Hello from blackBerry Smartphones I ask a new Blackberry

You can't imagine how much trash this phone is. In fact, I have no idea why I still have another request. Obviously, the phone itself is not the worst in the world, but combined with Verizon and their stupid rule 'no message picture', it makes life very frusterating for me. I hated this phone since the day wherever I got it, and today I got a new reason to become an enemy to blackberry 8830. WARNING: I like the type of blackberry phone. I think he has some good ideas. But there are still a few features that are missing in the 8830 which makes it unusable for my lifestyle. That's why I'm asking a Blackberry Pearl since this blackberry broke up after that I did absolutely NOTHING for her.

Here is what happened:

My friend and I were at the library. He tried to unlock my phone. My phone is only 5 tries, then supposedly, according to the settings that I have for it, is supposed to "lock" for 5 minutes.

"Hey Kevin," my friend said to me ' what happens when I go wrong 5 times?

"Don't know that I've never tried. Lemée see here»

I took the phone from her and something like "laetitia", random letters that clearly weren't my password entered. Suddenly, my phone says «wiping...» 0%... 17%... 25% "I laughed and said" Oh no! " It's wipe my memory"in a way pleasant, and my friend is interested even more. I thought it was a complex system of lock-up, only to find out...

35%... 57%... 83%... 92%... 100%

My phone turns off. When I turned it back on, my phone has a new image of the hourglass. She was different from the other hourglass that I had used previously. I got a little worried. "What the * beep *" I said quietly.

It turns out that my phone was erased

all my contacts

all my settings

My theme (which explains why the hourglass was different)

all my music

all my ringtones (except for the blackberry default ones)

all my old text messages (my memories)

I am unable to change my theme, although I'm trying to figure that out as we speak, but due to the nature of this topic I also

No access to Blackberry Internet browser

No access to Brickbreaker

No access to one of my old Blackberry applications (which none had been installed recently)

No access to the media player.

So please, someone give me a reasonable explanation before I have to actually call RIM and request a new phone; If this isn't a Pearl at least one similar to this one, so I can be sure such thing never happen again.

I don't know what I'll do without these contacts, it is my biggest concern. Some of these people were friends over long distances that I do not have access to get the number of.

I made the assumption that there is no way to solve this problem. But maybe someone could be an Angel and explain a solution.

Thank you

Kevin.

Your settings does not have BlackBerry lock after 5 attempts, your settings make it DRY after 5 attempts. If you didn't know that a BlackBerry wipes after putting in an incorrect amount password attempts, so you don't have the search feature. It's a BlackBerry feature that was on all the phones that I never treated.

'I wonder what happens when I press that button that says do not touch' just do not touch the button, or if you're curious, google it.

Sorry, I guess the only advice that can be given here is, be more careful with that let you play with your machine. But the unit seems to work fine.

    Did you try do this of in App World, or by using the browser of your device? Take a look at this link for the other 2 ways you can try to get the application on your BlackBerry - http://na.blackberry.com/eng/devices/features/im/wlm.jsp


    (2) in my world, I have both installed applications, 1.3 MB and 775 KB, bar displays memory 128 MB but only 26 MB of free space, how?

    You can check the free space on your device by going to Options | Memory. You'll want to take note of the free space of the memory of the Application. All blackberries have a limited amount of memory to install apps. You can try to see how you have new by removing the battery and put it back in. Free space is used to hold the apps as well as the BONES of BlackBerry, so you will never have access to the whole 128 MB

    (3) also in my list of world app shows uninstalled and I can't remove it, I did not need it.

  • Hello from blackBerry Smartphones. I wonder why I can't download Blackberry...

    Hello. I wonder why I can't download Blackberry AppWorld? !!! I tried several times, nothing helps. On the web page, you say there are not available from all the networks, but I think it should be available in the countries where the RIM products are sold. This is outrageous. I need some apps for my Blackberry, and I want to be able to buy them. Thanks for your help. Viktor Seres

    Hello!

    Sorry to say, but if you meet all the conditions of the requirements page you looked at it, then it won't work for you. You did not say, but if you are not in one of the countries listed, it is not yet available for you. I'm sorry that you feel this is outrageous, but that is how it is currently implemented... we all hope that RIM strives to go beyond these constraints, but are the current constraints.

    If you want to discuss this further with other users, please come to the forums (http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/) and create an account... then you will be able to chat with other users concerns.

    Hello - I have downloaded Blackberry Apps World and every time I open it it loads then the screen freezes at the homepage and I have to do a soft reset. I downloaded a few times and it happens every time. Also, I got the new 8900 curve and meets all requirements. Your help be appreciated you. Kind regards

    Hello!

    Generally, the first time you launch AppWorld as the first time you go to a category, there is a large amount of data to download. Patience is the key. I found that wait at least 5 minutes for each category of charge completely has helped make his later use more fluid and faster... but the first time was very very slow. It's just the way it works now.

