• BlackBerry Smartphones BB Maps and other issues

  Hi all

  I have a few questions about GPS on the storm. I use Google Maps for GPS, but I noticed that without a signal (on very remote locations where the signal from the phone is very low), I can't use Google maps. My first question is, the GPS on the storm depends on the signal from the phone?

  Also, I tried to download maps of BB, but I get the 'funny' opinion: "sorry, your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed for the suport BB Maps. My storm running the last update, what makes this mean agree? Is it possible that I can not download maps because I am in South America?

  Finally, while playing music, I don't repeat just a single song (over and over again, until I get tired of it..) I can't find the way, given that the repeat option only works for a playlist or album.

  A lot of questions! Thank you in advance for your help!

  See you soon!

  Hi and welcome to the forums!

  Regards the print under the download button on the mobile site.

  "Blackberry maps is available on mobile devices under Device Software v4.1 and 4.2.x.

  So basically, the OTA version is for older versions of the OS device. That's why you got the error.

  Also, I had read information about Blackberry Maps on the cover.

  I don't see South America on the list.

  Thank you

• BlackBerry Smartphones Invalid email and password on blackberry 9790

  I have been using everything ok through POP3 email on my blackberry for the last six months and then all of a sudden yesterday asked me to check the password that I tried to do it but the only message I get, is that my user name or password is invalid.  This is not the case, as I am with the same username and password on outlook and my Ipad and these work perfectly. Can anyone help?

  We had a problem with our email on Wednesday, it is now sorted and the passwords have not been changed.

  I tried the hard reset, tried to set up online service, free books works and still will not accept the good user name and the password.  It's driving me crazy!

  Thank you.

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  With a strong carrier network (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.

  Good luck!

• BlackBerry smartphones address email and password

  My Blackberry Torch was stolen recently.  Now that I got my new camera and everything seemed to work OK.  I received emails addressed to it and who is "pushed".  I tried to download an app and had my Blackberry ID need I entered.  She would not accept my new password - so I asked to reset - but the email they were supposed to be sent to my blackberry address did not!  Does anyone have ideas, what can I do now?

  Oh okay Ouch, the using the blackberry.net email account is not good. These emails cannot be found or read any where, but on the BlackBerry smartphone.

  Personally, I never recommend using blackberry.net for this main reason e-mail accounts.

  My best suggestion is to get a gmail or yahoo account for free and create a whole new BlackberryID.

  Then, call your mobile operator Orange and ask them to bring this problem to RIM level two level tech support and get your old account merged or moved to the new BlackBerryID.

  Yes, it's complicated. But it's the only way I see possible... all this because of the password reset. Yuck, indeed.

  Re: Disabling BES of the handheld

  After his contacts on the PC, I'll make sure that you have installed 4.7 DTM and go to the command line

  type: cd c:\program files Research in motion\apploader enter

  type: enter loader.exe /resettofactory

  This should remove the policy from IT previous of the device and wipe the device then you can resync everything back to the device.

• BlackBerry Smartphones 10 problems and issues for the 8220

  Hiya,

  I got to a point where I'm a little more frustrated on my new phone that actually enjoy it, my previous phone was a XDA Orbit running on WM5, as such, I guess I've come to expect much more than phone that's good for me...

  I just got an upgrade of the O2, and since the "BOLD" was not in stock, I was sent this one.

  Anyway, here goes:

  1 SMS Message-files: is there a way I can create folders for my messages? Say, for example: "SAVED-Bob", "SAVED-Steve", etc.? At the moment I don't have a main folder of the SMS display everything and really, I don't want to save the messages in the folder "Saved messages" under "Applications".

  2 deleting multiple messages: according to the help by pressing alt while rolling on the messages of selects messages that I want to, then pressing the menu key, I would need to select 'delete selected messages '. Well, this doesn't seem to work. If I press the alt key everything I have will achieve is the trackball goes to the top or the bottom of the messages. Could someone point me in the right direction?

