• BlackBerry Smartphones unlock and free apps...

  Is it possible to get free applications (which are not free). In addition, it is a difficult process to "unlock" my phone? I don't know if it's what it's called.

  I have a Curve 8520. I've been thinking unlock because there are so many things on my phone! I am very happy, but I can't spend all that money on it. And if it was unlocked, I would be able to purchase/get these paid apps free? Or is it just do it because Blackberry App World is separated from my unit?

  And what are the other features that were not there before on an unlocked device? Would you recommend it? Would it be possible to restore my settings by default return alias to an original "locked" phone?

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  The apps are either free are paid. You legal can't get a paid app for free. But then, why worry. There are so many free apps available without its problems. All my apps are free.

  If your device is "locked" to a carrier is quite irrelevant in regards to the apps and features. While the main BB services are provided support, there is little difference. It is possible to have a device locked to company and load the OS from another carrier. It would be beneficial if your carrier existing only supplied OS 4, but you wanted OS 5 (the best you will get on a 8520).

  So unlock the device from your current provider is possible, that it won't earn what you want.

• 'Security software audit' blackBerry smartphones frequently and can not stop it

  I have a Torch 9800 - that I bought second-hand with a full reset. I got all my contacts and details copied by my local orange store.

  I'm totally new to Blackberry, and I find it very frustrating with an action of 'Check' security software often happening on my phone. The screen goes black with the Blackberry logo, and a white line slowly updates. Everything that happens I can't action one of the buttons.

  I went to the Options > Security (no services) state information > Blackberry button > check security software

  It passes through loads of ticks and said passed safety tests. But this action has not prevented frequent checking.

  What I am doing wrong? Or what should I do?

  Well, it's completely different. If your device is second hand, so now you go ahead with the measures of the seller and the buyer steps in the public knowledge base article:

• Messenger of blackBerry Smartphones BB and fees for use on a trip across the world

  I have a BB Curve and will take a trip to Europe (I am the United States).  I have TMobile, and I continue to receive responses from TMobile about the question to know if I charged for the use of BB Messenger while in Europe.  Are there fees for using BB Messenger or is it a free service offered to all BB phones regardless of the telephone operator?

  Thank you!

  This issue has been several responses depending on how YOU will use the data.

  BlackBerry Messenger uses your unlimited dataplan, while you are in the United States. While you're in your home country, you can use BBM to send and receive messages from all worldwide - free - as long as you have the unlimited data plan.

  If you travel abroad, you will need an international data plan and the BBMessenger would then become a part of this plan, IF you get this plan. Otherwise, (a) you not have data in Europe, or (b) you will be charged for the use of international data without an international data plan, and which will cost a lot of money.

  Thus, the follow-up question is... will you have a data Plan International to TMobile on a trip, or what are you plans?

• Contacts blackBerry Smartphones Nokia and Motorola conversion in Blackberry contacts

  I got a deal of my new carrier for two new BlackBerry for the price of a more expensive. So I got a 9700 "BOLD", then my wife receives a Pearl 9100. Now, previously, we used two different phones, she was using a Nokia 3500C (GSM), while I was using a Motorola KRZR K1M CDMA (). I tried port both of our lists of contacts from phone above.

  First, I tried to copy the contacts to my wife in the Nokia SIM card. I then put the SIM card in its new BB, and it would not read the SIM card. I guess that's because BB is locked to a specific carrier. My carrier unlock our phones until we've been with them 3 months, that use me at the moment.

  Then I simply imported contacts into our PC with Nokia Software and then saved your contacts file to *. CSV format. I also did the same thing on my Motorola, with the Motorola software and also recorded one *. CSV file. When I tried to read the two contacts in the Blackberry Desktop Manager, he returned with an error:

  Error has occurred. Error code: 0 x 80040057.

  See the documentation.