    If this does not help, then please come back on these forums (http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/) and create an account so that we can provide direct assistance.

    Hello. I recently (last two months or more), had ATT replace my BB many times, so have had several new PIN numbers. Now the App World is telling me I have "used all your available device pin changes for your my world account.» This is understandable since I've changed devices so many times. I get more than a few changes if I can't get this work. Nevertheless, I would like that reset you my account app world so I can get my purchases and downloads. (Remove personal information)

    Very well. This problem has been fixed. Magic?

  • Hello from blackBerry Smartphones and SOS: address book cannot be restored via BB Desktop Manager

    I am an absolute techtard who was simply trying to free up memory card space so I can transfer songs on my BB to my iTunes on my Mac and of course fixing a problem leads to another and it really starts to avalanche.

    Would be very grateful if anyone can help, here goes:

    Technical specification:

    Unlocked Pearl 8120, v4.5.0.55 (Platform 2.7.0.68) software, I don't know if this is relevant, but I'm using this in Hong Kong.

    How I messed up:

    1 tried to format media card, but he refuses to let me do if BB is hooked to the Mac or offshore. Also only went the battery.

    2. media checked card: total space is 970 MB and I only left 144KO. Weird because I have a few pictures and notes other than the email service and I just cleaned my cache of box and the browser of sms.

    3. delete unnecessary files: a few photos and memos remain, but they cannot take that much space I think

    4. search through forum discussions: decided to try cleaning the memory.

    5 save address book and address book - all (no idea what the difference is, but all the two doing anyway) on the BB Desktop Manager, saved memos upward as well.

    6. permit the garbage collection. Map of recorded media. Status quo.

    7 checked another forum thread that says I can, and that you should remove "Address book" of garbage collection service.

    8. panic and I tried to remove the 'address book' but it wasn't an option. Decided to clean all other components one by one in the hope to make more room, chose 'Search certificate' and he cleaned my complete address book.

    9 returned to BB Desktop Manager, Contact selected and clicked "restore." At both options i.e. full and partial restoration for the address book and address book - all.

    My directory is always empty.

    Tried to restore my memos too but BB Desktop Manager doesn't show me how do or no results under the help section of return. Mode techtard true, then check my memos - always there. Phew. These are emails and sms - are.

    Since I am a techtard, I didn't save my address book on my Mac (which would be the next big leap after I synced my BB with my Mac tonight).

    So it was back to discussions of the forum again and I saw one that said "uninstall the RIM DTM software, then reinstall it" of sdgardne. I do not have this stuck under his wire because I'm dead desperate for some attention, so I thought I would start a fresh appeal for help instead.

    My fear is that if I uninstall the software RIM DTM, then I'll lose all my addresses and memos. Isn't it based? Are there other solutions at all?

    I apologize for this long a spiel but I hope that the information could be useful to anyone who is kind enough to accumulate his brain to help out me here.

    Thanks heaps!

    Hi JSanders,

    Obstacles such as a switch office of personnel IT delayed my thanks for your advice... I didn't have any backup and has been quietly sad / happy for a few days for the sudden wipeout so miraculously reappeared all addresses.

    My outgoing HE said guy thanks to my Mac office and Outlook software - it was not very useful and does not specify because it was really flooded in his last days at work. New this GUY was looking to highlight a little so it took me a while to understand how save my address book (BB Gmail and Apple address book) and empty the memory card (multimedia card somehow reformatting tried-tested-guaranteed solution) escaped me.

    So everything is in working order, very much appreciate your advice and IrwinII too! Keep well!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones (App) not available for download from Blackberry App World

    I use a Blackberry Bold 9000 (personal use) on Bell Mobility.  The operating system is v5.0.0.681 (1137 Bundle, platform 5.2.0.64) and I'm in v2.0.1.12 App World.

    My App World worked well until I have asked me to set up my Blackberry ID.  Since then, App World is basically useless.  My main questions are:

    1. Whenever I try to connect on App World, I am taken to the additive screen of Blackberry App World membership.  I accept the conditions each time, but nothing is recorded, and I have to go through the same process the next time I log on.
    2. When I try to download updates to existing applications, I get the dreaded "...". not available for download on Blackberry App World. »
    3. When I try to download new applications (IE TSN Mobile), I get the same "... not available for download from Blackberry App World."

    After a very long session with Bell Mobility and RIM Technical Support staff, I was able to solve the problem I was experiencing.

    I initially created my Blackberry ID using my mobile device (9000 "BOLD").  Apparently, the program installation but unfinished and recorded properly and that was the root cause of all problems.  When I logged in Blackberry ID of my laptop, I was able to complete the installation in three steps process.  It was to download a plug-in on the Blackberry site, connect the phone to the laptop and then completing the installation program (including seizure of Paypal information, if you wish) on the laptop.

    After completing this process, I could connect the Blackberry ID on my mobile without having to go through the Blackberry App World membership additive and all my downloads have worked without error.

