BlackBerry Smartphones removing storm SIM - how?

Similar Questions

• BlackBerry smartphones remove the Sim Card from storm

  How do you 'delete' the SIM of the storm? I know that the battery has been removed. I tried to delete it, but seems to be stuck? I looked into the Blackberry site, but it does specify that on installation there. The SIM is uder a metal clip, I can "move". No problem with the phone or the sim card, but maybe later, that perhaps I need to remove it. Thank you.

  Maybe I have use a small screwdriver and try to lift the clamp metal, to see if that helps, too. Thank you.

• BlackBerry Smartphones active new SIM - now phone SOS only

  Hi all. Have a little problem. I had to go back to an old 9700 When my current iPhone broke. I needed a new card SIM from the iPhone using a different card. When I called Rogers to activate the SIM everything was fine for about a minute. I received texts that were pending since Sunday when my iPhone broke. I had full bars etc. Once a minute, he went to SOS only. While I was on the phone with Rogers Tech Support I have reset and removed the battery and SIM and all the things they wanted me to. Everything looks good on their system, he said that the problem must be with the device.

  A bit on the device:

  Originally with Mobilicity in 2009. Opened and used with the wind. My father then used with Rogers and Fido. Since Sunday, when my phone broke, I used SIM card of my brother-in-law (he just swung at Rogers to the wind, but his plan has always been paid until the end of September) and the BB worked very well. If it worked correctly with a Rogers SIM.

  Now, I get the same problem with my brother-brother SIM. SOS only. No connection. What happened when active Rogers SIM card must have done something to the camera itself because now it does not connect to any of them. That both SIMs work as I have tested both in my wife's phone.

  The guy on the Support of Rogers suggested that perhaps the closed phone itself - but when I enter the settings advanced for the SIM card that everything is disabled in customization... so it appears not to be locked.

  He said that I should try to reinstall the OS, but that it will block the phone and I need to unlocked again.

  Is there anything else it could be? Will reinstall the OS relock the phone? Any other suggestions?

  Thank you very much!

  First this... avoid this tech Rogers like the plague. He has no idea what he's talking about. All what he told you is simply not possible. Once MEP unlocked, a BB device can blocked at the factory. Nothing of what you have done or the facilities of any OS can relock a BB.

  I'd rather a complete security on the Device Wipe:

  • KB14058 How to delete all data and applications in the smartphone BlackBerry using the security option wipe

  Otherwise, a ResetToFactory WIPE:

  • KB31291 How to reset a BlackBerry smartphone to factory using BlackBerry Desktop Software Settings

  After each one, put it in the SIM card and switch on the device, and then make sure that the voice is through Rogers. Only then start to worry about getting all the data to work (if you subscribe BIS, in other words).

  If you want to get off the OS Reload path, then the easiest way is, on a PC (you can not do this on MAC):

  (1) make sure that you have a current backup and your BB complete... you can find the instructions at the link in my auto-sig below. (not applicable in your situation)

  2) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,

  (3) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

  • http://us.BlackBerry.com/software/desktop.html

  (4) download and install on your computer, the BB OS package you want:

  • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
  • If all you want are the levels of BONE, it is first sorted by carrier - the carrier supports, your search will be fast. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To really get the package up-to-date OS for your BB, you need to dig through and find all businesses that support your specific model BB and then compare the BONE levels they support.

  5) remove all copies of the SELLER on your PC. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

  • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
  • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

  6 (a) to change your level of BB OS installed (at level or lower), you can run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC.

  6 (b) or, for recharging your BB OS level installed as well to change, work around the Desktop software and use the CHARGER. EXE directly, through step 2 in this process:

  • http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/BlackBerry-device-software/how-to-reload-your-operating-syste...
  • Note Although written to "recharge" and the storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade or recharge any BB device model - depends on the operating system package you download and install on your PC.

  If, during the process of 6a or 6 b, your BB has an error '507', simply unplug the USB of the BB cord and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue.

  You can also study the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe what he is capable.

  You can also try the "skeleton OS Reload procedure" in an attempt to circumscribe the precise causal element:

  1. Load your OS "bare bones"... If everything is optional, do not install it.
  2. If the behavior is immediately, then try another OS with step 1
  3. If the behavior does not immediately, then run for as long as necessary to make you to be sure that the behavior will not occur.
  4. Add one more thing - no matter how tempting, one.
  5. If the behavior does not immediately present, and then runs for long enough to be sure he won't have the same problem
  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are responsible or the behavior presents

  When the behavior shows up, you know the culprit... the last thing you have loaded.

  If the behavior doesn't re-present, then you know that step 1 or 2 cured it.

  If the behavior has anything, then you have probably a problem of material level for which no amount of OS or software can heal.

