Strange display issues on my "BOLD" blackBerry Smartphones

Hi sorry to speak to you through a response. I am dyslexic and new web pages take a week or two to understand. This single answer took me half an hour both and so well forgive me to be short and precise. I left my phone at a house party, I attended a couple of days. I went last night and the screen started to go a little bit weird. I managed to text and bbm a cople of people before it went completely, but the screen is black when I put it at the start and slowly turns white with small red/pink stripes. I can hear texts and BBM which crosses so the phone should be ok? anyway I have to apologize to bring my own problem to you through someone else. I don't know if someone has used my phone to go on some horrible websites that I don't want to think or the phone had fallen from above, maybe somethings down the screen? do you know what ican do or maybe I just need to get a new phone do not know what to do. Thank you for your help and sorry again, but will this web page later.

We can get this post moved to its own thread in the appropriate box.

It looks like your screen may be damaged or even have been in a wet or moist environment.

*******************

If it's the humidity:

This looks like what I've seen several times on a device with moisture damage.
Even sitting on a countertop bath during a hot steamy shower or bath can cause problems with keyboard and trackball up to this JUST-withered. Really, it is more common than you think.
1 the battery immediately! Do not turn on your BlackBerry device.
2. allow the device to dry in a warm, dry place for 3 to 5 days * (see below)
3. DO NOT "check it every day" by placing the battery in. Leave what would to dry completely. It takes time. Replacing the battery to check it can damage only (humidity + power = disaster).
4. If the unit is hot after the drying period, let it cool to room temperature before placing the battery in the.

Suggestions on your BlackBerry in a warm dry place (open, with battery):
* Place the BB in a container of rice uncooked dry, and then you can also place it in one of the locations mentioned below.
* On top of any heat dry emitting electronic components: TV or CRT, LCD, TV cable box / Satellite or plasma monitor
* On the dashboard of your car on a day sunny

  • How to increase memory Application of BlackBerry Bold BlackBerry Smartphones?

    Can someone please let me know as how can I increase the "Application memory" my camera 9000 (Bold) BlackBerry?

    Whenever I install a new app he consumes the memory of the application from my device. Can I install the new application on the device memory which can be expanded, I think.

    Thank you

    Arnesh Kumar

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    There are three types of potential memory on a BB: 1) application memory, the device memory) 2 and 3) Media/SD memory card

    Application memory - it is the most important; It is protected (not available to the user), dedicated and (fixed size) space as the destination for the installation of applications (more a few storage applications, overhead and other costs). You can't touch AppMemory. You cannot improve the maximum AppMemory that your BB has. It is what it is. Applications can install only here... There is no other choice.

    The device memory - it is space on your BB you can touch these files, images, media, etc. In general, it is not very big, but it is available.

    Memory card SD/Media - is what it says... your SD card to store files, media, photos, etc.. It can be as large as your BB OS can support... see this KB:

    • KB05461 Sizes of card MicroSD taken in charge by the BlackBerry device software

    On some devices/OS levels, you can see 'Free file' (Options > status), I think this is equivalent to AppMemory. You can see on other devices, all the memory usage levels three (Options > memory). Here are some tips to use:

    • KB02843 What is the function of low memory manager on the BlackBerry smartphone
    • KB14320 How to maximize space and power battery life on the BlackBerry smartphone
    • KB14213 Call logs, SMS text and email messages are deleted from the BlackBerry smartphone

    Finally, it is always important to correctly close applications when you are finished with them. Using the back or on the red button won't do that - those leave the app to decide what to do... and some let themselves memory-resident, consumes resources on your BB, slowing down the overall performance. On the contrary, to close an application, tap on and select 'Close' or 'Quit'... which force the application to be closed, freeing resources for your new use it consumed. Some applications will always be running (in general - BBMessenger, browser, homescreen, phone and Messages)... but, you should always close them properly - especially the browser... If we leave on a web page, it will not consume only additional resources, but the power of the battery as well.

    In addition, each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, 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. Some have taken to do this on a regular basis as a preventive measure... some as often as once a day. Others got the app QuickPull to automate a simulated Batt Pull.

    Best!

    Good luck!

