• Smartphones from blackBerry Storm 2 (9550) synchronization of Contact with the Desktop Version 5.0.1.18 and Outlook 2003

  I just took my Blackberry last week and now in train to synchronize my contacts and have problems. I put the desktop software to replace the device to Outlook. That's why destroy all contacts on the device.

  All my contacts are sorted the name, first name. By examining the details of the synchronization (before it actually applies), I see that all the contacts on the camera original should be deleted (it's good!). But I find that some of the contacts are ignored and will not be added. In addition, some family names are now given names, and vice versa. When I have a John & Cathy'sname and a surname of Jones (for example), John is added as the first name, & is added in the middle and Jones is added under the family name. Nothing after the & is ignored.

  Is there a solution to this problem of synchronization? Are there better synchronisation software out there?

  Thank you

  Dwyne

  In talking with the Blackberry expert at the local Verizon store, I find the problem and the solution in the following way:

  Using the example "John and Cathy Jones '... The sync software looks at the name of Outlook in the format of "first-name vacuum vacuum-name last-name '. So when white was found during the synchronization, it assumes the & is the name of way and he picks up the last characters to the family name. I had to fix all my names "JohnCathy Jones" or "John & Cathy Jones". Two of these formats properly synchronized. However, the synchronization software does not care what is in the field of 'Society' Outlook, all characters are synchronized.

  Problem solved.

  Oh I c, you say the BB plan has not been activated? But at least the SIM card should be registered?

  Yes and yes it should be... but:

  This carrier of storm is unlocked for use on one medium other than that in which he is the brand?

  To determine whether your BlackBerry is already "unlocked":
  1. on your BlackBerry, go to Options > Advanced Options > Sim Card.
  2. in this screen type MEPD (see note below) on your keyboard. A new menu will appear.
  * If your BlackBerry has a keyboard SureType (71xx, 81xx, 91xx devices) you will need to double-click the P keys real entries become M E P P D.
  3. search for the network in the list.
  4. If your device is "unlocked", we should have disabled or inactive. If it says active, it is still blocked by this carrier.

  carrier other than that to which it is brand, check out BlackBerry

• When blackBerry Smartphones to plug the charger in BB it charges is more the phone; port does not connect

  I have a Blackberry 8100 model.  When I plug the charger in the Blackberry, the loading icon does not appear on the screen and the phone is not loaded.  If I wiggle the charger port of entry in the phone cable, sometimes it will connect and charge the phone.  This has happened with my first Blackberry to the point where the connection to the port is actually right out of the device, permanently attached to the cable.  At that time, the phone was under warranty and my provider sent me a replacement phone.  Now the same thing is happening again.

  The phone is no longer under warranty and my provider said I have to buy a new phone.  However, the phone and all features work correctly, I can't charge the battery because of the problem with the charger port is loose.  Any suggestions on how I can fix the connection to port or otherwise fix this?

  I got my port of loading fixed to the www.cellphonefixed.com they are based in Seattle, WA and repairs by mail for cheap across the United States.

• Smartphones from blackBerry Storm not recognised on Mac by USB

  My 5 month old storm went south and a new does not appear as a device on Mac by USB.  Verizon gave me a new and it does not appear as a device either.  The old one popped up as a device as soon as I plugged it in.  I'm trying to transfer ringtones to new phone.  Two aides of tech support phone at Verizon had raised his hands in defeat and referred me to Blackberry.  They want the money just to tell me why their much-vaunted technological miracle won't talk to my computers.  Any ideas?

  Thanks for the reply.  This weekend, I drilled into my settings and discovered that the replacement phone that Verizon gave me had Mass Storage disabled.  Once I changed the settings, my Mac could see the phone when connected via USB.

• Smartphones from blackBerry Storm again showing message - no message anywhere...?