  3 emails sent: why are there no 'sent' folder? I expect that, with a blackberry (which is supposed to be an office-e-mail-phone), I have a kind of box to send and sent?

  memory card 4: How can I use it? The only reasonable explanation I got the phone I got a memory card has been when I took a picture and he told me that they would be stored on the MicroSD card. But how can I as a user accessing it? How can I create folders there? How can I save items such as notes out there? And if I set up a folder on the memory card with a number of word documents, PDF files and text notes, how do I access them?

  5. Security: how lock folders such as messages or send an email (let's say for the sake of the argument I want to use the same password for each of them) so that whenever I want to access my SMS messages, I need to enter a code?

  6 editing: how can I change an image after I took it to a smaller size? I used TwitterBerry to upload a picture, I just took my twitter account, but it's just sitting there, download the image (which was a 1600 x 1200 image) for about 10 minutes (with connected WiFi) and did nothing.

  7 overview of the message: I don't want to see the message on my phone! There is no way I can just display the "New Message" icon with the sender, but not preview of the message on the screen when the phone is closed?

  8 Trackball problems: the trackball does not seem to be sitting at 100% in the middle of the cavity, instead of this he is squinted slightly to the right. It is not a huge problem, but if I see a white light shining through on the left, not the right I don't really think that it is a "function". It works and everything, but it does not appear correctly / right

  9 hinge a little wobbly? The hinge has a little movement when closed (not opening), is a movement of 2mm normal?

  10 backup complete phone: can I perform a full backup of my 8220 using any piece of software (the software that comes with it has not yet touched) completely back up my phone and contacts for a simple import into another Blackberry should I need to come back to this one for ad #8 #9?

  Thank you all so much for your time and your help on this, I would really appreciate the phone, but for now I can't and I have already spent so much time import my contacts correctly I don't really want to consider changing phones...

  Hi and welcome to the forums!

  (1) Sms messages. You can go to the queue, options, General, options scroll down

  SMS AND email inboxes: Select distinct. You will have a record for you SMS messages.

  There is not a way to save the user, I know.

  (2) for 'gang' remove hold down SHIFT and defiler scroll messages, and then press DELETE.

  You can also scroll to the date line, select menu deletes before. This will remove all messages before

  on the date indicated.

  (3) Please indicate if you are setting up that BES (server) or BIS (telephone).

  (4) memory card. The media files that you can put on the media card will save the memory of your device. Most

  the device memory smooth your BB will run. The easiest way to manage files and data on the media

  card is to use the USB cable to access the PC and BB. Open windows 'MY Computer', will come the media card

  like a flash drive. You can then load the files in the directories right through the 'drag and drop '.  If you have a software for device OS 4.5 you have docs to go. This contains word and excel and powerpoint. For a good answer on how to use it, check out this link to read the Post of JERRYD:

  http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/Rim/Board/message?board.ID=8300&message.ID=22720#M22720

  (5) you cannot lock individual records. Password, you can protect the unit.

  (6) in the camera go to options, select photo size: large, medium, small selection.

  (7) to change the external display options:

  http://www.BlackBerry.com/BTSC/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB16014&sliceId=SAL_Pub...

  8 + 9) you would have to compare with the other 8220 to see if this is a normal phenomenon, I have no access to

  a 8220.

  (10) Yes, use desktop software manager to create a backup of your phone. You can either restore

  the backup on the new phone, or use the wizard to transfer between two Blackberry switch device

  phones. This should be in the user manual.

• Forgotten blackBerry Smartphones login email and password?

  I forgot the login and the password for my new BB Curve 9300.  When I ask for help with my password, it takes me to a question of password that I also forgot the answer to.

  Hello suesheldon,

  Assuming that you are talking about a BlackBerry ID, you have only a few options.

