BlackBerry Smartphones two questions / issues for BB curve

• BlackBerry Smartphones two Questions about BlackBerry Curve 8310

  Don't know if anyone can help, but I'm stumped.

  The first question has to do with the Messages folder.  I want my emails to show up ONLY in the e-mail folders.  I don't want the Messages folder to include e-mails (so don't want to be notified whenever I get a new email).  Is this possible?  I tried going the Messaging Options and to crack the SMS and email boxes, but then when I go to the folder of Messages from the hand of screen it displays only e-mail messages (I have to press the menu button, then select SMS Inbox to display SMS messages).  I don't want e-mails during the message folder.  Is this possible?

  Second question has to do with the deletion of multiple messages.  Now, I have to delete messages one at a time.  Is it possible to select multiple messages to delete?

  And that means in fact 'reconciliation' (guess I have three questions)?

  Thank you very much for your help!

  For the first question, this can do what you want (this will stop the notification for email and SMS, but your SMS icon will always have the "red sprocket wheel" when you receive a new SMS).

  First, separate you SMS and email inboxes:

  1. go to Messages (Inbox)

  2. press the Option key

  3. press on the 'o' key, then the trackball

  4. press on the trackball to go to the General Options

  5 scroll to the display new Message indicator, press the trackball, highlight No. and press the trackball

  6. turn highlighted SMS and email inboxes, press the trackball, separate highlight and press the trackball

  7. press the ESC key (right), scroll to save and press the trackball

  8. press ESC to return to the Office on

  This will display the Message icon and a new SMS and MMS Inbox.

  Now, move the Message icon, press the Option key and select hide and press the trackball.  Now the only icon that you have is the SMS and MMS Inbox and there a red gear wheel whenever you have a new SMS or MMS.  Not exactly what you want but a possible work around.  Unfortunately the new message indicator is for emails, SMS and MMS with no way to separate.

  I hope this helps.

  Help - I got a new pc and new bb at the same time - I downloaded my contacts in excel via an older version of the bb desktop mgr-now can't know how do to download excel contact in the curve via Desktop Manager - ideas?

  Thank you

  You can import excel to Outlook, for a single method, and synchronize your Outlook file using the BlackBerry Desktop Manager.

  Another is to export the Excel file to an ASCII text file and then import it directly (without Outlook) using the Desktop Manager.

• BlackBerry Smartphones best memory card for video (curve 8330)

  Hello world. I'm new to this forum. I have a curve 8330 and I want to start taking video with her. What type of memory card do I need? And how much video will each GB of memory hold? Thank you!

  Well, let's say that these are all the videos record you on the BlackBerry, because video recordings of different type will use different compression formulas, but fundamentally from those recorded on the device, you can expect, roughly estimated 10 MB per minute.

  Thus,.

  10 minutes = 100 MB.

  100 minutes (1 hour, 40 minutes) = 1 GB

  1000 minutes (16 hours and 40 minutes) = 10 GB

  1500 minutes (25 hours) = 15 GB

  Pretty much.

• Alarm Audible's blackBerry Smartphones by appointment calendar for the curve

  Is it possible to add an alarm to a reminder of the appointment to the calendar function. At present, it appears a Visual message, but no beep or ring or anything. I searched this forum and see many people ask, but not answers. Can we do? I have a Curve 8320.

  If you go to your profiles, click the trackball and scroll up to where is says advanced (spent at sea). Click the trackball, and then select one of your profiles (e.g., normal). When it is highlighted in blue, click the trackball. You should see a menu scroll down to change, and then click the trackball. You will see a list, and the second high is calendar. If you highlight and click the trackball on the calendar, you can choose all kinds of options for your calendar on how it should notify you of the appts. Hope this has helped.

• BlackBerry Smartphones cant download Facebook for BB - 8520 Curve

  Hello!

  I have a BB 8520 Curve, I need a little help please. I downloaded FB for the curve, but it does not work I don't have internet on my phone, so I only use it with wifi. I found a FB is for this option (at least what I understood), version, I think than 1.5. But when I downloaded it, it said that my phone doesn't have this option... How could I download a version that works? Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  Unfortunately without the BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS), you will not be able to use the Facebook for BlackBerry app, or any other application requiring BIS, on your device.  Your only method to access Facebook on your BlackBerry, if you use only wifi is to access the Facebook mobile site at m.facebook.com.

  Sorry, the news is not positive, but at least you can use the WAP browser to view the mobile site.