  • My bb bold blackBerry smartphones get more heated and stops loading

    I have a bb bold 9780 which is about 9 months old... recently I started having this problem with my battery to reach extreme temperatures of 45 c and then sign shows a card that supposed to happen when my battery is fully charged, but gets to 40% and does not load then... I have to put my personal number near the ac to cool up to 29 c to recharge it. even the battery life is very poor... She is barely 4 hours on a full charge... I have 2 batteries... I have a 9000 "BOLD" and I of the 9780 and the two we live the same problems...

    Thanxx in advance

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    It is possible that your battery or BB has encountered a problem... to test, this sequence is necessary:

    1. Get a known good and already fully charged 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.

    What you describe, it is likely that your BB, which is the root of the problem... to test, I recommend that you try to start safe mode:

    • KB17877 How to start a smartphone BlackBerry in Mode safe

    It will take several attempts to get the combination of keys ESC (press/release/hold) OK, so be patient. When properly in Safe Mode, see what happens.

    If the behavior continues, then well... think what happened just before this behavior started? A new application? An update? A theme? Something else? Think carefully that the slightest change can be causal... and try to undo all that was.

    But if the behavior continues mode without failure, you may need to consider more drastic measures - WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload and the process of reloading OS 'skeleton '. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup of your PC... Please see the Backup link in my sig auto on this post for instructions.

    You may also use these tips:

    It is also possible that your BB has a problem at the level of the material which is the cause... and, of course, the internet remote diagnosis and operating system/software recommendations will be nothing if this is the case.

    Hello Drgnh

    Welcome to http://supportforums.blackberry.com/

    The JVM 102 error occurs when one or more files COD, either from an application or the operating system itself, are damaged as a result an immediate stop of all processes in the BlackBerry Smartphone is generated, preventing the loading of the operating system boot sequence.

    The BlackBerry software should update the phone.

    Search and download your OS and everything above applies

    By sdgardne 

     

    However, here's what I propose...

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

    (1) make sure you have a current backup and your BB complete... you can find complete instructions via the link in my sig auto below. (It's probably debatable given the errors you have... it is likely that your data are already parts of your device, which means that you must now rely on a backup you took before that happened.)

    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 can also try the "skeleton OS Reload procedure" in an attempt to circumscribe the precise causal element:

    1. Load your OS "bare bones"... If everything is optional, do not install it.
    2. If the behavior is immediately, then try another OS with step 1
    3. If the behavior does not immediately, then run for as long as necessary to make you to be sure that the behavior will not occur.
    4. Add one more thing - no matter how tempting, one.
    5. If the behavior does not immediately present, and then runs for long enough to be sure he won't have the same problem
    6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are responsible or the behavior presents

    When the behavior shows up, you know the culprit... the last thing you have loaded.

    If the behavior doesn't re-present, then you know that step 1 or 2 cured it.

    If the behavior has anything, then you have probably a problem of material level for which no amount of OS or software can heal.

    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:

  • Problems syncing with my Mac and my "BOLD" blackBerry Smartphones

    Help! I'm new to Blackberry and tried to synchronize my 9000 "BOLD" on my Mac (Entourage). My computer does not even recognize my device. I read a lot of posts in this BB site, the PocketMac site and Apple's site, but there is no definitive solution to this problem.

    I installed the latest version of the PocketMac and have also installed the recommended update. When I plug the USB cable from my phone to my computer, it tries to sync but I get this error:

    [04:50:26.621] unable to connect to BlackBerry (error 1); jump.

    Can someone tell how to fix this?

    Hello richchin,

    This error almost always means that PocketMac struggled to find the device for one reason or another. I have included an article that should be very helpful in this work.  My experience is that uninstalling and reinstalling PocketMac, followed by deleting .kext files (as described in the article) and then the installation of the update of the driver will give the best results for you.  Please also restart the computer when you are prompted, and then at the end of the process before trying to synchronize.

    I have a Blackberry Bold 9800.

    When I click the icon internet or google, my phone hangs. This just started happening today. I tried to restart it and its fine at first and I can access all other icons on it, but as soon as I try to go on internet, I can't go on no matter what.

    Please help as I can't afford a new phone

    Thank you xx

    It is a problem that can happen to any BlackBerry where the camera gets stuck and the screen is frozen. There are two ways to solve this problem. You can reset soft of your Blackberry by pressing the keys Alt + Cap + delete set.

