• Smartphone Newbie question blackBerry - general question on the synchronization of e-mail

  Hello

  I have a general question about the synchronization of e-mail and BlackBerry smart phones.  Y at - it none of the devices that enable E-mail synchronization with Microsoft Exchange 2007 system not requiring BlackBerry Enterprise server?

  Thank you; Sorry if this has been asked before but I was unable to find it in the forums, documentation, etc.  Guess what I found for this kind of environment, you will use a BlackBerry Enterprise solution, but I can't assume.

  Thanks again.

  The short answer is no - BB using a different methodology than the use of WM. BB Push, WM uses (for most) sweater. As a result, the long answer...

  BB uses a server solution - it's called the BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) and it is hosted by your carrier. As an ENCORE, you create a BIS account, then create configurations for different emails, save your credentials for each e-mail account with necessary configuration items (as an ENCORE) (name of the server, the special ports, etc.). Then, BIS periodically checks your mail servers (about every 15 minutes) for any changes on the server that are required on the BB - only, so it generates traffic to your BB to expel these changes. If there is nothing that need to come to the HH, there is no traffic on the network of the carrier.

  WM, on the other hand, devices use (for the most part - there are exceptions) a technology pull... the device itself asks your e-mail servers for changes that need to come to the HH. This generates more traffic on the network of the carrier that the action of the poll itself generates traffic, even if there is nothing to come to the HH.

  Another distinction is the notion of synchronization - in the vernacular WM, it means that what makes your Inbox to the server mailbox and your lines of mailbox HH of the each other for everything (items old and new)... In the vernacular of BB, what is happening is the reconciliation of the new features and changes. But the old elements aren't coming for BB... only news of the moment of activation.

  Another distinction is just what reconcile to a BB - new, remove, read/unread, saved, etc. Which varies according to the messaging service... see this KB for more information:

  • KB05133 Features of the BlackBerry Internet Service email reconciliation

  Hope that helps!

• BlackBerry smartphones which has the best app flashlight?

  You are looking for an application of good flashlight that uses the camera light and allows me to place an icon on the screen to access or turn on the flashlight. Not interested in those who transformed one of the side buttons in a switch but prefer to have an icon on the screen to activate. Any suggestions?

  In addition to drive me crazy, of course. I know when it is red, I have a message, but it has been flashing all night and I had to cover only to find this morning, he's still alive! What to say? How do I turn it off?

  I think that he is here to tell you that you are in the coverage of the network.

  You can disable it by going to Options, screen/keyboard and the value ' coverage seeing: "to 'Off'.

  See you soon

• A LOT of Newbie Questions blackBerry smartphones. (Must be the easy answer!)

  Good, please excuse my ignorance... guys xD

  I just bought two s BlackBerry Curve 8530 from Sprint. I'm pretty tech savvy, but there are some things about this phone, I can just enter in two or three days I got em:

  Deleting photos: Well, then I'm in my media folder, in the images. I selects a photo and press the BlackBerry button and select Delete. Then he said: it is read-only, and when I remove it, the icon is still there. I tried to turn on/off the device, and it's still there. Thought this one myself. I plugged it up to the Desktop Manager and all of a sudden all the photos I had taken appeared. I was also able to delete using the "BlackBerry" button and then "delete". It doesn't give me that read this option.

  Saving images: So, for some reason I can't save more photos. I don't know even how I saved the first 12 photos I have taken... but now it won't save any more. What the hell happened? xD I have a 2GB card in my phone... surely these 12 images didn't fill in this card... Thought this one myself. I plugged it up to the Desktop Manager and all of a sudden all the photos I had taken appeared.

  Buy ringtones: On my old phone LG, I used to buy ringtones RealTone Jukebox... where they had extracted from songs that I could download for a crazyhigh. Where can I buy the real music ringtones for BlackBerry? What I do myself?

  Media moving to my PC?: I went through the music store of Sprint comes with my camera, and two purchased songs. I want to know if I can get these songs out of my BlackBerry smart phone and my PC. Also, if anyone knows what format they are in (if they bought before Sprint music store).

  To buy another memory card: Where the best place to buy one of these mini memory cards? One of my friends like, a 24 a concert... and I currently have a 2 gig (who, I should mention, is more fricken memory I have in the computer I do not write about this time xD) how can I find out if the card is compatible with my camera?

  WTF @ Redlight?: From time to time (we can always do that, I'm not sure), the little red light at the top of my unit starts to blink even if I do not have a weak battery or not new messages. It first happened lastnight when a friend sent me 3 IMs at once. I had to reboot my device and I think that he is stopped. Earlier, it happened again (I had several new messages) and this time whenever my display is on, the light was red only flashes do not. It can always be like this now, but I'm not sure. My camera is in the other room and I'm too lazy to check xD. Why would he do that? How can I get him to stop?

  Turn off the sound of the camera?: My camera makes the shutter of the camera, even when noise silence. Is there a way to stop this?

  
  

  Auto keyguard: I have EPIC hand-dial to people purse. In my view, it has a keyboard lock button in the dashboard of BlackBerry (that is the correct term for this?) But I want to get to the place where the keyboard auto-lock after a certain period of time. Is this possible? I saw somewhere about pressing the button mute will lock it... who is the top/center of the unit button?

  Key blackBerry?: Well, don't laugh, I know that I'm retarded. But, the key to the left of the beach towel... than the devil who called? He got the BlackBerry logo on it... is what he called the BlackBerry button? I know, I know, I'm retarded and could probably flip through the manual to figure it out... but still. I might as well ask now xD

  
  

  Choose the icons to display on the main screen: When I added an e-mail address, he put an icon on my main desktop, in the row of icons at the bottom of the screen. (where is my background image and all that). Can we choose the icons that we want to display on the main screen? I have really now, my calendar icon that I know that I use. I'd love to move the keyboard lock button here though... is it possible?

  Speaker?: How can I get speaker? xD

  Theme Studio (software, no associated device): Anyone used this? It is quite easy to use? I am tech savvy, but I don't want to just download a ton of programs on my PC that I won't use xD I'm working on the Desktop Manager and it takes forever. I want to make themes, but I'm curious to know how easy to use this program is... graduate to use design or if it would take a graph xD

  Well, then, I think that... Think THAT that's all. I can change this highest position (if we are allowed to edit) to delimit what questions have been answered. I hope someone sees this soon enough, that I don't know how "living" these forums are.

  Thanks for looking, and I warned you... they have been the newbie questions! xD

  There may be an icon on the home screen of your camera to buy ringtones. Or you can open the browser and go to http://mobile.blackberry.com. There is a link of ringtones that you can click

  It is recommended to buy a microSD card to store your multimedia files, if you run out of memory on your device.

  
  

  Depending on what OS is your BlackBerry tells you what size you can buy a microSD card. 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

  
  

  On the BlackBerry, go to Options | Media Media Card recommended parameters are:

  
  

  Media card support: WE

  Encryption mode: NO

  Mass storage support: WE

  Auto enable mass storage Mode when connected: YES

  
  

  Mass storage mode allows your BlackBerry to act as an extra drive when it is connected to your PC. It will appear as an extra drive letter in Windows Explorer. So you can just drag/release the multimedia files on your memory card

  If you select an icon, click the menu button and choose move. You can rearrange the icons. The icons in the top 5 on the list will be those along the boittom when not looking at the full home screen.

  No, it isn't entirely free of BlackBerry10 unit which will be launched on 30 January.

  It is purely a developer alpha hardware and software device... not at all to be confused with the final device.
