BlackBerry smartphones, what to do before you sell my BB?

• BlackBerry smartphones, what's wrong with my Blackberry Bold 9930

  First the screen of my Blackberry would freeze upwards and it wouldn't let me do anything for a few minutes, so I had to take my battery out and then after that I took out my battery and put back in place he would have himself cut and wouldn't load, it would load at halfway then stop and try again. I use to have to take out the battery for a few days before its in so that he can turn it on but one day it does at all so I thought it was the battery but I just bought a new battery and its charging again to half way and stop and then try to load again, but it won't turn. Does anyone know what the problem with it... I have to wait a few days before you put the new battery in once again and then it will work or is the phone itself and I just need to get a new one?  Help, please.

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  Please try this sequence... Note that, throughout the whole 4h15m process, your BB should stay connected to a good charger (not the USB PC):

  1. With battery, connect your BB to the wall charger
  2. Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the screen not
  3. Remove the battery
  4. Wait 15 minutes
  5. Insert the battery
  6. Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the screen not

  This has been known to "revive" some BBs.

  It is also possible that your battery or BB has encountered a problem... to test, this sequence is necessary:

  1. Get a known good and already fully charge battery... use it in your BB and see what happens
  2. Get access to a BB good and the same known... use your battery in there and see what happens

  The results of this will show if your BB or your battery that has the problem. I realize that you have purchased a new battery, but please understand that 'new' and 'well known' are not necessarily the same thing... While it's rare, that a new battery cannot be subject to default. The best thing to do is to find someone with an identical BB which has no problem... to Exchange batteries and see what happens.

  In addition, the next thing is to try to start safe mode:

  • KB17877 How to start a smartphone BlackBerry in Mode safe

  It will take several attempts to get the combination of keys ESC (press/release/hold) OK, so be patient. When properly in Safe Mode, thinking... what happened just before this behavior started? A new application? An update? A theme? Something else? Think carefully that the slightest change can be causal... and try to undo all that was.

  Otherwise, your next steps become much more radical.

• BlackBerry smartphones, what happened to my memory? HEEEELLLLLLPPPP!

  Last night I updated my 8120 with the latest software available for me, that was the v45.0.124.  Before that, when I go my camera it said that I had about 40 or more photos.  Now, after update, I have 0 pictures on the left.  I checked my bytes and he said: I had over 9 million, and when I plugged my phone in the Desktop Manager, it said I had left 21Mo.  My question is why can't I save images or ringtones now?

  Hello

  This explains the photos.

  I strongly suggest that you get a media card.

  megabyte 10,2721 is what you had before the reset,

  megabyte 11,7538 what you were after.

  64 megabytes is what your phone is total.

  15 MB would be considered as minimum for your phone working properly.

  I suggest the following items and keep your approximately 20 MB of memory

  Just a tip, most people close the applications by pressing the ESC key or red. This does not close the applications.

  Each application has an option to close or exit. For example, if you are in the calendar, press the menu key (spotted) and scroll down to the bottom close is listed. You can see what is running by using the switch application option in the main menu.

  Thank you

• BlackBerry smartphones, what does the flashing light green?

  Hey all,.

  Have a curve 8330.  I know what the red and blue lights indicator means, but that means the light green?  I have no new messages or missed calls.  He started in the last two weeks.

  Thank you.

  Welcome to the forums

  The green light is usually an indicator of coverage. Go to Options > keyboard/screen and seeing set of coverage on the off position. Who help me?

  You can also try a battery pull:
  1. remove the battery while the phone is turned on
  2. wait a few seconds before inserting it again
  3. wait for the long end of the boot process (takes a few minutes usually)

  This clears most of the software problems that occur on the BlackBerry from time to time. You can also use Quickpull, a free application that simulates a battery pull without removing the battery: http://software.crackberry.com/product.asp?id=27660
  A battery pull gets lost when using the applications memory and clears minor software errors that creep over time. The blackberry is running an operating system just like your PC is running windows and battery pull is the equivalent of a reboot / restart your computer.

• BlackBerry smartphones, what is the maximum size MicroSD card that can be used in a 8310?

  I have browsed the positions and don't see it asked or answered.  What is the maximum size MicroSD card that can be used in a 8310?

  According to what your BlackBerry OS is tells you what size microSD card you can buy. You can check under Options | Topic (will appear as v4.xx.xxx). Look at the table on the following link to see what size you can get - http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB05461

• BlackBerry Smartphones what's the backlight on my Tour continue to?

  All of a sudden (on the 4 or 5 days) my battery drains very quickly.  I take my phone from the charger at 8:30 and at the point where I'm driving home from work @ 17:00 that the battery is completely dead.

  I noticed also just that there is something wrong with the backlight dimming.

  You know how if you do not touch your phone for a long period of time (mine locks automatically) then the backlight fades slowly to black.  My phone turns on again until press you a button or do something to the phone.

  Because I had the battery I noticed that, after having extended, no problems using my phone fades to black, and then immediately back light on its own. And always it all throughout the day, that's why I think it's killing my battery.