    IMPORTANT: the completion of recording Blackberry ID process must be carried out using Internet Explorer.  I had actually tried to do this a few days ago, but I've been using Google Chrome.  As a result, the global need App Plug In did not download properly on my laptop and I couldn't finish the rest of the installation procedure.

    I hope this helps other people who have faced this problem.

  • Info transfer of Smartphones from blackBerry curve a Bold 9700

    I'm trying to transfer my contacts from my old curve to my new Bold 9700 using the Blackberry Desktop Software (v. 6.0.0.40).  I have two questions: (1) I keep prompted for a password for each of the devices, but it does not recognize my device passwords and keep asking myself the passwords - what am I doing wrong? and (2) it is possible to transfer only the contacts and nothing else? (My boyfriend of systems already transferred my emails).

    Thank you

    Bob

    Sorry, everybody.

    I feel like a * beep *-the problem I have had with my device passwords was my fault.  The character that I kept thinking has a number (number on my Blackberry) was in fact a letter, and I needed to enter it as a letter on the keyboard of my computer.  For example, I thought, it was "5555" was actually "dddd".

  • Smartphones from blackBerry App World

    I have a TORCH (software 6.0 Bundle 3049) with App World installed 3.0.0.73 from Blackberry Desktop Software.  I have download the updates and App World indicates that a new version is available 3.1.2.32, I download the new version and App World Spear is no longer.  In other words, I click on the world icon, and nothing happens.  I'm going to BB Desktop Software, delete App World, re - start the phone and re - install the 3.0.0.73 and functions of the App World.  In other words, until the App World informs me that a new version is available for the update and I can choose 'Update' or 'Close' and the cycle repeats.  I have 18 months left on my contract with Bell Mobility and I was kind of hoping that BB would fix it so I won't be too miserable until I can update an iPhone.

    I talked to Bell Mobility and that they me related to BlackBerry (RIM). The technical expert has helped me greatly.  I downloaded the software, saved my camera and reloaded the software bundle.  I won't go into details, it is best done with the advice of an expert.  Then, call your provider.

    But App World works perfectly now. So, all well that ends well.  I don't know if I will "jump" to an another unti now that my BB Torch works well again.

    FYI, the assistance was FREE!

  • LANGUAGE of ENTRY of Smartphones from blackBerry to CHANGE

    Hi all

    I need to change the input from my bb to English language to French.

    I found where the do in the options...

    The problem is that when I get on the default English language entry screen / GB), when I click it, there is only English (United States). No other proposed.

    This bb has been offered to me by my former employer, maybe this can help you understand the origin of the problem.

    I have lloked on the site of bb to find answers, but without success sofar.

    Could you please help me find how to add a French in the other available Mo?

    Thanks in advance! :-)

    You would need to install an OS of a carrier that would include normally languages French or European.  Here are some instructions:

    1. start by searching for your operator and the system operating file that you want to use. I would like to use check European carriers (any carrier will work as long as the OS is for your type of device).  It is easier if you install the same version number you already have, you will be able to just install that language and not the rest of the operating system, but if you're updating to a newer version which is OK for... just takes a few extra minutes.  Make sure that the operating system download you shows as "multilingual".

    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

    2. it's not bad to do a manual of your device first, backup using the Desktop Manager > backup. Close at the end Office Manager and disconnect it from BlackBerry. You can get the BlackBerry Desktop Software here http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/

    3. download the OS from step 1 of the file on the PC then install on the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.

    4. go into c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml." Also, check the following locations for the vendor.xml file and delete all instances of the file:

    On Windows Vista/7, go to C:\Users\YOUR_USER\AppData\Roaming\Research in XML Motion\BlackBerry\Loader (where 'YOUR_USER' is your user name)

    On Windows XP, go to C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR_USER\Application is In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML (where 'YOUR_USER' is your user name)

    5. connect the BlackBerry and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in c:\program files\common research in motion\apploader

    Pay attention to languages that are being installed and make sure you inlcude what you want.

  • Messages from blackBerry Smartphones not always display in the Inbox on the Torch 9800

    Hey there. I apologize if this has already been answered, but I search through the forums and have not yet found an answer.

    I have a Torch 9800. Since I got it, I noticed that, sometimes, the messages will appear in my Inbox. My phone will ring when I received it, and I'll have the 'new messages' icon on the home screen, but clicking on the messages icon that leads me to an empty Inbox.

    I noticed this behavior affecting the e-mail (my gmail account is the only one that I have will the blackberry), messages text and two customers different third-party chat.

    I have no message filtered to different folders, or something like that.

    By clicking on "View file" check my Inbox is selected.

    But that's where it gets weird: if I compose a new message and send it, when I go back to the Inbox, all messages are displayed.

    It's almost as if the Inbox is having a problem displaying the list of messages, but as soon as I push a new element to display (message sent recently), shocked it back to life.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!
