Seeing bright red blackBerry Smartphones BB 9000 flashes only 10 minutes?

After receiving a new email (for example) the red light flashes. The flashing lasts about 10 minutes and then stops. I want to Flash until I have access to the mailbox, be it in 5 minutes, 25 minutes or 2 hours. I had several BB models previously and all flashed until the mailbox is accessible regardless of the time. Anyone know if this is normal in the 9000?

If so it would be really embarrassing because after not using the phone say during lunch for an hour, the display is powered down and dark, need to wake up, a key is required to bring up the application for a passsword, the password must be entered and submitted... and once accepted I so lucky to see the right mailbox icon to determine if I have received messages... all lost effort so now new messages. Not good.

I hope someone can point me towards a framework to solve this problem, but neither me nor ATT could find a.

Thank you.

Hi and welcome to the forums! Merry Christmas!

It is a design 'done' the phone, because I can't really call it a feature!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BB 9000 os 5.0 update

    Hello Sir/Madam

    Please help me for my BB Bold 9000 Os update

    I install BB 7 Desktop Manager and I used to update the operating system of v.5... 0 for the mobile, but then that update it shows the error and it gives an error at "CONNECTING TO jVM" and it shows the error to "APPLICATION LOADER WAS UNABLE TO CONNECT WITH YOUR DEVICE. "PLEASE RE-CONNECT YOUR DEVICE, ENTER THE PASSWORD IF NECESSARY AND CLICK RETRY.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    The easiest way is, on a PC (you can not do on MAC):

    (1) make sure that you have a current backup and your BB complete... you can find the instructions at the link in my auto-sig below.

    2) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,

    (3) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

    (4) download and install on your computer, the BB OS package you want:

    • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    • 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.

    5) 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

    6 (a) to change your level of BB OS installed (at level or lower), you can run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC.

    6 (b) or, for recharging your BB OS level installed as well to change, work around the Desktop software and use the CHARGER. EXE directly, through step 2 in this process:

    If, during the process of 6a or 6 b, your BB has an error '507', simply unplug the USB of the BB cord and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue.

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

    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 unnecessary LED flashes grid my patience!

    Hey everybody. I'm new to the forum so just thought I'd say 'Hi' until I'm in my question.

    Here's my deal so far:

    I hate outgoing e-mail notifications and have not found a suitable means to stop. When I try to log into my BIS (I use Verizon), it is said to log on my phone. I do this and there is no options for filtering messages or anything like that. I tried messing around with Gmail and preferences the preferences of the phone and that you can't seem to stop! (does anyone think that raging huge construction when click you 'send' on your computer and you just wait that your stupid blinking at you seeing?) Ham, I know)

    My original solution was to simply remove my email from my phone account and use app. Gmail it does work decently, doesn't seem as sensitive or fast as the curve built in the message browser and I cannot cut/copy/paste this is mind-boggling. BUT, I don't have to worry ever saw that effing turn on when I don't have to! (I suppose that this isn't simply the light, it is the fact that I have a new message "BOLD" and plays even if it's just the opposite of the 'new' for me)

    Unfortunately, the facebook app relies on the link between your email to the BB, so I was with my original solution, my facebook app would be not updated at all.

    to review:

    I just want to have my facebook app was updated regularly, but I don't want to have to deal with the crazy BB need to tell me that I sent someone. I did a lot of research on the web and have found work around solutions to people such as those mentioned previously:

    Connect to BIS and filter yourself -could not find this option anywhere on the verizon BIS page. I don't see are email acct, answer to, your name, password, signature, auto bbc and remove the sync items.

    change the profiles of sounds to inform any new electronic messages - just because it does not make a noise and is not my flashing LED does not mean that I have still a big waste stinking icon notification and "BOLD" 'new' message in my Inbox

    I hope that my melodramatic rage has not put off anyone considering to help me! Thanks in advance

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    WOW - Thanks! I didn't need to cite this particular KB in a long time! This is a Ko that documents what to do to correct the problem:

    KB10332 Duplicate sent email message arrives on the BlackBerry smartphone when sent using a built-in Gmail account

    Follow precisely - I know it works, I had to use the filter on the Association the first time that I have configured GMail. But, frankly, the best solution is the first... Delete and re-create the BIS conduit. VZW (and all carriers) have recently updated their BIS servers, and the only way to get the new version is to remove and recreate the BIS conduit. But... a cautionary... see this KB for reconciliations features you'll enjoy... as well as others, will miss you:

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BB 9000 "BOLD" how to display Arabic text SMS

    I'm new to these forums so sorry if I am posting this in the wrong place... Please redirect me if so.

    Recently bought BB bold 9000 Vodafone Aust. Need to know how to display messages or emails received in the ARABIC text... any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    Download the operating system for the carrier and use the Application Loader within the Desktop Manager software (that came with the box) and select Arabic with the language options (if it is an option).

    Alternatively you could install the operating system of an Arab company (is to delete the vendor.xml file), but this is not recommended.

    This is my website (the short version) instructions:

    Get an operating system from here:http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

    ----------------------------------

    The operating system of software downloaded from the Blackberry site contains all of the files required to recharge the o/s.
    The Desktop Manager software is NOT necessary!

    Once downloaded and installed, follow these instructions:

    • Download the file from the OS from the website of your carrier to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.
    • Go to c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
    • Plug in BB and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

    The process takes about 45 minutes to an hour depending on the amount of data you need to back up and restore during the process. Once he did load the new OS, it will reboot (it may do it twice during the entire process.) You will see a white screen with a hourglass up to 20 minutes at a time while the DM says "waiting for initialization." If, for any reason, you end up with a white screen with small icons and the number 507, simply reconnect to the PC and run Loader.exe again and it should load the operating system on the device.

