• BlackBerry Smartphones an another Noob Question (re mp3)

  Can I buy MP3s from Amazon or somewhere like that and put them on my Blackberry?  I'm confused whether the BB has a mp3 player.  Probably a stupid question, but thanks.

  Hello!

  Here's a knockout who deals with BB-compatible media formats:

  Indeed, the BB has a player - it should be the icon on your homescreen called "Media".

• BlackBerry Smartphones Dtek50 auto rotation question

  Hello community,

  my old Dtek50 of a month, sometimes stops auto rotation toggle turn same auto is on. I checked the settings-accessibility - auto rotation... is on. Device settings-display-when is turned isn't properly adjusted on do rotate the contents of the screen. I did the test of the sensor with the expert virtual Blackberry and the sensor works very well. I tried with a game using the sensor and everything is ok. A simple reboot solves always... but it's a bit boring.

  Last week, it happened twice. I noticed this problem after update from September.

  Anyway, today I did a factory reset... I'll monitor the device without having to install the apps I use generally.

  Has anyone else experienced this problem?

  Auto rotation problem solved! As I said in my previous posts my sensor has worked well (and so I have is maybe a software problem, kernel?).. .so I tried a few apps from the game store: the only one who's really works: "auto rotation to lie down". For those who are facing the problem just install the app and give the requested permissions. Works like charm! Glad for not having sent the smartphone for repair!

• BlackBerry Smartphones BBM (not a question of PEEM)

  Yesterday I bought a Blackberry 3 G (9300) mobile. I have inserted my sim card from my iPhone and proceeded to add contacts, etc. I was then informed that I couldn't use the services of Blackberry without having a Blackberry bolt - on on my account. I bought this bolt on and I am still yet to be able to connect and use the services on the mobile such as Facebook or mobile web browser. My friend who is well-versed in BlackBerry told me that my phone was not downloading the service books correct to connect to these applications.

  I currently use the phone with 3rd party Twitter applications (so I can connect to the internet).

  My network provider is o2UK, I have a data plan and I also have a bolt blackberry we activated.

  My internet settings under TCP IP are below:
  APN: payandgo.o2.co.uk
  APN username: payandgo
  APN password: password

  In my view, that the question is registration of the device to obtain the correct service books.

  Thanks to all those who can help you.

  The bolt is active (it came as ready to use when I registered on the site Web of O2).

  I have no idea what fixed my problem, but this morning the 3G logo on the top right of my phone has changed for a 3 g one (tiny g). I thought something was up, then I restarted the phone Mr. then I got a Blackberry message saying that my device was placed on the network.

  I then had access to all the features of BB as FB and BBM.

  Just display to help others in the future.

• BlackBerry Smartphones Hey guys, quick question on restoration...

  I currently have a blackberry pearl 8100 for tmobile. And I just bought a BB Curve 8320... that should happen some time next week... My question is... can I use my backups or present restorations on my bb curve? because I have a lot of text messages that I want to keep...

  Make selective backup described here:

  http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/Rim/Board/message?board.ID=8100&view=by_date_ascending&message.i...

  Back up only the information you need.

  After that you can restore information from ipd file saved to your new device.

• BlackBerry Smartphones Newbie with 2 questions, need help.

  Hi guys,.

  hope you can help. I recently bought a BB Curve and think it's great.

  However the LED stopped working. I turned off the unit and removed the battery. When I put it in the LED lights up red, so it must work. I checked my profile settings and all say that the LED must be on. I have changed this setting to disabled, backed up, and then put it back on and saved and still no action led.

  The second question is attachments on my emails. I can't open attachments, photos, documents spreadsheets nothing. I use desktop re-Director. Is it possible to have attachments that are sent using this unit or any other bits of software? I have the only BB at work so I'm not so sure, establishment of a BB server is viable.

  Your opinion would be greatly appreciated.

  There is not all the configuration parameters for the Service of the attachment. The following table describes the supported types of attachments on a BlackBerry

  http://www.BlackBerry.com/BTSC/KB03265

  By default the LED flashes green to indicate that you are in a wireless coverage area. I found it annoying and disabled. Check the setting under Options | Screen/keyboard and turn the LED coverage indicator inactive.

