BlackBerry Smartphones something strange on my home screen
HI - can anyone help identify an alert icon that has appeard in the top of my screen?
Its right at the top, next to the yellow envelope icon indicating incoming e-mail.
Its a small black circie with what looks like a white arrow pointing left towards diagonlly. It also has a small red star against which gives me to think that I have something 'entrants' but I can't work what he.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thank you
Julian
Julian, Hello and welcome to the Forums of Support BlackBerry.com.
The notification indicates you have an App World application > my word, which is ready for an upgrade. Look there for the upgrade.
To clear the notification on the screen, find the alert message in your main folder, read or delete it.

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Go to messages, menu button, display folder
Look in each folder, including the browser Messages
and WAP push messages. Delete messages
and the icon should disappear.

BlackBerry Smartphones IM icon (yellow globe) home screen page doesn't GO AWAY
It drives me crazy. I don't have any apps downloaded on my device with the exception of BBM IM. I don't have a message from blackberry in traffic but there is a yellow globe with a '1' beside him, right next to the time stamp on my home screen.
I removed the battery and rebooted my phone. I called customer service of bberry and they are of no use to me.
Someone please tell me what to do!
Hello and welcome to the Forums of Support BlackBerry.com.
A round yellow icon, probably not an Instant Message icon.
Go to your Messages folder > Menu > view folders > and look the WAP PUSH MESSAGES in your folder.
Find message and open it, read it or delete it.
Who help you?

Check the AppWorld or Mobihand.com or one of the many theme developers.

BlackBerry smartphones add tasks to the home screen
I use the BB Dimension theme today with Messages, calendar, call the newspaper and the Applications on the screen. As applications are quick to reach with the application key, I delete apps on my home screen and add tasks. Is this possible?
Hello
Today I apparently have a large enough buffer.
It took me a long time to realize that the BB dimension today screen icons can be ordered again.
I'm sorry to have misled you, involuntary, such as it was.

Yellow blackBerry Smartphones phone icon on the home screen
Hello everyone, I have a small yellow telephone with an arrow icon above on my home screen and cannot work out what it means. Any suggestions? Thank you
Last option - call your carrier and ask them if they know what it is (you may have to pass several people - each will have their own personal knowledge base and might be more willing to dig deeper than the other). I looked as well through which I can find documentation and the particular one that you describe is not listed. However, most of the documentation comes from RIM - carriers can do what they want on top of that RIM provides, so ask your carrier might be your best bet.
Good luck!

BlackBerry Smartphones small icon on the home screen
recently received a blackberry bold 9700 as a gift. noticed that a very small icon appears near the upper left-hand corner of the screen. looks like a box or a Briefcase with a red circle on the upper right corner of the icon, with a White Star or an arrow inside. its too small to say with certainty. Unable to find answers in books or online.
Help, please
Open discussion group, chat, photos, list, calendar, etc., or something has been updated with a new message or such.
The icon should then clear. This icon that has the form of a suitcase is a discussion group icon.

Hey guys,.
New to the forum, but I would like to know how to remove it and what it means? It's the same when you receive a message or a sms for example at the top of the screen.
Thank you
ESD
It is a push browser message. Go to the main Messages folder, and then press the BB menu key. Select view folders and check in the folder browser Messages. The message should be there. You can see it, and then delete it.
I hope that helps!

Smartphones from blackBerry Torch 9810 locked to the home screen
Hello
I would ask you for help. I continued receive notifications of updates to BB App World, I found quite annoying, so I searched the Internet for trick how to avoid these. I followed the recommendation of someone to go to options > application > applications > app world > and then deny all of their parameters. After having done that, the unit restarted and showed the following: Application completed, access denied for user LpBBMBridgelmpl. This notification stays on the screen, then it goes to the home screen where the unit is locked and shows "new messgae" notes. But Im not able to touch anything, cannot. What should I do?
May thanks for your advice.

Hello and welcome to the community!
I recommend that you try to start safe mode:
- KB17877 How to start a smartphone BlackBerry in Mode safe
It will take several attempts to get the combination of keys ESC (press/release/hold) OK, so be patient. When properly in Safe Mode, try to reverse what you did.
Good luck and let us know!

I assume that you have installed? Look in your downloads folder. There?
Check Options > Applications. See listed?
If so,.
Perform a restart of the device: with the BlackBerry device powered on, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to restart.
