BlackBerry Smartphones Tweaks or recommended applications

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not download applications

    Hello, I recently brought the new 9320. I have the card memory base San Disk that come with the Blackberry. Also, as soon as I put the phone I downloaded Blackberry Desktop Support software. The desktop software and storage on the phone at the same time options I have a 14.4 MB remaining on the phone storage and 1.4 GB left on my memory card. When I try to download apps on the phone via my WiFi it is said that there is not enough remaining space. I guess that the phone will only attempt to download the application in the device memory. Is it possible that I can get the phone to automatically download the application directly on my memory card? Or is there another problem that prevents me download apps?

    Thank you.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    There are three types of potential memory on a BB: 1) application memory, the device memory) 2 and 3) Media/SD Card Memory.

    Application memory - it is the most important; It is protected (not available to the user), dedicated and (fixed size) space as the destination for the installation of applications (the BONE itself more certain applications storage, overhead and such). You can't touch AppMemory. You cannot improve the maximum AppMemory that your BB has. It is what it is. Applications can install only here... There is no other choice.

    The device memory - it is space on your BB you can touch these files, images, media, etc. In general, it is not very big, but it is available.

    Memory card SD/Media- is what it says... your SD card to store files, media, photos, etc.. It can be as large as your BB OS can support... see this KB:

    • KB05461 Sizes of card MicroSD taken in charge by the BlackBerry device software

    On some devices/OS levels, you can see 'Free file' (Options > status), I think this is equivalent to AppMemory. You can see on other devices, all the memory usage levels three (Options > memory). Here are some tips to use:

    • KB02843 What is the function of low memory manager on the BlackBerry smartphone
    • KB14320 How to maximize space and power battery life on the BlackBerry smartphone
    • KB14213 Call logs, SMS text and email messages are deleted from the BlackBerry smartphone

    Finally, it is always important to correctly close applications when you are finished with them. Using the back or on the red button won't do that - those leave the app to decide what to do... and some let themselves memory-resident, consumes resources on your BB, slowing down the overall performance. On the contrary, to close an application, tap on and select 'Close' or 'Quit'... which force the application to be closed, freeing resources for your new use it consumed. Some applications will always be running (in general - BBMessenger, browser, homescreen, phone and Messages)... but, you should always close them properly - especially the browser... If we leave on a web page, it will not consume only additional resources, but the power of the battery as well.

    In addition, each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. 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. Some have taken to do this on a regular basis as a preventive measure... some as often as once a day. Others got the app QuickPull to automate a simulated Batt Pull.

    Thus, issues of the app, it is a question of AppMemory... Please see the information above in order to maximize the amount of free AppMemory on your BB. If your particular model of BB has a limited amount of total AppMemory, then you must understand the mixture of 'must have' for you and then give priority to your "optional elements" in order to charge as much as you can, sacrifice these things of lower priority.

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones changing approval to applications for 8520

    Is it possible to change the permission of 'Desktop To Go Applications' my word, excel, ppt and pdf of my curve8520? It is displayed as "deny".

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    There are dozens of permission settings... I have no way, what said you, namely that which shows that 'Deny '...

    But, if you can change that setting, then your likely BB is now or was formerly associated with a corporate BES environment, and a BES it policy is on board which is preventing access to this permission setting.

    If you are currently a member of BES, then you need to talk to your admins BES to access this special permission setting.

    If you are not currently associated with BES, TI latent policy was deleted not the when the BB is provided for you... and you need to remove. Please see this KB and consider very special on all the warnings about the loss of data:

    Magicberry application is not the analysis of the file.

    Hello

    I'm not sure I understand your question, but here's a knockout that explains how set up the synchronisation between your PIM (Outlook, for example) and your BB (via USB or BT):

    • KB03315 How set up the synchronisation of data using BlackBerry Desktop Software organizer

    If that does not contain what you need, please try your question again, perhaps with more details so that we can have a chance to understand your request.

    Good luck and let us know!

    PS - MagicBerry has nothing to do with the synchronization between a BB and Outlook. MagicBerry is designed to analyze the IPD or BBB file, but the RIM itself desktop software provides synchronization between Outlook and the BB. So I'm not sure what part MagicBerry plays in your application.

  • Convenient to blackBerry Smartphones, based on recommended experience device (f/w? /) s/w version (s) for all PC activities oriented the TELUS Mobility BB Tour 9630

    Hey all the... I wonder if I can pick the brains of the people and get good advice re: practice based experience recommended device (f/w? /) s/w version (s) for all PC activities oriented the TELUS Mobility BB Tour 9630, including PC-resident s/w (pkgs) & USB / USB Serial drivers (on XP Pro SP3).

    I will probably be wanting to improve various (f/w? /) components s/w after a hiatus of three years on the BB before... However, based on my own experience of technology, newer / more recent (f/w?) / s/w (pkgs) is (are) not always the best for the end user and, same can be limiting in some identifiable ways... I'm speaking in general terms here... so... it might be the last BB s/w is the absolute best way to go for my PC o/s and turn device platform... I'm just out there throwing this idea to make a educated to determine what updates to install and what level of version, in the case where the generalized suspicion that I have described above have no worth.