    Hello

    Before reloading your OS, please try this sequence... Note that during throughout the entire process 4h15m, your BB must 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 charge 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.

    Good luck and let us know!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones LED keeps flashing, even when there is no new notification

    The LED on my BlackBerry keeps flashing and I can't work out why. I have no new emails, messages, Facebook notifications, Twitter mentions, appointments/calendar of events and the LED does not flash for new articles in TIME magazine app in any way. None of the other applications has nothing to tell me of one.

    I've updated the OS for a long time, so I don't see that being the cause of the problem, which means that I can't work on why the led continues to blink, unless my BlackBerry is broken.

    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Running OS v4.6.1.310 (Platform 4.2.0.127)

    Hi sorry it took me so long to answer, I read the email on my BB and then forgot about it. I discovered that it is the application that I use for Twitter, which has been the cause, whenever a new tweet came in my editing it would be flash alert me and sometimes it seems to go a little crazy himself and not stop blinking, but whatever it takes, it's for me to close the application.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones 9100 internal Flash not regarded as mass storage device

    BB 9100 (OS5) when connected to the laptop USB does not show memory internal player "Blackberry1. Only media card shows as drive "Blackberry user tools.

    Tried it on WIN XP and WIN7 and get the same results.

    Synchronization with DTM 6 works fine. Driver USB BB Smartphone is 4.1.0.4.

    My 9000 "BOLD" (OS5) and the Torch 9800 (OS6) show the internal memory and the press card as readers on the same laptop to try with the 9100.

    Is the drive of "Blackberry user tools" the equivalent of what I'm used to because two separate drives on the "BOLD" and the torch?

    Is this unique to the Pearl? Someone else?

    So, Yes, this is part of the 256 MB memory unit.  It's the same memory used for the operating system.  I do not recommend to use in any storage media or documents.  Make sure that almost everything is recorded on the press card.  In otherwise you will fill the memory of your device and eventually the operating system will remove the logs of calls, emails, texts, etc.

    Your 9000 (as well as some other features) boasts an additional memory location that works as a multimedia card integrated.  It's different than the 256 MB memory unit on your 9100.

  • Battery for blackBerry Smartphones BB 9000 "BOLD"

    I have a BB Bold 9000 I want to reactivate for next trip. Love the phone. I bought a battery 'new' from our electronics store. It worked for about 2 minutes and charge currently; Peel the sticker off the Chinese coast of its some garbage. Can anyone recomment a source for a good battery for my old friend? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    You could, but I'm sure that there are internal circuits to overload prevention, indication of charge level etc. I don't think that there are simple cells.

  • Image screen blackBerry Smartphones BB 9000 home resets on sync

    I got the new "BOLD" (AT & T) a couple of days. In the Explorer of Windows XP, I copied a .jpg file in the folder images of BB. Then the unit set this image as an image of the home screen.

    So far so good.

    But whenever I have to synchronize the device with the PC, it resets the image.

    Am I missing a step?

    Thanks in advance.

    If your image is stored on the media card and mass storage mode is enabled on the card, when you are connected to the USB port, the BB device cannot access the Media Card as it does not exist as a removable drive on your PC, and you'll see the default image for its time.

    Usually, when you unplug the USB key, your image stored on the card of support will return.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones LED stops flashing

    I just got a new version of the 8310, I had a 8310 before also, in any case, this one the light stops flashing. Is it because this isn't a network signal? I'm puzzled.

    Welcome to the cncanning forums

    There is a setting for the led cover located in the Options > keyboard/screen. If it is set on IT then the light should blink as long as you have a wireless network coverage. If you lose coverage then it stops flashing.

  • BlackBerry smartphones my 9000 "BOLD" device software upgrade

Please try again.  I tried again without success.  Any suggestions? Fortunately, my BB was not damaged.

    Well Yes, later.

    So... one thing, disconnect the Blackberry to the computer device. Restart the computer turned off.

    With the BlackBerry device powered time, remove battery for a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to restart.

    And try it all again.

  • Red blackBerry Smartphones with a diagonal line battery icon

    My phone shows a battery with a red diagonal icon.  I thought the battery had finally died and ordered a new battery.  When I installed the new battery it displays the same thing.  I tried the support questions and disconnected from the charger, removed the battery, waited awhile, reinstalled the battery and then plugged into the charger.  Nothing.

    I tried the same procedure, but used the USB cable to try to load through USB in case my charger was the problem.

    I waited for a while now and always displays the icon.

    Any help?

    Thank you.

    Yep, looks like your port USB BB might be defective IF it does not load.

    You can try changing USB cables (yours could be bad), if you have already done this.

    You might find someone with the same BB battery (same color, blue dark, 8700 or 8300, not a 8100 no) and if they have a fully charged battery, attempt to restart the BB with this battery.

  • Turn off the blackBerry smartphone Bold 9000 password?

    I made the mistake of turning on the password on my 9000 "BOLD" last week.  It took a weekend to decide the security is not worth the pain it causes trying to use my phone for simple tasks.

    So I went back to tools-> Options-> Security Options system and tried disabling "Content Protection."  Activation of this feature, that's what works the password in the first place then it seemed a logical way to Undo my mistake. No luck.

    Can someone give me a hand with this?  My "BOLD" is not defined on any company BES server that I know.

    Options > Security > General settings.

    According to the release of the OS you're on (you don't say), it might be Options > password.
