you want to study, you can check it out here:

    OK... with that of the road, see:

If they are not, however, appear for one reason or another, they are not available to you through any means automatic... and you would need official support (above) of a human being to the RIM to see if it can be recovered.

    All this said, I hope that you are not solely on BB Protect for your backup needs. BB Protect only back up (I think) 8 databases, which is a small subset of all the content of all of your valuable data. FYI, here's the process that I always recommend:

    Daily - configure BB Protect to save what he can, preferring to WiFi if the network of consumer data carrier is a matter of concern.

    Weekly:

    If you're not up to BBM7, then manually save your BBM contacts to the memory of your device or Media Card

    As insurance, the backups are reactive or an optional activity. And this process, in my humble OPINION, provides the best protection of all the valuable data that is kept on their BB. When you compare BB Protect backup actually compared this process to protect, I think you will find that the difference is very large. In addition, this process would give you 100% control to keep the previous backups.

    Good luck!
