BlackBerry Smartphones Upgrade OS to 4.5 without modifications

Can I upgrade and keep my same icons so I do a prior full backup and then restore some files? If so, how?

The upgrade should restore all your themes. It really should.

  • BlackBerry smartphones remove security settings of 8820 without access to PC

    I recently acquired a 8820, but I can't remove the security settings.  I'm currntly do not have access to a PC to connect the device to.  is there a way to delete the settings?  Thank you.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Exactly what 'security settings' you are asking about? Only these words, there are a lot of possibilities...

    My guess - if your BB has a policy due to have been associated with a BES environment

    • KB30076 How to check for an it on a BlackBerry smartphone policy

    and if you want that political removed, then see this KB:

    • KB14202 How to remove a policy from IT to a BlackBerry smartphone

    You will notice that methods 1, 2 and 3 require the admin BES to do something... If you are no longer associated with the BES, then these methods do not work, which leaves... method 4 not requiring connection to a PC.

    On the other hand, if I guessed wrong, then please specify exactly what 'Security Settings' you're curious about.

    Thank you and let us know!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones pop3 e-mail set up without BES, BIS, or data plan

    I just bought an unlocked storm2 free and clear - no contract (upgraded from curve without data plan). I have continuous wi - fi, as my internet company offers me unlimited wi - fi access wherever I go in the USA, so my plan is to access my mail via a wi - fi connection.

    Pop3 e-mail is established as possible without data plan, BIS or BES? Is there a 3rd party email application available for blackberry as well as for the pc where you can set up software left 3rd (ms outlook, ms express, etc.) for your email.

    Now the only way I can verify that my email address is in you connecting to the internet via wi - fi and going to my Internet service provider's web site. It's a chore, but as I have to go through several steps before I can actually check my email.

    Thank you. I just looked at gmail and I think it is the best solution right now for email via wi - fi. In fact, he let me do a pop3 e-mail, set up (or imap in option), so I'm good. I check emails fast.

    Another option, I looked in must simply send my emails from MS Outlook to one of these email service based on the web (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc), but ultimately, gmail is the best option because of its pop3 / imap capabilities.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Upgrade causes the connection Bluetooth to the desktop software does not work

    I'm a business traveler road warrior who lives and dies by my BlackBerry synced with my laptop.  I just spent most of November on the road and worked hard the BB and laptop.  The two worked perfectly.  I was able to sync the BB to the laptop with Bluetooth or USB cable and not problems.  Since I was AT & T, I could use the BB as a modem for laptop and get 3G service everywhere wherever I was going.  Life was good back in the day... November 2010.

    Then... I get some downtime and decide to meet the guests of the BlackBerry software desktop that there are updates available for the desktop software and software of the device of 9000 "BOLD".  I decided that since I have no immediate need and criticism so I can update.  So I update.

    I updated the software to version 5. something to 6.0.0.43 version.  Once the software has been updated, I get a prompt to upgrade the 9000 to a new version of software for device.  So I move from 4.6.something to 5.0.0.82 2.

    I do a couple of synchronization with the USB cable and I feel good.  Then I try to sync using bluetooth.  No joy.  Unable to get the desktop software to see the Blackberry.  The 9000 "BOLD" connects to Windows 7 OK and I can even use the laptop as a speaker.

    So I go through the "Add bluetooth device" menu and office procedures.  During the search of a device discoverable bluetooth, the 9000 "BOLD" is so I clicked and respond OK.  Then I went back to the Bluetooth Configuration screen where nothing appears.  I can't add the 9000 "BOLD" for Desktop software.  Something is not.

    Nothing is more exasperating to have everything to work perfectly, apply the updates recommended by the provider of the software, and then have things get broken and stop working.  Before after the Desktop software prompts to upgrade, I worked flawlessly.  After you apply the upgrade of Desktop software and device software upgrade, I can not connect with Bluetooth.

    I searched on the Internet until I no longer have to read in order to find a solution but can't seem to find a solution.  Maybe I'm just angry with RIM and these horrible upgrades that utility that I really liked.

    Let me answer a few questions before someone decides to help him.

    Is your BlackBerry detectable, so she can be found and associated with?  Yes, I updated the device discoverable.

    You can pair your BlackBerry with Windows 7 64 bit?  Yes.  No problem.  I can use the laptop running Windows 7 64 bit as a speaker with the BB.

    Could you have made other changes that may have caused the problem?  Nope.  I did not follow the guidelines of RIM in updgrading Desktop software and device software.  I suppose that, in this case, I followed the destruction of the RIM.

    You do backup your BlackBerry 9000 "BOLD" before upgrading the device software?  Yes.  I'm not stupid and don't trust any upgrade for the exact reasons, I'm writing on this forum.

    You have a Windows 7 restore set where you can go back to a point in time before you upgraded the Software Desktop 5 point. something to 6.0.0.43?  Yes.  I have a restore point.

    Do you have confidence that you can do both a restore of Windows 7 to get something back to 5. AND then to restore the device to 4.6.something?  Man, that thought makes me sick at heart.  I trust both RIM and MSFT to do their work and we know that RIM was screwed up, or I wouldn't be here today.

    Can anyone help with obtaining of BlackBerry Desktop Software 6.0.0.43 (updated 5.something) version to see and the pair with a BlackBerry 9000 "BOLD" which had 6.0.0.43 improve software 4.6.something to 5.0.0.82 device 2?

    It is confirmed.  5.0.0.82 2 is total c * p.  Who knows what complete insanity due to RIM out a such terrible and wounded many customers update.

    I was able to downgrade from 5.0.0.82 2 to 4.6.0.304.  Compatible bluetooth and connected seemlesly, even if the connection has been very sloew the order of minutes of time to the Desktop Manager.

    Here are the instructions to downgrade.

    1 remove the newer operating system of your PC by going to control panel > Add/Remove programs.

    2. next, download and install the earlier version of the operating system. BlackBerry operating system downloads

    Find here the operating systems:

    http://BlackBerryFAQ.com/index.php/BlackBerry_Operating_System_Downloads

    3. install the older operating system to the computer by running (double click) the downloaded file.

    4. go into c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."

    (I had to look for vendor.xml as I have Windows 7, but when I found and deleted things work as described).

    5. plug in the BB and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

    These instructions worked like a charm.  Connected to Desktop Manager and did a sync as soon as the 9000 "BOLD" restarted.  Apparently, the problem was my stupidly following the recommendation to upgrade the operating system to 5.0.0.82 2.

    Just another thing about the 5.0.0.82 2 upgrade... IT SUCKS DO NOT! The SMS is now garbage as it collects all text messages and combines a conversation and you cannot choose to delete or restart without deleting the text entering of this person and everything behind it. Until the Bugs are worked out stay away 5.0 versions (anything ending in par.822 and earlier) just my 2 cents worth

    I suggest that you go to 4.6 this latest OS 5.0.0.82 2 is broken.  RIM has published a BONE broken to the unsuspecting public.

  • E-mail blackBerry Smartphones upgrade error

    I have a torch 9800 and already two emails were put in place. Download phone messed up email and I am not able to access the e-mail box to manage my accounts or create new accounts.

    I could get the phone reset somehow, but this area of e-mail management now wants to upgrade to version 6.11.0419.0755. When I click NO, I still can't screen for managing my existing eemail. Thus, it seems that it is a Catch 22 and a bad. I should be able to reject any upgrade and continue to use the software.

    I made the suggested what I have read in this forum by going to att.blackberry.com and the other site but get an error when you use the launch button. 500 error page.

    I don't want to upgrade again because my phone is not working properly - this upgrade seems to affect the phone on all and not only electronic mail.

    News about the upgrade that will work properly or alternatives and why they don't work?

    Thank you
    Daria

    Hi David,

    About 500 error Page... I've seen where this happens when you try to access this site using a WiFi connection.  Disconnection from the WiFi and try to load the site via your 3G connection.

    Otherwise, excellent suggestion of HB.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones upgrade necessary?

    I just got a blackberry 9360 today and my phone says my software is up to date

    but when I plugged in my laptop to transfer data, it is said there is an update available the current package I have is 1680

    Quite possible... your Desktop Software he could recognize before update wireless of the handheld device.

    If you do not upgrade, ALWAYS cancel the update first and make your own backup to the desktop software.

    I tried:

  • 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.

    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:

  • BlackBerry Smartphones setting common POP / IMAP email without BIS

    Hello everyone!

    I'm new to BlackBerry and problems with the configuration of e-mail.

