• BlackBerry Smartphones using my curve as a Modem...

  Just, I got my curve about a week ago and was informed by the seller to alltel, I could download the software for my phone to use it as a modem, but now I can't get any support or help with this.  I am running Vista on my laptop and I need to do what I'll be traveling and going to college online.  Can someone tell me how do I contact someone or get some kind of help?  I would really appreciate it.  I'm about to throw the phone and cancel my travel plans.

  I can't give you an answer regarding where the software can be found. But, as a student who travels all week and has taken an online course or two, I can offer the folling tips: using the BB as a modem will work, but it is generally as fast as a dial-up line. It's perhaps not fast enough for some online courses, especially those who have streaming video conferences, for example. In addition, do research for essays to these slow speeds can be painfully slow and tedious. Although it is not as convenient (and more expensive), I had much better luck looking for good quality WiFi hotspots to take care of my work in the classroom. The extra time spent to find one will be partially offset by the opportunity to spend less time in line with the much faster connection. But, everyone has different needs and what works for me may not be better for someone else. Good luck with your studies.

• Smartphones using blackBerry curve as a modem. What is the villain?

  Need to be on the corporate network?

  Current Vaca. Want to use with the laptop if possible

  Since you're on VZW, the instructions for you to follow would be the entire CDMA. I can not you if you have a proper plan of the Association to allow this feature... try it and, if it does not, contact the ASBL and ask if your plan with them allows you to use your BB as modem for your PC captive. They can then tell you if you have the right plan and costs associated with the use of it.

• Why can't connect using Apple Airport WIFI of my remote security cameras but can connect using the Xfinity WIFI Modem/Router open?

  Why can't connect using Apple Airport WIFI of my remote security cameras but can connect using the Xfinity WIFI Modem/Router open?

  Two possibilities:

  (1) your airport WiFi might have a network name that is not in line with best practices, wireless

  A good wireless network name is...

  ... In short no more than 20 characters

  Simple... no special characters like an apostrophe, dollar sign, asterisk, etc.

  Compact, without spaces in the name

  For example, a wireless network network name as... red .dfedoryk Apple wireless network... .is not what you want. Something like... .dfedorykwireless. .. masse are much more likely to connect to non-Apple devices.

  Same guidelines your password

  (2) Apple gives the same name to network 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz network that produces double router band.  Some non-Apple devices are confused by the present, you may need to use the option to assign a different name for the network of 5 GHz on the router from Apple. Then, 'point' your device to the network name specific to which you want to connect.

  Hello

  I googled around a lot and have found that, according to the people, that it is not guaranteed to be 100%, it will work. I pay for BIS. I had 3 (Sweden) and it's a bold 9700. Is there a way I'll be able to use it as a 3g modem?

• BlackBerry smartphones using the Micro SDHC 8 GB in Curve 8330

  Hello

  Is someone using a Micro SDHC 8 GB card in their Verizon Blackberry 8330?

  I can't seem to get a straight answer on whether or not it will work.

  Thank you

  Currently, smartphones BlackBerry running the following versions of BlackBerry® Device Software will support until the displayed size.

  BlackBerry Device Software Media card size limit           

  BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.0 up to 2GB

  BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.1 up to 4 GB

  BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.2 up to 4 GB

  BlackBerry Device Software 4.3.0 up to 8GB

  It should work. However, some people complained that the 8 GB cards were hit or miss. I hope that support will be better with the next version of the operating system.

• BlackBerry Smartphones USE FOR CURVE 8520 WIFI

  I recently bought a blackberry curve 8520 with Fido. My phone is connected to my wifi at home, but I want to assure you that I'm strictly using data NOT wifi (because I don't have a data plan). I noticed that in a network public wifi, a red asterisk * - appears on the WiFi icon in the upper right of the phone. Like this:

  (the WiFi symbol is surrounded to demonstrate what I mean when I say WiFi symbol and the asterisk appeared like this)

  

  However on my home network, if it says it is connected, the asterisk does not appear. As you can see it it says "Fido-peanut" (my router name) which means that Yes, I'm "connected..." BUT without the red asterisk on the wifi symbol (with my home WiFi) does that mean that I am not connected correctly?  I called Fido and the CSR said she thinks she has something to do with login password in public WiFi, but she's not sure.

  The problem seems to be this: when I go on 'The Mobile Network Options' to activate ""data services ' OFF(to make sure that I am only using wifi and no data), the connection fails and I get this message: "

  

  

  

  When I turn it on, I am able to connect.

  

  

  For ""connection preference ": "

  what setting should I put if I don't want to use any WIFI data BUT?  Yes, the obvious answer would be to choose "WI - Fi" only, but this means that I won't be able to call/text because my mobile connection turns off.

