Composition of Smartphones blackBerry since the homescreen OS6

Good guys.  I must be missing something here.  In OS5 to the home screen, you could just start manually dial a phone number.  In order to dial manually now, I have to go to application 'phone' everything first, and then dial.  I know that most of us dial directly from the list of contacts, but there are times I want to dial manually.  I found the option 'Run by typing', but I am only able to select 'universal search' or 'shortcuts application.  Is this function of operating system or theme?  And if so, is it possible for me to put up the phone so that I can dial directly from the home screen?

Just tried it on mine with 6.0 normal just like dial and press send.  When you type 'number' the phone automatically performs a search, but the numbers are there in the title of research with the icon of the green phone next to them.  Give it a try.

  • BlackBerry Torch 9800 Smartphones - touchscreen since the last update problems; Yikes!

    My flashlight was usually great until I updated the software several days ago.  The problems that appeared almost immediately:

    • wallpaper has been changed (corrected)
    • ringtones has changed (corrected)
    • e-mail settings changed (corrected)
    • touch screen has become unresponsibe or requires stronger keys
    • touchscreen not responding to scrolling, or would highlight several lines/entries
    • composition of the keyboard or touch screen gives a random "second" when number one is touched/press

    I can overcome the other points of the touchscreen by popping the battery and restart.  But they eventually return.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

    Several times, something as simple as to reload the operating system (the same operating system you just load, not another) will help.  I don't know why, but it's worth a try.

    Connect your phone to your PC via USB and open BlackBerry Desktop Software.  Once your phone is connected, click device at the top of the software, and then restore the menu drop down.  Choose the most recent restore point and proceed.

  • Emails from blackBerry Smartphones endangered since the handset

    I use BIS and in the last two months emails started to disappear out of my blackberry handest. They disappear usually within 45 minutes of receipt.

    I did a hard reset and I have about 160 MB of free memory, but it still keeps happenning. I use Outlook to check my email, but this happens even if my computer is turned off while Outlook is not running.

    Thus, your Yahoo email is reconciled with its web server.

    Which means, if you download this email in Outlook, and your Outlook settings to delete email from the server, it will inturn also remove on your BlackBerry handheld.

    And, if you read or delete this e-mail in your Yahoo webmail, it will inturn also being marked read or deleted from your handheld.

    Together check where you set your email, to disable the removal of e-mail.

    And on your device, you can access your Messages > Options > Email reconciliation and extinguish the reconciliation.

  • Icon deletion of Smartphones from blackBerry on the homescreen?

    I managed to get an icon on my home screen. I'm trying to remove it. By selecting the icon, and then pushing the "Blackberry" menu button (just to the left) - does give me an option 'remove '. I also tried to go to Options/Device/Application Management... but no mention of the icon in question can't. I have managed to get is titled "Pocket Express.

    Anyone know how I could get rid of this icon? Someone else had them appear?

    That and others are icons of installation application carrier pushed... nothing more and not a big dea.

    After you click "Hide" and the icon becomes transparent, then click Menu > SHOW ALL so that ALL SHOW is not checked. The icon will be hidden.

    Really, you can't remove these shortcuts to application "pushed," not very easy installation. It is simpler:

    To do this: create a folder on your home screen and name it "Junk" (you can choose to be more creative the folder name ). Now, highlight each unwanted icon and press the Menu key > go to folder and move it to the folder "spam". That, for each, you don't want to do.

    Now, highlight this "Junk" folder, and select Menu > hide.

    Out of site, out of mind. Meanwhile, feel free to complain to your service provider or on their own user forums. It is not something that BlackBerry on your device.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones icons on the homescreen 9900 Bold

    How do I move icons on the main screen on Bold 9900 device so when I turn on the camera icons appear. Currently, I have to press the arrow in the Middle at the bottom of the screen and drag upward to get the icons appear.

    First of all, you can control how many lines appear on your home screen when you turn it on.  The number of default rows is one, but if you put your finger on the arrow and drag it to the top (like you did), however several lines that you drag to the top of will remain whenever you turn on your phone.