  I have my setup of storm for two e-mail accounts and text messaging. About an hour ago my Storm showed an unread message, but for the life of me I can't find it anywhere. The indicator shows the yellow envelope (no red asterisk) and I checked the two mailboxes (both empty), voicemail (empty), and my test of the messages (no unread). Is there a way to know why my storm says I have an unread message? I even took the battery and restarted does not.

  Thank you.

• Smartphones from blackBerry Torch 9800 completely erased during the update

  When I plugged my phone into the computer to charge, an update came on the bb Desktop Manager - to update to 6.0 Bundle 2467 - and I started the update.  After a few minutes, I realized that I have to back up my phone before the update but Office bb wouldn't let me - he said that HE had to be updated.  If the device software update paused until the Office update was complete.  When it was over, the update of the device continued... and I have no back upward.

  Somewhere in the middle of the update (after about half an hour) the phone blinked, there was funny "beep" and a message came that the update could not continue.  The phone has rebooted, but was stuck at about 65%.   I let it sit for a few minutes, still doesn't move do not.  Pulled the battery, let stand a few minutes like that and then reintegrated.  Began to restart, then won again at the same place.  Taken from the battery after a few more minutes and wait for about 15 minutes.

  When I put the battery back, the phone quickly started completely... but because the updater won Mid-implementation to date ALL is lost! Contacts, calendar, memos.

  Is it possible to recover whatever it is? Or all my data lost somewhere in cyberspace is?

  * There is a small file, about 5 MB called Contacts Blackberry so I thought I could synchronize the files from there, but I don't know how!

  Can anyone help?  Really aggravated in this topic...

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  First of all, we will be sure your BB works correctly and with the proper operating system. Is it? What you have said, I can't say for sure. If it does not work, then you can reload your new OS itself, just to be sure. Don't worry about all the data on your BB... he already went there now (based on what you said).

  For your data, Desktop software must have made a backup during the update process... sometimes, we offer the chance to overcome that... I hope that you do not have. In any case search your computer for files with the extension of the IPD or BBB (depending on the version of the Desktop software you use)... These are the files that would have been created on your computer when the update process performed the backup. Look at the time, the files were created... created around the time you were doing the update are candidates to perform a restore of your BB.

  Otherwise, if you had made use of yourself of the free app of the BB Protect your data are indeed "in the clouds" available for to restore you.

  In addition, if you use a Desktop Organizer (for example, Outlook), which must contain your data.

  In addition, if you have none of these, then you have indeed now met data loss, which is sad indeed.

  Good luck!

• Smartphones from blackBerry Torch 9810 in bricks during the update - OS Bundle 1149 7.1.0

  Carrier - Vodafone.

  The unit starts the update and then that's it.

  The device stops on the scene to save and there is absolutely nothing that will stop the update or complete the update.

  My device actually drained its battery during the night while he's stuck.

  Battery grips do not work. The phone re - opens on the scene broken once it restarts.

  I need help fast people.

  Thanks in advance.

  [I know it happens probably, but I have personally never heard of all iPhone users never bricklaying.] [This is one of the reasons contributing to the Apple are taken seriously as a consumer company and RIM not taken particularly seriously, not more.]

  Hi sdgardne,

  Thanks for your advice.

  In fact, until you sent [even if you did respond pretty quickly] I had read somewhere that the question I had seems to be caused by the device trying to save [Yes it * was * an OTA update, I was trying to] and run out of space.

  Tellingly, the process seemed stuck, several times, while the backup process was trying to save my settings social feeds, files etc.

  Because I followed a lot of people on Twitter [5.4 K] and also FB may have back-up stuck at that stage was not surprising.

  So I tried to restart the process of updating together, via the desktop software.

  I managed to restart and paradoxically, I could right there break the cycle re-try to auto by the software update.

  I then cancelled the update total.

  Then I deleted Social RSS, Twitter and Facebook.

  Then I restarted the process of new - OTA update as it happens.

  This time, though lengthy, the update was successful.

  I'm now trying to reinstall the demolished Apps.

  See you soon.

  [No, did I forget to save before you restart the update!]

