BlackBerry Smartphones turn off 3G browsing but keep all other data

I am looking for a way to prevent the browser using data in the cell, but keep everything else above. My friend is a Virgin Mobile Blackberry Social map and trying to find a way to prevent my friend of accidental data usage.

Any ideas?

You can go to Options > Advanced Options > browser and change the default browser at the Hotspot browser.

  • BlackBerry smartphones turn off GPS.

    I'm new to BlackBerry.

    I turned on the GPS to try it out and it works fine.  I then return to the E911.  I expected that GPS would not work then, but it also proved that the browser does not work either.  I activated the GPS back but the browser worked fine.

    If I leave the GPS on:

    Drain the battery even if I don't use this feature?

    Is there a way to autmatically turn it on when the browser is open and turn it off when it closes?

    Thank you.

    I just turned off the GPS on my lap and was able to use the BlackBerry browser with no problems. You don't need GPS to use the BlackBerry browser.

  • BlackBerry smartphones turn off the Blackberry "BOLD"

    OK, I know this sounds stupid, but what is the correct procedure to turn off and restart the Blackberry "BOLD"? I hav tried holding in the key power, I get the stop message, press any key to cancel, I leave it alone and the backlight turns off, left alone for 10 minutes and then press the Power button again and the phone comes to life instantly, with the phone in the same position as when I wanted it off, i.e. it looks like it's just in mode 'sleep' as it is consumed in less than a second. I resorted to the battery, but it becomes laborious. And I cannot locate the info in the manual, it says just press the switch! I have also tried holding down until it seems to power off, but alas he always goes in mode 'sleep', please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

    Please mark the thread solved.

  • My blackberry curve blackBerry smartphones turns off while I use it

    OK, I was on my phone and I had a question about something so I went to the browser and typed in www.google.com and then it started to load and then just turned off and returned. I thought that it was just this site but I have tried other sites and it does the same thing. Help, please!

    Batteries can fail in different ways, with different symptoms. Must show a load, but not be able to provide the necessary power under load. This is what I suspect in your case - battery is simply respond to demand for the phone, but the extra power needed for browser, screen and so on cannot be provided and unit turns off.

    Also, execution of the lithium batteries at the bottom constantly is hard on them. They do better when they are upgraded frequently.

    I think you need a new battery. Try to load before he gets to 20% and recharged during the night when you sleep.

  • BlackBerry smartphones turn off WiFi on Pearl 8120 on Orange

    I want to be able to turn on and turn off the WiFi on my pearl. I am new to blackberry so I am struggling to find how to turn it off. I have worked on how to disable the Bluetooth, but not WiFi.

    I want to turn it off, because I'm not a big user of access to the internet and I am trying to improve the life of the battery. Also, I guess I don't need WiFi to receive regular emails.

  • Phone of blackBerry Smartphones turn off all while listening to music

    I have a Blackberry Torch 9810. About a week or two ago, I updated my phone (cause really jumped to the top and update notification of insistent the * beep * seemed to be the only way for it to leave me alone). If I read correctly the version information, I've updated it's software Bundle 1997 (v 7.1.0.694 platform 5.1.0.507) 7.1. For a little while, everything was fine.

    Then, while listening to the music while the comings and goings city, my song came end and nothing came after him. After several seconds of silence, I pulled out my phone and I tried so that he could play the next song (I put it usually just on shuffle and has no way for me to go through the rotation of set). But the entire phone was off. Push the power button failed to return. I flipped open the case back, pulled out the battery, checked the connections and jumped it in. A few seconds later the phone turned on and proceeded to go through the painfully slow loading screen. When I navigated to the section music in the media section, there is a green bar at the bottom of the screen and the number of songs was counted up to scratch, as if I had just it synchronized and set to new music.

    Since then, this happened several times. Part of the time that the phone was in my pocket, but not always. It doesn't happen until the end of a song. The phone will not respond to any keys until the battery has been removed and then put back in place.

    Therefore, I beg this community, what should I do to fix this? Help, please!

    So, I followed the steps you provided for the first solution... except for the first. It is not evident how to remove any previously installed my PC operating system software. Thinking about it now, it seems that I should try control through the available through the Control Panel Add/Remove Programs tool. I just wanted to see if it was the right thing to do. If not, could you tell me how to remove the software?

    It's exactly because BB OS packages are installed on the PC/Windows, they would be removed from the PC/Windows in the usual manner. In the normal list ("Add/Remove Programs" or "Uninstall a program", depending on your version of Windows), it would say something like «BlackBerry Device Software»... "and include in this line item, the model BB so number BB OS level it contains. Is it doesn't have these line items, then there is no packet of BB OS installed on the PC... and, for this really works, it must be a (the one you want to put on your BB). What you're aiming for is two positions that focus on the BB because programs installed Windows the list... one for the desktop software and another for the BB OS Package.