    If you want to lower the maximum number of lines, say maybe two only are needed, get the screen filled with the arrow at the top.  Then, highlight an icon with your cursor, press the menu key and select move then move the icon near top, even above the row.  Once you have the icons you need laid out near the top, you can drag the arrow down to hide all rows that fall below your selected icons.

    I hope that helps you.

  • Contacts of Smartphones adding BBM blackBerry since the previous backup

    Got a replacement phone and had posted my BBM pin on facebook and I had a few new people add me.

    Then I restored the new phone from a restore point I had made from the phone before my loan, I got all my old contacts but lost ones I got recently.

    Is my question there a way I can add these BBM contacts from a restore point I had just made of the loaner?

    Overwrite your existing contact with the new!

    Make a new backup before hand, just in case you want to restore. And make a backup of the BBM > Options.

  • Shortcuts of the blackBerry Smartphones customization on the homescreen on the 8230?

    I just got a new Pearl flip 8230 a few days ago. Love it, but one thing bothers me a bit. On the home/main screen, with 5 shortcuts at the bottom, I can't find a way to customize them. My old cheap gift flip previously had this ability, so you can't tell me that this phone rich in features, nicer don't. Right now the shortcuts are for messages, my two email accounts, address book and calendar. Is there a way I can change these shortcuts to my taste? I've looked throughout this manual and did a quick search online and on these forums and found nothing.

    I would greatly appreciate advice or tips.

    Yes.

    Click the menu button to go to the screen icons of complete applications. If you find that the top line there is a line on the home screen?

    Find the icon you want to move to the top, highlight it (do not click), press Menu > move and then scroll to the place on the first line where you want the icon, and then click.

    There you go... so, no, I can't tell you that this feature rich functionality is not the same as your old flip.

  • Problems of Smartphones blackBerry with the receipt of emails

    I just got this phone for Christmas and set up two accounts of e-mail on my phone.  So far, I received my emails very well on my phone and they always charge just notified me, etc.  Yesterday, I received an e-mail in two inboxes (on my phone) basically saying thank you to set up your e-mail accounts... you will begin to receive messages in 20 minutes (the same e-mail I had when I first set up the e-mail on my phone accounts).  Since then, I've not been doing e-mail on my phone even if when I check my e-mail on my computer, there are new messages.  I tried to remove the two accounts and setting them up again, but this does not solve the problem.  Any reason why it does this and I have to do?

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    I suggest the following, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2, each should result in a message to your BB to come):

    (1) registry HRT

    • Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > host Routing Table > (it matter little what line is current) > sign up now

    (2) Service reference books

    • KB02830 Send the directories for the BlackBerry Internet Service

    (3) restart to take batt

    • Each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes. See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    I hope that will move things again for you! If this isn't the case, then you should contact your carrier for the support and formal help.

    Good luck and let us know!

  • Icons of other Smartphones blackBerry on the home screen

    In order to be new to the Blackberry, I don't know whether or not I use the right terminology.  .. .but I want more than 4 institutional links (icons) on my homescreen when I flip open blackberry.

    I have the flip 8230.

    I also would like to make the "star key" change the typing method when held down, rather than lock the phone.  Being a flip, I don't have this level of protection of the "end of numbering.

    any thoughts on these 2 Articles?

    (or on the one I posted last week:http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/board/message?board.id=8200&thread.id=2465)

    Thank you!

    You can find a new "theme" for your device, on the one hand, that would include several icons in the home screen.

    Look at the Options > themes and see if you have more choices for themes, or looking to theme different developer sites one you particularly like. Many theme developers are listed here:

    In addition, you cannot reprogram the asterisk button.

  • Problem Bluetooth PRIV Smartphones blackBerry with the BMW 328 model 2013

    I tried several days get my PRIV to connect with my bluetooth and phone/book music and the only way to make it work is to disable the function of my phone. When I try to connect my BB PRIV to my car, there will be des-1001,-1002, etc., next to the bluetooth signal and after a few seconds he suddenly resets my car bluetooth system. There is no new update for my car system and I have never had a problem with other Android, BlackBerry, or even Apple devices. It's the first time that this problem occurs and it's phone contacts which are somehow overloading my car infotament system. However there is no way for me to specifically stop the phone contact because even though I do in the bluetooth on the phone settings, every time I get in my car it resets the permissions and tries to connect again AGAIN and AGAIN the cause of the problem. Please let me know if my phone is broken software wise, or if the application contact break you guys used somehow some systems of infotament of the telephone directories of car etc. Cause the phone book may never load and I tried several times to make it work.