• BlackBerry smartphones my questions on the Storm 2 9520

  Hello everyone I do not have a Blackberry but I intend to update my phone soon and get a (I currently have a Nokia N95 8 GB). I looked through the list of Blackberry models, and the 9520 that I fell in love was the Storm 2 9520. I will probably get one, but I have several questions that I couldn't find clear answers on google. I'm picky about details on a phone, so I want to know everything before get you it. Here is the list of things that I had on my mind:

  -J' read that this phone records videos in 3gp format and not mp4. I'm a little worried about that, because I feel 3gp is less intense than mp4 by Windows (Win 7 user here). For example, 3gp, I filmed with an old phone years ago don't even open correctly in most players and no audio. So, is the format the phone records in playable correctly in Windows (Linux too)?

  -J' I always rename my pictures and my videos after taking. With the 9520, you can click a button or menu entry to rename an image / clip immediately after making it? Or they be saved with a name only automated, and you need to open your file browser and navigate to the file to be renamed?

  -A curiosity, I got on the touch screen if it is based only on the detection of heat or by pressing physics too. What I've seen, the heat detection is used when you lightly touch the screen and select the stuff / drag, while only pressing is used actually click. I'm curious because I could use my phone outside in the winter when I have leather gloves, and the screen can not detect my body energy then. Of course, it is difficult to use any phone with gloves, but I sometimes do to some extent

  -Use the charger micro-usb port, or another port? I know that some devices that use USB for charging and connection to the computer, which is a method that I prefer in general. No problem if it is not, just curious.

  -In the specs of the phone, it says maximum 8 GB micro-SD cards are supported. Someone can confirm that more cards are inconsistent and do not work (16 / 32 GB ones)?

  -J' read on a website that the only way to configure e-mail is to have a Blackberry Enterprise Server (do not exactly know what what). But you need to register with Blackberry using a classic IMAP / POP email account (like gmail or yahoo mail)? And besides, you need to register with any Blackberry service to use 3 G internet supplier or to use messenger (YIM MSN and AIM)? I'm guessing not, but always ask to be sure.

  -J' heard some phones have this limit / problem, so just to be safe: can put you MP3 transferred from your computer as ringtones? Or do you need to download them online from special services, as I heard some phones force you to?

  -J' read on several websites that there are complications with the installation of applications via the data cable. That's how I install most of my programs of others on phones. So if I have a jar or jad file on my desktop, is there no possible to install it via data cable unless I have an additional file with it? Same question for no java Blackberry applications.

  -All Web sites mention that the OS 5 web browser does not support flash on web pages (which I find quite sad). However, I can still play the files flash directly from my phone so I just open the swf file?

  -Can you play audio files in ogg / wav format? In addition, it can play video ogv, avi or mpeg?

  -Can I download themes for it that change the icons and colors of the menus? I guess the definition of custom screen (independent of the subject) shouldn't be a problem. Also, is there a free software that allows you to create your own themes and exporting it to the phone via data cable?

  -Are there also a front-facing camera for 3G video chat?

  -J' read on the differences between the 9520 and 9550 and that the 9550 has a frequency of additional network, sure it can work. Everyone says that you can not use a Blackberry in America if you buy it in Europe, in particular the 9520. Is this true? And the more vital than the 9520 9550 compatibility?

  -OS 6 will come to the 9520 too? Some sites say it won't, while than others whether in devices that it will support an update. Hope very much it will be

  -Finally, this could be a sensitive issue and I don't know how poorly seen on it is here. But it's easy to unlock / debrand the 9520? I would like to get the latest versions of firmware and do not have the limited phone.

  Someone mentioned the provider to branding is not done for commercial reasons, but in order to keep the compatible phone (and shouldn't even be illegal to debrand). So I think it should be ok.

  Yes, they are a lot of questions that may seem ridiculous. I got this phone for several years, so I want to know all about it. Thanks to all those who can help you meet them, and keep up the good work with phones

  3GP is the native video recording format. All you need is the codec on your PC to read. I downloaded a free transcoder and it not only transcode avi (and other formats) for me, but also to put the codec appropriate in what I can play natively without transcoding. QuickTime, I think a codec were also held. There are plenty of audio and the recorded video.

  Hmmm... haven't really tried to do... worst case, of course you can rename them later.

  In fact, storm BBs use two detection of heat as well as the physical press. It's called SurePress technology. Heat detection determines where on the screen you touch and then physical pressure activates the 'click' somehow. The entire screen is great physical button, whose activity is determined by your finger on the screen position when you press. As such, I doubt it'll work with gloves on at all. I know, on the ski slopes, I remove my glove to do something with my 9550.

