BlackBerry Smartphones SMS disappeared! Help please!

This is my first Blackberry, so please excuse any ignorance or stupidness! I got my BB around a month ago and I noticed that my texting more than three weeks have now disappeared. The names of the people I sent a text message / texting me are still there, but when I open them there is nothing there. Is it normal for a BB? Text messages vanish after a month or two? It is abit annoying to say the least! And if this isn't normal then someone at - it advice and assistance to put this right?

Very appreciated

Thank you

There is a setting that auto removes once a certain period... default is 3-4 weeks I think.

makes sense.

While your in your sms Inbox, go to your options-> General options-> bottom of page.

    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
    3. Remove the less frequently used application. To remove go to Options -> Advanced Options -> Applications -> highlight the application you want to delete-> click Menu , and then select Remove

  • BlackBerry smartphones can someone help please?

    up to a few days a go, I was able to surf the web and send/receive surveys bbm so I was on the phone, I contacted blackberry and they said to contact my service provider, so I did it and then we me contact blackberry once again, so I don't have all the answers. There is nothing wrong with my phone while I'm not in a call, but it's a nice feature to receive surveys bbm so I was in a call, I reset my whole phone and I'm still not having any luck can someone help me please?

    3G or WiFi is the only service on this device which will allow the data at the same time as a phone call.  There's no other way.

    The notice says you have an application that you previously downloaded or purchased in App World > My World, which is ready for an upgrade on your device. Look there for the upgrade.

    To clear the notification on the screen, find the alert message in your main folder, read or delete it.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones looking for help, please: my "Downloads" (Torch 9810) whole deleted Panel

    I was trying to move an icon on my control panel downloads for my media folder, and I pointed out and pressed the menu button, when all of the panel suddenly erased. I don't know what I did, nor what I can or should do about it. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you, Xan, but the problem has been resolved - the hard way. You can see on my other thread of crisis, I have linked to the BB desktop software and I saw an update available for my OS, I clicked on apply and as this was happening, my connection failed. I kept getting the message that it wouldn't reconnect (aaaaaaarrrggghh!), and my camera ended with the message "error 561, reload software.» I posted a notice 'aid' here, but then the clouds parted and a miracle happened. I tried to reconnect, and the software reloaded. Hallelujah! I restored the backup I ran on the desktop software 3 days earlier, so I reinstalled my applications to my world and my Iconify links. so my download Panel is filled again. I would like, there was an easier way to solve this, but, oh, who cares? I got my BB!

  • BlackBerry smartphone Service book help please!

    good so im a new user for the blackberry storm and I searched through the service book... I know that some things are important from the looks of what I have on the list.  but I'm curious to know if I delete anything I don't use or want on my phone, like the tones of the ASBL, a looser radio, Flickr, AIM, YHO, GT, WLM, Blackberry maps, etc... all the things that I do not have any affiliation,... could adversely affect my phone if I delete those out... or not?

    Hello and welcome to the Forums of Support BlackBerry.com.

    If you delete these unnecessary service books, they will just get pushed to your device.

    Do not worry them, they take up very little space.

  • Virus blackBerry Smartphone app? Help please!

    3 applications appear randomly in my Bold 9700 download folder, haven't downloaded or modified permissions for what it is. No option to remove them, they are marked 100% games, sync music bubble bash 2.0 and virgin media. Have tried to change the records to be deleted, but no luck! I know that bb is virtually virus free, someone else has had this problem or have any ideas please?

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    Please check here:

    • Home screen > Options > (Advanced Options in certain levels of OS) > Applications

    If the app in question is not on this list, it is not installed. On the contrary, the icon is a shortcut for "teaser" pushed to you from your wireless service provider. You can't really get rid of those. On the contrary, what I do is to create a homescreen folder called "Alternative icons" (some call it "Junk") and to settle all these icons. In this way, they are out of the way. On the other hand, if the application in question is on this list, then click on the X button and delete the app.

    Good luck!

  • 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.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones SMS - 1?... .Please help!

    Help, please!

    When I have no new messages in my Inbox SMS, it is said - 1 on the home screen, rather than simply say 'messages' as he usually does.  So when I get a message, he said 'messages' instead of '1', and when I have 2 messages in my Inbox, it says "1"!  That's happened?

    I don't know what I can do to solve this problem, I know that's not a huge problem, but its really bugging me.

    I tried to restart my phone a bunch of times, and it helps not at all.  Is there some kind of reset that could possibly solve this problem?  What do I love?

    I would try to empty the Inbox, pulling on the battery, then put it back in

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Recieving duplicate emails, please help!

    Hey,.

    I thought I found how to solve this problem, but I do not think!

    I had a BlackBerry "BOLD" (never locked) as a gift during a stay in the UNITED Arab Emirates. I recorded for their services and set up my email by phone account (prohibits the company, its never locked).

    I came back to the Canada and subscribed to the services of BB with my ISP (Rogers). I had deleted the email from my phone and added it but now I seem to get duplicates of all my messages from my Gmail account!

    Based on what I've read online, apparently my PIN needs to be released or something, but how to fix this? I hate having to receive 2 emails all the time, it's boring.

    Help, please. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

    EDIT: I would like to add that even when I delete my email through setting up account, I still receive emails on my Blackberry (and a single email). It seems that it is interconnected with my blackberry. How can I get rid of this?

    Each time my Inbox to work on updates of Outlook (and this includes save the messages in the Inbox before sending) a copy is sent to my phone inbox. This means that whenever I open my Inbox uotlook on my desk or make a break while composoing email, another copy of the e-mail message is sent to my phone. I have so many copies (some of them incomplete compositions) on my phone. How can I stop this?
