Support of Adobe Flash blackBerry Smartphones and OS updates

Hello

I think to buy the new BlackBerry Bold 9780, but before, I would like to know if the browser supports Adoble Flash Player or Flash Lite. This is a KEY feature for me before the decision. If flash or flash lite is not yet supported, I would like to know if there is any plan to add this feature to the Bold 9780 in the near future.

Also, I would like to know if there is any statemente on OS update policy. For example, if in six months BlackBerry free BlackBerry OS 6.1, is there any statement where I can determine if I will or will not receive the update?

Thank you in advance, this will be important for me before making a decision.

There has been rumors of BlackBerry phones supporting Flash in the future but RIM is not speculating about what might or might not be on the horizon. It will be released when RIM releases it and that's as far as we know.

Regarding updates to the OS, when an update is available for your phone, you will see the Desktop Manager when you plug in your phone.  You are free to decide if you want to update or not.  Failure to update will not affect your phone with any current apps you can run but can forbid you from using all of the apps released in the future.  Isn't nice to have a choice in life?

Oh, welcome to the support forums!  I have to start saying more often.

  • Plugin Adobe Flash keeps crashing, and or refreshing it or Firefox solves the problem.

    I tried to update Adobe Flash and reload also Firefox but nothing has solved the problem.

    You have already disabled the functionality of the protected mode? This feature has the security benefits, but it seems to have serious compatibility problems on some systems. There is a hidden parameter to disable; I suggest to try it for a day to see if that helps you:

    (A) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (B) in the search above the list box, type or paste the flash and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (C) double-click the preference dom.ipc.plugins.flash.disable - protected mode to change its value from false to true.

    It cannot take effect until all the Flash was discharged for a few minutes, or you close Firefox.

    One of your crash signatures (_SEH_prolog4) reminded me of a thread where a user was very persistent problems with Flash on YouTube if Webroot and LastPass were both installed. It seems that you run Norton, so that the thread is probably not directly relevant.

    Would you consider trying the "Extended Support Release" of Flash version instead of the version 18? Adobe is now updated with security patches, but some recently added features Flash would be absent.

    If you want to try this, you will need to use Adobe uninstaller to remove the current version (link in: Flash Plugin - keep up-to-date and solve problems) and then get version 13.0.0.309 from this page (scroll down about 2/3 of the way):

  • Error of BlackBerryID blackBerry Smartphones and to protect

    I received a notice to upgrade BlackBerry ID.

    I did it.

    Was then reboot needed. Restarts OK.

    NOW I have a updated BlackberryID but disabled BBProtect

    Protect wants latest BBID, but when a window appear to download a new version of BBID the result is "there no new version for BBID' (I have just one last)

    BBM also wants the new version of BBID.

    I tried to reinstal Protect: impossible

    Protect the Web works in all functions: find, sing the ear and send the message to the device.

    What is the solution?

    In the first and the second time I tried 5 steps THAT BBID has been installed (downloaded on Appworld), but in other attempts BBID does download no BBID more.

    "attempts"? I don't understand...

    My company does not help me for the specific App problem to my terminal.

    There is no sound wireless problem or a bug.

    In fact, the one that your provider tells you is wrong. Your carrier is responsible for the delivery of all services on your device, which is BBID to 100%. As a result, they are also 100% responsible for all official support for all services you pay for. Consider... you don't pay them... and they deliver. Only, they (your operator) have access to their systems to verify what is happening. Only they (your operator) have access to the formal escalation chain so that your problem could receive official assistance from BlackBerry. Please see this "sticky" post, and the son to which it connects, for more useful information to guide you as you go:

    I hope that this information will be useful to you.

    If you want yet to try to seek a formal support, then your next step would be a full reload of the OS on your device. If you want to try that, then please conduct and first review the backup process discussed via the link below in my sig auto on this post.

    Once you have a full backup, then the easiest way is to, on a PC (you can't do this on MAC):

    (1) make sure that you have a current backup and your BB complete... you can find the instructions at the link in my auto-sig below.

    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:

  • Adobe flash player unstable and disabled by Firefox

    Adobe Flash plugin stopped working on YouTube and other sites. Firefox claims that flashplayer is "unstable" and therefore disabled. It says I need to update, but the update crashes. Things were fine until that Firefox missed this morning. How does a FIREFOX PROBLEM?

    Hello aregeejay, you have not a firefox problem, but update your flash plugin. Adobe just released a critical patch for a vulnerability in the plugin, which is apparently already exploited in the wild. That's why firefox will block the precarious versions which run by default on Web sites for your protection. https://helpx.Adobe.com/security/products/Flash-Player/apsb14-27.html https://addons.Mozilla.org/Firefox/blocked/p794

  • Volume headset from blackBerry Smartphones and clarity on the curve

    Hi all

    I've been a user of Razr for quite a while and am very close to having bought a BlackBerry Curve of Alltel. Before I do, I really have your contribution to this:

    Because I spend a LOT of time making phone calls and work in a noisy environment, the earphone volume and clarity are VERY important to me. I'm not sure if the curve can give me the benefits of a great smartphone AND a great phone in terms of call quality.

    Can you give me your opinion on the earphone volume and clarity compared to the Razr (I currently use V9) and also if you think that because the tip is located a little further from your mouth against a flip style phone that it might cause problems in a noisey environment. Ive had before cell phones, which were weak in terms of call quality and its REALLY frustrating.

    Thanks again for you input. This will help me make the right decision!

    my best,

    Rick

    of all the greatness that is my BB, the listener and the quality leaves much to be desired.  If the volume is too high, cracking bad.  I use it mainly in the car and have bluetooth through the stereo, so in the car, it is not a problem for me.

  • EDGE of blackBerry Smartphones and now Inernet on TORCH 9800

    Hello

    I really EDGE like this on my phone but when I open a page I have this:

    It is not included as part of your plan current service of navigation via the cellular network. To browse the web, you should use the Wi - FI or contact your service provider to change your service plan.

    I can also use Blackberry messenger and no message can be sent.

    What should I do? I have the blackberry torch 9800 with ATM mobilis Algeria and EDGE runs correctly on mobile?

    OK... Well this is only half of what they should have done; just confirming that you have an account does not solve your problem. Think of it this way... you PAY for ALL your services and ALL your formal support... you should be very angry (with them) that they deliver or you...

  • Director of office of blackBerry Smartphones and Curve 8330

    I just installed Desktop Manager 5.0 for my curve. The installation went well, and after it backs up, the curve works correctly. I wonder, however, if the Desktop Manager saved e-mails, MMS and SMS messages in a file on my desktop that could be retrieved and read later if necessary. I heard this answered both ways so far: Yes it did, and no, it's not. No one knows what is the real answer?

    Hi and welcome to the forums!

    Well, two answers could be correct according to what you were doing. If you performed the backup, and then he did. If you have not run the backup, then it does not. If you performed the backup, then a file with an extension of the RPI could be saved to your PC - search your entire hard drive for *.ipd and see what you find. To make a backup, follow these instructions:
