• BlackBerry Blackberry Storm Smartphones - does not light (red light)

  Hi all

  Recently, I dug my Blackberry Storm out of his box and tried to use it again. Unfortunately, it not light.

  I can plug it into my computer (Mac) and the red light comes on. He will stay on until I open the Blackberry Desktop Manager how the phone starts a cycle of rebooting. Every now and then it stops on a symbol of the battery with a slash through it (are there no battery in the phone), but the second, I try to connect to it via the Blackberry software it restarts again.

  I tried the JML encoder or whatever his program called and every time it tries to connect to the phone, the phone restarts.

  This is as far as I know:

  Carrier: Verizon

  Phone: Blackberry Storm (to 2008)

  Computer: Mac

  Program: Blackberry Desktop Software 2.4.0 (Build 17)

  My phone is out of warranty and since he began to send me in trouble in 2009 I switched to Android. I've never had a problem with Android, so I forgot to go back and see what was wrong with my Blackberry. I hope someone can help out me. I can't really 'take to verizon' because their solution is swap out today just for a working one, but since it's out of contract. / warranty, they will tell you simply throw me. I live in Los Angeles, perhaps someone someone actually knows phones Blackberry of PATCHES. I know it's a new idea.

  Thanks, I hope someone can help!

  In your situation, a 507 is actually a good thing... 507 means that the BB has no OS installed in it, but at least it turn on now.

  I don't know how do to recover it through MAC... all of the stuff I know applies to the PC. You might find some MAC-specific help in our MAC-specific forum:

  • supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/Desktop-Software-for-Mac/BD-p/blackberryformac

  Everything what I've heard, none of the stuff to get over this is for MAC, so if you have access to a Windows PC, you can perform the following procedure, which removes as "automatic" search/download OS that fails on your MAC and replace it with what you control:

  1) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,

  (2) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

  • http://us.BlackBerry.com/apps-software/desktop/?lid=us:BBsoftwareesktopSoftware & Cal = us: bbsoftware

  (3) download and install to your PC, the BB OS package you want:

  • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

  4) remove, on your PC, all copies of the SELLER. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

  • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
  • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

  (5) run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC. If, during the process, your BB votre BB a '507' error, simply unplug the power cord of the BB USB and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue.

• BlackBerry Storm Smartphone Internet browser issues

  I use a Blackberry Storm with a Verizon data plan.

  My phone is able to connect to my email server and works very well in this regard.  I can also use the Opera browser to browse the internet without fail.

  Problems arise whenever I try to navigate with the default browser.  If I click on a bookmark saved on my home page, and then I am able to navigate successfully to the bookmark url.  However, I can never establish a connection every time I enter a url on my own, or do a google/wikipedia search, etc...

  So, basically, I can't navigate with my default blackberry internet browser.

  I already tried this troubleshooting:

  historic compensation and cache, doing resets from phone, deactivation and reactivation of the RF connection... still nothing is helping.

  Without leaving the browser, I can still click on a bookmark and the internet works, however, whenever I enter a url or a search on the home page item, the browser fails and gives me the following message is displayed:

  "A communication failure has occurred with the chosen Mobile Data Service.  The server may be busy, please try again later.  If the problem persists, contact your administrator.

  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

  It's easy: in the options of the browser, set the default browser as "Internet browser" instead of "Blackberry Browser".

• BlackBerry Storm Smartphone Versions and Java Support

  Hi all

  According to the information on the Web on Blackberry storm, they only have one 9530 version. Searching on the forums I could see some people talking about 9500 also, see info here. Now we only have one version now? Please correct my understanding.

  According to the information I have the Blackberry storm is released with Vodafone and Verizon. Vodafone is based GSM and Verizon CDMA based. So I guess that the storm supports both GSM and CDMA.

  It may be a silly question but still I ask. As devices based CDMA based generally Brew, I had a doubt, that where we have two versions of the storm, both supported by Java. As we develop applications using JDE4.7 will work on both versions.

  Please correct my understanding and provide information.

  Best regards

  Sandeep

  Hello

  the storm has two features: 9500 and 9530.
  9530 = 9500 + CDMA

  I use now a 9530 in France, where there is no CDMA. It is then exactly as if I had a 9500.

  Modern BlackBerry devices (with trackball or a touch screen) have an operating system that is made up of Java (and), as well as applications can be developed in Java for BlackBerry. You can find valuable information by clicking on the "DEVELOPERS" link at the top of this page.

