BlackBerry smartphones, upgrade one 8700 4.1... a problem with the Desktop Manager?

I bought this phone as a gift (it has been used only for 3 days so it shouldn't me hardware failures) and am always adapt to it.

The OS is v4.1.0.351, and I expect to give it a bit more use by updating the operating system. Unfortunately, whenever I try to update using a downloaded package and the Desktop Manager (or the line "update" that crosses the D.M., he tells me that my OS is most recent possible. I tried to update a number of times but without success. D.M. is not necessary for updates and does not give me an opportunity to use a downloaded package.

My carrier is T-Mobile, but I am paid in advance (with a BlackBerry, I'm the 8th grader more cool on the block... too bad I'm 22) and the phone is unlocked to all carriers.

Thank you very much!

Hi and welcome to the Forums!

You use this page to get the updated package?

And also according to their complete instructions? If the lot you DL/install on your PC is identical to what is already installed on the BB, which would explain the results you get.

I suspect that you do not use the package totally correctly is enhanced by the present:

DTM does not such an offer... what you do is to install the package on your PC at the top of the DTM. Then, when you launch DTM, he will offer the update for your OS, but it does not technically she receives DL packaging or not I think. Can be semantic... but just to be clear.

Finally:

Your specific model of BB is still supported by TM? If not, then they won't be offers a package to update (and all you DL would be on their part is not valid in any case - the package must match exactly to your BB model number... no deviation at all). What you have to do is to pick up the package you want from another carrier and then use these instructions to install:

Good luck and let us know!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones social RSS/BB Core apps - not available in the Desktop Manager?

    Hello everyone. I'll have a bit of a problem with my Bold 9700 since update to Os 6. (Details attached).

    OS: 6.0 bundle 1676 (v 6.0.0.418) (platform 6.6.0.105)

    Career: Grameen phone (GP), Bangladesh

    Office Manager: 6.0.1.18 (released: December 6, 2010)

    When I connect my BB to the Manager of the Fund, under the 'Applications' tab it does not show any add/del/put option to update the base of BB applications i.e. - BBM, factory installled games or messengers installed (Gtalk, Msn etc.). The only thing displayed are some games/apps I downloaded when I was still with os 5 (attached image).

    I also want to add the stream of 'Social' and I understand that this is only possible through Desktop Manager. But, as shown above there is no option to do so.

    Is it because I'm on an operating system that is not yet certified by my career? Or something else altogether? What is the solution?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Concerning

    Ashraf

    That's the problem with the Office Manager. It will not show the basic BB apps now. To do this, you need to open Loader.exe, a part of the Desktop Manager separately. If you use a windows pc, here's how:
    For x 86 systems:
    C:/Program Files/Common Files/research in Motion/Apploader/Loader.exe
    For x 64 systems:
    C:/Program Files (x 86) /Common Files/research in Motion/Apploader/Loader.exe

    Run it and choose your device, type password if requested and then voila, you have everything you want.

    BB6 updates to 9700, social feeds app and syn music wireless apps are not installed, sometimes also all the BB extra apps such as games like brickbreaker and doc to go are not installed, then use loader.exe to make. Loader.exe can also update your device and let's you choose which you want to install or remove during the process of updating, requesting the dekstop manager now doesnot apps. So better to use loader.exe to update as well. Regarding the upgrade to an operating system not yet supported by your network, unless yu have a problem with your network, that is to say the calls or the internet, keep the last Os because it offers you more.

    All the info and other guides for all associated with blackberry and more are at crackberry, google it and you will get it.

  • Is blackBerry smartphones there a way to edit your contacts in the Desktop Manager?

    I'm trying to understand how to change your contacts via the Desktop Manager... is it possible?

    So now you have the contacts in Outlook?

    So, edit your contacts in Outlook, get them as you want.

    And then you use the Desktop Manager > Sync > back to your BlackBerry.

    You are doing things.

    You cannot edit contacts directly in Desktop Manager... it doesn't work just like that on a BlackBerry, as users might be accustomed to using a Palm, which has its own separate software to do this. BlackBerry decided not to reinvent the wheel by creating a whole new software, when many many users already have a demand on their PC that does it well.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones stopping incoming emails when it is connected to the Desktop Manager

    Hi all

    Me, stupidly, recently upgraded to the new v6 of DM when you are prompted to do so.   Since then, I was not able to prevent emails coming wireless when my BB is connected on the software.   I WANT THAT ABILITY BACK!

    OK, I realize I am perhaps odd in not wanting to have to deal with emails twice (Office AND on my BB) but I've been happily using my BB to the untethered email only.

    So the question is: How can I stop my BB receive emails when plugged in the DM?   (I have not yet tried roll back to the previous version of DM as that shocks a bit my sense of progress.)

    Any suggestions out there?

    Z

    I removed 6.0 DM and re-installed DM5.0 and everything is now working back again as it was.

    RIM need to consider seriously any roll outs of the "update" software like what they've done is wet off clients at best a beta version, with fewer features, but hey, the interface looked good!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BB does not synchronize with the Desktop Manager

    Suddenly, my BB 8220 does not synchronize with my Desktop Manager. He tries to synchronize the calendar and then I get an error message: BlackBerry desktop has encountered a problem and needs to close. It should also synchronize my contacts and tasks, but does not get it until now. My DeskTop Manager is version 4.3. All solutions?

    Hey ShelleyPringle,

    Welcome to the community of BlackBerry Support Forums.

    I suggest you upgrade your BlackBerry Desktop Software and then try to sync.

    Go to www.blackberry.com/desktop to get the software and then try to perform the synchronization.

  • Blackberry blackBerry Smartphones new user... not so happy with the storm so far

    Recently, I upgraded my LG Storm for the Blackberry Storm, and he received the day after Christmas.  I spent all night on the phone with Verizon customer service trying only why my phone keeps restarting and stopping himself.  This was even after I download Blackberry Desktop and put Manager upgraded to the new software.  Verizon's CS could not understand why this has happened and shipped me another one which is schduled to arrive not later than Tuesday.  Im a bit annoyed because I originally for the curve but I knew that the curve had been out for a while and I wanted to not Verizon to go out with the curve of new and improved (8900) because I would not like that... lol... and I got the storm to an as much (149.00) I could not beat this price.  When the phone has not been rebooted itself with that I managed to play it a little bit and it is really easy to use outside the switching of the letters and numbers when text mode n landscape.  Bus, aside from that, the email and myspace for mobile installation was child's play.  I hope the next I get works or well I will return it for the curve.  If anyone has heard or have lived this restart/stop function let me know...

    sincerely for the time being not happy with user of storm

    You do not have to have an account or access to the BIS server - but if you do, you can do things like send your service books or the program installation/change on your BB email accounts without having to call your service provider (i.e. Verizon).  Account e-mail setup/changes can be done form the device but I don't know a way to return the service form books the unit itself - I think that you are only option are access via the BIS site I've provided or call the technical support of your provider.

  • Help for BBM blackBerry Smartphones & Facebook does not not for 9320 - problem with "host Routing Table? -Virgin

    So, today I received my new 9320 at Virgin Mobile, first Blackberry & love the phone! but I can't use the BBM or Facebook app...

    At first I could not even access the browser while that connected to my wifi... then I phoned Virgin & they helped me to reset the settings on my BB that I could use the browser etc...

    I thought it was problem solved, until I discovered BBM and Facebook, use app world separate service? Anyway, I phoned up to Virgin because I wanted to do this job, they are included in my package & I did not understand why I can't access any of them...

    After a long phone call the problem has proved that the "host routing table" was empty and (according to in Virgin) there is a problem with new BlackBerry receiving these details... they said this isn't a problem on the end there & told me there is nothing more they can do so to click 'register now' and wait for the details...

    24 hours later and nothing, so I hope someone here can help me, make me a BB the whole point is things miss me actually lol and I feel now I'm paying for a phone contract I can't really use it, without any help from my provider?

    Any help?

    Or

    Anyone with a new BB knows something like that recently? Thank you

    Wow... Virgin you gave really there. You see, you PAY for 100% of your services and 100% of your formal support... at the moment, they seem to be or you deliver. Only they have the ability (in fact the RESPONSIBILITY!) to degenerate RIM requiring improved support of cases (from your description, it must be that... with a HRT empty, nothing that anyone here can do). End users have no free path to receive assistance from the RIM at all - only via the escalation. So, what I would do if I were you, is their ring back... but this time do not let you fob OFF... insist that, because you HAVE them, you have a contract with them and they are about to be in violation of this contract - they must solve your problem, degenerate into RIM if they wish.

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry smartphone Outlook 2003 will not be synchronized with the Desktop Manager 5.0

    I just bought a Blackberry 8900 and have installed Desktop Manager 5.0 on my PC.  I can't get my BB to sync with Outlook 2003.  When I try to configure synchronization settings, I selects the device app and click Calendar.  Then it asks what application I want to synchronize with and I select Microsoft Outlook.  Then I select two way sync (although I tried both of the clocks of a both ways and I have the same message).  I then click on elements only future transfer.  Then I get a runtime error: value of the Option is unacceptable.  Check the properties of the option.  I tried to uninstall Desktop Manager, and put it back - both from the provided CD and also on the BB site.  Any ideas on what I can do to get the sync to work?

  • Hello from blackBerry Smartphones and SOS: address book cannot be restored via BB Desktop Manager

    I am an absolute techtard who was simply trying to free up memory card space so I can transfer songs on my BB to my iTunes on my Mac and of course fixing a problem leads to another and it really starts to avalanche.

    Would be very grateful if anyone can help, here goes:

    Technical specification:

    Unlocked Pearl 8120, v4.5.0.55 (Platform 2.7.0.68) software, I don't know if this is relevant, but I'm using this in Hong Kong.

    How I messed up:

    1 tried to format media card, but he refuses to let me do if BB is hooked to the Mac or offshore. Also only went the battery.

    2. media checked card: total space is 970 MB and I only left 144KO. Weird because I have a few pictures and notes other than the email service and I just cleaned my cache of box and the browser of sms.

    3. delete unnecessary files: a few photos and memos remain, but they cannot take that much space I think

    4. search through forum discussions: decided to try cleaning the memory.

    5 save address book and address book - all (no idea what the difference is, but all the two doing anyway) on the BB Desktop Manager, saved memos upward as well.

    6. permit the garbage collection. Map of recorded media. Status quo.

    7 checked another forum thread that says I can, and that you should remove "Address book" of garbage collection service.

    8. panic and I tried to remove the 'address book' but it wasn't an option. Decided to clean all other components one by one in the hope to make more room, chose 'Search certificate' and he cleaned my complete address book.

    9 returned to BB Desktop Manager, Contact selected and clicked "restore." At both options i.e. full and partial restoration for the address book and address book - all.

    My directory is always empty.

    Tried to restore my memos too but BB Desktop Manager doesn't show me how do or no results under the help section of return. Mode techtard true, then check my memos - always there. Phew. These are emails and sms - are.

    Since I am a techtard, I didn't save my address book on my Mac (which would be the next big leap after I synced my BB with my Mac tonight).

    So it was back to discussions of the forum again and I saw one that said "uninstall the RIM DTM software, then reinstall it" of sdgardne. I do not have this stuck under his wire because I'm dead desperate for some attention, so I thought I would start a fresh appeal for help instead.

    My fear is that if I uninstall the software RIM DTM, then I'll lose all my addresses and memos. Isn't it based? Are there other solutions at all?

    I apologize for this long a spiel but I hope that the information could be useful to anyone who is kind enough to accumulate his brain to help out me here.

    Thanks heaps!

    Hi JSanders,

    Obstacles such as a switch office of personnel IT delayed my thanks for your advice... I didn't have any backup and has been quietly sad / happy for a few days for the sudden wipeout so miraculously reappeared all addresses.

    My outgoing HE said guy thanks to my Mac office and Outlook software - it was not very useful and does not specify because it was really flooded in his last days at work. New this GUY was looking to highlight a little so it took me a while to understand how save my address book (BB Gmail and Apple address book) and empty the memory card (multimedia card somehow reformatting tried-tested-guaranteed solution) escaped me.

    So everything is in working order, very much appreciate your advice and IrwinII too! Keep well!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones do you know what are my problems with my camera and how to solve?

    Mine is Curve 3 G running OS 6. I have 3 years now.

    Never installed any themes. I removed all languages, except for English and mandarin. Obtained third-party applications, which are whatsapp and screen grabber. I also youtube, twitter and yahoo messenger but I think that they are developed by rim. I uninstalled the default games from the early days, owner of the device and never install others. I also removed the maps and the world of blackberry. In any case, they are useless.

    I don't store a lot of pictures and the ones I did on my ram external 2gigs. I have not all media files. Just the default values.

    I join 1 group and it's not active. I don't have multiple conversations. I end conversations as soon as they are finished. BBM contacts grow about 1-2 monthly and phone books from 3 to 5 every week. I am a seller.

    I delete e-mails from the unit as soon as I finished reading the. Never navigation because the browser kills each front page loaded completely, making me unable to use youtube.

    I remember regular cleaning to run hourly.

    I do battery pull everyday because I'm tired of waiting for the clock or the gel to disappear, which could take more than half an hour if I let them which of course eventually crashing.

    Never have data backup because the device freezes the second I connect it to the PC with desktop blackberry on.

    So the question is do you know what are my problems and how to solve? Because I did not.

    Hello

    Well... We must memory cleaner is enabled, this feature is known to cause many problems!

    Try a battery pull reboot and let us know.

  • The blackBerry Smartphones file invalid Media - you can not synchronize with the folder to import from video files

    I use Desktop Software 6.0.0.43 and get the above message when I try to add a folder to synchronize the video. The same process has worked well for music and photos, but not for video.

    Any suggestion would be appreciated. I have to admit I'm lost on this one.

    Thank you

    This means that you cannot synchronize a folder that youv'e ' e defined as import for the videos location.

    So, if you put videos to import in c:\videos

    You cannot synchronize this folder.

    (Since then, you would just be sync through the stuff on the phone that you have imported the phone).

    Change your import file should solve the problem.
