• 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 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...

  The second post there (from wiggler), gave me the fix I need.

• BlackBerry Smartphones downloaded Custom ringtones for different profiles?

  Hello

  Just had heavy PRIV top of page a few days ago and I'm trying to not to regret the purchase. I need help.

  For the life of me I can't find where to add a personalized ringtone or sound notification to my list of contacts other than the few that are already on the PRIVATE list. NO, don't tell me choose only those cables the list provided.

  On other Blackberry phones that I can download a sound or a song. I can't find the option for this on the PRIVATE if it is not that I'm back there. OVerpirced piece of fancy S * & %. I am beyond frustrated.

  Thank you.

  It is very easy to set custom ringtones for each contact you want... also add any sound as a ringtone.

  Install a file manager (I use ARE), copy any wav, ogg, mp3 audio file etc to/0/ringtones
  These will be immediately available.

  in your contacts list to change any contact (pencil top right corner), then hit up 3 points to the right and "set the tone".

• 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 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.

• Unlimited data plan for blackBerry Smartphones = use the internet free of charge?

  Hi guys, sorry im just a noob when it comes to phone plans. in any case here is my question. I have the blackberry bold 9700, my career is Rogers, and I have the data plan unlimited thing of service. Does that mean I can use the web browser built into the blackberry 'free of charge '. because I know that I can connect to my router with wi - fi, but I just want to know if unlimited plan data, if I can use internet on my phone without any charge

  Hi and welcome to the Forums!

  Any carrier the rules of what services are available and what they cost. This generic FAQ provides some information:

  • http://www.BlackBerryFAQ.com/index.php/What_do_I_need_a_Data_Plan_for%3F

  However, with hundreds of carriers in the world with dozens of different data plans, it is best to ask them directly for services that you have and at what cost. But, as a general rule, the built in browser BB requires a complete data BB plan (as stated in the FAQ). However, as also the FAQ, you can get another browser which may be able to work with all your services are that you have enabled your carrier.

  Good luck!

• BlackBerry Smartphones said Nextel ringtone is disabled on 8350i when Bluetooth is turned on... Is there a fix for it?

  Does anyone know if there is a fix or software update for this problem? The ringing of the phone is turned off whenever my bluetooth headset is activated. The phone will not ring, I only get the beep in the bluetooth. I drive a truck for a living, and miss me a lot of calls, because I can just hear the bluetooth beep on the sound of the truck.

  Technicians from Nextel to my local maintenance and repair center told me that it is a permanent framework with all phones Blackberry Curve and it cannot be changed. They did a software upgrade that solved my another problem of the speed dial works do not with bluetooth, but they say there is no solution at the moment to get the ringtone to work with bluetooth turned on.

  Someone at - it suggestions? It's frustrating kind of spending all that money on the phone and do not have a working key feature. I really need to be able to hear the phone ring when I'm in the big truck.

  Thank you all...

  No, Sir,

  I would like to get a replacement from Nextel, your telephone does not work correctly.

  To go less to the local NEXTEL store and have them use their Blackberry

  and let them show you it sounds with Bluetooth. I promise you this is a defect, they ring

  with Bluetooth connected.

  Thank you

• 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:

  Hello

  Maybe I'm new to using BB for first apology for a such ridiculous question.

  I have just delivered, and I am intrigued by the sticker on the side that says "when it is used in France, this equipment uses no harmonized frequency bands.

  I'm French and come home often enough, could someone tell me whether or not my phone works in France? I don't seem to find a simple answer online,

  Thank you very much for your time and advice, I have only 5 days to send it so inappropriate.