  I think it has something to do with some of the fields that exist in a phone but not the other. I would have thought that their Intellisync software would know how to take care of this? It's the exact message even if I don't speak of contacts from the old phone to Motorola or the old Nokia phone.

  Same thing when I try to import the calendar entries too.

  This KB, provides a sample CSV (bottom of the KB, a link)... This might be useful in your quest.

• Setup of blackBerry Smartphone email and BBM number on 9780

  Hi all

  Recently, I noticed that my bbm "n" shortcut did not, all the other shortcuts like memo, calculator, etc. have been working well. I cross checked the "n" key on the message, e-mail etc., which works very well. It was obvious that the key is fine, probably thinking of the device is in need of an upgrade of the OS, I upgraded to 6.0.0.706 to the download site for the India BB software. Since then he has screwed my application of messaging and bbm on the device configuration. The problem started after I configured my device after the upgrade of the OS, without doing something fancy. Now, I am unable to work my e-mail installation or bbm.

  The trickiest part, the E-mail setup application:

  When I work through installation and choose the email Setup icon, ideally it should give me two options. 1. business account and 2.  Internet e-mail account.

  After the upgrade the email set up gives me settings to choose from business accounts, where the option of Internet e-mail account? After a thorough and exhausting, research in the community, I heard people talking about relocation of the configuration of the e-mail application. Done that but still no go. So now, I can't add my e-mail address, ' coz there is no option or how to configure it.

  For bbm:

  I have a return to the top of my contacts, which I've tried to run over and over again, but it brings back me to the original configuration and asks me to enter the display name. Now restore backup should restore my profile/contacts, but it doesn't. On a positive note, my shortcut for bbm works!

  I would also like to bring to your notice that I have a bis plan on my device, active, but after upgrading my app world or native applications do not work on bis but wifi. Strange! Now the question is why would the upgrade of a simple bone cause me so many problems. I upgraded my phone several times since I bought it. This is driving me crazy and crazy, this phone has an excellent reputation and does not mean I am a bit disappointed by his performance or his now making me hurt.

  Please help, I don't want to empty this phone!

• BlackBerry Smartphones Trackpad and keyboard does not.

  Hello. I have a Curve 8520, I got it almost a year ago. Yesterday, an APP ERROR 523 appeared on my screen, and I discovered that an application crashed. So I tried to improve my OS from 4 to 5. He succeeded, but I couldn't scroll press OK. After a couple of hours trying to scroll down, I pressed the OK button. But my trackpad and keyboard does not work well, because when I pressed the home button my BB does not show the home screen, instead, it shows me my directory. Please help me with my problem, suggestions are appreciated.

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  From what you describe, I would recommend a clean OS reload.

  At the top of each forum device, there should be some 'sticky' threads dealing with the level of the OS available for each model. Please use those as a reference as you go along.

  From a PC, you can install any compatible OS package (for example, for your BB model exact number) of a BB via this procedure:

  • http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/BlackBerry-device-software/how-to-reload-your-operating-syste...

  Note Although written to "recharge" and the storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade or recharge any BB device model - depends on the operating system 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 from your PC, no matter what other packages devices OS BB as having more than one installed on the PC can cause 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:

  • KB19915 How to perform a clean reload of the smartphone BlackBerry using BlackBerry Desktop Software application software

  You can also get the BBSAK (BBSAK.ORG) utility and use it to completely erase your BB (the result will be a 507) and then properly reload your operating system.

  Good luck and let us know!

• BlackBerry Smartphones Bluetooth and Caller ID

  Hi all!

  New to the forum and there seems to be a lot of information to absorb around here.  I searched for a while, without success, an answer to the following question:

  Any BlackBerry smartphones (Bold, Tour, Cure, etc.) send two contact person AND number via bluetooth caller ID info or just the phone number?

  I'm playing with a Gigaset One / XLink Bluetooth gateway for home phones and that the number is going on the wireless phone, even if the name is known and displayed on my phone.  The manufacturer said that not all phones will send the name even if it is stored.

