Storm BlackBerry Smartphones new

I've had my storm for a little over a month now and have had some problems. When the phone works well, it's amazing, but I feel like I need some answers. I realize that they probably were all answers here already, but I don't have the time/patience to find if all discussions to find... Any help on this would be much appreciated.

#1 I already scratched the screen a bit, as I expected. Cures? Repairs? AIDS?

#2 the storm seems much slow down and/or freeze? Why? Cure?

#3 any means to improve the battery life? It's decent, but still seems short sometimes.

#4 orientation seems sometimes a little confused or risk of stuck and the screen doesn't flip.

#5 if it goes dead it takes forever to load up and it shuts down the antenna?

#6 the program computer-blackberry jams and does not work very well at all.

That's all... Seems like a lot, but really is not. Love the phone, looking for some answers/solutions to the theses of the little hiccup.

I'll try to answer some of your questions.

(1) the scratches on the screen is most likely on the plastic screen protector that came on your phone.  Just remove it and all these scratches will be gone.  Your storm screen is very durable, and some people said you don't need coverage of the protection screen.

(2) if it is slow, you may have other applications running.  Best thing to do is a battery pull and see if things speed up.

(3) the best way to improve the battery life is to turn off Bluetooth when not in use.  Turn off GPS.  Make sure that you are not on the global network and update network 1XEV.

(4) if all goes well they will be able to fix this in the future.

(5) not a good idea to drain your battery to death because that will harm the battery and damage it.  Always load before it affects 20% of life.

(6) do a battery pull.

Good luck and let us know if one of these suggestions helped.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones New sowftware updated for other companies - when?

    Hey everybody,

    Finally, the storm came in my country, and I decided to give him a chance. I must say that the phone is excellent and that he had only a few small problems with the software. The storm came here to Chile with the 4.7.0.122 version and it works really well. However, I see that it is a new version of the software for users of Verizon in the USA, which eliminates many, many bugs from the old software.

    My question is, can I put my storm with this new software? If so, how can I do, as the updated wireless in my phone can't find updates. This update is recommended for non-verizon users?

    Thanks in advance!

  • Blackberry blackBerry Smartphones new user... not so happy with the storm so far

    Recently, I upgraded my LG Storm for the Blackberry Storm, and he received the day after Christmas.  I spent all night on the phone with Verizon customer service trying only why my phone keeps restarting and stopping himself.  This was even after I download Blackberry Desktop and put Manager upgraded to the new software.  Verizon's CS could not understand why this has happened and shipped me another one which is schduled to arrive not later than Tuesday.  Im a bit annoyed because I originally for the curve but I knew that the curve had been out for a while and I wanted to not Verizon to go out with the curve of new and improved (8900) because I would not like that... lol... and I got the storm to an as much (149.00) I could not beat this price.  When the phone has not been rebooted itself with that I managed to play it a little bit and it is really easy to use outside the switching of the letters and numbers when text mode n landscape.  Bus, aside from that, the email and myspace for mobile installation was child's play.  I hope the next I get works or well I will return it for the curve.  If anyone has heard or have lived this restart/stop function let me know...

    sincerely for the time being not happy with user of storm

    You do not have to have an account or access to the BIS server - but if you do, you can do things like send your service books or the program installation/change on your BB email accounts without having to call your service provider (i.e. Verizon).  Account e-mail setup/changes can be done form the device but I don't know a way to return the service form books the unit itself - I think that you are only option are access via the BIS site I've provided or call the technical support of your provider.

  • Problems with my Blackberry Storm blackBerry Smartphones

    I just bought a new Blackberry Storm Verizon about a week and a half. I really wanted to get one when they came out first, but a lot of apps from third party that I used all the time on my Motorola Q were not available for the storm. After waiting this long I decided to go there and get one anyway and test it. Much, I love the storm and the concept, Blackberry (storm) and very in deca. I used a Motorola Q for the last 3 years and could do almost everything I needed with it. Why make things too hard and try to be an island intrinsically Blackberry?