    If this technique does not resolve the problem, you can perform the reset. Find the reset button on the back of the device (which can be down, under the cover of the battery) and press the button using a PIN etc. You lose all the data using one of these methods. If both fail, then try a security wipe! Or you have installed something new on your cell phone that she began to freeze right after? Could be running in the back ground? Keep, hold that the blackberry button will let you know what works in the background! "Hope this helps!

  • Issue of BB big blackBerry Smartphones! Information is automatically deleted and phone is loading & all the freezing time.

    Hi all!

    Recently, I unlocked my blackberry torch 9800 and start using a Korean SIM. The name of the carrier is Olleh. As soon as the phone loaded with Korean sim card I expect a lot of problems with my phone. The black timer icon appears whenever I try to use the phone to do anything pictures/SMS/calls etc. This makes the use of any application, that really need me a lot of time, and more that the phone is slow.  It's as if the phone is blocked and it is always busy, which makes the battery last less than 2 hours. Then begins the most serious problem. Because of what I described, I run very often of the battery. When I load again the phone and turn it on, all the activity that I did the last time is deleted. This means that the history of calls, texts, contacts, memos and others disappear whenever I have run out of battery. Since I have this problem (about 2 weeks) I was not able to store contacts, record memos, set reminders etc.

    I read that there are no viruses for blackberry. I don't have many applications, so I don't think that it is a memory problem. My only guess, is that something in the configuration has changed when I unlocked the phone or put the card sim Korean. I looked in all the menus (options, configuration, etc) to see if something was wrong and that he could not solve the problem.

    I appreciate your advice and suggestions to solve this problem.

    Thank you.

    Try a battery pull if you please, with the BlackBerry device powered on, remove the battery 15 seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot the device. This will clear all hide as restarting a PC. Then try again and see if the problem persists.

    On device, go to Options, device, application management is a great way to see what your applications with your use of the CPU on Smartphone. Simply drag bar greater than CPU and see what happens. Also touch the CPU menu to see other time variables. I discovered that an application has been eroding CPU cycles on my own

    Disable Compression on the memory card? go to Options, device, storage

    using a custom theme? Try it for a day that factory by default to avoid your theme

    remember the ESC key to close most applications, with the exception of GPS and some chat clients. other applications must use the menu and then exit or close. The key furthest to the right is a key to the House and does not close on its own apps, but will put an end to the calls.

  • Wi - fi question "BOLD" blackBerry Smartphones

    Just a few (probably stupid) questions that I hope someone can answer.  I have a new "BOLD" on At & t and it connected to my home network.  Y at - it no confirmation that I am connected to my network domestic (or any wi - fi network)?  Has the icon wi - fi on the home screen never changes color?  When I go to 'Manage connections' I checked the wi - fi option, but there are no green tick on the right, should there be?  If my device has access to the network and wi - fi and I opened the "browser" it always opens the Media Net page.  When I go into options > browser configuration and try to change the home page, it doesn't let me, is anyway around that?  If I open the browser how can I easily choose to use wi - fi instead of the corporate network network?  I know that I can open and then go to "bookmarks" and then choose "wi - fi hotspot connection" to use wi - fi, but it seems that there is an easier option.  In any case, I think that it covers.  Any idea is appreciated.

    Very well.  I solved my problem.  I returned books service, duh, and it worked.  I originally had a curve (8310) and use the "peripheral switch" Wizard and assumed that it was a problem with respect the browser and Wi - fi issues that I had created.

  • Issue of identity of Blackberry Smartphones blackBerry 8900 Curve

    When you try to use the Blackberry app world, I received a message that I need to download a Blackberry ID. I got an option to download on the phone, I started.  Down load began and after about 4 hours has been attached to 17.  I somehow cancel and return to the screen of the App Store, a few days later, I tried to get into the App store again and I got the same message, download the code for Blackberry.  When started downloading it immediately came up with a screen showing the Blackberry identity, 100 installation.  It has been 5 days that this screen displays t it download at 100 and I can't erase or go to app world.  How can I delete?

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    There are... many potentially relevant KBs public on it rather than trying to post links to them all here, I rather recommend you go here:

    and research... maybe on 'identity update failed', or something similar. Some of the results imply a policy that blocks, others speak AFN and other configuration items to address, still others recommend to remove the identity application entirely and let it start over fresh.

    The right solution for you depends on many factors... so your review of the relevant KB articles will hopefully result in your conclusion which will work for you.

    Good luck!
