Smartphones from blackBerry Curve 8310 - GPS does not
Late afternoon, the GPS on my BlackBerry decided to stop working. "Refresh GPS" does nothing, just a bunch of 0 against all areas. I took a colleague BlackBerry (the same exact model since they both work) and standing on a selected spot "refresh GPS" on both phones. Mine still gives a bunch of zeros, while the other spits is rather less than a second. I didn't fall out or something. Infact, it was fine in the morning. What is going on?
I also tried out the battery for 5 minutes before putting call. It does not either.
Hi and welcome to the forums!
Go to options, State. On the main status screen, type the word test.
There is no entry for that field, just type and you will see a device of that self-test.
Click Run, and then select GPS.
Let us know the results.
Thank you

Downloaded App World to my Curve 8310, downloaded and installed fine. If I try to launch it, I get the message:
"Improve your service to a plan that includes browsing and discover a world of possibilities at BlackBerry App World." Contact your service provider for more details. »
Device: Curve 8310
Carrier: T-Mobile UK
OS version: 4.5.0.69 (Platform 2.7.0.72)
Service: BIS
Plan includes unlimited Web "walk (surfing the internet) and e-mail Blackberry." Have no problem using the internet, navigation, to receive emails or using other programs who plan needs database work, so don't understand is not this error.
I have reported this to T-Mobile, though, becauseI believes that the error was some kind of problem between the RIM and the British company, I had seen reports of users using all UK carriers with the same or similar messages. But after reading the answer ffrom rim on another thread for the same problem on the Vodafone network and telling them that it was a problem of Vodafone, I wonder if I should ring T-Mobile.
A response from a member of the cabin CREW would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Hello
I got to work, here's what I did: -.
Spoke in support of T-Mobile who said they do not support the App until it has been tested, but they said they had some success in helping customers get connected.by return service directories. So I have them return their but before I did I battery traction I removed the Appworld (Options > Advanced Options > Applications select Blackberry App World, press menu, select Remove) once removed, I pulled the battery and waited for about a min. Once rebooted I have re-uploaded the application using the link from the email I had, then installed. App World now opens.
Hope this helps anyone with the same problem

Update of Smartphones from blackBerry Curve 8310
Hello. I realize that there are a lot of topics explaining OE to upgrade these smartphones. However, none of them address the issue I am experiencing.
I'm trying to upgrade Blackberry Curve my wife v4.2.2.181 (Platform 2.5.0.35) to the latest OS (v4.5.0.302).
It's an O2 handset unlocked running on Vodafone UK.
I run the Desktop v6 software. It recognizes the phone without problem, but will not accept that there is an upgrade available.
I downloaded the new OS and deleted the file vendor.xml without success.
The opening of the list of applications in the desktop software, it shows only three applications: Bloss (Status: mandatory); Bloss One Click (Status: mandatory); and Google Sync (Status: installed).
Screenshot:
I get the same list of apps in the app Loader program. I know that from my own phone (Curve 8320 which walking without probs) it should show the OS and various other softphone.
I would be grateful for any idea that anyone can give!
Hello
I advice you jump in front of Desktop software (with the exception of the backup/restore). From a PC, you can install any bundle of BONES to a BB via this procedure:
Note that although written for "reload", it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or recharge - it depends on the OS package you download and install on your PC. You can even use a different OS package carriers simply insert, between steps 1 and 2, the deletion, on your PC, a file named PROVIDER. XML. remember that you remove, since any other devices OS BB as packages with more than one installed on the PC, your PC may result in conflicts with this procedure.
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:

Good luck and let us know!

Smartphones from blackBerry Curve 8310 - where is the mute button?
I have my Curve 8310 in a form-fitting of CaseMate case and he withdrew when a message arrived at the screen on the seizure in standby mode and press the Mute button to exit this mode. I can't find any info in the manual about the location the Mute button and the search in the forum, someone says that it's the key to the upper right. Basically, I kept all the keys pressing on and he left the standby mode but now I'm trying to understand how to enter and exit the standby and exactly where is the Mute key. If the device is locked or not, by pressing the upper right does not put the unit in standby mode.
Thank you for your help.

