BlackBerry Joe

A while back we ran an article that asked “Do you need help with your Blackberry?” We had a good response to that question and so now we’re going to give you the opportunity to “ask away”!

To get your BlackBerry question answered, just leave it in the comments.

Weekly I will be picking some questions and we’ll address them every Friday. There is no question too big or small. So what are you waiting for? Ask away!

    Will RIM ever make a BlackBerry with a trackball, keypad, and touchscreen? That’d rock…

    Can I download flash player on blackberry 8330

  3. 3 Ronald Laubenstein

    BlackBerry Joe, I have a BB 8310 Curve which my wife transfer four of her own BB games on to my Curve with her BB Desktop Manager. However, I did not want her BB games on my device and I can’t get rid of the unwanted game through the BB’s advanced options menu, nor with my Blackberry Desktop Manager. In contrast, I can delete any other game or programs that I bought and any pre-installed BB games that came with my Curve with no problems. I searched the internet for a solution with no success, perhaps you may have an answer!

    I have the same problem.. I just see “FLASH + codes” on my curve 8330

    Problems With Google: Ever since the last Gmail outage my 8100 has never been the same. I had my telco reload OS 4.5 twice, still Gmail addresses don’t work normally. I isolated the problem to downloading Google Mobile, particularly Google Maps..a download error occurs, the rest of Google Mobile sans Maps installs, but my Gmail addresses go haywire: no notification notices, can’t receive incoming emails on Gmail addresses. HELP!!

    For my biz, I meet new people on the fly and get their contact info. I would like an app that allows me to add that contact, enter a follow up time, and put in notes. Is there an app that will do that and automatically sync info with contacts, calendar (call back alerts), and keep them organized?

  7. 7 Mike

    I got a Curve 8900 from T-Mobile and have it unlocked for use on ATT. Now what… Is there a good answer. I am reading everything from just put in sim, download gereric service books, wipe device, download os delete vendor file. Please help.

    I have a Blackberry Storm 9530, with the most recent updated desktop manager.
    My desktop manager is set up to sync to and from my Microsoft outlook contacts/calender to my phone(from my phone to Microsoft outlook contacs/calender). The problem is when I sync my calendar it doubles my calendar(only) entries on my phone. How do I prevent the double entries of my calendar to my phone?

  9. 9 jc

    I’ve had a memory leak that’s been driving me crazy. Even the RIM folks haven’t been able to figure it out. My calendar records slowly dissapear on the device and then when I go to sync with outlook, it wants to delete them from the computer. PLEASE HELP!

  10. 10 dslaby

    How do you make the Blackberry Storm update the clock/time-zone automatically?

  11. 11 Troy

    Ok, here’s the deal…

    I have a Blackberry Bold through AT&T. I do not subscribe to the “Blackberry” package because it is just too damn expensive. I have it set up like a normal phone, ya know with the unlimited text and pix messaging and our family share plan.

    So, here’s the question…

    Can I connect to my home WIFI for free?? I don’t want to have any data charges, so wouldn’t this work like a normal laptop computer??

    Please reply to mistterius@gmail.com

    Thanx =) This phone rocks!!!

    Blackberry 8330 trying to access satellites using Live Tracker.

  13. 13 MDMcKelvie

    Now that I can import iTunes playlists and album grapics to my Bold, how do stop the backlight from turning off during playback when the unit is plugged in to power? Best I can find is 2:00 minutes. Help!

  14. 14 MDMcKelvie

    OK, my BOLD is all jacked up with great new apps – and now I’ve run out of internal memory. Is there any way to either increase the internal memory, or at least move some of the apps over to my 8GB card?

  15. 15 Cast TROY

    I own the 8310 model BlackBerry… I received an email about upgrading my system from 4.2 to 4.5… Is there a way I can do that from my phone itself?

  16. 16 Xandrex

    what will be the 3G frequencies available for the 9520 device?

    i have my berry blocked with password every 10 minutes, but i would like to know other ways to be as secure as i can with my phone…

    and tips on how to proceed if it ever got stolen (deleting my emails, blocking my account, etc)

  19. 19 Chris Fyvie

    Everything works reasonably well on my first generation blackberry bold except for uploading a photo through Twittberry. It worked when I first downloaded it and now it simply sits there trying to upload the pic and doesn’t time out? Also tried to reinstall Twitberry and still have problems. Any recommendations on the wireless settings to make the 3g connection more stable on the blackberry bold?

  20. 20 Misha

    Hi – I have an 8820. Two questions –

    #1 When I receive a word doc that has tables in it there is no information in the table – I see the headings for the tables, but known of the info I need.

    #2 I use multiple calendars on my Outlook 2007 desktop. Any way to have,in this case, two of them synchro’ed to my 8820?

    Thanks!

    I have a BlackBerry Bold and I would like to know how to turn off the auto-signature on emails and email replies sent from my device?

    I have already logged into the BIS portal where the emails are setup but the signature box on all my accounts are empty – which leaves me puzzled as I don’t know where this signature is coming from.

    Hi,

    I have a Pearl and when I tilt the phone at a certain angle the picture has a brown marble effect over the picture, creating an odd light and dark effect. This is my first BlackBerry. Is this normal or did something happen to my phone that I’m not aware of? Everyone I talk to doesn’t seem to know what causes it, and in turn, how to fix it.

    Thank you for your time.

    Kelly Ann

  23. 23 Leila

    Okay here’s another question…

    *If* you didn’t use the BB Media Manager to convert/transfer video files, what are the best formats and settings to use for a video file so that it is playable on the BlackBerry Bold?

  24. 24 Martin

    Hi

    Can you help me. I have Twiiterberry (v8) installed on my Blackberry (Curve 8300) – all was working fine the a few days ago evrytime I try to retrieve Friends Timelines i get Network request failed. Yet I can retrieve public timelines, direct messaages etc.. all OK. I have reinstalled, reset the filewall and allowed all connections etc.. but still network request failed error. Out of frustration and with reluctance I have now installed Tinytwitter and it works fine. I prefer Twitterberry and more user friendly so hoping you may be able to pint me in rigth direction with fixing this. I’m based in Australia and on the Telstra 3G network and use BES.

    Thanks. Regards Martin

    Is there anyway to download applications to the memory card instead of the device memory?

  26. 26 Jake

    With all of my other cell phones, whenever I’d get a text message, if I didn’t feel the first vibrate, it would do a reminder vibrate again every 5 minutes or so. I have been unable to find any option for this on my Storm. It’s annoying that if I don’t feel the first vibrate while up and moving around, I won’t get the text until I just happen to pull out my phone and look at it.

    I find it hard to believe this functionality doesn’t exist somewhere?

  27. 27 SGS

    I’m going to join the others (MDMcKelvie, John F) here wondering about the new App World. Many of us have already filled our device memory – what do we do??

  28. 28 Herman

    Hi,

    I’ve got 2 questions. First, I’ve accidentally deleted Task icon from my home menu. How can I get it back? I’ve tried uninstalling the app and re-installing it back using Desktop Manager and it still doesn’t show up. Secondly, I cannot delete pictures that are stored in my pictures folders. By the way, I’m using 8900. My friend’s 8900 or 9000 doesn’t seem to have that problem.

    Thks n Rgds,
    Herman.

    Why in the world can’t I access my hotmail account on my 8830? I used to be able to access it with my native browser, but lost the ability after an upgrade (I have 4.5.0.101 now). When Bolt was first released, I was able to retrieve my hotmail emails, but the scrolling drove me nuts. Bolt has now fixed the scrollong issue, but I can no longer get to my hotmail emails.

    What gives? Is it a RIM issue, an MSN issue, or a Verizon issue?

    By the way, I am an enterprise user, so I am not talking about pushing my hotmail emails to my phone.

    Thanks!

