GPS on Curve 8320 T-Mobile capabilities

Hello

I am using a T-Mobile 8320 and trying to find the location of a user via the API LocationProvider.  However, it doesn't seem to work properly. When I deploy my application on the bberry, an exception is thrown indicating that I was overwhelmed.  I have 2 questions:

1. read these message boards, I have one on an article that indicates which models of black berries have the ability to identify the location of a user.  I interpret this as meaning that the locationprovider api will not work on the 8320, although I use cell towers to determine the location of the device.  Here is the link I'm referring to http://www.blackberry.com/knowledgecenterpublic/livelink.exe/fetch/2000/348583/800332/800703/What_Is...

2. If I'm missinterpreting article, I refer above, I have included my code base (which is a slight modification of the whereami.java class, which is located here: http://na.blackberry.com/developers/resources/LBS_LAB.zip).  Could someone please point out, where I made a mistake.

Thanks in advance!

  • BlackBerry Curve 8320 - Network Mobile Smartphones (kept losing)

    Heya there!

    I'm here to represent my girlfriend who kept having problem with his BB 8320 Curve.

    Its network of Mobile signal not now change the colors of green (tick)-> yellow (in strips).

    No idea why and how this happened? This has happened since she came to Live Messenger 5.0, and I came back to his system using Desktop Manager 5.0 to original (v4.5 update of its carrier provider). But still, its mobile network status light to go green - yellow all the time, this event it to freely use his BB Messenger. Kept by disconnecting

    Help, please?

    Thank you.

    Welcome to the forums

    Try a battery pull first:
    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.

    You can also save the device by going to Options > Advanced Options > host Routing Table, click on the button menu/blackberry and 'sign up now '.

    Also try to send service directories to the phone by:
    1 connection to the site of the BIS of your operator (where you installed your email)
    2. go in directories of Service, then click on "send Service books".

    Post back with your results.

  • Smartphones blackBerry 8320 T-Mobile using the curve with AT & T Service

    Hello

    I have a Curve 8320 which was initially branded as a T-Mobile phone.  It is unlocked, and I use it with AT & T service.

    Phone works fine, just like internet and Messaging.  However, I can't set up email and cannot set up on the Blackberry Internet Service web page as he says he is not registered with my provider of wireless.  I followed the steps on the phone to save, no luck.

    Support technical at & T said that they cannot set up a profile on the Blackberry page for me, as long as T-Mobile removes the old profile for this phone.  T-Mobile tech service dept basically said that they have no idea what talking about AT & T & suggested that contact Blackberry directly to get the deleted profile.  Tech AT & T once said that it's done, I can set up a new profile page www.att.blackberry.com and everything will be good.

    So, how can I get the blackberry web page deleted profile of T-Mobile, as AT & T rep service tech says needs to be done? Or is this info correct that AT & T provided?  Or is this phone locked for always in service of T-Mobile for e-mail and I have to buy an AT & T branded Blackberry?

    Yes, a BB data plan is a must.  I assumed that since you were talking about registering the device and had talked to a representative already you probably had the current plan.

    The question of the spindle is a question that often comes up when you try to set up email on the appliances.

    Glad that your question was just the data plan.  The pin version number can be much more difficult to solve.

  • Blackberry Curve 8320 unlocked blackBerry smartphones

    Hello

    I have not actually bought my Blackberry yet, but I'm looking into it right now. I want to buy a unlocked Blackberry Curve 8320 which was previously on AT & T or T-mobile (I'm a couple more different). Anyway, I wanted to buy a Blackberry and place it on a data plan with Rogers Canada. I'm doing this because I want to be able to use BBM, so I think I need a data plan.

    I buy the Blackberry separately because I want to be able to use overseas when I use another GSM SIM card for example. I know doing it on contract is cheaper, but I don't want to do that because I will be locked on a 3 year contract and I won't be at the Canada for 3 years.

    I just want to know if the Rogers data network will work with a Blackberry unlocked as I described above. I asked Rogers customer service and they said that they cannot confirm that the Rogers data network will be to 'connect' with the unlocked Blackberry because it once belonged to another provider and I should buy a Blackberry from Rogers. I don't know if they just said that if I would buy the Blackberry from Rogers rather than elsewhere. I know the unlocked Blackberry should work fine with a regular for calls and SMS GSM SIM card and all that but I want to know specifically about BBM - ing.

