Modem attached to blackBerry Smartphones

I really like being able to use my 8100 as a modem, but - why is there so little reliable?

It will cut off at any time and usually takes a lot of time to get online. I wear the device by pulling on the battery to reset. I use XP SP2 and try to keep all my software up to date.

bumblepie, thank you.

"been there, done that."     Guess maybe I'll understand it later, thanks.

  • Modem internal faulty blackBerry Smartphones?

    I just bought a Curve 9300 os 5 on O2 and using BT home hub 3.

    I can't connect to wifi, dash White Watch constantly.

    I can not connect to the mobile broadband even if the signal is good.

    I can not set up an e-mail account, the device offers me only a blackberry option.

    Is my device defective? At the same time, which took about 10 minutes to put in place so I don't think I'm the problem, I bought a Galaxy tab.

    Is it just really unnecessarily difficult to use?

    No, I was just on the BT site and have discovered that I can not use an account normal broadband for the wifi connection. I need it's a RIM a/c all.

    I try to use the O2 speak my husband uses on his iphone. He has never had a problem with it.

    I don't think it need a contract for blackberry? Would appreciate your opinion because I am close to trampling on the cursed thing.

    No, in fact, means that that was what I told you. Its nothing to do with the BT - I have the same Hub.

    I gave you the reason why you need a data plan. I don't make the rules, I'm just a humble user like the rest of the guys here.

    The best course of action would be to swap it for a phone as your husband. With a data plan, emails to any number of email accounts, you are pushed automatically to the BB, no connection to check on these things and this has been the Foundation and basis of RIM technology. If you do not use the main feature of the BB, nobody's forcing you.

    No doubt O2 will have a plan; I checked on Orange a few weeks there are a lot of minutes, texts and data usage of 500 MB £9.85 per month including a free 8520.

    I use my Wi - Fi all the time, so my data usage is negligible - 2.6 MB in March. It will probably cost you less to have all the features on the BB, but to stay with your current plan on a different device. Before you throw away, have a Word with O2, you might be surprised.

  • Screen problem touchscreen blackBerry Smartphones BlackBerry Storm2 9550

    Hello!

    I am a Sri Lanakan. Last week, I bought a Blackberry Storm2 9550 used, eBay (from a seller of e. u.). All the functions work fine except the touch screen. Can press on the touchscreen. (edges and around the screen) But he get caught suddenly, and also when am pressing an icon, phone highlights another icon. (as axample, when am pressing contacts in the home screen, phone highlights two contacts and sms). As I suppose, at this time there the phone detects it as multi touch and so I can't support what either. When am reset (battery pull) the phone, it solves the issue for a few minutes or hours, subsequently faced the same question.

    I tried to fix it by putting a piece of paper to the battery cavity, but nothing has changed.

    My storm is an unlocked phone (Comes to Verizon, but later unblocked), which is running version 5 software. ...... . 713 fact in Mexico 5.

    I want also to the last update available for my phone and how to update.

    You have other ideas on my problem touch screen? This is the main question, I want to solve as soon as possible. Do I need to fix it with a spacialist? Is it a hardware failure or a software? He solved by upgrading my version of software or restore to the factory settings.

    None of these remedies could work. Without practice, it is impossible for me to know anything 100%. The best advice I can give you is to upgrade your operating system to the latest version (. 1015). It could very well be that, as a device, it was damaged by the previous owner and it will never work for you. As I say, it is impossible to tell at this distance-internet.

    What is the meaning of the hard reset? It is equal to pull the battery?

    In my opinion, Yes, but there are others in the world who think differently. The best reference is the official:

    Most of us who have dealt with this for awhile understand that power should be turned on when you pull the battery.

    Once again, it's impossible to say at this internet distance.