  So, I'm trying to understand if the BlackBerry 9000 "BOLD" does not send name, gateway does not pass along or cordless phone is not read it.

  Any help or information relating to the identification of the appellant via bluetooth would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Well, it seems that only the BlackBerry phones send only the number and not the name when it comes to Bluetooth caller ID information.  Even if you have contacts stored in your phone, and it comes up with a name and a number, only the number will be sent to the Bluetooth device.

  I received an email from XLink, indicating as they do know that the MotoRokr and iPhone (no specified people) actually don't send name and number calling info ID via Bluetooth, but BlackBerry does not.  I would check this info before I bet on it if.

  So, if you plan to use a Bluetooth compatible device to read or make the ID information calling pass of your BlackBerry terminal (telephone wireless, hands-free system, etc.) certainly has enough space to hold all of your contacts that you will get only the Caller ID names for numbers stored in the terminal.

  In addition, you do not want to look for one who can read contacts via Bluetooth from your mobile/smartphone specific rather than spending hours entering all contacts by hand.

  My headache started when I bought a Gigaset One / Xlink Cellular Gateway and has not obtained the names of the caller ID on the AT & T wireless phone.  Many cordless phones have only a directory number 50 which is not sufficient.  This phone has replaced by TL92270 of AT & T that indicates it can match and 1500 charge contacts of 4 cell phones (Yes, 6000 in total).  That should be enough... :-)

  If you mean your different built-in emails appearing in mail and separate mail folder then please be informed that this default happenes. BlackBerry smartphone is designed as such if you think this is awkward, can hide Messages folder (press the Alt button-> click-> Menu select hide).

• BlackBerry smartphones download and playback of MP3 files without multimedia link?

  I can't load Windows Media Player 10 on my XP (long story) machine. Is it possible to simply download MP3 and MOV on my Blackberry 8330 files without using Blackberry Media Link s/w on the PC?

• E-mail blackBerry Smartphones Outlook and BB not wireless sync. The BES.

  Hello

  I recently changed from seven years of Windows Mobile to BB. I am on a BES and the changes I make on the prospects to your desktop or Blackberry (Bold) are not synchronization in both directions. It's frustrating. My COMPUTER helpdesk advised me to "clean up" the BB a couple of times and we did it. Also my manager office of BB is not configured for synchronization as by their advisor who they explain everything is wireless.

  It of frustrating and makes me think how it was easy with Windows mobile. Help, please.

  Thank you.

  Your BES admins should work on the issue of synchronization.

  For the issue of the separate boxes of Messages, see this...

  By default, BES email is made only in posts emails BIS icon/App are placed in their own icons, but they are still contained in the main Messages application. This is how it works by default. It is not redundant - rather, think that Messages like the Tote place, with the BIS independent icons being a filter, traction (from message) to them only messages that relate to them... but if you act on an e-mail (read, delete, etc.) in one, the change will be reflected in the other.

  Your BES Admin can push an E-mail BES icon only to your device. This solution is free, but must be conducted at the level of the BES server and will affect all users on the BES server.

  • KB15003 How to create an icon on the BlackBerry smartphone to BlackBerry Enterprise Server messages

  Or you can get the application to empower BES Inbox. This solution costs (per user), but does not require a change at the server level and affects only a single user.

  • http://www.getempower.com/Empower_BES_MailBox.php

  Neither solution would do anything on Messages - will continue to contain what it contains today. All they will do is activate an additional icon on your home screen that is a filter for your BES emails only. You can hide or move the Messages icon/app out of the way, but beware - there are more that just the emails that arrive in Messages... it will come a day when you have a new message indicator and only by digging through Messages that you will be able to find this message.

  Or, if you have the correct device OS version (I know for sure it works on 5.0.0.32 8 of the storm), the device gives you options for what to display in Messages and you can remove BIS email accounts.

  I hope this helps explain how it all works!

  Good luck!