    I don't have (or want) data enabled on the 9630, then, have screen capture or copied the text that he (like all the information in the Options > topic: "BlackBerry (R) 9630, smartphone (3G, CDMA), v5.0.0.419 (Platform 4.2.0.179)", 3G bands 1... "") ([and, or course, there is much more information on this screen...]) me (any suggestion or help on this front would be greatly appreciated) have so far escaped... perhaps the most relevant appliance version information required by the members of the forum to help me to decide this question also appear in my PC screenshots below.

    Here's what I left over on my PC from my relationships with my BB Storm 9530 3 years ago:

    Thank you, FFF

    Hello! Thanks for the clarification... they help greatly to understand your request. Here is my opinion:

    In simpler terms... should I upgrade my TELUS Tour 9630 software (currently at: v5.0.0.419 [Platform 4.2.0.179] of the most currently available software, regardless of the version # / platform # which may be?)

    Or, is it an advantage in the upgrade only to a certain level of version of BlackBerry OS on this particular device?

    For your 9630, you're already on the last level of operating system that fate/Telus media. I don't know if other carriers have published anything more advanced, but you can read a very good discussion here:

    Of after what I saw, I would assume that there is nothing 'new' than you... at least not officially... but you can dig through the portal to download official to validate the fact that:

    Given that it's carriers who hold responsibility for the release of BB OS packages to their clients, this portal is indeed sorted first by carrier... so you must first dig to find out which carriers support your 9630 and then compare packages of OS coming to present each company support. Unfortunately, it is also the responsibility of carriers to release change log information, but too much of them is rather lax on this point. But this thread I linked to above has I think some very good information that could help you in your quest. You should also look for other threads here (and elsewhere) on similar topics.

    And, I had to upgrade the driver USB BlackBerry / USB Serial Driver / Device Manager / Desktop Manager software on my XP Pro SP 3 PC to newer versions? (1st post screenshots all present the current version # s... this software was installed all around mid-2009)

    Or, is there an advantage in upgrading only at certain levels of version of the BlackBerry software for each of the above elements... in the case of this particular device?

    Desktop software does not care the specific device. On the contrary, it gives some capabilities that you choose. For example, if you need the ability to export your BB to CSV/ASCII, then you need to stay in the range of version 6 because this feature has been removed from version 7. Similarly, if you intend to synchronize your BB with a computer (-) office or PIM, you must make sure that you run a Desktop software version that is compatible with your PIM:

    • KB12268 Support for synchronization for BlackBerry Desktop Software for Windows

    If none of those that are important and/or compatibility is fine with the latest version, it is often wiser to stick to the latest bug fixes, feature enhancements, etc. Is doesn't want to is not to say that people have no problems with the latest version through the Desktop board software on this site is confirm that pretty quickly! But, in general, there should be no harm/no foul to the use of the latest version of the with your BB desktop software.

    In addition, it is always a good idea to also download and install on your PC the BB OS package that is actually running on your BB. This is a little personalized Desktop software so that it can better work with your specific environment of BB. You cannot choose which components within the desktop software you want to update (mentioning "point line" you did)... instead, you install the whole package, and it contains within everything there as 'in progress' based on the global version of the Desktop software package.

    Hope that helps! Good luck!

  • BlackBerry smartphones some non-visible applications in AppWorld

    I have problems with the BlackBerry AppWorld does not display some
    applications. I can search for the application and it is not found,
    Although the application appears on the list recommended web site. If
    Send me an email from the website with a link to the app, I can see
    it on the BB, but it doesn't have a download option. One application that I
    Since is with Shazam.

    On other devices, I can see the app in AppWorld.

    I use a storm that may be responsible for the difference. AppWorld filter options that you see, based on the model of the unit?

    App World allows suppliers to present special versions for different devices. And the App World Client filter apps depending on your phone model.

    Since you are using storm, touchscreen BlackBerry, no wonder that not all applications are supported on the screen don't touch. However, the seller may present a version supporting storm later. So, just check them later in your App World for the missing applications.

    Hello!

    There is virtually no diagnosis of those - they are the equivalent of random errors in Windows for which trace the root cause is futile. Basically, here's the last out in the programming code - some event occurred for which there is no event handler in the code. The patch is an update of the code that handles the event... but, again, what is the event is almost impossible. So, there are a few things to try:

    Sometimes, the code simply is damaged and needs to be updated - just like a reboot:

    • Each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. 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.

    There may be a code updated to the value of the carrier - check out them through this Portal:

    The toughest possible causes are a bad application behave. To find it, there are two options. Is to see if you can read the log file:

    Go to the home screen. Hold down the ALT key and type "lglg". (You won't see anything as you type). This will bring up the log file. Scroll down (probably a lot of pages) until you see a line that says "eception execption. Click on this line. The application name will be in the info.

    The other method is to remove the apps one at a time, wait a while between the two (I usually recommend a week), until the problem stops... revealing the offending application.