  

  So, how can I make sure I'm really only using wifi and not data when both the data service is turned ON and my wifi is 'connected '?

  It is a list of what I've done:

  (1) the HOTSPOT USER - check.

  (2) insterted PIN provided by the phone to my dlink router (via online)

  (3) tried the push button configuration

  (4) restarted my router/modem

  5) there is a check mark next to the WiFi connection:

  

  It would seem that I am connected to Wifi, but again, to reiterate, that I would like to ask if the WiFi is the ONLY thing I use and not data.

  Thank you!

  It's pretty simple... IF you are connected to your network Mobile disabled (no phone calls or SMS) you will use ONLY WiFi. Only. As long as you have the 'white' dashboard and the name of the network "green peanut butter", you are connected to WiFi, but without BIS BlackBerry data services.

  If you disable Data Services, you will not be able to use data in any form (via WiFi or Mobile network, if it is enabled.)

  No BlackBerry data plan, you will be able to use the WiFi hotspot browser and some few third-party apps like Pandora radio.

• Smartphone blackBerry Bold 9900 - Modem

  Can I use my Bold 9900 as a modem attached with other phones (android or iOs)?

  The "official" OS 7.1 cannot have been released by your carrier yet.  If Yes, go ahead and load it.  If not, you can download the operating system of any company in the world.  Here are the instructions to do so:

• BlackBerry Smartphones using the 8300 BB as a PDA with Verizon

  I was considering buying a BB 8330 with the express purpose to have the PDA features.  I don't want to connect to the e-mail or use the internet features.  I don't want to connect to my computer via the USB port and the calendar, phone book and contacts in my Outlook file and all of the notes that I add as I do now with an older Palm Pilot PDA.  Verizon is telling me that I need an additional data package in order to transfer data between the computer and the BB.  Is this correct?  Can I use the BB as an independent PDA service Verizon 8330?

  In addition, my Palm has the ability to transfer a Wrod or computer Excell file and edit it and post it on the PDA.  The 8330 will do that?

  Is a software that comes with the Smartphone needed and available to allow these functions?

  Again, all I want from Verizon is the telephony service.  All this I want to do it through USB and the computer.

  Your answer will determine if I buy the BBs as Christmas gifts for my wife and myself or stick with my old phone and get a new PDA to stand alone.  Thank you for your help in making this decision.

  Harold

  But not what I wanted to hear, he confirmed my question.  The real loss here is BlackBerry with a customer lost through Verizon.  I can not afford any additional service and will not pay use features that should not even involve the telephone operator.

  Thank you all for your answers.

• BlackBerry Smartphones use Storm 2 as PDA WiFi-Connected (without telephone service)?

  RESOLVED:
  See the second post in this thread for the solution (thanks to wiggler forum member)

  ORIGINAL MESSAGE:

  [I know I am a "retarded" for even bringing this place, but we'll just go beyond the part and talk about what I really want to know here ]

  My wife and I went to an Android (Bionic) for me and an iPhone (4 s) for her. However, his old phone (Storm 2) has recently been replaced because his former 1 storm went wrong on her... and now, since my father thought finally get something to replace his old (not to mention, broken and unusable) Palm device, we thought we might as well give him the Storm 2 and see if it'll work out for what he wants.

  Here's the deal about my father and his PDA... already has a cell phone, so he won't move up to a smart phone, because he does not want to pay the extra money every month just to get a PDA phone when he probably never really use the data service much and all that.

  He wants a phone just to be a phone, and he also wants a PDA... just for the PDA part.

  So, I thought, very well... If he is not willing to move completely in the modern era, then we can at least give him something he can synchronize with Outlook (it works... I already tried) to have its calendar and contacts with him all the time (which it is not able to do with his simple mobile).

  So what I know is that it's possible, at least in a very limited sense... I have the Storm 2 sync with Outlook.
  However, here's my problem... for a reason, even if the wifi card appears to connect to the wifi here in their home access point, it is not actually get an IP address and can't get out on the internet with the browser integrated into all.

  My question is this...
  Is it because it is not possible (i.e. RIM has configured to disable the card wifi within the unit while there is no mobile phone service connected), or who should run, and I should watch more in the sense of something wrong at the level of the home network?

  The reason why I think that it could be something awkward like that within the device itself, it is my new Android and iPhone of the wife are able to connect to the network wireless home here very well.

  Sorry for such a long thing, goofy needs help, but I thought it is a good starting point. If anyone has ideas and is willing to help, please chime.

  p.s. I am a computer scientist. So I have that aspect covered... at least you do not work with a complete * beep * if you jump here.