  1 remember the password / security issues heh.
  2. If you have the original email sent when you created your ID, you can use the link inside to remove the ID email address and create a new.
  3. you can create a new one with a different e-mail address.
  4. you can call your provider and try to climb on BOARD so they can reset your password.

  Hope this helps,

  2 send your service from your carrier's BIS site books:

• BlackBerry Smartphones ringtone incoming and its sound call all get silent automatically

SO every time I have to turn off mobile and remove the battery and restart the phone again, for a while everything works fine, but after a few hours, yet once shut up.

  Remove your battery while your phone is off will do nothing to help.  You must ensure that your phone is always on when you remove your battery.

  (And while you're here, please remove your e-mail address of your post.  Personal information, such as e-mail addresses, are not allowed in messages.)

  I hope that helps you.

• BlackBerry Curve 8330 Blackberry Smartphones: Spinning hourglass and no email

  I have a Blackberry Curve 8330 (about two months) on network VerizonWireless. Yesterday, I started to see a spinning hourglass that wouldn't go away, and now I can't receive emails. (I'm not on a customer business). The signal shows 1XEV connection and I see the ' up/down' arrows flashing periodically, but still no email comes through. All except the standard five applications are closed and I tried the option "remove the battery when the unit is running and wait a few minutes before plugging it back" does not. (The hourglass stopped for a few minutes, but came back and I'm still not received my email).

  STATUS

  Battery: 65%

  Free file: 34379991 bytes

  File total: 83623936 bytes

  Another challenge is that I use a Mac with OS X 10.4.11, not a PC based on Windows, so I don't have the software Manager to use.

  Can someone give me an option before taking this thing back to the store?

  Thank you

  m

  @rmaurer: I forgot to mention the battery drain, but the mine who did as well.

  The idea of 'everything back and get another' is never very satisfying for me. Especially if I have to keep doing it over and over again (like bobcawman, above), and he never really addresses the problem. If this is the case, then it seems that I bought a bad product, not only got a defective unit.

  The solution for me was to back up all my data by using the Desktop Manager, then reload the operating system of the VZW website software. The process was a bit complicated, and I'm sorry, I don't remember the exact steps to share here, but there is an option on the web site for the latest version of the software (4.5 for Verizon, I think). That solved the problem for me so far. I suppose however that the real question, why what is happening with so many people. I've seen many, many messages on exactly the same thing. I wonder if it's an issue just with the previous version of the software, or something more serious with the 8330 in general operating system.

  I'll wait and see...

• BlackBerry Smartphones appeal newspaper and send messages just disappeared

  I try to help my boss with a BlackBerry problem.  She's got a Curve 8310.

  For the first time, its log messages and email call suddenly disappeared.  I followed the instructions I've seen in other posts to find the free memory of reading space, which is currently at 6386939 bytes (after a hard reset).  Who is considered low?

  I deleted the unused languages.

  The cache of the browser was already at 0.

  I adjusted its parameters so that delete e-mails after 30 days (she had set at 2 months).

  The only non pre-installed application on the phone is Hanheld Contact, allowing it to synchronize wirelessly with our act! database.

  She has several pictures on his phone, and I don't think it synchronizes on the desktop, because she's not using it with Outlook (ACT! replaces Outlook).  I can do so that she can bring out of his phone, but is the only issue here of memory?

  Thank you in advance for your help!

  Wow, that's REALLY low. This number means that there are only 6 MB of free space. It is recommended to have at LEAST 15 MB of free space. Check under Options | Status, click the menu button, then choose the database sizes. What number is listed for total size at the top?

  If the content store is really big, it means that all the multimedia files (pictures, videos, etc.) are saved in the memory of the device rather than a media card. Your boss has a media card to store media?

  Have you also changed the setting keep appointments to something below as you did with the setting keep the Messages?