  Java applets are not supported by the browser.

  Be careful which JDK you are using for your development.

• Application of quick launch of blackBerry storm Smartphones

  I love QuickLaunch for this purpose, instant on instant access to your selected speed dials, SMS and e-mail more quickly so the apps and features.

  http://www.blackberrynews.com/2009/01/28/QuickLaunch-is-a-must-have-app-for-BlackBerry-storm/

  Reviewing Xandrex...

  I just installed it on my device.

  Here is the list of what I can add to the quick launch menu:

  Standard applications :

  • Add Camera
  • Add video camera
  • Add Call Log Erase
  • Add the calculator
  • Add info on the device
  • Add Bluetooth Config
  • Add some Options of BB
  • Add the calendar
  • Add BB Maps
  • Add Contacts
  • Add to the event log

  Hyperlinks :

  • Add Url (no matter what URl, but cannot choose the options like a bookmark)
  • Add phone call (can type a phone number or choose from the list of Contacts)
  • Add Email (can type an e-mail address or choose from the list of Contacts)
  • Add SMS (can type a number of mobile, to choose amongst the list of contacts)
  • Add file (Image, Audio, Video, etc.)

  Applications that can be selected :

  • net_rim_bb_qm_google---> (perhaps GoogleTalk) causes "Eception Exception: DSC: duplicate Sync Collection.
  • net_rim_bb_messagin_app (app Messages)
  • net_rim_phone_app (phone application)
  • TalkLock (should not appear since it is a demon and not a real application, I have not tried adding and clicking on it if)
  • net_rim_qm_peer (Blackberry Messenger)

  Other applications I have installed and which can not be selected :

  • Open the keyboard (standard)
  • VLingo
  • Opera Mini (4.2 for J2ME devices)
  • TyperSpeed
  • BerryStore (beta)
  • YouTube
  • Google Maps
  • Google Mail
  • BOLT (beta)
  • Memory cleaner
  • BrickBreaker
  • Word Mole
  • Tiltris

  Pros :

  • It is an application very well for common applications & access
  • You can assign it to a side convenience key
  • You can change the order of items in the list
  • cheap

  Disadvantages : all applications installed on the device can not be selected.

  Final thoughts :

  • I would have preferred to be able to open the keyboard and VLingo. Because of two, I can't use the application until I used to manipulate the storm differently.
  • I hope that there will be updates that I'll be able to download without paying a second time.

• BlackBerry storm Smartphones BB with last sofware

  Hi everyone, when I upgrageded software in my storm, I can't lock my phone with locking button. It is automatic unlocking after pressing the buttons or the screen. Could you help me please?

  I already tried to put software plus former return, and it is workin. But when I downloaded the new software, it does not work...

  I have therefore now where is problem.

  I think that the new software is with a few mistakes.

  Thanks again for your help...

  Another way around this bug (which GMAN correctly diagnosed) is to set a password on your phone.  By setting a password on your phone, the phone only will unlock only after entering the password.  This is a temporary solution until your carrier again for another OS updates.

  Note that this is an issue very well documented with 4.7.0.141, so you're not the only one to experience this.  I hope that the use of a password will solve this problem.

  To set up a password, go to Options > password.

• BlackBerry BlackBerry Storm Smartphones - 4G in the future?

  Hi all

  I've been a BlackBerry user for over 2 years now.

  I upgraded my Storm for the Storm2 for WiFi and the command buttons tight.

  I'm ready for an exchange of phone/upgrade with Verizon Wireless and I would like to know if Research in Motion/BlackBerry will present a storm (3) like a Smartphone 4gG?

  Anyone know?

  Thank you!

  Clarke

  Hello

  At this point, we don't know anything for some, but if I had to guess based on the recent announcement of Bold 9900/9930, I would expect that any new any touchscreen BlackBerry would probably offer HSPA + compatibility and/or 1XEV compatibility. But I don't think even as a LTE compatible phone (which will probably come in another year, once some of the kinks were developed and once the life of the battery on the LTE network has been improved).

  As an another heads-up, do not expect to see it called a Storm3. Based on my experience in the BlackBerry World, it seems that the name storm may now do.

• Curve blackBerry Storm Smartphones vs

  Any thoughts on the storm? I'm new to bb and prob could not even afford to move as I am not anywhere near an all new the 2 face - but I was wondering what were the benefits to the storm, features, etc compared to the curve...

  have a blessed day and I'll sit back and read the answers.