  I thought about it. I did a search on google for the specific message I saw in 'wi - fi tools' (which was "no longer valid"ip address ") and found this thread...
  http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/other-BlackBerry-smartphones/IP-address-no-longer-valid/TD-p/...

  The second post there (from wiggler), gave me the fix I need.
  Thank you!  :-)

• BlackBerry 8330 smartphones used to synchronize with Outlook

  When hang on my Curve 8330 to my cell phone synchronization does not work. I get no error messages either.  I don't have this problem until I installed Blackberry theme Builder.  I had to uninstall the Desktop Manager so that the theme generator complete installation.  NOT worth to install, incidentally.  Generator theme uninstalled, reinstalled Desktop Manager, uninstalled, reinstalled, etc..  No chance it to synchronize.  Verizon could not solve the problem either, by sending me a new device.  Don't know if it's a problem of device or a laptop.

  Desktop Manager version 5.0.1

  Curve 8330 os 4.5.0.138

  Verizon Wireless

  Does anyone else have this problem?

  Okie dokie... now try these:

  • KB10178 No data is synchronized during the synchronization of data using BlackBerry Desktop Manager, and there is no errors
  • KB01451 How to enable Sync advanced logging if a wired synchronization fails
  • KB11827 Intellisync does not synchronize information on the BlackBerry smartphone and does not display an error message

  and see if something happens to be useful.

  See you soon!

• Switching devices blackBerry Smartphones using the Desktop Manager

  I just got my Torch 9800 replacement since my first only the battery was drainning (apparently a common problem).

  Until I returned my old Torch 9800 I backed up and also used the device switch option in Desktop Manager. When it asked me to connect the new device, I unplugged the old camera, he took to the shop orange and then plugged my new camera.

  Then an error has occurred and asked me to update the software on the new device. I did it... and then when I use switching devices, it asks me to connect the current device but the problem is... I don't have the camera more.

  As I backed up all the data, I did a restore. He restored most of the data, but it has not restored my apps.

  Any idea on how I can do?

  I hope it is interesting all that.... and I get a better battery life this time!

  Hi and welcome to the Forums!

  Ah... never mind. While the device switch Wizard can indeed move a few apps, the backup/restore process does not have applications. So, in the State you are in, you must go to the source of your applications and re - get them. If you by AppWorld, the process is very smooth:

  • KB17625 How to install or transfer has already purchased apps from BlackBerry App World for BlackBerry smartphone

  If you have from other sources, then you should see if these sources are a simple way for you. I hope you have good record of all your activation keys... and some will indeed have to be regenerated some developers to attach the key on the BB SPINDLE, which is now different since you have a new device.

  Good luck!

• BlackBerry Smartphones using two BB with the same account of Blackberry.

  Currently, I have a BB 9900 and is considering obtaining a BBZ10. The 9900 has a standard sim card by which the Z10 I think a micro sim. (I still have to talk to my service provider relating to the regime of a sim 2)

  Is it possible to use two phones at the same time, if my provider allows, regarding BB services etc. using the same account etc?

  I thought that I have addressed this before first topic to contact my ISP.

  Thank you.

  Kind regards.

  You ask the subject from the BBID even on both devices?

  Yes, to a certain extent, on the data.

  E-mail and social accounts like Facebook and Twitter works perfectly.

  BlackBerry Messenger will use only a BBID on a device at a time... If you have the same BBID on both devices, you will need to choose which will be your active BBM.

  Of course, the main question to this is if your mobile operator will allow two SIM cards with the same account. Doubtful.

• BlackBerry Smartphones using the calendar/Agenda when you don't have a data plan.

  Hi all, I just got a BB Curve 9320 model to replace my LG dead.  I use the phone for my convenience only but I fondly I remember my old Palm Pilot and it's wonderful calendar application that allows me to keep track of my life and where I was supposed to be and when.  I had hoped that the curve would be able to do the same thing with its calendar function.  I thought that using the BB desktop and connect my laptop to enable them to communicate that I would have the same function, like the Palm Pilot has made in my previous life of the curve.  Unfortunately, I have not been able to get it to operate than I had imagined... I do something bad or without the data plan is - it simply not possible?

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  What is wrong is your waiting... what you expect is not a feature designed... a few things to discuss... so bear with me...

  Unlike other how things, RIM does not provide a desktop PIM. Others force you to use their PIM and only their PIM. RIM provides a driving software that works as a bridge between your PIM and the BB. See this compatible PIM KB:

  • KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager to synchronize

  So, to do what you want requires the use of a desktop PIM for your data... Choose a compatible PIM (from above). Then, enter your data in the PIM Office. Next, configure the BB to sync with the PIM:
