Research problem quick blackBerry Smartphones Contact phone number

Recently, my BB 8820 stopped to retrieve the contacts from the main view when I get the first letters of the name of my contact. Instead of that, he's now the call log which contains only the last names of called contacts. I did no change in system within months and everything worked fine two days ago

  • BlackBerry smartphones get phone number

  • BlackBerry smartphones updated phone number

    Hey guys, I know this problem has been published several times, but it seems to me that my problem is slightly different from other peoples.

    I have a Blackberry Curve 8520, I install on that Version 4.6.1.314. On my laptop, I have a blackberry Version 6 software. Im running windows 7 64 bit.

    I connect my blackberry to your laptop using the usb data cable I click on device and then update device (as seems to be the only way I can update my phone is this way). It comes up saying that the software that I have now is the latest version, even though I know this isn't. Ive also went to the blackberry website and tried to download the software from there to try and manually install but when I click on download it asks me to connect my phone, once I do that it checks with my phone and said once more no update available. If I do not connect my phone I can't go any further.

    I called my provider orange they me connected to the blackberry service, after talking with them they informed me that because I bought my blackberry of the carphonewearhouse and that sound is a SIM free (open to all network carriers) phone that I'm not able to upgrade my phone software.

    So, to summarize

    Update says no update is available with the V6 with desktop application

    Cannot manually download the blackberry Web site operating system because it asks me to connect my blackberry and then says no update available

    support BlackBerry at Orange seem to think it's maybe because my phone is SIM free

    Can you please help me as I would really like the features that the OS 5 Version and it seems to be a better operating system altogether, I know it may be a lot, but when it comes to this sort of thing with mobile phones not terrible im home.

    I could really do with some giving me instructions step by step on how to update the phone and where to get updates from.

    Thanks in advance if anyone can help me

    :-)

    Hey, it's been covered here many times.

    First, look for ANY release of carrier for the device, model 8520 you want to install.

    For example, the last official version for the 8520 comes from AT & T (v.5.0.0.822)

    Operating system device provided are "released" by specific carriers once that they are certified and trained to their support technicians, but still, you are able to load any carrier the same model by following the instructions below.

    Then. First, download the file of the OS:
    https://www.BlackBerry.com/downloads/entry.do?code=577BCC914F9E55D5E4E4F82F9F00E7D4

    Make a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > backup. Close the office at the end Manager.

    1. download the OS files to the PC then install on the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.
    2. go in c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
    3. plug in the BB and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

    Hello ladychelle

    I guess you have already BIS on both of your devices, so first of all restart your device by removing the battery while your device is turned on, wait a minute then reinsert back .after restarting check if it allows,

    If the problem persists then register your handheld computer on your corporate network, for the help, see this KB:

    KB00510 : How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with wireless network

     

    (receive a recording message in your message)  After receiving another battery pull reboot, then try again.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones save a number to an existing contact

    Hello

    I just got a call from a colleague on his cell phone number. She is already in my contacts list, but I don't have his cell number before.

    Is it possible to get the "BOLD" to add the call log number to existing contact information?

    I don't see how it can be done, except by writing it down... not what I want to do really!

    If you go in your call log. highlight the number and click on the menu and the number of copies.

    Then go to your contacts and paste the number where you want.

  • Contact phones number smart blackBerry when rings

    When my phone rings, it shows the phone number of the appellants, but it will not show the name if they are in my contact list. Finished the call name contacts indicated in the call log, just don't no when sounds. Any ideas? Worm 4.7.1.57

    It could be one of the three solutions... Try these:

    1. make sure that you set your own country code to the Phone Dialer screen > Options > smart dialing.
    Set your country code in this format: "+ xx" where xx = country code. Some countries have two or three-digit country Codes. Do not place not the '+' in the entrance of your contact.
    * In the United States, the value of this country as '+ 1' Code and place your local area code in the appropriate box (this normally the default setting in a new BB).

    2. in the same place, change the length of National number for the number of digits corresponding to your country (since some countries have less than 10 as that set by default in the BB). Check out the total numbers, less country code. Do not place not the '+' in the entrance of your contact.
    * For example, some countries have a total number to 8 (more than 3 for the country code). You must enter '8 '.

    3. you probably have "Content Protection" located on your address book.
    Look at the Options > Security > General settings. Scroll down to the content Protection > include addresses = no

  • BlackBerry Smartphones combine phone and gmail contacts?

    Hello, I recently downloaded my gmail contacts on my BB and now all my email contacts are mixed with my contacts from phone (most of them are also under the same name). It makes it much harder to make a simple phone call or email to someone - is it possible to combine a phone contact and e-mail into one? Thank you!

    I was wondering the same thing.  What a PITA.

    I think that initially when you configure Gmail on the BB, it prompts you to decide whether or not you want to synchronize contacts (from Gmail).  I think that if this box is left unchecked, it would not have imported all the contacts of Gmail in the list of Contacts [phone].