Smartphones from blackBerry Curve 8310 ceased to sync with Outlook calendar
My BB Curve 8310 with BB Desktop 5.0 timed perfectly with my address book and calendar until it downloaded and installed the BB 4.5.0 Software and BB 4.5.0 Core Application programs today. Now, it only synchronizes the address book of Outlook. I rebooted the computer and the phone, but this is not enough. BB desktop synchronization settings shows that it is supposed to synchronize the calendar and address book. What does the 4.5.0 change? Can / should I uninstall the 4.5.0 new programs?
I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software 4.5 and everything works well again. The BB is synchronization of address book Outlook and calendar again perfectly. The download and installation of the new software 4.5 original must have been defective.

Smartphones from blackBerry Curve 8520 - WiFi works not
Hello
I tried everything I read on the forums to get the WiFi connection works, but I could not:
* reset the BB by removing the battery
try different security settings for the WiFi, including disabling security
Any help will be appreciated.

I suggest you reboot your home router... do you know how?
Normally, you remove the electrical connection at the back of the router and the data cable in, both for a minute, replace and the router will be reset.

BlackBerry Smartphones update Blackberry Curve 8310 and lost all data
Help, please!
I received a text message that I needed to update my Blackberry Curve 8310 4.3 (I think). I went to my computer and connected to blackberry.com and did the update. The message then said that I had to update my Desktop Manager. I've done both. But she erased ALL my contacts and data. No emails and worse still no address. My screen is completely different. My Office Manager was not my old data.
It was a bad day, has laid off and now all my contacts are gone.
If someone knows a way to retrieve my contacts, I would be very grateful.
Hallelujah!
It worked! It's a good day, found the RPI buried on the disk and retrieved. I must somehow be saved from a month ago.
Thank you!!!

Smartphones from blackBerry Curve 8330 sync with Mac
I just bought my Blackberry Curve and it is not sync with Mac pocket... is there a solution for mac users?
If you have one of the new fast devices, you may need to use a patch. It is not a problem with your device: it is just that the connection software has been changed AFTER the last program of PocketMac has been published. A new is put to the test, but for the moment, there is a patch to connect to your new devices. There is a special way to install it on top of the regular program of PocketMac, so just follow these steps and you should be able to connect:
Is there a solution for this. First of all, go to the download page: http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/mac.jsp
and start the download process. When you move to the download screen, select PocketMac V4.0.20b for BlackBerry. Then, on the next screen, you have two choices of program to download.
You've probably already downloaded the first one under the heading "PocketMac V4.0.20b for BlackBerry." If you have deleted it, go ahead and download again.
Since you have one of the newer devices (like the 8110, 8120, 8130, 8310 or 8330), you may also need to download the patch that allows to connect you to those as well. This patch is on the same page, the section, "PocketMac Driver update - DriverUpdate.dmg."
TO INSTALL:
1 IMPORTANT: Disconnect your BlackBerry from your Macintosh.
2. If you have uninstalled PocketMac for BlackBerry, reinstall the main program now.
3. when the Setup program has finished, you will be asked to reboot. DO NOT CLICK on the button to restart.
4. install the driver update file please, this installer will finish very quickly.
5. Finally, restart the Macintosh, now that the software driver and application updater installers are completed.Once restart is completed, please launch PocketMac for Blackberry, then plug-in your BlackBerry handheld. Click the sync button to start the synchronization session.
If you can still can connect, here are a few steps you can perform to ensure that the new patch is installed correctly:
1. Please disconnect your BlackBerry and account up to 60 seconds. This allows for the
driver for completely free. (Probably, the pilot was not out there the last time you tried to install the patch, if it has not installed correctly.)2. Please open Finder and navigate to the following location: MacintoshHD/System/Library/Extensions /.
3. in the "Extensions" folder, you will see a list of .kext files. Scroll down the long list and locate the two files that begin with «BlackBerry» files
4. Please remove these two files from your Mac: 'BlackBerry.kext' and 'BlackBerryUSBDev.kext '. You will need your administrator password Apple user account to delete these files in the Extensions folder. After in this case, empty your trash, please.
6 reinstall the driver. When you finish the program installation/driver package, please reboot your Macintosh.
7. Finally, plug your BlackBerry handheld, then launch PocketMac for BlackBerry. PocketMac Sync Manager should now be able to find your BlackBerry.