• BlackBerry Smartphones UK - mail and Windows Live Messanger

  Hello

  My first post here, but I got my BB a while, just never got roud to juggle with it and try to get the apps I want. First and foremost I want to mail and Windows Live Messanger for IMs, addressing Phones4U where I got my contract, they said I need to buy their email Plan to access Emails 'push' (at the moment I don't have an option for setting up my own email addresses). Just to confirm that this is true, if yes it would probably be more easy for me to buy just the increased data plan and access e-mail through hotmail.com (I don't sent them that much).

  However, I use MSN a lot. I tried to download AppsStore, I tried going to www.blackberry.com/messenger, and I tried to download from my PC via my USB wire into the phone. Every time that he told me that I meet the system requirements. When I go to 'About' on my BB it says I have a BB 8900 smartphone v4.6.1.76 (Platform 4.2.0.62) and my status says I have 112 mb of available storage.

  Y at - it something I am doing wrong? Should I be on a payment plan to access the app store? In addition, with MSN it charges you? I have unlimited SMS with my payment plan, but I should also use internet data extended as well?

  See you soon,.

  Alex

  Well, I know not what you mean by 'web n 'walk', but if you have no data plan and browse internet strictly via WiFi, so I think that you actually fail condition 4. If I am correctly Recalling, AppWorld must flow through a data plan as well as the income of everyone in the data stream (developer, Distributor, carrier, RIM, etc) can all be properly credited for sale (Yes, I know that some are free - but it's a sale nonetheless).

• Problems of synchronization to blackBerry Smartphones. Calendar and Outlook 2003

  Hello

  I'm new to the BlackBerry.

  I have trouble getting my unit to Outlook calendar entries. For years, I relied heavily on the possibility to do this flawlessly on my nokia.

  I looked through the forum on this issue and it seems that I'm not the only one, but none of the responses gave a solution.

  I read the http://bbry.lv/awQg9a article and found little assistance, but he did not answer why different entries are coming in different colors, but still confuse me, as follows:

  1. I use the v5.0.0.696 (platform 6.2.0.57) software on my phone.

  2. In the calendar options > select Calendar there are two calendars listed, default device (Blue square) and my gmail (squareGreen ) address, but when I add entries on the device, they are in the Red.  I have 1 entry into Blue, 500 + Green and several in the black.

  3. Advanced options > service on my phone book lists the gmail service, but not the service bureau, the page does not mention how to solve this problem!
  4. Advanced options > Default Services - calendar (CICAL) only lists my gmail account and cannot be changed to anything else.
  5. My phone uses an account BIS; but I can't find an option send using.

  Can someone please fix it or indicate where to find info?

  Thank you very much

  Jim

  In addition to the reading out of messages later, I came acroos one who said

  "I found a thread that said to go in your service (under"Advanced Options") books and remove all e-mail addresses with"Cical"after her. I just tried and it seems to work! »

  It worked for me too

• BlackBerry Smartphones recent update and now no screen saver

  (I recently yesterday) updated my software on my Blacberry Bold 9700.  Before update 2 function keys for standby (right if you look at the phone) and lock (left side) on the top just that fact with the lock button showing a screen saver until the screen become black after a break.  The phone lock button to access the screen saver function that comes with more downloadable themes.  It is now the screen turns off as if it is in standby mode.  The standby key has now no functionality.

  Is there a way to fix this?   I had a look through all the options and took a look at BB to help, but I don't see a way to assign or change the key features of locking.  I didn't really use the sleep button on the all so not worth it if I can't change that.

  (Sorry if this has already been answered elsewhere I was not sure what search term to use and 'screen saver' and 'pending' did not help at all.

  Yes, it has been asked and answered many times, and you wouldn't have around her as a "screen saver" like the BlackBerry doesn't really have any screen saver. What you're looking for is the "lock screen", and the function of the button mute on the upper part has changed, with the latest software updates, several months ago.

  Also, get what you want, you will need to have a password on the device.

  In otherwise, touch the top edge just puts the unit in standby mode.
