Smartphones blackBerry Blackberry PRIV is a terrible phone!

I do not bash Blackberry, I just used to others. They should understand all the problems with this stupid phone, before shelling out the $700 want Blackberry for the phone on their Web site. So here is a short list of problems you will encounter, if you buy the phone as does PRIVATE Blackberry cannot load, if you use the phone, which I've NEVER owned a phone that has no load, while I used it! That a question is so bad, that I'll never buy a Blackberry phone once again, because told me that this is the problem on all Blackberry, turning under Android. What a horrible design that has this phone! The only good thing is the physical keyboard.

There phone heat constantly. The memory card slot, often fails. The phone cannot charge while using it. You must leave the phone on charge, by using not, at all. SIM card slots and memory, are difficult to access and prone to breaking. With voice calls, the person at the other end, can not hear your first. It takes a second or two for them to hear you. It is very difficult to add contacts. Options that are supposed to allow adding contacts you, do not work, in the way that they should. You can't automatically download files on the memory card. You need to change the settings and download applications, in order to transfer the contents of the internal memory of the phone, on the SD card. Spell check does not work as it does on other phones. You will see all possible spellings on the keyboard, but you can't click on them and have the typed word. In addition, with this problem, you must rear space, in order to correctly add the words that you really wanted to. There's no removable battery. It has an extremely annoying Nanny-Like function, where it will continue to change your curse words and other spellings of words, in the words 'SAFE' In addition, the Mini-USB port is really sensitive to breakage. I bought this phone, because it has a hard keyboard - where, a lot of memory internal, it runs the latest version of Android and it is still able to keep the upgrade of the OS, the lives of decent battery, support up to 2 TB of memory SD card, big screen, ect. I know that some of these problems are caused by Android, but it's a Blackberry version of the AndroidOS, so they could have customized it better. If you can buy it for about $ 150 to $ 200, then it might possibly be worth it for you. But not $700 +. I really wanted to love this phone, but I don't see lasting more then a year. The PRIV of Blackberry, is just a poorly designed phone. I could go on, but I guess you get the point. A horrible phone, with a LOT of questions!

Oh and Blackberry, stop trying to invade my privacy with your stupid Hub service! I don't want that, but I am always harassed to register for it!

The OP is a BlackBerry "troll" pure and simple. The OP groaned and then refuse to make adjustments that manage the issues. Do not confuse the OP with the facts because their mind is made.

BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Priv bricks during update MM

Hello everyone,

As a user of BB for a long time (since the curve 8310 until the Passport), I couldn't resist the temptation and I ended up buying a private AT & T unlocked the B & H store in Manhattan during my vacation.

As soon as I come home in Spain, I started the MM updated procedure with an autoloader, according to the following instructions: http://global.blackberry.com/en/support/smartphones/blackberry-PRIV/reload.html

I downloaded the SW AAF355 version and drivers USB (computer restarts after the installation).

Installation script has detected the Priv in fastboot mode after lowering the volume + key combination of power and apparently started the update, but suddenly the phone restarted with black screen and led flashes between purple and green.

Quick notes: I've updated devices BB10 via autoloader a couple of times and I did the update did not complete successfully using Mac OS (latest version), but I tried tha same procedure from a W7 PC too.

Now, I'm still stuck with black screen and led flashing and computer does not detect the phone more. I tried all combinations of possible keys try to restart the phone but no luck.

So I ask help to members of the community on what can I do to get it fixed, cause I think that the problem of Mayor is I'm in Spain...

Thanks in advance.

OK, it seems that I finally I could remedy then I'll write the steps that I followed, just in case.

In my case, I was not able to start the phone in following mode fastboot with all combinations of keys, and the computer it has not detected:

-Low volume + button.

-High volume + button.

-All buttons pressed at the same time.

But after some trial and error, I pressed the middle (the toddler between flight up and down) button + power button and the phone started in mode 'starting'

The computer detects it and loaded MM autoloader (first attempt get stuck again, but a 2nd went until the end). After that the phone boot up normally.

Thanks to all the members of the BB community and have a nice day!

BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry App World crashes my phone.

BlackBerry App World crashes my phone. After turning the phone off and on again, I get the following message: untrapped exception application net_rim_bb_appworld (1222) does not respond, the process is complete.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but it does not appear as an application in the desktop software, so now I don't know what to do at all.

Help, please!

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.

You can uninstall the device itself... Options > Advanced Options > Applications > highlight the App BBAppWorld > BBKey > delete

Then get the batt restart - again.

Then try reinstalling the AppWorld.

Best!

BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry PRIV battery drain & heating problem

Hello Blackberry, team

I bought PRIVATE released last week from classic BB. PRIV has severe heating and battery especially drainage problem while loading and between 100% and 40% of battery (drains 60%) in 1-2 hours.

Note that I do not use heavy duty applications and it heats up even when kept or wait (especially during loading).

My Apps are up to date

Operating system is up to date

I have restored several times, but still have the same question (even if no other apps are installed).

Question: Is it a solution to this? BlackBerry is working on it or just forget it and move on to other brands?

Finally and above all, I'm on Blackberry for the past 12 years... I really hope they take their clients seriously around the world.

Hey parthz8,

Sometimes it happened while the load when I got 5.1.1 but now with Android M 6.0 seems to be fixed.

What I was doing when it was happening, it is to reset the phone with the power button for 10 seconds while it was still connected to the charger. Sometimes a couple of reset is necessary

Smartphones blackBerry [PRIV] 'No Service'

I have a Priv and beginning on Friday, September 16 I started having this problem 'No Service', with tangential versions, including "no SIM - no Service". I've improved the marshmallow in June, really didn't even know that I did at the time. And they probably had more recent updates but I don't keep track. I got on the phone since April and it worked perfectly until Sept. 16.