Music of blackBerry Smartphones with blackberry curve 8310
So I bought a used blackberry curve 8310 off ebay a few months but never changed any information that the previous owner had here other than my name and such. on the blackberry desktop manager, he still has his information, how can I update my phone to put music on it without losing all my contacts and information that I already put on here? If that makes sense
The SIM card is located under the battery, you will see a metal locking slider. The memory card is not the same as the SIM card. Make sure you align the contacts of the same side. Close the guide wire and reglissez in place.
-
I took a brief look at the questions on the CARDS, but none of these go to the ART GPS end does not. (I'm sure it's somewhere in the support forums, but I found nto).
I have the icon of the WAP on my Blackberry Curve 8520. But when I click it I don't see is a grid nd no card. I checked Options Options/Advanced/cards and it is said by default Blackberry MAPS Service - EU. I also checked the place settings and under GPS Data Source it comes up with a list of all my contacts id bluetooth I suspect this is where it goes wrong, but I can't be sure.
How can I put the correct GPS data source. How/where can I set this up please. ???
Thank you
JJ
Any other ideas as to why the Blackberry connects sometimes to devices and sometimes does not. I saw him sign for a brief moment especially for my GPS dongle. Then fell to new. The signal on the dongle seems it continues to blink.
When I take my BB in my car it instantly takes the car blue tooth
Don't understand why he doesn't connect properly on my GPS unit now.

Smartphones from blackBerry Curve 8530 is not connecting to WiFi
I have a blackberry curve 8530 and get a message Traoré says, "Failed to associate with the network." My Wi - Fi is not secure, but I implemented a filtering of MAC addresses. I entered the MAC address of my BB in the filter list, so it should work. I have a Linksys WRT54G2 router. My phone can see the network, but cannot connect. Any ideas?
Hi mdishe01,
Are you able to connect your BlackBerry to any other open network? If you disable the address filtering Mac is able to connect to the network in your BlackBerry?

Synchronize the Smartphones from blackBerry Curve 9360, questions and information
Hi and thanks for this area. I just got my new 9360. It will only allow me to sync my Outlook. The prospects are great, but when I read, and then delete the messages on this subject, the curve, it will not remove them as it does, today, if I read them in Yahoo?
Also, is there a way/method/configuration I could enjoy making Outlook the problem explained above...
Sincerely, Mike
Hello
There is no direct synchronization between your BB and your client Outlook PC. Instead, each is synchronized, for what he is able, against your mail server.
For your BB, synchronization between him and the server is governed by the present:
- KB05133 Features of the BlackBerry Internet Service email reconciliation
For your Outlook synchronization depends on how you have your Outlook integrated to your server. If POP, then deleted item synchronization does not occur when an item is deleted from the server (which is where it will be deleted when you delete your BB). If the IMAP, then it must synchronize deleted on the server on your Outlook items.
Good luck!

Info transfer of Smartphones from blackBerry curve a Bold 9700
I'm trying to transfer my contacts from my old curve to my new Bold 9700 using the Blackberry Desktop Software (v. 6.0.0.40). I have two questions: (1) I keep prompted for a password for each of the devices, but it does not recognize my device passwords and keep asking myself the passwords - what am I doing wrong? and (2) it is possible to transfer only the contacts and nothing else? (My boyfriend of systems already transferred my emails).
Thank you
Bob
Sorry, everybody.
I feel like a * beep *-the problem I have had with my device passwords was my fault. The character that I kept thinking has a number (number on my Blackberry) was in fact a letter, and I needed to enter it as a letter on the keyboard of my computer. For example, I thought, it was "5555" was actually "dddd".

CHRISALIS, try this first... with your 9380 connected to the wall charger and BlackBerry power, remove the battery and reinsert it to restart. This will often reset the battery meter on the device (which over time can become out of sync with the actual load of the battery). You may need to try this over a few times the next day and the next.
Don't let not your battery to flow all the way to 0-10%, top it off during the day when you can, even for 15 minutes.