  Anyone know why this is happening?  I tried to turn the phone off for a while and then again... nothing seems to help.

  Help!

  Try to go through a clean application of BlackBerry software load. To do this see the link below:

  Hello

  How can I disable the spellchecker.

  Second, my girlfriend has a small icon at the top of his 8520 where appear the sms, BBM icon, icons Facebook all.  It is yellow gold, with very small lines in it (it looks like the icon of the browser), and it has a '1' beside him.

  Hi simon_a6,

  You can disable the spell checker by removing the checkmark in the checkbox check spelling as you type in Options > check spelling.

  If you do not want to completely disable the spell checker, you might add the word to your personal dictionary, or ignore it by following the steps described in this article. http://bbry.lv/oL2IzX

  The browser indicator gold looks like a channel browser notification.

  This article should provide more information. http://bbry.lv/pDCJiR

  If you want to remove the channel from the browser, so no other notifications are received, this article provides the steps. http://bbry.lv/vlNUEh

  I hope this helps.

• What should I do before you sell or get rid of my old computer?

  Original title: I give you my computer to my friend.  Should I reinstall the original version of the XP operating system, which has since been replaced by a newer version, before parting with this computer?

  I have a laptop Dell Smartstep 250N, bought 1n 2002, with an operating system of Windows XP Home Edition.

  I'm getting a new computer and want to give this Dell computer to a friend.

  The original version of the XP operating system has been replaced by a newer version.

  Before giving my computer away, I want to reinstall the operating system, so all files are left deleted/more difficult to find.

  Should I remove the most recent version of Windows XP and install the original version?  Or do I have to reinstall the most recent version to make the files more difficult to find and install the original version of contempt?  If so, how do I do that?

  Thank you for any assistance.

  Hello

  You can reinstall any version of the operating system that is supported by the computer, in your case, you can install Windows XP Home Edition or the latest version of the operating system that is based on your choice.

  Note:

  Perform a clean installation (the hard drive Format), while the reinstallation of the operating system.

  Backup all important data on an external hard drive as a new installation of the operating system will be washing all the data.

  For more information on reinstalling Windows, see the links below.

• BlackBerry Bold 9000 Blackberry Smartphones: What runs in the background?

  I wanted to know if anyone knew which is always running in the background on the "BOLD".  When I start my "BOLD" in the morning, I check the memory and it shows that there are 26 MB available.  Now as the day progresses, I check it and it's way down to 6 to 8 MB.  I only check my emails and Twitter several times during the day and once I finished, I make sure that Twitter is closed and only shows do not in my launch as still running.  Anyone can shed some light on this?

  Then, no matter who never installed a hybrid OS www.bbhybrids.net?  These hybrids, I understand, are expected to take less space on your memory flash (128 on the "BOLD" for OS) and run a heck everything a lot faster.  Is true and will be OK to do?  In addition, what the app "shrink a BONE" bbhybrids.net offers?  Anyone done this?  It work?

  Thank you!

  Oh, and your memory, from 26 MB to 6-8 mb during the day could be dependent on other issues, you may have other applications and UberTwitter. Even leaving it keep a little a lot of data and cache in the app that does not release before that happen a battery pull. Same thing with some other applications like Pandora and BerryWeather and many others. The BlackBerry browser too.

• BlackBerry smartphones, what are the benefits of using the spindle to spindle and BBM?

  I have not used BBM again but was compose and send messages pins (peer-to-peer). Is this the same thing as the BBM and what are the benefits of each? Are they better than just SMS?  Would like to have an explanation, because I'm confused!  Thank you!!

  BBM and PIN messages are messages sent from one BlackBerry to another.  The message is composed by the sender and goes through the secure server of the RIM before being delivered to the recipient.  They are only available for BlackBerry users.

  The thing I like about them, it is how you can see if they have been received by the recipient.  Once the message reaches the recipient's phone, you will notice a small would be "at the beginning of your message.  In other words, that it is delivered.  When the recipient opens the message, who had "will change to a 'R' for 'reading'.  So now you know that it is actually received by the recipient.

  One more great thing about these messages, it's that there is no length limit.  As you probably know, most carriers limit SMS 160 characters; not the case with these messages, they can be much longer.

  BBM and PIN messages are of the same type of message, but with PIN messages, you are limited to just contact reception.  With BBM, you can have a lot of contacts on a cat, or you can broadcast a message to multiple contacts at the same time.

  I hope this explains things for you.

• BlackBerry smartphones what icon THAT say?

  Hello

  I own a Blackberry 8330. I sent a text message today and icon next to him was the box, but had a black ' next to it. I have never seen it before. What does that mean? The text was not sent?

  Thanks for the help!

  The D means "delivered" I normally see on emails. You are the second person tonight for setting this up. Apparently he just started to occur in some people. I can't explain it. It doesn't to me. It is perhaps a kind of automatic update that came into force when you sync your BB to your PC, if it is possible.