    My operator (Megafon, Russia) does not support BIS. So I use standard applications of BB with difficulty (for example, Internet browser works only in the WiFi area). However, I installed third-party applications to browser and messaging (opera and SmartMail) and they work with my internet GPRS / 3 G unlimited (using the APN settings).

    I have some problems with SmartMail - it loads the messages in a strange way (some are not loaded in all) and integrate fully into the device (for example - does not with 'send' option of address book). In regard to the Opera - it's OK, I use it often.

    Official website of BB (http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB10154), I see that there is a way to configure the standard to work with BlackBerry e-mail client running POP / IMAP (not 'push' technology) servers. But in my camera, I has such characteristic - there is only one option in the Setup Wizard (sounds like 'work installation using BlackBerry Enterprise Server email') and so just need to BIS/BES. Installation manual (that was in the box), there are TWO options - 'BES' and 'other' installation of the Messaging. I don't have one. Maybe it depends on the phone language or the country selected? Maybe for Russia, there are some features of 'cut '?

    I read recently in some post depends on my operator. But my operator has not only any service of BB at all! In my opinion, any good e-mail client MUST support POP / IMAP. I understand that PUSH-technology is great, but now it is not available for me.

    My device settings:

    -Blackberry Pearl 9105 3

    -Software v 5.0.0.884 (platform 6.2.0.94)

    Thank you much for the help!

    Hello

    Everything is rooted in this statement. See this FAQ for general guidance:

    BIS is the equivalent of the last level in this list... without it, you get no native email service (or any of the other exclusive services BB BIS-dependent).

    The KB you accessed is strictly for BIS customers... There is nothing else.

    BB do email differently by other devices. BBs do not natively have an e-mail on the device client. Rather, BIS works as an intermediary between the BBs and customers carrier/RIM-hosted email services. BIS checks e-mail services, and if there is something new, it brings to the BB. From the point of view of the BB, it's really the PUSH email.

    Other devices use ActiveSync similar things... a customer of e-mail on the device directly to check electronic mail services and pulling new things to the device. BBs isn't natively.

    So, the KB, you have found is questionable... it does apply if you have full bis service, that you can't get. As a result, you end up with 3 third-party solutions... and you need to talk to these developers of any issue you have with their application.

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BB Messenger won't work without a Wi Fi connection

    Have you noticed that I'm unable to send / receive messages unless I am connected to a WiFi network.  I was in Singapore last week and the only way I could use messenger was to use my laptop as a point using Connectify ad yes I had active data roaming, but I get exactly the same problem here in Scotland, if I send a msg, I get the icon 'pending' and nothing happens.  I talked to my service provider (Vodafone UK) today and they said that all of the required functions are in place, at their end settings seem correct, and that I should post something here.  It's really annoying because it is the main reason I bought a Blackberry!

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    As a user of the BB basis, when my office asked me if I wanted to move to OS 6.0.0.448, I said OK.

    I'm slowly maneuver my way around the changes (a warning would be nice).  The only thing that I miss is that my old ringtones disappeared.

    How can I get back them?  I read a post that said to download BBSAK, I did, and a .cob file, as I did, then he said go to the tab 'modify s/n' and choose 'Install s/n', but for me these buttons do not come up as a choice.  No idea what I did wrong or what I need to do?

    Thank you!

    You can get all the ringtones OS5 back by going to the following link on your phone: mobile.blackberry.com
     
    Scroll down the page until you get to the section "What's new", click on ringtones OS5 OS6 for download all previous ringtones.

  • Problems of blackBerry Smartphones upgrade my Curve 8520 to the new version of the 5.0 software

    Hello

    I tried to update my BB Curve with the new software last night... I supported everything first... he crossed the 4 step process of update, but blocked on "restart" & just stood there.

    I know he said do not interrupt or disconnect during the update, so I went to bed & leaves to do it's thing... after 6 hours, he had not moved, I had to kill it.

    Now I've lost my contacts, history, files etc... purpose that I know they are on my PC somewhere because the update system has done its own backup, so I have to be able to 'restore' myself...

    Please can you help me?

    Thanks in advance, Simon

    Hi & Welcome to the community... !!

    First of all, please let us know, reloading the OS on blackberry is successful or not, so successuful then gr8.

    Secondly, as you said, you supported your device first of all, if you can restore the data from there, other wise, you can recover from the default backup location, where DM is saved automatically.