    Sorry, my question is so long. Thanks a lot for your help!

    While Canadian companies may be different from their American counterarts I do not that the differences are only significant to materially affect my response.

    When you buy a 'new' locked onto a support device will be offered the device at a price at a price significantly lower than the retail price recommended for her.  That's what prescribed contractual lock in as they recover for the duration of the contract, the difference between what you pay and the cost.  They're subsidizing the price in order to collect a healthy monthly fees for access.

    All U.S. carriers require a data plan for smartphones in addition to any general "plans" for just minutes and text packages etc.  I guess that Canadian businesses require the same.

    In order to use BBM you need a dataplan carriers which is what allows your device use the features of the BIS (Blackberry Internet service) requiring Blackberry data push, e-mail, all what is "data".

    This is a new in the box device purchased by your friends at Rogers.  They sold you a Blackberry and they dance as they listen to the registry will chaching.  This is music to their ears.  This is an item being sold and it is "locked" to Rogers.  Of course, for each month of your servitude under contract happen to dance again once the Registry continues to provide them with more chaching.

    You bought a camera from them, you can use it at this stage only with them.  They will be as you might or might not be aware subject to various and assorted penalties if you tire of their service or their absence and take your business elsewhere, or try.  Costs of early termination can easily exceed your initial cost plus for a premium, in a credit institution, violating laws governing wear.

    It's what keeps dissatisfied customers even with the carriers that are less satisfactory.  It is just too expensive to leave while allowing some, but not all carriers for you 'sell' the balance of your contract to another.  If Rogers of permits that are unknown to me.

    If you buy an "unlocked" device it is expected of the band is compatible with Rogers (GSM/CDMA as the case may be) perfectly capable to be activated on their network.

    Their after-sales service is to use a euphemism, blowing smoke.  They know perfectly well that a device unlocked regardless of its origin.  They won't make you a device for which they do not receive rewarding chaching first and make run on their network.  Since you did not pay a subsidized price for the device that you are not obliged to a three-year plan or some length Rogers requires for locked for new devices.

    While they play stupid indeed hoping you will buy them and locked himself in a service contract.  It's guaranteed money for thirty-six months.  It's a lot of money.

    Assuming you get to admit only a 8320 unlocked (GSM) will play well with their network that you can buy a phone, monthly data on the plan without being locked in a period of time.

    You will absolutely need the dataplan however, at least the minimum plan they offer will prevent access to the services that make it a Blackberry.

    Of major importance for you in as long as purchaser of a used instrument is the only one not is indeed "unlocked" but the PIN was released by the former owner and the access to its carrier, T-Mobile or AT & T.  Every Blackberry is assigned a unique PIN that lives with her forever.  For example, if I want to sell my unlocked Blackberry Storm I will have to make arrangements for the release of the Verizon PIN so that a subsequent purchaser can activate the storm on Verizon (my service provider) or such that it is unlocked any service provider, as it really is a universal device capable of activation on a CDMA/GSM/UMTS network or Global.

    I would like to buy a used if and only if it is verifiable that the PIN was released by the previous owner/carrier.  With the instrument in hand, it can be checked on the device or not it is unlocked.  The output of the SPINDLE must be verified by the previous carrier and I'm too cynical, but I wouldn't take the word of the seller unless it was a very trustworthy family member and even then, I would like to politely ask for verification.

    Rogers wants money on your part.  They want the money upfront to sell you a Blackberry and they want the contract guaranteed money for the long term for the months down the line.  For Rogers, it's win/win.

    You can, even if it's an expensive to buy a new device of Rogers at the MSRP and not you will not lock in a three-year contract.  The majority of carriers who does not advertise that the difference is more than lost long-term do not lock you in their.

    I hope this helps.  If I appear cynical, it's because I am.  Carriers are there to increase their profits and integrity is lost in the maze.

    So, I want to buy a pink lid for my Blackberry Curve 8320. However, when I look on eBay or Amazon, pink rugs say they are for the Blackberry Curve 8330 (I know that Verizon is out with the pink telephone). Is there a difference? Should be always on my phone?

    Yes, as long as you ALSO replace the keyboard AND the small part that is under the keyboard.