    If you want to delete your Gmail from your torch, then re-setup Gmail account and make sure you don't synchronize contacts, maybe he should correct the problem.

    If you delete Gmail, it cannot automatically remove all Gmail contacts in your Contacts list.  You might need to open the full menu in the contact list, select Select a list of Contacts..., choose Gmail, then delete each individual contact gmail.

  • 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:

    • KB02141 How to reset a BlackBerry smartphone

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

    Hereby, I have attached an image. Please answer those as well.

    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.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    First of all, it looks like your battery may be dead... Please try this sequence... Note that, throughout the whole 4h15m process, your BB should stay connected to a good charger (not the USB PC):

    1. With battery, connect your BB to the wall charger
    2. Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the screen not
    3. Remove the battery
    4. Wait 15 minutes
    5. Insert the battery
    6. Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the screen not

    This has been known to "revive" some BBs.

    It is also possible that your battery or BB has encountered a problem... to test, this sequence is necessary:

    1. Get a known good and already fully charged battery... use it in your BB and see what happens
    2. Get access to a BB good and the same known... use your battery in there and see what happens

    The results of this will show if your BB or your battery that has the problem.

    Once your battery is fully functional, so please visit this official download portal as you go along. If all you want are the levels of BONE, it is first sorted by carrier - the carrier supports, your search will be fast. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To really get the package up-to-date OS for your BB, you need to dig through and find all businesses that support your specific model BB and then compare the BONE levels they support.

    From a PC, you can install any compatible OS package (for example, for your BB model exact number) of a BB via this procedure:

    Note Although written to "recharge" and the storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade or recharge any BB device model - depends on the operating system package you download and install on your PC. After installing the operating system on your PC package, please remember to remove all copies of the SELLER on your PC. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

    Don't forget that you remove, since your PC, any other BB OS devices as packages with more than one installed on the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.

    You can also study the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe what he is capable.

    You can also try the "skeleton OS Reload procedure" in an attempt to circumscribe the precise causal element:

    1. Load your OS "bare bones"... If everything is optional, do not install it.
    2. If the behavior is immediately, then try another OS with step 1
    3. If the behavior does not immediately, then run for as long as necessary to make you to be sure that the behavior will not occur.
    4. Add one more thing - no matter how tempting, one.
    5. If the behavior does not immediately present, and then runs for long enough to be sure he won't have the same problem
    6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are responsible or the behavior presents

    When the behavior shows up, you know the culprit... the last thing you have loaded.

    If the behavior doesn't re-present, then you know that step 1 or 2 cured it.

    If the behavior has anything, then you have probably a problem of material level for which no amount of OS or software can heal.

    You may also use these tips:

    If you are on a MAC, you are limited to only your sanctioned carriers OS packages... but can still use any level they currently have to sanction. See this procedure:

  • BlackBerry Smartphones embarrassing phone!

    I have a Blackberry Torch 9810 (GSM). I bought it from the RIM, Canada in February. After buying the phone, I went to the India. Right from day 1, I had problems with my phone. The 'Her' related process crashes often. music does not play, ring tones are not heard, and worse, when I dial / receive a call, I don't hear anything. The only solution for this is to pull my battery out, put back in and wait for my phone to turn on again. This not only drains my battery but also me irritated. And lately, the touch screen is not working or the other. To restart the phone, the touch screen works perfectly. As sensitive and responsive as it should be, but it is not for a long time and ends by turns off. When contacted the service center, I learned that it's a software issue. Re-installing the software for which I was charged and the problem still persists. My phone is running OS7.0 Bundle 2395. This problem really gets on my nerves.

    BlackBerry has a solution for me?

  • HELP blackBerry Smartphones: Contacts in case of failure to show in a letter - watch 'NO ADDRESS FOUND.

    I'm helping a friend.  She has a Blackberry Curve 8300 with AT & T.  His work email is synchronized via the web AT & T Blackberry Page, http://www.att.com/blackberry .  There is no customer of the business running on the server.  All e-mails are synchronized via a webmail server.

    Normally, you can go to contacts and enter a letter, contacts jump to that letter.  When you enter more letters, it starts to narrow the results, allowing you to quickly find a contact with just 3 or 4 letters.

    In this case, even if there are 1129 address entries in the directory, when you enter the, for example, to search for contacts beginning with the letter L, it shows NO ADDRESS FOUND.  I scrolled the list (which took forever) and found that in fact, there a lot of contacts that began with the letter L - at least 20-30.  Currently, contacts are displayed by name, and I tried to put into service at the last name and company with the same results.

    There was a similar to this post, but he exercises his activities in an atmosphere of business - it's not.  Any ideas on how to solve this problem?  The phone just started doing this and as you can imagine, takes a very long time to scroll through the contacts of 1129 to find one, you are looking for.  Use of category helps, but still, 1129 contacts in about 6 categories... always means lots of scrolling!

    Any ideas?  Please help - thanks!

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    Whenever random strange behaviors creep, 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.

    Best!