    All other operations don't lead to any sort of command prompt to install the operating system

    Hmmm... interesting... it may be that the version you have installed on your PC (using the step 3 above) is the version already installed, in which case it could not make an offer. If this is the case, then the best way to 'force' to install for your BB is to work around the Desktop software and proceed directly to the CHARGER. EXE... you go to that via Windows Explorer or CMD/DOS window and then run it. You will find the LOADER. EXE in C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader.

    You can learn more about this procedure (LOADER. EXE, bypassing Desktop software) here:

    Note Although written to "recharge" and the storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade or recharge any BB device model - depends on the operating system package you download and install on your PC.

    It is also possible for the Software Desktop jump, if BB OS installed (to the PC) package does not exactly match the model number of the BB. It is also not known if there is no package of BB OS installed on the PC at all. In addition, he will jump if the operating system package came from another carrier and that the SELLER. XML files have not been eliminated.

    Good luck and let us know!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones turning off phone - Message says "next time: August 8, 2009 10:00 ' why?

    Hello

    When I use the red button to turn off the phone, it displays a message that says "next time: August 8, 2009 10:00.

    My phone is not set to automatic start/stop, and even if he was, he has no date option in this environment.  So why is this message, and why he chose this particular date?  I have a reocurring (per year), appointments in the calendar that day and at that time, the birthday of my girlfriend, but I have other appointments before this date, the days also.

    Urgh... hate replying to my own messages...

    Only, I went to the calendar, selected alarm application 'new' and added an alarm for tomorrow at 0600 h.  I keep the phone, and it displays a message saying "next to the time: 26 May 2009 06:00", so it is the function of alarm in the calendar application.

    Thanks for your help.

  • 'Data Connection Refused' blackBerry smartphones turn off the notification!

    Hello, I'm on sick leave for the next three months and my work doesn't pay for my phone, and I really didn't want to know how many emails are piling up in my Inbox, while I'm away, so I called AT & T today and cancelled my internet package.  So, right now, I'm only using my blackberry as a phone and calendar, tasks, etc.  There is a notification that appears on top of my phone that says 'Data Connection Refused'.  I looked through the options and I can't understand how to transform that turned off, any suggestions?

    Thank you!!!

    This means that your SIM is not provisioned for BlackBerry services... which is obvious as your request to cancel your BlackBerry data plan. To delete "Data Connection Refused' on top of your device go Options -> Mobile network -> Data Service: Off.

    You should

    1. Go to your Messages folder > press the Menu key > Options > General Options > scroll down for > hide sent Messages = Yes. And save.
    2. Or, Alternatively, contact your BES administrator and ask it to disable the synchronization of your Outlook, messages sent to your device. Sorta, I doubt they make for it, so stick to #1.

    Received today a new "BOLD". Just like on my old BB, when I have a new message or text by e-mail, the indicator light flashes red. But all the rest of the time it flashes green. How to disable that?

    Go to your screen/keyboard settings and turn off the light cover.

  • BlackBerry smartphones turn off at & t Internet so that it uses only Wifi

    I have a data limit on my plan and I was under the impression when I got access to a wifi network, say to my apartment, that my phone will automatically use the wifi instead of the information At & t network.  Is it possible to disable data At & t on my phone?  I know that I need, whether through the company, but if I could turn it on and off my phone so I can control when he access internet, I want to do.  Still receive phone calls and texts but only use internet when I chose to use it.

    -SLangston

    I think that Jsanders has reason, but if you want to be sure, you can go into 'mobile network options' and disable data services.  This way you can still receive phone calls but it access data via AT & T until what you turn off Won't back on.

  • Can I turn off Bluetooth ON but keep WIFI?

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 computer with a switch keyboard that activates or not the wifi and bluetooth.

    I also have a bluetooth speaker that I use for music.

    My computer is plugged into an ethernet which becomes active when the keyboard switch is 'off '.

    I want to use the Ethernet connected all by activating my bluetooth speaker.  However, I can't do that because when I turn the switch "on" wireless keyboard and bluetooth become active.

    Is there a way to activate bluetooth and wifi to get away?

    Hello:

    If you have not already done so, you can download and install the software HP Wireless Assistant for the operating system you are running on the download page for your laptop. The HP Wireless Assistant will allow you to independently control your Bluetooth, wireless adapter is enabled or disabled and.

    If it is already installed, just launch it and click on the gray button to turn off your wireless network card.