    Hey, if I could get my phone with my car, including the audio both phone and bluetooth features. In order for me to get it to work I had to download the new firmware from

    http://www.BMW.com/com/en/owners/connected_drive_services/mobile_devices/bluetooth_software_update.h...

    I put the last seven digits of my vin number in the search and downloaded the update to a USB plugged on the center console of my car. Once it was done I tried to connect and to my surprise my contacts list appeared. I pulled the top of Spotify and it played without screaming and cutting. I tried a phone call, and it worked as well. I want to test a little on my lunch hour but well again.

    See if it works for you.

  • Problems of bluetooth of Q10 Q10 BlackBerry blackBerry since the software upgrade

    I have a BBQ10 and a Sonic Chevrolet with mylink. They have paired up to this Monday night everything has worked very well, and then I had a software upgrade on my BlackBerry. It installed just fine no problems there. Now when I try to make/receive calls while using bluetooth in the car my phone must be using speakers. Handset does not work, nor does the bluetooth. The first time I start the car upward and the pair of devices that I can get the bluetooth to ask me ' what u want to do' I can get all the way to connect the call. As soon as the call is connected it tells me that it is private mode. This is the point where only the speaker on the phone itself will work. I can't talk via bluetooth or "combined" speaker only or I can't hear people, but they hear me. I know that's not a problem with the mylink by car I've matched my MOM to "BOLD" and everything works as it should. Suggestions?

    Problem solved. Name of the phone has changed. Deleted the pairing between the phone and turned car restarted bluetooth phone car and turn it back on. Repair cameras and seems to be fine now

  • Travel to Smartphones blackBerry to the stranger-converter or adapter or both?

    I intend to travel in Ireland little time and need to know if I need a power converter to charge my "BOLD"?  It is common to 230v on there and there is absolutely no information on the web site () to tell you whether you need a converter or just an adapter to fit the plug.  The 9650 will convert the current on its own or not?

    Yes, it will be.  BlackBerry phones can be recharged by the double current then just plug in and enjoy life abroad.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BlackBerry in the Republic of Korea

    Hello!
    I intend to buy unlocked Blackberry Bold 9700.
    It will work in the Republic of Korea? Don't understand what sort of standards of communication here. I need a phone for Europe (GSM) and the Korea.

    My best regards!

    It will work for phone and sms. If your carrier/operator supports BlackBerry so it will work also for email, bbm, etc.. If they are not, then you will get phone and sms only.

  • BB user new Smartphones blackBerry; Tap the Contacts icon and device service PHOTO appears

    Hello

    Not only I am a new Blackberry user, I just use an older Motorola RAZR flip phone.  I know almost nothing about these 'new' phones!  Then... I printed the page 327 User Guide (327 pages - summers - you're KIDDING? and can't find the answer I need.)

    When I press the icon 'Contacts', the characteristics of the camera appear.  I do NOT get a list of contacts from which to choose call or text someone.  When I press the icon 'Text', I used to get a "thread" of my most recent texts with a person, not a list of contacts to choose text.

    Earlier, when I said «I used to get...» "this was the case until this morning and I pressed a selection from somewhere (Options? Settings?  do not remember) this icon not highlighted the 'Contacts' on the homepage quite... but still, when I press the icon 'Contacts' not highlighted, I have the choice of camera still come to the top.

    Sigh... could someone help me understand how to get a LIST of your contacts, so I can choose who I want to call or text and tell me how to get RID of the info from the upcoming camera whenever I press Contacts?

    Thank you very much!

    Always start with a battery pull when the strangeness slips into your phone. To make a correct battery pull, remove the battery while your phone is on, then replace a few seconds later. The phone must be powered on when you do this. Your phone will reboot and hopefully everything will be as it was.

    Try this and post back with your results.