• BlackBerry Smartphones Hi there, a question for a person to answer it please on the app store! :)

  I was just wondering as I am only 16, how do you pay for the applications (which are not free, of course) of the store?

  I have an iPhone and I'm sure most of you know that you can get prepaid cards to make purchases of applications.

  Of course, I don't have a credit card, and I guess that's how make you payments? is there another way?

  Would love to hear from someone about it!

• BlackBerry Smartphones Contacts - strikethrough police question

  I use Outlook 2003 as my Contact Manager and I noticed when my "BOLD" BB OS7 syncs that notes for a contact does not support policies barred on the device.

  That is, s/n 0123456789 becomes 0123456789 on the device.

  Y at - it a fix for this or it may be an option in the future?

  OK, the strikethrough police is not supported. Personally, I don't know if or when it might be in the address book.

  You could do this through BetaZone suggestion if you are a member... www.BlackBerry.com/BetaZone

• Folder/icon blackBerry Smartphones Yahoo! Mail question

  When you add a Yahoo! Mail account on your BlackBerry (that is if you use Yahoo! Mail), it adds a folder in Yahoo! Mail on your BlackBerry screen (the icon is a folder with an icon of 'Y' purple & white).  I could have sworn that whenever you get new e-mail, folder would have some sort of marking icon showing that the mail was sitting inside, mine is not.  I haven't used my BlackBerry a few months that I was using my iPhone but have now retreated to the BlackBerry.  Anyway if anyone can confirm if the Yahoo! Mail folder on the screen is supposed to reflect the new messages (by image) I would appreciate it.  The only icon I've ever seen is at the top of the screen (the area where will your voicemail icon, etc.).

  Thank you.

  I have a yahoo email that I rarely use so I had never even added it to my BB. But I just added so I could see what you see and possibly try to help. When I added the email I got the same icon you described. It's an envelope with the purple Y! This overlap. I myself sent a test email. The phone vibrates and I got a notification at the top of my screen that I get for all emails, but unfortunately, the icon remained unchanged which is quite annoying actually because it distinguishes only the folder that contains the new message. I'm sorry.

• BlackBerry Smartphones TD Canada Trust question

  Hi all, I'm having a problem with my application. I used it yesterday afternoon WiFi and when I went to use it later in the evening, it would allow me to use it. I got the credits, you must use WiFi for use of this software or contact your vendor for an upgrade of the data. The thing is, I am connected to my wifi at home... I was able to go on youtube and check my yahoo email account. I could go back into my story and use the application for TD. I deleted the app and re-installed. I did a hard reboot as well on my phone. I'm getting frustrated with this problem.

  Help!

  I understood the question. I had my internet browser to "social browser" instead of "hotspot browser". Why only half of the app worked, I'll never know why. It works now and I'm happy.

• BlackBerry smartphones a few basic questions

  Some very basic q, I fear, about setting up email accounts.1.  I have not used my storm for 9 months and cannot remember the password to configure email accounts. I used the "forgot password" option and it says the password has been sent to my device, but I can't find it anywhere.  2. the last time that I used the camera, I received emails directly from my Yahoo account, but now, nothing is visible. Help!

  You always have the data Plan associated with your account BlackBerry? You must.

  And your password that you sent normally comes to the device via a PIN message.

  On your device, check the Options > Advanced > Service books. Do you think your email account as an entry listed as [CIMIME]?

  If all else fails, call your operator and your Plan of BIS data and readded to your account deleted.

• BlackBerry Smartphones [BB8800] GPS Simple question

  Hello

  I recently got a used BB8800 to a family member that I have a more recent version. I can't get a subscription (at resonable price) where I live who will support the internet features of it, if im just using it as a cell/text message device.

  My question, the build in GPS requires a subscription to work? I can't find the satellites at any time. Otherwise, my device may be broken or I don't know...

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi and welcome to the forums!

  It should be a plan of GPS data. I'm sorry.

  For future reference allow GPS, click options > advanced options > GPS services place on > location active caregiver.

  Thank you