    What would be the correct way to enable a WIFI connection?
    So that your web browsing is solely on the WIFI not your 3G connection on a AT&T Blackberry Bold

    I have a BB 9530 Storm, which is connected to my company’s BES. I also have it connected to various personal Email boxes (Hotmail). Since I have owned the original device (I have been through 3), I noticed some strang things going on regarding WORK emails that I have been CC’d on, and others have responded to many times.

    What I experience is when I open up the email as normal, I can see the email for about 3 seconds, and then the body of the email goes completely Blank/White. If I change it from HTML to plain text, nothing happens beyond showing the attachments of pictures that were imbeded in the email. If I select all text, it shows URL links in the email, but no actual text. I can send only myself that email, or foward it on, and I can read it fine.

    It seems to be something with the CC function that is making it hide the body of the email. It is not subject to my phone or just the Storm, because a coworking with a BOLD, form AT&T, is expriencing the same thing. Another employee also has a storm and experiences the same thing. Folks with older Curves (Verizon or AT&T) experience this problem. This only happens with WORK email, and not my personal. Niether our IT staff nor Verizon can figure this out.

    I figure it has something to do the the BES and the latest BB OS 4.7+ release. I don’t know if you have heard about this problem or seen this before, but any help would be great!

    I have Blackberry 8830 World Edition using Verizon Wireless. I am using Blackberry device software v4.2.2.196, but it is so much more you can do if you have v.4.5. Can I upgrade to 4.5? It seems to be supported by Blackberry, but it is supported by Verizon Wireless?

  37. 37 Griffin

    Ernst: you sure can. I have the 8830 with Verizon and I have made the change. Google the version number for the download. If you can’t find it, let me know…I think I still have it.

  38. 38 Hello

    so i downloaded i theme on my computer for my blackberry storm 9530, and i’m wondering how can i transfer that onto my blackberry so i can download the theme for my phone. Also besides tiltris is their any other free games for blackberry and also free themes that i could download, perhaps you know a site?

  39. 39 Gordon

    I have tried everything to get my desktop manager, running on Windows 7 to find the software upgrades to no avail.
    I am still using 4.7.075.
    Do you have any suggestions?

  40. 40 Ernst Oddsund

    Thanks Griffin. Since Verizon does not support 4.5 on 8830, I suppose I should download it from the Blackberry site at http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/devices/#tab_tab_update. No other places, right?

  41. 41 Mohamed

    I am running 4.2 OS on my BB 8100 – i would like to upgrade to os 4.5 and my carrier has no support pages, nor offer upgrades. what would be the implications of downloading the upgrade from a different carrier and upgrading my BB? Can it be done?

  42. 42 Hal

    I have the BlackBerry Storm, and I have my emails set up to save for 6 months. For some reason, I only have e-mail from yesterday and today now. Memory is not an issue, as I barely have anything on my phone. Please help!

  43. 43 Griffin

    Ernst – I did not use the BlackBerry site for the OS update because I wanted a specific version. Since it doesn’t appear as though we can readily exchange emails, try to google 8830uAMEA_PBr4.5.0_rel138_PL3.4.0.7_A4.5.0.101 From what I read, this is the most current stable upgrade for the 8830. I had no trouble downloading and running it (it is a .exe) to upgrade to 4.5.0.101. I’m not sure if you are on BES, but if you are, make sure to install it from your work computer – or else you have to bother those pesky IT guys to get you connected to BES again.

  44. 44 Adrian

    Hi there,

  45. 45 Mr. M

    I work for a small company that does/will not employ the Blackberry Enterprise Server. I was wondering if there is any method or application I can use to securely access our companies cisco vpn solution over cellular signals. From what I’ve read, the built in vpn software only works via WiFi and only with BES.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks!

Then I tried to send it to my email with hopes of opening the picture on my computer to see if it views as black but when I try to do that it says I do not have updates for my windows photo gallery so it can’t open the picture on my computer. Please help me solve both these problems. I viewed a picture I took the other day when it was working to take pics on the phone.

