BlackBerry Smartphones SMS BBM contacts

Hey!

I noticed that SMS to contacts who are also added to my BBM have used to hide themselves after various periods - is possible to disable this feature a little boring at all? Thanks for any help!

Mike

Hey,.

I currently use the 5.0.1.41 version which I think is the most recent version available. If you haven't I highly recommend that you update the version installed on your phone. Before you do remember to backup all your contacts in case you need to restore your contacts. You can check your BBM version by opening your BBM and hiting Menu > about BlackBerry Messenger. Good luck!

    It comes from occurring as you face constraints of memory in your device. The low memory manager (LMM) is activated automatically when the flash available on the BlackBerry smartphone memory decreases less than 400 KB. Flash memory is used to store such as Messages, calendar, Contacts, tasks, Notepad BlackBerry smartphone applications and third-party applications.

    Perform the following steps-

    1. Give a soft reset by removing the battery for 30 sec.
    2. Check the amount of memory is free in your device to Options -> status -> free memory. To view all aspects of database go to Option -> status -> click on the Menu button and then select the database size

    In fact, I suspect that you use the same BB ID and not the same PIN. When the same BB ID is used on multiple devices, results exactly as you describe can happen.

    If you know the other person, you can chat with them and decide which of you will go through the painful process needed to remedy this situation:

You may also need a list of all your BBM contacts... If you're on BBM7, there is no way to condone those to restore after you are done as they are attached to your BBID, not your BB. If you are on pre-BBM7, then you can save and restore them. Otherwise, it will be a process of re-entry manual.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones SMS full Notification - help please

    I'm at my wits end with my Blackberry Torch 9810.  I have very little text messages in my Inbox, I lost the lot for some reason my phone has decided to change some date & in the future and trying to resolve that, in my opinion, I wiped everything, do not know what I did a few weeks ago, but they disappeared.

    Now I get notifications that my SMS Inbox is full and I need to delete messages.  Can someone help me I have a lot of messages on the handset and cannot believe it is complete unless there is an option I need to select/deselect.  The user guide is useless.

    I changed a parameter in the past as text messages seem to be endangered if they were in a month or so old, but all that I did I can't and don't know how to handle all my text messages myself.  My old iphone allowed me to keep the text as long messages I wanted with what appeared to be a very large storage area, now I just want to throw this thing in the bin.  Unfortunately I have 18 months remaining on my contract (business) so I can do nothing about it.

    OK, not a lot of people very little. It is in memory of the device, but you are some of the SIM card, save too much.

    Then... you must change this setting according to the instructions below.

    Hello Olivier

    Welcome to the Forums of the BlackBerry Support

    Try this KB:

    KB23968 BlackBerry Messenger icon disappears from the home screen of the BlackBerry smartphone

     

    Or you can try to reinstall BBM, do that first remove all existing versions of BBM options > device > application > locate and delete BlackBerry Messenger from this list. When reboot its perform another traction battery by removing the battery while your unit is powered.

    Finally, after rebooting your BlackBerry browser go to www.blackberry.com/bbm and download the latest version available for your device.

    Try it and see if that helps.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones lost all contacts during software update

    Hey I've just updated v4.6 on my "BOLD" and now I can not find my contacts... info calendar and Outlook still there but all my contacts were lost... Help!

    Thank you

    Hello and welcome!

    Depending on how you did the update, it may have created a backup file on your PC. If you did the update via attached USB on your PC (for example, no OTA), search your hard drive for a file with an extension of the RPI (*.ipd). Inspect the results (date/time of the file) and choose the one to use in the restore. Then, run the DTM software and perform a selective restore:

  • BlackBerry Smartphones SMS Backup-able?

    Hello. I had a BB Bold 9650 for six weeks, and the 'o' key is out.  Verizon sent me a new free, but I have text messages that I really want to keep.  If I do a backup of my phone, which will exclude my texts or is it possible to save them for the transfer?

    I am open to any downloadable software, with which I can save my texts.  But I checked my options in the SMS section and the inside of the text itself, and there seems to be no way to save these texts is to the card by e-mail, the PC or the media.

    Would appreciate any input from anyone before I go ahead and switch phones.  I have maybe just live without "O" key and keep my existing phone.  Sounds crazy, I know, but I really want to save these.  There should be a way to save and transfer all back to the new, I hope.  Searched the web for two hours looking for it but no luck so far.  Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    If you are always two devices by hand, then you can use the switch device Wizard:

    • KB16291 How to use the switch device Wizard to switch to a new BlackBerry smartphone

    Honestly I don't positive how specifically manages the SMS, but there are sections of your user manual that discussing it... You should also check here.

    Also, you can manually back up your SMS database, and then I guess that try to restore:

  • Problem blackBerry Smartphones remove a contact

    Hi can someone help me...

    I have a contact in my address book that I need to remove. I have tried the methods specified which are recommended by the function 'help' on the phone. Nothing seems to work. They are also a BBM contact, and I tried to delete them that way. Remove the BBm contact, she always leaves me the contact in my address book. I tried editing, but the prompt tells me just save data externally... Whatever that means.

    In any case, it is still there and IRRITATING me... Please help someone!

    OK, in this case, I think I might have understood.  Thanks for this info!

    What you were sent is called contact .vcf.  Another person suggested the following solution in another forum.

    1. backup your contacts using the BlackBerry Desktop Software.

    2. now go back and restore your contacts database.

    This should ensure that you can edit or delete this contact information.

    Try and if it still does not work, let me know and I'll ask for more information.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones removed bbm info by accident and can't get it back

    Please help, if anyone has any idea if I can retrieve all of the information that was deleted from my cell phone.  It's my last attempt of my password. and blackberry deleted all my info here... I thought they'll just remove my password. my list of contacts, my SMS and my photos and videos are gone... I need to recover so badly... Please help... .anyone please...

    I am to help you! Why do you ask for help please?

    You have a BlackBerry ID. It is used when you want to download an application on BBWorld. You also need to log into the device then in BBM. There are some things in life that should be remembered. Your device password is one of them. You are suffering and begging me for help because he could not remember your own password. It goes the same for BBID. I don't remember your password or your BBID for you since I've never known them initially.

  • BlackBerry smartphones my BBM chat does not

    I had BBM 5.0.33 and upgraded to the BBM 5.0.55 yesterday and today someone I messaged so I answered, and in the chat next to my message, the icon is stuck at Red mini clock instead of going to the box. I tried to send messages to all of my contacts but I get the same result. Soft rebooted my blackberry, but it did nothing.

    Very frustrated, because how BBM is one of the essential aspects to owning a blackberry, for me anyway.

    help please

    With the BlackBerry device powered time, remove battery for a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to restart.

    A 'soft reboot' is not the same as the above.

    Via Vodafone eForum, I was told to drop the zero of my phone contacts list.  This solves the problem.  However, the same list of contacts (with leading zeros) worked well for SMS sending on my previous Blackberry 8800.
