• BlackBerry Smartphones mass storage problem

  Hey guys,.

  I've been going through google for the last hour or so trying to find a solution to this, but I think I actually found a unique situation. Probably not so Im hoping someone here can help.

  I bought a 4 GB Micro SD SDHC memory card for my phone from amazon.co.uk

  I checked compatibility and according to amazon it seems to work with practically all the 8300, 8100 and new models.

  OS on my phone is 4.5.0.163

  OS is Xp SP3

  Director of office v6 (the one with the black gui)

  My problem is the following:

  I connected my phone to my pc via the usb cable, the software loaded but claims it cannot detect the memory card. I checked in the 'Media Card' window on my phone and it says:

  Media card support: on

  Encryption mode: Off

  Mode Mass Storage Support: on

  Turn on Mass Storage automatic when connected: fast

  Total area: 3.6 GB

  Free space: 3.6 GB

  Its a new card fresh on the box, never been used.

  The phone seems to be picking up, but the software is not.

  With the Auto activate together to "ask", "Connecting to the office" message flashes on the screen of my phone. He of coming for a second then turns off then upward once again and he made it 3 - 4 times before it finally goes back to base Office of phones with no prompt to come.

  When I put the enable auto on "yes" the "connecting to office" message arrives and remains standing, but I still cant transfer all the music on my phone and that's the only reason why I bought the card.

  Any information would be greatly appreciated.

  OK, after doing some experiments with the software Ive got it works!

  I simply uninstalled the DM V6 and installed V4.6, and now it works fine.

  Putting music on the BB as we speak for the bus ride tomorrow ^^

  So yeh my dose is if your using V4.5.0.163 of the software install and use office v4.6 Manager downloaded from the blackberry homesite as I did =)

• BlackBerry Smartphones mass storage device: what!

  Hello

  When I plug my BB on the USB port to load I get a pop-up on the BB asking me if I want to turn on mass storage mode.  What do this exactly?  I always select "no".

  I have a 8 GB card in it, if that helps.

  Thank you!

  It's just a matter if you want to be able to see the memory card on the computer (so you can add or remove files it contains).

  You can find more information about it here:

• BlackBerry Smartphones Mass Storage error message

  I have a 8 GB msd card in the 8320, mass storage is on, but when I access the phone via Roxio media manager, it the message "Please activate the Stoge mass on your device in Mode" Mithril. Tried on and outside, nothing. I can see the storage memory phones. There are pictures of the camera stored on the card, I can see from the phone. Also I can not see the phone via the XP Explorer.

  All other synchronization functions seem to work.

  Thanks for the answers but not resolved the problem. I found the answer on another forum and will post did it here because this is a common problem.

  The phone (which was new out of the box T - Mobile 30 December 2008) doesn't have the correct operating system for T-Mobile. The version of the phone was 4.0.X (very old - makes me wonder about the history of the phone) and the Media Manager software was also 4.1.X - the version required for Desktop Manager is 4.6.x and for the version phone 4.5.x

  You must first install the correct desktop to your manager, then open that and install the new operating system for the phone (takes a few hours), then you must re-enable all e-mail accounts and programs, as well as the phone itself.

  Questions which fixed the upgrade:

  Card Media access

  Media Manager

  Sync

  Address book

  and many other things.

  Now, if someone has a suggestion for a good media manager that works with the Blackberry, I would be really glad the Roxio is a Devourer of memory and is clumsy and slow. BlackBerry needs to find a better partner.

  My last words - why with a new phone, I can't this Council for support of BB? I guess that there is no support.

  I created my password to unlock the phone to the reduced keyboard layout, and my son had the phone to the standard QWERTY layout, after which it is automatically disabled.  now, I can not in my phone because I do not know the keys corresponding to the QWERTY.  I can't find a screenshot or image of the layout of the keyboard options in any guide anywhere.  any help anyone? or, who should I contact to get my password reset.

  I'm still confused, but here's the order for the multitap keyboard from left to right (between the two bars are breaks as well as numbers in blue are the numbers that appear if you press the number selector)).  It's so, it appears on my Storm, but it should be the same on the torch.