  61. 61 Danny

    I am having a problem with some of my emails sent to my gmail account going to my blackberry storm. It will recieve some of them, but it also seem to take a little while. Is there a way to have it check my gmail faster, and is there something I can do to ensure I get all of my emails?

  62. 62 mike

    can i receive emails on blackberry when i’m outside usa and if so, does it cost a lot?

  63. 63 Griffin

    Ernst – I did see that and, like you, it’s working great! Now if I could just figure out how to access my hotmail account, I will be a happy man…

I have been searching all over the web for a way to do it but have been unsuccessful, any ideas? i have a Blackberry Curve 8310 which has inbuilt GPS so do not neccessarily need internet to run it. Thank you for your time

  81. 81 S

    Mick – Google Maps required internet access when you are using it. It does not store the map data on the device – it downloads the maps from Google’s servers as you view them.

    My BlackBerry Curve 8900 is paired with my macbook and I have successfully transfered songs & pictures both ways, however this is my first time trying to transfer a video onto my macbook. I tried just e-mailing the video, but it is to large for an e-mail (3.9 MB).

    What I have been doing is going into my videos on my BB, selecting the video I want, clicking the menu button, clicking ‘’send using bluetooth”, and selecting my macbook from the list of bluetooth items. immediately, it says ”file transfer – failed to find service”.

    I have my work email and my personal email coming to my Blackberry Curve 8330. My boss changed some setting(s) on the server at work so that when emails are sent from a BB using a work email address that email does not show up in the email on my work computer. Funny thing is the same change happened at the same time to my gmail email. When I send an email from my BB it does not show up in my gmail email. Why did the changes he made to my work email server effect my personal email account? The only connecttion between the two email is that they both come through on my BB. Also, if for some reason my work email stops coming through to my BB, say the work server was down, my gmail email also stops coming through to my BB. Hum??

    Quick question; I have serched the net extensivly looking for an answer to this and it is driving me mad! I have a BlackBerry Bold, I can pair my Bold with my PC via bluetooth for the stereo audio gateway. This works well, however, I would also like the PC to act as a headset gateway. The problem is as soon as I get an incomming call the pc auto answers the phone. I cannot get it to stop, minus disconnecting the headset gateway, which in my opinion defeats the point. I am using Vista64, blackberry desktop 5 and OS 4.6.282. Thanks!

    Hi,

    I have a BB Curve 8900. I inserted a memory card that I used in another phone before I had the BB. Some of the maps with pictures from my card are visible on my BB, but most of the maps seem lost. Same thing with mp3 files.
    Is there a way that I can see all data from the memory card instead of just pieces?

    thanks!

    I want to buy a Blackberry Curve 8900 with T-mobile, but i don’t want to have the Internet on it. I know that it is mandatory to buy the internet when you buy the phone, but can you disconnect the internet, and if it’s possible, how soon can i do that?

  142. 142 Tim Mee

    My company is having me test a BlackBerry 8830 World Edition phone on the Verizon Network. Works MUCH better then the Verizon 6850 HTC phone I had before (yuk). This phone is heads and shoulders above what I have been using. My company also wants me to access a website that we use to get our work for the day. I can get into our Summary screen Ok and I can get into the detail screen BUT when I try to click on a “pulldown” field to select a option that I need to change it won’t work. A friend has a new BlackBerry 9630 Tour and I tried the same application and with his Tour I was able to click on the same “pulldown” field and it works…….any reason why it doesn’t work on the 8830?

    Question number one: I have a blackberry pearl and use it very often in my business travels. Is it possible, in an attempt to save some of the telephone call roaming expenses, to deactivate the actual phone( I.E.= no phone calls in or out) and still be able to retrieve my mail via push mail?

    question number two: Can I use my blackberry pearl ( contract with TIM Italy and bought n Italy) with a prepaid USA or foreign SIM, preserving all phone features including retrieving mail and accessing the web?

    You would be amazingly helpful thanks in advance