• BlackBerry smartphones remove security settings of 8820 without access to PC

  I recently acquired a 8820, but I can't remove the security settings.  I'm currntly do not have access to a PC to connect the device to.  is there a way to delete the settings?  Thank you.

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  Exactly what 'security settings' you are asking about? Only these words, there are a lot of possibilities...

  My guess - if your BB has a policy due to have been associated with a BES environment

  • KB30076 How to check for an it on a BlackBerry smartphone policy

  and if you want that political removed, then see this KB:

  • KB14202 How to remove a policy from IT to a BlackBerry smartphone

  You will notice that methods 1, 2 and 3 require the admin BES to do something... If you are no longer associated with the BES, then these methods do not work, which leaves... method 4 not requiring connection to a PC.

  On the other hand, if I guessed wrong, then please specify exactly what 'Security Settings' you're curious about.

  Thank you and let us know!

• BlackBerry Smartphones use Storm 2 as PDA WiFi-Connected (without telephone service)?

  RESOLVED:
  See the second post in this thread for the solution (thanks to wiggler forum member)

  ORIGINAL MESSAGE:

  [I know I am a "retarded" for even bringing this place, but we'll just go beyond the part and talk about what I really want to know here ]

  My wife and I went to an Android (Bionic) for me and an iPhone (4 s) for her. However, his old phone (Storm 2) has recently been replaced because his former 1 storm went wrong on her... and now, since my father thought finally get something to replace his old (not to mention, broken and unusable) Palm device, we thought we might as well give him the Storm 2 and see if it'll work out for what he wants.

  Here's the deal about my father and his PDA... already has a cell phone, so he won't move up to a smart phone, because he does not want to pay the extra money every month just to get a PDA phone when he probably never really use the data service much and all that.

  He wants a phone just to be a phone, and he also wants a PDA... just for the PDA part.

  So, I thought, very well... If he is not willing to move completely in the modern era, then we can at least give him something he can synchronize with Outlook (it works... I already tried) to have its calendar and contacts with him all the time (which it is not able to do with his simple mobile).

  So what I know is that it's possible, at least in a very limited sense... I have the Storm 2 sync with Outlook.
  However, here's my problem... for a reason, even if the wifi card appears to connect to the wifi here in their home access point, it is not actually get an IP address and can't get out on the internet with the browser integrated into all.

  My question is this...
  Is it because it is not possible (i.e. RIM has configured to disable the card wifi within the unit while there is no mobile phone service connected), or who should run, and I should watch more in the sense of something wrong at the level of the home network?

  The reason why I think that it could be something awkward like that within the device itself, it is my new Android and iPhone of the wife are able to connect to the network wireless home here very well.

  Sorry for such a long thing, goofy needs help, but I thought it is a good starting point. If anyone has ideas and is willing to help, please chime.

  p.s. I am a computer scientist. So I have that aspect covered... at least you do not work with a complete * beep * if you jump here.

  I thought about it. I did a search on google for the specific message I saw in 'wi - fi tools' (which was "no longer valid"ip address ") and found this thread...
  http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/other-BlackBerry-smartphones/IP-address-no-longer-valid/TD-p/...

  The second post there (from wiggler), gave me the fix I need.
  Thank you!  :-)

• BlackBerry smartphones remove old Inbox folder

  Hi all. How can I delete the old folder Inbox an e-mail account that I deleted from my phone?

  Well yes - I think we have all seen those. They are indeed latent. Here's a knockout who treats a form of them:

  • KB18940 Duplicate subfolders are displayed when you select view folders within the Messages icon on the BlackBerry smartphone

  In most cases, they are simply there. Reloading the operating system and then return the directories of current service reported sometimes to get rid of them. In most cases, they are just to be ignored.

  Good luck!

• BlackBerry Smartphones BB Storm keeps removing my Outlook calendar

• BlackBerry Smartphones used BB Curve, how to remove the previous E-mail addys

  Hello! I bought a used BB curve and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to remove the e-mail address of owners at the previous address. When I compose a message he asks me what email I want to send from and he has my address and 2 of the former owners of e-mail addresses. When I look in different folders there only my email address listed to delete or change. Any ideas?

  To remove the previous owners email ID

  1. go to Options
  2. Advanced options
  3. Service books
  4. Highlight the E-mail ID that you want to remove
  5. Click on the Menu
  6. Select Remove

• BlackBerry Smartphones that someone know how to do my old blackberry curve 8900 work with my new sim card that was put in place on my 9360?

  I hate my new blackberry 9360 he never gave me a days chore and I want to use it for the rest of my contract as the 9360 is just a pain and full of problems and no matter what I do, I can't do another phone despite the fact that I am a high spender with fidelity over 10 years to my provider.  I don't want to use a fixed second hand phone.  the reason why we're getting a new phone is the focus again.

  Return to using a phone good - please do some more blackberrys like the old 8900 as it is a robust and reliable phone.