If I get into a zone where connectivity plunges 'No. Service' it forces me to physically change the location of the phone, and then restart the phone to find a signal. One of the dead for connectivity zones happens to my home office, so I can make is more calls and texts while working.

I had a passport, which I loved, but changed for the Priv because the passport had no supported applications. I love the Priv and want to stay with Blackberry, but if it does not get fixed I'll have to make a change.

UPDATE

The fix for this problem that summer added to the KB below.

38530 "No. Service" appears on the AT & T PRIV > http://blck.by/2fMB1kX

Thank you all for your patience!

BlackBerry Smartphones BlackBerry PRIV: amps support

Hello

first:

I did not yet find a forum for the new PRIVATE of BlackBerry. It would be very useful to have to ask pre-sales questions like mine like you already accept them pre-orders. That way I wouldn't need to post in the wrong forum, as I am doing right now...

Now the real question:

Does PRIVATE BlackBerry support amps?

I expect to support it, of course, as also the other current BlackBerry phones, but I wanted to just make sure before I decide to buy it.

Best regards

Andreas

Hi @ab-tools

I can confirm that PRIV contains AMPS support. I hope this helps!

Thank you

BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Priv and Fuji Instax share App (needs to control WiFi connections)

Hey all,.

as I have found no e-mail address to communicate directly with Blackberry on this problem (I hate to use Twitter, their support is atrocious (using answers pre-formulated to 'help you')), I hope I can find help from you guys.

When you use the 'Instax Share' app to print photos from my private, it does not work.

First, you will need to connect to the printer via WiFi (this step works), but I can't change the printer settings in the app. Can I not send my photos to the printer.

When I try, I get the error message "no printer not found", even though I am obviously linked to the unit.

When you check the extended permission settings, the field that would allow the application control WiFi connections is gray. The only parameters that can be modified are access to contacts, memory, taking photos and video and GPS.

Anyone got a good idea on how to solve this problem?

My guess: Priv Android is coded too sure. Furthermore, I use Android 6.0.1.

P.S.: the application works on any non-Blackberry-Android phone (rooted and without root).

OK, so to clarify, this isn't a device of BES. In addition, you can control completely independent WiFi connections on the device. But the application cannot control the WiFi connections, that he must perform in order to function. Fix?

If it is accurate, then it continues to point to the application itself, not the device or the device OS... When you installed the application, he should have asked approve you a variety of security access so that it will run... If you do not approve those, you have limited it. If she has not asked for approval, then the application developer needs to fix this.

Smartphones blackBerry in Israel and the phone said App World is not available in my country

Hello, I just bought a new Blackberry Bold 9700 in Israel, and the phone tells me that app World is not available in my country. I hope Blackberry plans to fix it soon as the i-phone and androids are open here to their app worlds. Anyway, is there a way I can download apps without AppWorld? Otherwise it was the biggest waste of money ever - without the Smartphone applications are not so different from cheap phones, and blackberries just shouldn't be sold here if the services are not available.

If I go to America download while I'm there? and apps stays on my phone when I go back to Israel?

Hi and welcome to the Forums!

Please check this page to ensure that you meet the minimum requirements (including if it is available in your country):
- http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/services/appworld/download.jsp
If it is available in your country and you feel you meet the requirements at the level of the device, and then contact your provider to make sure you meet the requirements of the plan (to them) access (via their network) service to AppWorld.

In addition, AppWorld is currently accessible only through your corporate data network - WiFi is not used for access to AppWorld under any circumstances.

Further still, you should know that AppWorld is simply a portal, vending apps developed mainly by others. Therefore, it is not your exclusive supply source - there are others that you can try (e.g., Handango, Handmark, BPlay, GetJAR and Mobihand). I found that there are very few applications that is exclusive to AppWorld. You can see the online catalogue and then look for other sources of supply, including quite often on the developer website.

Finally, understand that RIM has no unilateral control over the availability of AppWorld. On the contrary, a triad of entities must agree - RIM, wireless service provider, and Government. As the main entity to profit in this triad, I've always suspected that the RIM is not one that could hinder the process.

Good luck!

BlackBerry Smartphones BlackBerry Priv typing Lag

Hi guys, I am using this fantastic Priv for almost 3 weeks. Lately, I've noticed you meet large emails on Blackberry Email, typing seems to be trolling (key virtual and physical). alphabets takes some time to appear. However, when you compose new emails, I have no problem. I was wondering if someone the same experience. Thank you cheers!

Could not agree more. Finally I have to reset the device again and the issue no longer exists. Thank you valer466.

Smartphones blackBerry 9360: help! Stolen phone

Hi, people and Hello Blackberry...
I had a Curve 9360 and its been stolen about a month ago... I am currently borrow my friends Blackberry...

The thief who stole my phone is currently using the blackberry... I know because when I send a message through PIN to a phone without BIS... It does not say "D" next to the message... However, to the phone that was stolen, says a "D" for delivered next to the PIN message...

I have already mentioned the phone stolen from the police, they have evidance of the person... They just cannot identify the person

I need Blackberry to look through the system and see who is registered on the device at the moment.

Please help me!

It is a community of users support forum. We are not employed RIM, but volunteers who enjoy helping other users. ON-BOARD staff rarely comment on queries posted here.

Quite honestly, the police can get a result, they know how to work with mobile service providers to keep track of stolen devices.

If the mobile service provider or the police to follow, they can do. But it is up to them.

I have the BES/BIS on "BOLD" data packet and data package IPhone 3 g with Blackberry Connect for the mail of the company.

If your company supports Activesync and BES so technically you should be able to synchronize two devices. Simply enter the Exchange settings in the iPhone and you'll be ready to go.