  On the BB, a port for all functions. Micro USB for charging and attached USB data transfer. When connected to a PC with the drivers installed, the BB will be time load (from the USB port of the PC) as well as allow the transfer of data.

  Technically, the BB model is unrelated to the size of the SD card, it supports. It is rather a function of the OS level that the BB is running according to the instructions this KB:

  What this site is fake. If you happen to be in a business with BES (or purchase hosted BES) environment, you can indeed have the enhanced features that allow only to BES.

  Applications can be installed via the data cable as long as they meet the necessary criteria to make according to this KB:

  If you have the .jad file, which can simply be copied on the BB and then executed on the BB to install the application.

  Yes, you can download themes (I have to admit no experience with this...) I found no need to use themes that I need my BB to feature what I need... themes he dressed simply in my humble OPINION). I have no idea on how to create themes.

  This issue is not that I consider as responsible. Everyone has their particular circumstances they need to meet. The features of the search machine and the frequency ranges of carriers that you want to run. Then choose the device that fits your specific needs.

  Without no doubt... but this isn't an authoritative answer. And you will not be able to receive replies by authorities here. Basically, upgraded the specs for OS 6.0 here:

  With the series Storm conspicuous by their absence, I consider any current to be candidates for the OS6.0 storms. But it is indeed in my humble OPINION.

  But I'm not sure of your premises. You seem to be saying that you are locked in your level of update of carriers, as long as your BB is blocked. This is false. Unlocking is simply the function to allow your BB run on a network of different carriers... at the level of the BONE is irrelevant to that. You are free to use the carriers released OS for your specific model BB... There is just a tiny thing that you need to follow. But unlocking is not necessary to do so. There's nothing illegal or anything about unlocking. But it is useless unless and until you want to reverse your BB to another carrier.

The version of the OS in the mine is 7.1.0.746 (2108), I was invited by the service 7.1 bundle downgrade and backup center 1646, which I am not ready to do what it takes forever and I have to reinstall all the software back and set up e-mail.

Why my phone should behave mumb silent n when I get a phone call or have to do one and the is to run return is of restarting it.

  This happens usually when application runs in the background, or because of any unknown third-party application installed within our system, or due to lack of memory. Reboot to shoot some time A battery is enough to solve this problem. If press and hold the Menu for a few seconds, it will appear a screen that will display all the programs running in the background, usually five will always be there (host, BBM, Message, phone, browser) you can always check if any other applications. are running in the background, if they then close them properly.

  We should always try to close Applications correctly - avoid using key end to close the applications because it just minimizes the application and let it run in the background. Instead, press the Menu key, select close or Exit to exit the application. Do not leave your browser open on a page of Web active when not in use. If programs are running in the background, that this will lead to problems that you are experiencing now. Please take a look at this Article, I don't know that it will help you overcome your problems:

• BlackBerry Smartphones type in Japanese on a CURVE 9320

  Can someone tell me if it is possible to write emails in Japanese language on a BB CURVE 9320? If so, how?

  I recently bought a BB CURVE 9320 and software, although able to display Japanese characters in an e-mail, does not allow typing in the Japanese language. I checked a lot of device software revisions, but the Japanese never shows in the language selection list.

  Thanks for the help!

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  Please read carefully this KB:

  • KB05305 Location of support for BlackBerry smartphones

  The ability to use for different purposes, different languages on a BB is a function of having the right OS package installed for BB. This details KB on the complexities of achieving what you desire. Once you determine, based on all the factors, the package of operating system that you need, you would seek it through this Portal:

  • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/apps-and-software/desktop-and-device-download-sites.html

  Before continuing, please visit this thread to make sure that you have a good backup so that you can properly restore everything as you go along:

  • http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/General-BlackBerry-functions-and/backup-the-data-on-your-BLAC...

  If a package which, by the KB above, should understand that need you then you must install this package of system operating for your BB. From a PC, you can install any compatible OS package (for example, for your BB model exact number) of a BB via this procedure:

  • http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/BlackBerry-device-software/how-to-reload-your-operating-syste...

  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. If this OS package comes from one carrier other carrier for which your BB was built, then remove, on your PC, all copies of the SELLER. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

  • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
  • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

  Don't forget that you remove, since your PC, any other BB OS devices as packages with more than one installed on the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.
