BlackBerry Smartphones setting SMS alerts

Hi all

I've been using my new Blackberry "BOLD" now for about a day and would like to ask a quick question. When I receive a text message SMS to a contact, it will bleep and then I see a very small envelope icon on my screen. Is it possible that I can have the message pop up on the screen and it then displays the name of the sender? That is to say me to tell my friend Joe Bloggs text, is possible to get 'Joe Bloggs' or 'Joe Bloggs new message' etc. on the screen?

Any help would be most appreciated.

Thank you

Thanks to you, if you need anything else, just after, you are welcome.

Please mark the threas has been resolved, is better for users with the same issue.

  • BlackBerry smartphones change SMS alert tone

    Hey, I'm pretty new on my BlackBerry 8130 and don't know how to change the alert sound for each individual type of the message, such as SMS, emails and voicemails. Any information or direction on this would be appreciated! Thank you

    Find the setting under 'Profile' on your phone, then once selected go to "Advanced" and then under Advanced, click 'Menu' on the profile that you want to change and there you can change ANY tone/notification/ringtone/etc on this profile.

  • Problem blackBerry Smartphones with SMS notification on my 9780

    My Bold 9780 has started reading my SMS messages aloud. It's very irritating, especially if I'm sitting in a meeting!

    He only reads TEXT messages and emails not.

    I know I must have changed a parameter by mistake, I can't find this function in the menus to turn it off.

    Can anyone help please?

    Hello becon1417

    To clarify, when you receive a new text message he read your text message, to the right!

    If it is then can you confirm if you have installed any 3rd party app that does this, you Homescreen go to Options > device > application > locate and delete such a request.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones 9320 SMS is not received

    Recently (for the last month or almost) my curve blackberry 9320 received no texts, I do not think a lot that I use my BBM more than I text so I just thought that people were not to contact me, but then I asked someone text me, I saw that they sent and he had delivered, but my phone has never notified me of the received message I went into the folder of text messages, and nothing is found, the text I had just been sent, I can send text easily and they are delivered successfully to others but I can not just receive texts, I even texted me (Sad I know), but the phone said they had delivered but I never received them I tried battery pull, pull out my card sim for a while (30 minutes) and then to restart my phone, nothing... It's weird because I've never had this problem before.

    I contacted my service provider and this has baffled them also because they could not help and did not know what it is, has anyone here ever had this problem?

  • BlackBerry Smartphones 9330 "SMS error 0, general problems. Can't send text messages

    My Blackberry 9330 cdma has been great work over the past 7 months.  From Friday 22 November, I can no longer send text messages.  I can receive texts, but every time I try to send a text I get the error message following the General problems""(SMS erreur 0, ID de Message XX). "

    I was using my phone as usual, sent the texts in the morning, but in the evening, I was unable to send a text with success to anyone.

    I have contacted my provider and they did not receive one of the error messages on the network, and there is no power outages in my area (I tried to send other areas of the city too).  I have pulled the battery to reset, deleted the data from the phone, reset all connections... all to nothing does not.  The issue seems to be with the blackberry.

    I'd appreciate any help or advice anyone can give me.

    Thank you

    It is usually a network problem if you have not any setting or update any software on the device. I contact your carrier and bring them to escalate your case through their support channels.

  • BlackBerry smartphone email & SMS - silencer

    Hello

    Please can someone help me with a prblem that makes me crazy? For some reason any my "BOLD" has ceased to be the usual noise to warn me of an incoming message or a SMS. Until the last two days, it was fine. Phone still rings as usual for incoming calls.

    I am on the "Loud" setting profile and have checked the 'strong' settings, which for all email on my phone and SMS addresses, are as follows:

    out of Holster: vibrate and tone

    ringtone: notifier_lightspeed

    volume: top

    number of beeps: 3

    etc...

    It's the same with my old 8800 and I could never repair it on this phone either (I assumed it was down to old age!)

    All opinions are appreciated...

    simply reset the unit by pulling on the battery the penalty is one more and reinsert.

    If the question back again, please reload/upgrade to the latest version of the software combined.

  • BlackBerry smartphones set up the e-mail on my 9320

    Hello

    Hello and welcome to the community

    You must enter any of the configuration section 'Enterprise '. Rather use the BB exclusive services (including the ability to Push email, BBM, etc), you must have an adequate data of your carrier plan. Carriers BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) host for their BB users. In general, BIS is not available through generic data plans. Several ships make stop what is needed the Blackberry data plan. Whatever they call it, it is the carrier that delivers BIS users of BB - contact - the for assistance. Once you have an email Push-enabled compatible BIS data plan on your BB (fees regardless of your carrier will charge, btw), your exclusive services BB will work (for example, you will have a staff/Internet Email added to the email Setup Wizard, your BBM will work, etc.).

    With hundreds of carriers in the world, each with dozens of different data plans it is impossible to say that any plan service could actually expressly provide for. Only carriers can answer this question. The best thing to do is to decide what services you want and then talk to your carrier about obtaining a data plan that allows what you want (to them).

    Good luck!

    Just got a new bb cannot set up Guard email saying not connected to the internet! Loaded the bbm R59 MTN prepaid guest on hold awaiting authorization. Help, please!

    Do you have a data Plan BlackBerry enabled on your account with your carrier or mobile provider?

    You have to, to get the push RIM email functions you are looking for, as well as services of BlackBerry data such as the Web browser, Facebook for BlackBerry, BlackBerry Messenger and much more.

    Then call your carrier and you learn about to have added to your account BlackBerry data Plan.

    Good luck.