  • Deploy an icon on the BlackBerry smartphone to a web application or URL

    Hello

    I want to deploy an icon on the BlackBerry for a web application is home.  When the user click on this icon, I automatically want to launch my web app (URL).

    I found this article:

    http://www.BlackBerry.com/knowledgecenterpublic/livelink.exe/fetch/2000/348583/800708/800655/How_To _...

    http://www.BlackBerry.com/knowledgecenterpublic/livelink.exe/fetch/2000/7979/1181821/832210/Developi...

    I did a test with my Blackberry that is connected to a BES, and it works very well using the code example.

    My question is this, 'channel browser push' can be used for Blackberry that is not configured in our BES.

    For example, I want to be able to deploy an icon on the Blackberry from customers and suppliers we have, but these Blackberries are not related at all our BES or network.

    Is it possible to do this?  If so, should I do something special to make it work?

    If not, does that mean my only solution is to create a Java application that automatically launch the browser Blackberry (second option from the first link)?

    Thanks for your help!

    Channel browser push you make reference to requires the user is on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server.

    The alternatives to this is a Java application (as you have discovered), BlackBerry Widget or Signal of Web.  Web signals is the equivalent to a BlackBerry Internet Server Browser channel thrust.

    As a result, I am unable to download any application on my Blackberry.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    I suggest that you clear the cache of the AppWorld application:

    1. open the App World

    2. go to my world

    3. follow one (and only one!) of these steps:

    3. for the BB keyboard-oriented - hold down the ALT key and press on, in the sequence R, then S, then T

    3B. for touch screen only BBs - hold the num-lock (! 123 button) so that it hangs and then press on, in the sequence 3, then 4, then)

    3 c for the most recent (e, g., OS6 and 7) BB s, see this KB:

    • KB24714 How to clear the cache of BlackBerry App World

    4 AppWorld must close.

    5. If your BB locks after issuing clear cache, do a battery pull reboot

    6. return to AppWorld/MyWorld (it can be slow, while it re - sync).

    If (4) stage arrives not as described, then the empty the cache failed.

    I hope it'll work for you! Good luck and let us know!

  • WARNING blackBerry Smartphones: 3 rd Party Applications and new software update

    Warning about the 3rd party applications: I recently downloaded 5-10 3 rd party applications on my Blackberry Curve 8310.  All seemed well for the first day or two, but then after that my phone started himself reboot over and over again. The only thing I could do and that he would keep on had to continuously press the back (arrow).  It was extremely difficult to erase the applications on the phone while having this button is used to keep on. Finally, I kept it long enough to completely wipe the phone and reload the OS software and do a restore on all content.  It was the only thing that helped.

    After I got my phone working again, I noticed that some of the service books were somehow deleted during this process. I had to go on my site of BIS of service providers (google to find the website of your provider BIS) and I had to return the service directories to my phone. After that, I noticed that my APN, username and password have been deleted... For google, I got that as well to find the right APN address to type to get my internet and other functions running.  Now, I noticed that my notebook, brickbreaker and tasks are missing from my list of icons and the list of the Applications on my phone. URGH! Now I had to re-download the new software and while recharging it I had to make sure I clicked on advanced and made sure that these elements have been verified to download as well.

    ... NOW, my phone is restarting again.

    DON'T MAKE THIS MISTAKE! IT OF ME GIVIN SUCH A MASSIVE HEADACHE! I AM READY TO THROW MY PHONE OUT THE FREAKING WINDOW. SERIOUSLY... WHAT GIVES?

    UPDATE:

    Well, I figured out how to get my Notepad, password keeper, and the brick breaker back... and since I have redownloaded the software and restarted my phone, everything seems to work very well.  If you just installed the new software and you miss now your Notepad, password keeper and brickbreaker icons, here's what you do:

    1. open your BB Desktop software and connect your phone.

    2. click on Application Loader

    3. click on start under Update Applications

    4. click on Check For Updates in the lower right corner of the screen. This will redirect you to the page of the BB software.

    5. from this page, you want to click on Blackberry Device Software in the left column.

    6. click on the button update now.

    7. click on the update button. This will pull up the BB Desktop.

    8. from this screen, click Options. The device Application selection page should open.

    9. here you want to scroll down and tick all that you are missing as: Notepad, password keeper, etc.

    10. click Next.

    11. click on finish

    You are only halfway done... Now you must do the following to get your old memos and passwords that have been stored in these dos applications.  I hope that you have a backup that you saved before installing the new software.  Otherwise you are about to lock but if you have it, it's what you do:

    1. in the main menu of the BB Desktop click on the backup and restore

    2. click on advanced, on the right.

    3. in the upper left corner of the screen click on file, then open.

    4. search your saved backup file, and click on the one you want.

    5. now, in the left column, you will see roughly the same thing that is in the right column. You can click on those that you are missing, one by one and add to your phone by clicking on the ">" arrows.  Specifically, you will want to click on: Blackberry Messenger, Memo Pad Options, memos, guard password, password Keeper Options, tasks, tasks Options.

    Hope this helps anyone who was having the same problem as me!
