BlackBerry smartphones, restore default settings
How to restore the default settings and delete all personal information (e.g.: calendar, contacts, etc.) of my BB Bold 9650?
Read this article from RIM's Knowledge Base to reset your device to factory settings.
KB18998 How to reset a factory default BlackBerry smartphone
You can also go to Options > Security > Security wipe and follow the prompts to remove all personal information from the device.
I would like to do both if you get rid of the unit, sales, etc.
But, just for the heck of it, I also want to make a backup of the first, using the BlackBerry Desktop Software.

What is this app? Did you uninstall it already?
You can do a Security wipe on your device (this will remove ALL your data, a backup is important)
I suggest to fix the problem first before considering a security wipe.

BlackBerry smartphones format blackberry device to default settings
Hello
Anyone know how to format my BlackBerry smart phone to default settings (factory settings) without the use of software of Office Manager that I can't seem to connect to the software, but I only see my files as mass storage
I need HELP!
To really return to the default settings, you need your PC. See the instructions below.
If you just want to wipe your device of all personal data, preferences, contacts, calendar, etc., you can do it ON the camera itself in Options > Security > General settings > Menu key > wipe handheld computer function.
If you have problems to connect to Desktop Manager, it's a probably a PC problem, not a problem with the device. See more information below.

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!

For the blackBerry Smartphones Reset network settings
Hello
I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to reset the network settings on a Blackberry Curve 8520, I can find on how to do a complete reset but not a network reset. Your would be much appreciated.
Thank you very much

N.. completely different. For your mobile network, with a strong network carrier (for example, not only WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2, each should result in a message from your BB... Please wait just before moving on to the next step):
1) register HRT
- KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with wireless network
- Please wait a 'registration' message reach your Messages application
2) Remove and return Service books
- KB05000 Remove the maintenance book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account in the BlackBerry smartphone
- If you do not have access CMIME, continue deleting
- KB02830 Send the directories for the BlackBerry Internet Service
- Please wait "the Activation' Messages, one per already configured e-mail account, arrive in your Messages. If you have not already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) restart
- 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! If not, then you should try remove and re-add your configurations for the relevant accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile provider for formal support.
For the wireless, there is no sort directly 'reset' nothing beyond removing and reconfiguring of the WiFi network configurations. Beyond that, things as device WIPE, reloading the OS, and other very drastic measures would be required. And, important to note, I have no way of knowing if this is really necessary... you did not no matter what description of what happens, so it is not possible to understand your situation and you give more targeted recommendations.
Good luck!

BlackBerry Smartphones e-mail settings will not open
I was out of my service area of AT & T for the weekend and not allowed access to a 3 G network. When I came back, my e-mail folders does not open and the screen freezes. Is the only way to exit the screen to reset, but the e-mail folders will still not open. Any helpful thoughts?

Questions email blackBerry Smartphones by default - poster.148 upgrade
Update went without a hitch (other than to have to restore my backup the data manually - twice.) First time, no schedule data).
I have four e-mail accounts. I put my default Services in the messaging (CMIME) Options to the mailbox: XYZ.
When I send an email from any of the four accounts and leave the drop down at the top to
, it seems that my bb chooses an e-mail account to send the message. According to what I type in the TO: field, the outgoing account is selected vs. it being left by default. If I leave it at DEFAULT, I chose a TO:, and then the outgoing account may change to 123 instead of the default value of XYZ. Another email is sent to an address or a different contact and the outgoing is now ABC rather than left to default XYZ. Very weird.
Has battery pulls, books and Service verification options to the title of email accounts for basic Message e-mail settings - mail Services are the same as the default Services.
Ideas? Questions?
AGE
Hello!
If I understand you correctly, the device moves the account 'to' in which you send 'to '. Fix? If so, I believe that it is in fact a function - he remembers that account you last used as 'from' who 'to'... and automatically re - use it next time. Now, since you just updated, it may need some time to re - learn who ' of ' go with which "to of"... "
Or I'm wrong?

Hello
I have a problem to restore the factory setting for my blackberry.
I followed the instructions from KB18988 and it worked for everything, but the security settings.
Actually, my phone is still blocked by a password, and I can't remove password options as it is marked with a locked door icon.
Some applications like facebook, have limited features and some does not at all, as KOBO.
This "unremovable security settings" came when I activated my business account through the Blackberry Desktop Software.
Now, I don't want to go back and remove it.
I already tried several options:
KB18988
Application safe clean (wipe)
Get off at the first version of the firmware
Reinstall the desktop software
Still my phone is locked. I plan to sell to buy a torch, but I can't sell it as it is.
In fact, I tried from another computer than the one that I have synced my business account of.
Any suggestions? Please help, thanks in advance.

How to restore default settings for administrator permissions?
On my laptop, I am running Windows Vista Home Premium with all Service Packs, and recommended updates.
I messed up inadvertently administrator permissions so that I can't access, move, or delete certain folders / files. Please - how to restore the default permissions?There is no way to do it automatically. Restore the system to a point before that the amendments may help.
This article gives advice: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/313222
If you can open a command prompt (see: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Command-Prompt-frequently-asked-questions ), you may be able to use the Takeown command and icalcs to set the permissions to the usable values.
- Takeown http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753024 (WS.10) .aspx
- ICACLS http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753525 (WS.10) .aspx
You may need to compare the permissions on a system that works. The Sysinternals AccessChk and AccessEnum utilities can be useful.