  • Smartphones blackBerry sync Blackberry Curve 8320 with Outlook 2007 problems

    Hi all. I have a problem which seems to be somewhat common. I did some don't research through the messages, but so far no luck.

    I just got my Curve 8320 and I installed Desktop Manager 4.5 that accompanies it. At work, the calendar, I want to use is in Outlook 2007. It is a work schedule, but this isn't a working phone. Anyway, it wouldn't work at all, but I changed one of the options on the phone (based on a comment here) 'Facebook' for the other option (my personal e-mail, not associated with work or Outlook 2007, but that was my only other choice).

    Then he started pulling files from Outlook to the phone, but about to halfway through it gives me this error in a window called 'Intellisync': 'operation complete unexpectedly.'

    I can't go further than that. Any ideas?

    Morning.

    We will try this.  Read this thread.  You probably have a corrupt file somewhere in your calendar.

  • BlackBerry smartphone Curve 8320 Trackball 'click '.

    Last year, I bought my curve from T-Mobile.

    According to T-Mobile, it is still under warranty.  I called them today to see if it could be corrected.  The trackball is more "clicks" when you press.

    The CSR said it was a known issue, that the spring is broken.  If it is broken, if the trackball still works, they will not repair or replace.

    I want that my 'click '.   Can it be fixed?  What should I do?

    I'd go in a store and explain the situation to them. If the CSR does not understand, ask to speak to a Manager. Do a bit of agitation without getting angry, just be closed. If the phone has a broken part of a normal use that should work, they must replace it for you. If they do not listen, ask for a phone number to escalate the situation at a higher level.

  • Button blackBerry Smartphones BB Curve 8320 unexpected behavior

    Hi community

    I now own a BB Curve 8320, which arrived March 7 th 2010 with OS v4.2.

    Having previously & successfully upgraded the OS on my BB 8310 curve which has an expensive screen problem, I downloaded OS v4.5 for BB Curve 8320.

    I used this download: 8320EastAsia_PBr4.5.0_rel108_PL2.7.0.78_A4.5.0.81_Voda_Australia

    Everthing seems to work very well; the OS upgrade completed successfully and before & after reloading the data from Outlook I could access the menu via the Menu button & do what I needed.

    However, after some time of operation (i.e. on 1 or more hours), random unit see the menu when I press the Menu key and I can't answer calls by pressing the Green Telephone button.

    Instead, this key and a few others will produce strange characters (e.g., Yi) in applications that can accept text, or does nothing.

    I tried to help me with this problem by making a following and after:

    Battery grips.
    Hold the alt key, then press and hold SHIFT to the right, then press DELETE.
    Reload the OS after the failure with JL_Cmder v1.9.1

    I have read on this forum or on crackberry that I should consider the moisture under the keyboard and then proceeds to remove the battery and SIM and SD card then proceeds to the hair dryer the unit for a short period.

    RESULT = everything works again for a short while (a few hours), then it will repeat the above behavior.

    I'm a bit there is a simple fix of BB Curve 8320 or setting changes that I'm missing.

    The 8310 has been solid on the performance... and honestly that miss me.

    Please put me out of my misery.

    Who is blessed,

    Hello community,

    After trying my own idea and add some silica GEL for the bowl to rice taking into my BB Curve 8320 & leaving for 2 days, I took out the camera fed up and had a brainwave.

    I occurred to me that since this routine 'your BB dry' had not given a complete solution, while it was time to open the unit and correct what was going on inside.

    So... on March 15, I found a local repair shop, said the problem, as well as to what this forum (thanks JSanders) suggest that he was wrong and ignored the diagnostic charge.

    Finally, there is some minor corrosion under the keyboard, which he corrected and cleaned up.
    I asked the tech if I took the phone to him at the time, and he said yes, that I didn't have to worry.

    So now, I have a BB Curve 8320 with interchangeable spare parts of my BB Curve 8310.

    CONCLUSION.

    I think that rice and the desiccant, drying methods are best used to DELAY the progression of moisture damage.

    However, if this does not solve the problem... then you must go into the unit. (i.e. you or a tech)

    Don't get too long..time is essential due to the miniaturization of circuit traces are very small and corrosion can quickly make the device unusable.