• BlackBerry 9700 "bold" blackberry smartphones does not connect to wifi

  I have a blackberry bold 9700 and I got it a few days ago and every since then ive been trying to get the wifi working. Phones unlocked by the way.

  I implemented the wifi fine but in manage connections, I have my network in green next to my wifi and a white check mark to the right and its supposed to be a checkmark im assuming.

  No matter what I do my wifi symbol does not illuminate white his gray yet and I have configured the wifi and it says it's connected but still no wifi.

  What settings on my phone or my internet or my phone I do not know now im so confused.

  and I have a router linksys and im with rogers and im new to blackberrys.

  The white tick means that you are connected to WiFi rotate.

  A green check mark indicates that you are connected to the WiFi router AND your BlackBerry BIS data plan. Do you have this data Plan on your mobile service provider account?

  If this is not the case, call them and ask.

  Good luck.

• BlackBerry Curve 8520 smartphones does not connect to wifi

  I've recently updated the software on my phone and now I can't connect to wifi hotspots at work or at home.  the wifi icon remains just Gray, but at the top of the phone, it shows that I am connected to the network.  IM at a loss!

  Help, please!

  where I live, I have no mobile signal and I rely on WIFI to get my emails.

  Thanks in advance.

  It's a problem affecting thousands of users of the BB, mistasifta, not only you. It is not your handset at fault, and it is not related to the upgrade, you did. This is a general problem with BIS connections on wifi. See here: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/BIS-over-WIFI-stopped-working/td-p... RIM acknowledged there is a problem. You could talk to your operator on this subject, but they can't fix it, only the RIM can do. They are working on it, apparently.

• Smartphones from blackBerry Storm 9500 & YouTube

  I noticed that if you stream videos from YouTube the storm using WAP. But I read somewhere that if you have installed the YouTube app & it allows you to stream videos you actually do not use WAP/GPRS; is this true? I just wanted to check that info before you start videos I want to be hit with high fees when I get my Bill at the end of the month. Thank you very much!

  Hi Kaynam69!

  If your YouTube streams via http://m.youtube.com then you plan to use internet through your web browser. AS you mentioned you are in unlimited plan, I guess that's not a problem. Why vodafone is to put this type of bar is to stop using you're phone as modem IP.

• Smartphones from blackBerry Storm constantly sends / receives data

  My 9530 storm do not stop to show up and down arrows for data returning/send/receive for hours at a time. They Flash on and outside, as if searching for data until the phone overheating and or completely drains the battery. I deleted the applications that use the GPS or update my sites, but it still happens. Short of wiping the phone and reconstruction does anyone have suggestions?

  You should consider reinstalling or updating the operating system of your BlackBerry phone.

• Smartphones from blackBerry Storm 2 - where is the button "0" on the keypad to the format landscape?

  Just got a new Storm 2 and can't find the zero ('0') key, when the keyboard is in landscape mode... when the QWERTY keyboard is shifted to alt to display numbers & punctuation, numbered from 1 to 9 keys will appear but only a hidden empty box where the '0' should be.  It seems that the only way to enter a '0' in a message must put the camera in portrait mode, enter the key and then go back to the landscape.  This is just my camera?

  I have not seen this problem, you are on the 9550 model?

  Have you done all that it recharges battery traction and a value of 0 is still missing?

• Smartphones from blackBerry Storm 9530 deletion calls at a time.

  How can I remove the call log all at once instead of one at a time?  I don't want the list of msg with the prior deletion as a button

  said to someone.  The storm seems to only allow a call remove it at once.  Is it still possible?

  It is awkward, but here's what I found.

  1. Send Messages (one, he is indifferent).
  2. BBKey > view folders.
  3. Select "call phone Logs.
  4. Select the message at the top of the page.
  5. BBKey > delete before.

  I'm now theorizing... but given that the automatic call log - expires and deletes, it is likely that including the ability to delete several isn't in the main call log interface. But accessible as above, it can be like any other list of messages.

  Hope that helps!