  1 .,!? | 2 ABC | 3 DEF

  4 GHI | 5 JKL | 6 MNO

  7 PQRS | 8 TUV | 9 WXYZ

  * :;() | 0 space. # aA (caps)

  123 | SYM | Remove | Come in

  On the SureType keyboard, it's as follows:

  QW | ER | TY | USER INTERFACE | OP

  ACE | DF | GH | JK | L

  ZX | CV | NL | M | delete

  !? 123 | SYM | space | aA (caps). Come in

  yo mean USB storage?  Ask yourself if the Priv supports USB OTG?

  Yes it does, but compared to the Passport, I think you need to install an application to app/filemanager OTG since the playstore first.

• BlackBerry Smartphones Mass Storage device not recognized...

  I am running Windows XP (Media Center Edition) and at the time where I was using a 8320, I didn't have this problem... but now that I have a 8330, my computer does not recognize the MicroSD card, I got plugged into my phone. It's literally the same card that was in the 8320, and otherwise everything else works perfectly.

  It is listed as an unknown in my Device Manager device, specifically as a "RIM Composite Device".

  * I already uninstalled the drivers of BB on my computer and reinstalled them.

  * I already uninstalled DM and reinstalled - not that I thought he would do anything, but it was worth it.

  * I went to the Microsoft support site and tried to use the drivers they have there.

  * I tried to disable the driver in my device manager and tried to force XP to recognize the device. No dice.

  UH... that's all! Any suggestions?

  Just an update to this issue.
   
  It is not really a solution, but I am sick of XP Media Center Edition, so I did a complete reformat of my laptop and installed XP Pro (as the words of God!) Long story short, my computer is recognizing the card support very well now. I can only assume there was some parameter of the register or glitch in my MCE that prevented the drivers to work as they should.
   
  Anyway, solved! Thanks for the help!

  Hello!

  There are three types of potential memory on a BB: 1) application memory, the device memory) 2 and 3) Media/SD Card Memory.

  Application memory - it is the most important; It is protected (not available to the user), dedicated and (fixed size) space as the destination for the installation of applications (more a few storage applications, overhead and other costs). You can't touch AppMemory. You cannot improve the maximum AppMemory that your BB has. It is what it is. Applications can install only here... There is no other choice.

  The device memory - it is space on your BB you can touch these files, images, media, etc. In general, it is not very big, but it is available.

  Memory card SD/Media- is what it says... your SD card to store files, media, photos, etc.. It can be as large as your BB OS can support... see this KB:

  • KB05461 Sizes of card MicroSD taken in charge by the BlackBerry device software

  On some devices/OS levels, you can see 'Free file' (Options > status), I think this is equivalent to AppMemory. You can see on other devices, all the memory usage levels three (Options > memory). Here are some tips to use:

  • KB02843 What is the function of low memory manager on the BlackBerry smartphone
  • KB14320 How to maximize space and power battery life on the BlackBerry smartphone
  • KB14213 Call logs, SMS text and email messages are deleted from the BlackBerry smartphone

  Finally, it is always important to correctly close applications when you are finished with them. Using the back or on the red button won't do that - those leave the app to decide what to do... and some let themselves memory-resident, consumes resources on your BB, slowing down the overall performance. On the contrary, to close an application, tap on and select 'Close' or 'Quit'... which force the application to be closed, freeing resources for your new use it consumed. Some applications will always be running (in general - BBMessenger, browser, homescreen, phone and Messages)... but, you should always close them properly - especially the browser... If we leave on a web page, it will not consume only additional resources, but the power of the battery as well.

  In addition, 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. Some have taken to do this on a regular basis as a preventive measure... some as often as once a day. Others got the app QuickPull to automate a simulated Batt Pull.

  Good luck!

• Storage of applications for blackBerry Smartphones

  Hey everyone... I use my 9790 bold, he repeats to me my memory to applications is 512 MB internal memory of the phone's 8 GB! So is there anyway to increase this limited storage for applications? In addition, this space does not increase if I use an external MicroSD memory?