    The first (top right) is the GPS indicator... I do not exactly remember what icon the way that... I suggest that get you the the user guide for your BB from here:

    The other appears only if your carrier has eliminated an update wireless for you. You say that it is the "best way" for you... I would add that this is the MOST DANGEROUS way. You see, via this method update, on the device of data backup is taken, that is rendered after the update (the update effectively wipe everything). This backup is a file use 1... If something is wrong in the upgrade process, all your data is lost forever. The update method that I gave you is the best method that 1) it tells you first take a manual backup and 2) the process itself will also take another backup... and both of these backup files are stored on your PC and can later serve as a source of food since they are not 1-use files.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Media Sync continues to display 'Please connect a Blackberry smart phone' when the Blackberry Storm is connected to the PC

    About a 2 months ago when I would like to connect my (the first storm) blackberry storm to my computer via the USB cable supplied with the phone, I was able to transfer music from my computer (itunes) to the blackberry via Blackberry Media Sync with no problems (open Blackberry Media Sync, connect blackberry to the computer via the USB port and screen Media Sync would change so that I could sync to the blackberry storm music). I didn't even have to install Blackberry Media Sync in December 2009

    But now after I connect my Blackberry Storm to my computer, the screen of Blackberry Media Sync does not change and continues to display "please connect a Blackberry smartphone. I tried these tips I found online:

    1.) several reboots my computer (windows vista)

    2.) update/reinstall Blackberry Media Sync, then by restarting my computer

    3.) reconnection from blackberry to the computer, then open Media Sync

    4.) Open Media Sync first and then connect the blackberry to the computer.

    5.) installation BlackBerry USB and Modem drivers (even if I can't find the USB driver for it under the Universal Serial Bus Controller when I check in the Device Manager when you go to control panel – system and Maintenance – Manager of devices, but I found a v2 COM4 and COM5 RIM virtual serial Port when you select "devices by connection" under display in Device Manager) or are RIM Serial Port virtual v2 COM4 and COM5 drivers I'm looking for?

    6.) go to Options (on blackberry) - memory and make sure Media Card Support, Media Transfer Protocol (MTO) and Mass Storage Mode Support are resolved on 'On', the encryption Mode is set to 'None' and mass storage Mode Auto activate when connected, it the value "Prompt" although I tried to 'Yes' as well. It says I have 785 MB of memory space of the unit out of 879 MB total memory of the device and 7.1 GB of free space on a total of 7.3 GB of Media Card Media Card.

    None of the above tips and troubleshooting tips worked. I also checked the Blackberry technical solution center but I've not found anything there that has contributed to the other. I found discussions forums online, including issues of people with 'blackberry media sync cannot connect to the device' pop up, but I have not had this pop-up. The Media Sync screen remains just the same as if I never connected the blackberry storm to my computer in the first place even if my blackberry storm recharges via the computer.

    Is there something that I miss or have not yet done? What should I do?

    Too bad. I went to a Verizon store and they me remove the battery and turn the blackberry. Worked like a charm and I can now use Media Sync.

    Also told me that I need to update the software of the phone blackberry using Blackberry Desktop software (I have version 4 and need to update to 5) and make sure to choose to back up files when you are prompted during the update or you will lose all files, the media and info saved on blackberry.

    Hello

    FYI - Your indignation is misplaced. This site has nothing to do with any formal support. On the contrary, this site is a community of users to volunteers who do their best, while also living their own lives occupied, to troubleshoot other kind souls to the best of their ability. There is no requirement for all voluntary meet any position whether... everything is voluntary, which is given to you by the goodness of their hearts. All they ever receive in return is gratitude... so unworthy of these volunteers can be a bit off-putting, I think.

    In any case you say you reboot and for a while, things are OK, but then the problem shows once again. Which could be a few different things... a bad OS... a bad app behave... maybe same material (although I doubt that your description so far).

    Have you checked for an OS updated for your BB? Since you said only 7.1 (OS levels have 4 bytes, not 2) and later does not reveal your carrier, there is no way to help you... but you can help you in this regard:

    Good luck!
