I had a break in email service with the small ISP I use in my hometown. Now that it's back up, I want to re-establish my email service on my Curve 8530. When I go to Email Setup, I'm asked to put in my user name and password. I don't have a good answer for either question. I put my email address into the User Name field and click on “Forgot Password?” I get a response that says my password was successfully sent to my smartphone. No message with my password comes in. Please help me get logged in for the purpose of restoring my email function to my BB 8530. Thanks!

I install my SIM card in my new 8320 and can make calls, however, cannot browse internet nor get my e mails.
My celphone provider says that its system allows for only blackberries from their inventory.
Have anyone seen anything like this?
Is there any alternative?

The same holds true for you BES users. If you install Desktop Manger correctly (meaning that you chose the option to use Exchange to redirect your messages). When you plug a new device into your desktop manager it says hey do you want to use this new device as your new phone for BES? click yes and within 5 minutes your phone should start activating on BES. Your done and you don’t have to bug IT to do it for you. please please please stop bugging IT to do it for you…

Hi,
So I’m not switching from a BB to BB. But from an age old Nokia to a swanking shiny new BB 9000.
From what I’ve been told by the Cell providers in my area, this BB which I have been gifted is cracked (unlocked) but not by the provider themselves.
a) Does this make my device unsupported?
b) If I install a new firmware (or OS), will it ‘lock’ my device out again?
I’m basically looking for guidance on how I should move ahead to get myself supported + keep using this nice new cellphone with all the fun activated on it?
Thanks,
Gautam