  I waited for the "BOLD" or the storm that will be released in the United States for months ("BOLD" came out everywhere else)!  My curve was a year old and starting to fall out of use, so I had to get a new one last week.  I finally upgrade the OS 4.5.0.81 (on T-Mobile), and I'm very happy with the improvements!  Some of the things I like about the storm & "BOLD" are now available for the curve users upgraded, such as:

  -Functions of video broadcast

  -VCR

  -improved browser

  -HTML email for accounts not BES (I already paid for a HTML Viewer!)

  -.doc and .xls editing capabilities via the Documents To Go

  -Improvement of the BB Media Player (Playlists can now be created on the device, which is HUGE!)

  To specifically answer your question, here are some of the benefits of the storm, in my humble opinion:

  -Best camera - 3,2 Mpx vs 2.0MP

  -Touch screen which is the best on real market w/BB click technology (many users hate the iPhone touch)

  -More rapid processer

  -Storage capacity most out of the box (Althouogh I can now buy a microSD 16 GM for my curve as it is on OS4.5)

  -Orientations of w/portrain & landscape widescreen high resolution.  As good or better than the iPhone!

  -Network 3G super fast support!

  -Data AND voice functions!  Talk on the phone while sending/receiving e-mail.  It is only available for curve users who are on a WiFi network today.

  Now that I look at the list of improvements, the storm beat the pants off the curve, but I am happy that the new BlackBerry OS fills the void a bit.  It is not quite as urgent for me to rush out and buy the storm on the first day it came out.  I think I'll wait a week now...

• BlackBerry storm smartphone synchronization problems

  Hello. I'm new to this forum. I just got the storm. I used to have the palm tx. When I open the bberry Desktop Manager and click on the device switch Wizard to synchronize my info from the Palm to the storm Office Manager, opens the window of the migration wizard. When I click Next, the window becomes "select desktop organizer", where I can choose the software to import from. But the options are not underlined, so I can't select the option of palm treo/Organizer. What's wrong?

  I know I have the Palm TX not the Treo, but I just want to download it from the desktop organizer that is the same for both. Both my Palm and the storm are connected to the computer and I have Windows XP Home Edition. My Palm Desktop Organizer is version 4.2, which is not on the list of the bberry Manager compatibility, but it is a later version, that shouldn't be a problem. Should I get a Treo (temporarily), synchronize it with my computer and then try to transfer the files to the storm? Or is the problem something else? Thank you.

  Hi and welcome to the forums!

  I think that your Palm 4.2 is not compatible. The last article is 12/8 and ignores the right 4.2

  Thank you

• Browser blackBerry storm Smartphones will not change views?

  Hey,.

  I had my storm for a few weeks.  Out of nowhere, just today, the browser is locked in landscape mode.  Whenever I turn it on it remains in the same position, even if I flip to landscape the opposite effect.  He is stuck in the same position.  My accelerometer works well because the menu, messages, e-mails, etc. all change view very well.  Someone knows how to fix this? It's really annoying.  I usually use the portrait for web browsing, anyway.

  Hello

  I think you can try two things: the soft reboot, and if it does not, the hard reboot. Don't worry, you can not lose data with these two reboots.

  Soft reboot:
  1) struck the following three keys at the same time:
  -Alt
  -Left shift
  -Remove
  (2) wait 2 minutes for the Blackberry to wake up.

  Hard reboot:
  (1) your BlackBerry smart phone is on
  (2) remove the battery and wait a minute
  (3) replace the battery
  (4) wait 5 minutes for the device to wake up.

  Please tell us if it works for you.

• BlackBerry Storm Smartphone e-mail setting question

  When I use my regular account (gmail, hotmail, etc.) and send a message from my computer, I get that sent mail to my storm as well!

  Is there a way to prevent this?  Thanks in advance...

  Hello!

  All accounts? This is a known issue with the method POP to access GMail, for whom this KB deals with the repair:

  http://www.BlackBerry.com/BTSC/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB10332&sliceId=SAL_Pub...

  It can also be remedied by connecting to your POP account BIS, removing the conduct of GMail, by logging into your Gmail (for a PC), removing, adding IMAP and then re-create the BIS conduit.

  I did not talk about that, however, with other GMail... unless you do an auto-bcc on your client computer.