    Problems I see with Blackberry and storm:

    1 JAVAScript does not work correctly. I have installation of webcams in my office and at home that runs Javascript and they work perfectly on my Q using the browser Opera Mobile, Skyfire and IE. On my Storm, I tried to search for it a Blackberry, all three modes of emulation, BB, IE and FireFox and none it will display. (Note: I also tried the bolt and Opera Mini, the cushion of numbers does not work in Opera Mini, he types lower case letters).

    2. software remote access connection is another nightmare. I could use on my Q software VNC FREE remote access to my office or home computers. For the storm, the ONLY option I can find is simply a paid for the program.

    3. the third-party apps. There are very, very small number of third-party for the Blackberry Storm applications (and seems to be the Blackberry in general). Is Blackberry so hung up on themselves that they will not be open and allow the sellers to fill the big gaps they left with their product (s).

    4. I can't access to my college email address located on Microsoft Outlook Live via a web browser or email on the BB.

    Here are some of the problems that I have seem to have with the BB. Too bad I don't like Windows, I have to say it works and third party apps are lacking and simply do not work. Apart from all this, I'm really doing my job as a storm for me, because I love the technology involved with him.

    A gleemer of hope, thanks goodness PDANet has finally released a beta for the storm. He was the biggest reason that I would not get a storm originally was to be able to connect my laptop to my smartphone.

    It seems fitting that BB is trying to keep their technology wrapped so that no one else can fill in the gaps that they leave, because if it was easy to do, then there will be tons of other apps out there that would work.

    darkcyber, sorry, but it seems that your post was missing in the middle of all the others.  If you go through the other posts, you will actually see that there is a lot of help here and there clearly are a ton of people who use it.

    1. now then, remember that BlackBerry phones are not the same as the Motorola Q (which was running on Windows Mobile, if I remember correctly).  JavaScript works, but you must make sure his tour on and you may need to change some settings other.  I can't remember where I saw it, but someone has posted a message on the use of their Storm for the display of the webcams.  They said something about having to adjust the parameters of port and udp (sorry, I have not myself this configuration and therefore do not know exactly how do).  Use the search option and you might be able to find the post.

    2. Secondly, it is once again a difference between BlackBerry and Windows Mobile software or Palm OS.  Be happy that you have found a program paying to use.

    3. This can be your impression, but believe me, there are apparently struck for BlackBerry - in thousands tons.  Try to check the new BlackBerry App World and for other programs, check BPlay, MobiHand, Handango, and various other app stores.

    4. do you have a BIS account set up?  You must configure a BIS account and set up your College email there.

    I hope that some of these things will answer your questions, or at least points you in the right direction.  In the future, try to use a more descriptive than 'Problems with my Blackberry Storm' title because that will probably draw more people.  And if you get no response, it means one of two things happened - your message is simply missed, or nobody has an answer to your question.  If so, feel free to go back.  Do not react with the message you left as what makes no one want to answer at all (I did because I'm nice and felt bad that the original message had not been addressed, but I know others here who could see this answer and simply walk because of this response).

    The current version of BPS does not support HTML email.  There are other posts that suggest that there is a BPS update in the new year, and which will contain the HTML Help.  But I have yet to see official notice of RIM describing a version or a new service pack.

    The current version of BES supports HTML email.

  • Newbee help storm blackBerry Smartphones

    Hi, in addition to the newer JDE 4.7.0, what else do I need to have a complete development environment? Do I need a server of Blackberry software also? Would appreciate any help of your gurus out there! Thank you!

    And answers to your questions:

    In addition to the new JDE 4.7.0, what else do I need to have a complete development environment? Do I need a server of Blackberry software also?

    If you compile your application in JDE 4.7.0 this will only work on Blackberry Storm devices. Because only these devices have device OS v. 4.7.0

    There is a rule, version JDE (equal to the version of the RIM API) to less than or equal to the version of the OS device (can be displayed under Options - all).

    You don't need special software.

    Just JDE (including device Simulator) and MDS Simulator ESS (to simulate the connection feature and internet electronic mail for Device Simulator)

  • Images to transfer from the pc to the storm blackBerry Smartphones

    Hello I am new to the blackberry forum.  I tried to use a search but I don't see anything that relates to my specific problem.  I'm trying to transfer pictures from my pc to my storm.  I tried to take the sd card on the phone and put in on slot sd on my pc, but my pc does not recognize nor detects the card at all.

    Can someone suggest a solution as to how can I transfer photos from my pc to my storm.

    Thank you

    Thank you Craterz, for your help, once I rebooted my pc blackberry icons 2 came. Guess I should have done that before I asked for more help.  In any case, I really appreciate your help.  This problem has been resolved.

    Thanks again

  • BlackBerry Smartphones new - help! put the word on BB doc

    so, I think that Word to Go is all set on my new BlackBerry Storm. It opens. I can't start a document in it even if - is that correct? So, how can I get a document from my computer on the BB? I clicked on save as on the computer, but does not see the BB as a place to record in. I have not yet created my email account, so I have not tried to send an email to myself. (It is another matter, I don't know how to set up unless I get emails I want but not hundreds, but I think I know how to do this)

    I got a little worried because when I opened the Manager and went to the applications thing there was a bunch of stuff checked (I haven't checked) and that he was going to be deleted. My mistake. I guess that's not where to go on Office Manager top of page for a word doc?

    Thank you!!

    What model do you have, and what version of operating system do you use? You can find both in Options | Everything.

    In fact, it must have at least version 4.5, if you have Documents to Go on the device. You buy the paid version of Documents to Go to create files Office on the BlackBerry. With the version supplied with 4.5 OS, you can open and edit documents.

    Once you have your e-mail configuration, you can send the file to your person and on the open BlackBerry and download the file. Or if your device has allowed to mass storage Mode, the BlackBerry will appear as an additional drive letter when it is connected to your computer. So, you can simply drag and drop files to and from the BlackBerry.

  • Storm blackBerry Smartphones to stay connected

    Hey everybody. I'm new, so sorry if I posted this in the wrong category.

    I guess I'll start from the beginning... Yesterday my Storm decided to junk on me once more. It rebooted itself at random and displays a screen saying "the catastrophic Assertion failure". I tried everything without success. Finally, I managed to wipe completely and re - install the operating system. It was good for about 10 minutes.

    From now on, it lights up, and if I connect it to my computer, all that happens is the red light (without blinking, stays right on) and it will start the connection / disconnection. The phone itself won't even turn. And I tried to recharge it for 9 hours now. I tried every tip and the thing I can find on these forums. The main problem is that it won't stay in touch long enough to do anything. I can't even wipe it again with the program JL (whatever it is called).

    I've been reading around and see a lot of people said that in Device Manager, the blackberry comes in one of the USB root Hubs when they hang it up. Mine however appears in its own category under Blackberry, with a Blackberry device labeled sub-category.

    I don't know if this is the problem and the reason why it will not stay connected.

    It's the only thing I can think of, so if anyone has a solution or even another reason which is why this is happenning, I'd be happy to hear your ideas! I hope to return on jobs calls in the next few days so this phone is a must for me

    Oh and if it is useful at all, I have the latest version of the Desktop Manager, and last night before it crashed ten minutes later, I installed the latest OS. I use windows vista

    Thank you!

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    There are a few things to try, but honestly, I don't hold much hope. I can't find reference to this specific error message, but it sounds not well at all... a sign of hardware failure in my humble OPINION, for which no corrective software can help. If you are really needing to work, I recommend the direction directly to your store of formal support wireless and likely replacement service provider.

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones New User: Questions about the internal clock synchronization, software updated

    Hellko Forum.

    For two weeks, I use a Blackberry Bold 9900 with OS7.1 and I am very satisfied with the device.

    But there are some questions for which I have found no solution:

    (*) Looking back at my old Siemens S10D or SK65, they had an option to synchronize the internal clock with time of the GSM network information. Will there be a similar option in the Bold 9900? What I found was an option in the date and time settings. But when I put "Government aktualisieren" (setting the time) on 'automatic' then time switches to October 5, 2013, 12:20 and nothing happens. Is it possible to connect to an NTP server? If so, where to enter the address?

    (*) On this Web page http://de.blackberry.com/software/smartphones/update/blackberry7-os.html?LID=de:bb:support:update - of... Describes how to upgrade the software of the smartphone "over the air". But I can't find this option. Where the developer has hidden this feature?

    Thanks a lot for the answers in advance

    Best regards
