BlackBerry Smartphones Q10 Wipe

Well, something so simple turned into a nightmare! When I got my phone a couple of weeks, that my e-mail address has been struggling entered for the Blackberry ID, he didn't until I tried to download an application. So I called the customer service and the person on the other end told me the only way to fix is a security wipe. So this knuckle head me back up my data after be adjusted for the Blackberry link to my office, I record the date, then he told me to wipe it. The phone died and I realized that there is a big problem, he failed to tell me it was a total reset, I thought it was just for contacts and passwords and other data. So now, all is lost, apparently, after talking to another agent of customer service, which I was disconnected after a 2 + hour wait when my phone restarted. I'm more than 3 hours now and the phone has not been restarted, is this normal, and how long does it take? Should I get the customer service on the phone again after he ends, or can I start fresh just like when the phone was new and put up again? I'm new to Blackberry phones and certainly have not had a good experience so far.

As you describe a wipe will only wipe personal data, applications, contacts, preferences, calendar, etc. and should not perform that you described.

Please do this, remove the battery for and leave for 5 minutes, reinsert and see if it restarts. Please keep that it plugged into the wall charger during this operation.

If it does not restart the device, see this: How to reload your OS Blackberry10

  • BlackBerry smartphone security wipe with any BIS - bbm

    Hi guys, I've changed my blackberry for an iphone, so I cancelled my BIS and changed my tarrif plan towards an iphone one. I removed the SIM card, so the phone says insert sim card and SOS signal. I then went through and deleted my bbm contacts after it made a complete security wipe, and I came back to the blackberry. It went well and everything was clear.

    But a couple of my friends said im still on BBM out there but when contact lists they me message that they get an 'X' red beside the message were it should be a D or R. I was wondering how I'm still on lists here if I deleted all the and safety wiped? Is it because I did it when there was no ENCORE for the blackberry could not send data on the servers of remove me contacts? If so what will happen when the next person gets my phone and BIS it will automatically synchronize what I did and remove me from my friends BBM?

    Help, please

    Thank you

    Right, red x means that the message has not been sent because the contact does not exist. If she sent the message, the friend would simply see a message sent without D or R beside the message. If the messages have been received by the other device, it would show a D as delivered, but of course the message is not delivered to your old BlackBerry.

  • BlackBerry smartphone security wipe on bb curve 8520

    Hello everyone, I had a question about the erasure of BlackBerry security.

    I wonder if during the erasure of security ('emails, conctats etc.' and 'user installed applications' checkboxes checked) my sms messages will be deleted...

    I have to take my camera to a friend, do you find security secure erase?

    Yes, security wipe is the sure way to rid your system of all it's data. Do not remove the installed user applications as the wipe will erase the data in applications, but not applications. However, you can delete the user installed applications if you wish.

  • Recovery of blackBerry Smartphones to wipe it accidental loss of data

    I use a Blackberry Bold 9700 with corporate email server.    Company applies a window 5 minutes before the beginning of password.

    Today I took out my phone and there is no password entry, but my contacts and a phone log is empty, I can not access the SMS, MMS messages and my work emails all say

    My hypothesis is that I somehow "seizure Pocket" 10 bad passwords and caused a security wipe.

    I reported this to my company and they told me to activate the corporate email server once again and gave me an activation code.    I entered my work email and the code and selected activate.  Then, I get a white screen.   Its been about an hour, so I think that something does not work.

    I noticed that there is a place for a "the activation server address" in the "activation code".     Is this something that I need to get the company?    I see that in the original activitation ticket all they gave me was the activation code.

    suggestions?

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    You may or may not need... see this KB:

    •  KB14449 What is the scope of the activation server address

    What I suggest is that work you with your BES admins because they are they really in control. You can wipe your BB again and then re - try activation.

  • BlackBerry smartphone security wipe, lack of features

    Hi people,

    Has just been given a Curve 8520 by my son, lucky me. When he gave it to me, he had all of its parameters to another network and wifi. So I thought it would be easier to do a thorough cleaning and start a new one.

    However, since doing so I have no e-mail setup and no option to update software or wifi. "" I tried to download the new software, but it happens in the ' Check for updates screen "and goes no further. I have to close and restart the computer. I left it running for more than 3 hours thinking that it can work, but nothing helped. I tried with the desktop running and without, with and without sim card software.

    Someone has any ideas

    Hello

    It is also likely that these features are absent because the device must be connected to the BlackBerry network.  Go to Options > Advanced Options > host Routing Tables, press the BB Menu key and select Save now.  Who will be re - register your device on the network BlackBerry and should download the necessary info to get your device will.  Be aware that you will have a BlackBerry data plan on your device to do this, so be sure that it is set up in advance.  If this is not the case, contact your carrier to do it for you.

    Once this is done, you may also send your service books.  The steps above should display your e-mail settings, and once it goes to the e-mail settings, connect to BIS (if necessary), press the BB Menu key and select Service books.  You can then return your Service books.

    Note: If this still does not work, you may need to reload the OS.  If you must go this route try the procedure described here:

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry to take apart and put back together.

    No, I don't mean remove the physical device.

    My company (finally) made me a Blackberry (Bold 9650) so I could learn to do things like it backup, restore and so immediately and (better) to provide technical support for others.

    So, I would like to know:

    1. how to back up my Blackberry?

    I have e-mails, contacts and appointments calendar and your Internet favorites.

    Would I need (as I believe...) to connect the device to a computer via a USB cable and somehow save these items on the computer?

    Is it a synchronization for this software?

    2 restoration

    I guess I want to reverse the process above.

    3 secure wipe

    Some time ago, in another section, I was told that it would probably be necessary, if a Blackberry into a movement of one BES/BPS server to another, to wipe the device and then turn it back on.

    Wipe the unit would, I guess, delete the personal data, hence the master back to the top and restore operations.

    What a wipe erases exactly (and what don't we not delete)?

    4. What is (re) activation after a wipe?

    Wiping the Blackberry does include eliminating the activation information (I guess for that), it seems that I have to reactivate with my ISP (Verizon, in my case), correct?

    Now, I won't do this 3 times a week, every week, but can I reactivate my Blackberry as I want? I just call Verizon like I did at the beginning?

    Hello

    Yes, the subject line is a little off the mark! I'm afraid that some people may not even venture into your thread accordingly. However...

    Hmmm... I'm not sure on the migration of one BES to the other, but I know that a WIPE has no effect on the it policy. I don't know if the migration to an another BES replaces the policy of IT or not. Nevertheless:

    Reactivation as with the carrier. For the Association, is a lack of prejudice no-fault to reactivate with them. Simply dial * 228 and select Option 1 (then again and select Option 2). You don't really have to call and talk to them because your BB is fully registered on their network the first time you activate... on CDMA networks, there is much more "hardcoded" into the network (where the greatest difficulty taking CDMA devices and use them on another CDMA network).

    I hope this helps!

    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.
