BlackBerry Curve 8520: Ahead of the Curve

Why doesn’t it have GPS, almost every smartphone has GPS these days, even the 8310 which it replaces?

It’s a nice looking device but why no flash? why no GPS? I know it’s entry-level but even the pearls had a flash & GPS (some of them at least). I definitely like the fact that this device is better encased (convenience keys and trackpad) but people aren;t going to be giving up their Bold’s for this one.

Hi Dave, Kylo,
RIM offers a variety of BlackBerry models, each with a different mix of features. For those people looking for a BlackBerry smartphone that comes with built-in GPS, the BlackBerry Curve 8900 would be an excellent choice.

Being an original Curve user, I can saythis vesion looking intreging although I have to see the track pads in action since I’m pretty fast with the ball. WI Fi sounds great- better than 3G! What really would have bee cool is to add a touch screen to the unit, live video and vpn capability. I really nee a phone that I can access my surveilance cameras remotely. haven’t found a good platform yet.

The trackpad looks interesting, even though it’s missing a few features like GPS it looks like a great entry level or first time Blackberry for people.

Well, I think I might be getting a blackberry. I love to text, and I do have to go to school. Some people think blackberries are a little much for a teen as myself. I just want a phone that is proficient in texting, keeping track of daily events or special occasions, so that I won’t miss anything. Should I get the blackberry 8520 curve?

I have just got the 8520, and man, what I an awesome phone! Who cares about GPS, I have one, so why would I need another? The phone works like a dream and is much easier to use than I expected, baring in mind that this is my first BB. Well done guys and thank you!!!

Hello bbgirl,
If the option for personal email is not listed when you try to setup email then you may not be provisioned properly for data services. You can try setting up the account using the following link from a PC http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/blackberry101/setup.jsp#tab_tab_email
If you are unable to setup the account using the above link you are going to want to call your service provider and verify that you data plan includes personal email.

You can do this by selecting the Profiles icon on your BlackBerry smartphone. In here you should be able to select a Loud or Phone only profile that will play a ringtone for incoming calls.

Annu, Pankaj:
Keep the great products coming. I'm on my fourth generation bb since I started using one in 2002 – just got a Bold 9700 – terrific device, even though the keyboard does slow me down compared to the 8310. Anyways, I travel a great deal and wanted to highlight an “ownership” factor that warrants your team's consideration. I noted that with the new gen of devices you have switched to micro usb and higher amperage on the chargers. In one fell swoop, I found all of my car, travel, and base chargers all became obsolete. A stable standard approach based on USB would be very convenient and economical for those of us trying to simplify the “accessories and infrastructure” we road warriors have to tag along. In fact a single USB approach to charging the device and the headset is the best way to go. (Unfortunately headsets are still rated at .5 amp. so I need to carry a different unit). BB used to have chargers that you plugged the cable into. Can we go back to that and make them variable amperage so we can charge different headsets on the same unit? A clever charger would be a great addon to a great product.

I am having problem with my trackpad… its just stop freezes sometimes and its pretty annoying… i need help.

Hi,

I would recommend performing a security wipe of the BlackBerry smartphone as described in the article below.

Should the blackberry curve 8520 be fully charged before setting up? I get to the first welcome screen, click continue, and it freezes, shuts down, then starts back up and repeats the process. Could this be because it needs to be fully charged? I do have it plugged in, thus charging at the same time.

can i use a higher memory card to my BB8520?

Hi,

You can check out the following knowledge base article on supported media card sizes.

Thanks

I am very dissapointed. There just no way as far as I know to get the Phone to identify incoming calls. And it seams to be a general problem.

Hi,

Can you pleas specify what you are referring to when you say there is no way to get the Phone to identify incoming calls?

Thank you

Hi again, I have the 4gb Mcard already which ive been using on from my nokia e71, but somehow it makes my nokia slower in performance, will that slow my BB as well?

I am having a problem with one of my themes. I paid for it but accidentally placed it in the archives and now cannot retreive it. how might i go about that?

My trackpad suddenly stopped qorking. it isnt moving horizontally or vertically but the click function is working. i just bought the 8520 a month back.
the bb is useless without the trackpad

I bought a Blackberry curce 8520. The phone does not display the number of the person dialling and does not identify the people on my contact list.

I browsed the internet and found several suggested solutions, but none of them solved my problem.

For example: I changed the number of characters to 9 as is the standard for South Africa. I changed the country code to +27 and removed the “+” from the numbers in my contact list. I downloaded a installer program that was supposed to solve the problem, but the program was not compatible to the software on my phone.

I hope you can solve my problem as it is very important for me to know when one of my colleagues or family members are calling and I was very excited to get a Blackberry phone.

Hi, i am having a problem with my sms messaging.

Before it used to show the last message received from the contact once i click the reply button, but now for some reason it does not show up anymore?

It has been doing this for not all but a lot of my contacts.

Hi, i am having a problem with my BB, i am trying to bluetooth from a cellphone to my BB and it keeps saying connecting failed from the cellphone. please help…

i am trying to use my facebook application an it hasn’t worked since i got it a few months ago it just says could not connect because a data service is not available please try again later i have contacted my service provider an they told me to delete it and download it again but i don’t know how to delete it what do you suggest i do?

Any response or recommended solution???

I tried every solution available on the internet with no success. Whenever someone calls the message on screen just reads “unknown caller”. For instance when my children give me a missed call I cannot call them back because i don’t know who the call is from. Any suggestions.

for me bb curve 8520 is an amazing product because of a lot of reasons one of those is the blackberrymessenger that on my country we call it bbpin, so if you get 1 keep it.
and you'll see it's wonderfull!!!

Hi,

Did you check with your wireless service provider to make sure that you subscribe to the caller ID feature on your plan.

Thanks

Go to Menu > Media, Click the menu button and then select “Receive Using Bluetooth”

Hey I did a full wipe of my phone and my trackpad still freezes.

I am having a major problem with SMS messaging!!! I cannot access it at all- when I try to the message comes up “Uncaught exception: java.lang.nullpointerException” then a box that says OK. II AM NOT GETTING ANY HELP FROM SPRINT AND I AM UPSET!

What happened to the FLASH?!!!! I never would have gotten this phone if I knew it didnt have one. I had the old Blackberry Curve which took great photos. Now the camera is worthless! I got suckered!

Yup, same here. It looks like there are a lot of us in the same boat; I did a full wipe and it still won't work. It seems like sometimes a battery pull will fix the problem, but not for very long.

Is there a way to make ping ping or sound on one mail box and make others silent?

just got my new curve, chucked it in my bag and now I find that my mini-usb charger does not work with this type of phone. Very disappointing. I assumed it was the same charge method as other phones and devices – even my bag of power monkey connectors are no good. What kind of connection does the Blackberry have that I am now going to have to lug about. Its a 8520.

i am very fond of the new 8520 i am very satisfied with the new track pad. it is a great phone

Hi

I am using 8520 curve . I need to back up my phone but dont know how to do .

Hello,

In this case we can try to reload the software on the BlackBerry smartphone to make sure it is running the latest version and there are no issues with the OS.

To do this we would need to back up the BlackBerry smartphone. Please open the BlackBerry Desktop Manager and connect your BlackBerry smartphone. Click on the Backup and Restore button and select Back Up. Please note the location where the backup is being saved as we will need to access it later to restore the BlackBerry smartphone.

Once you have backed up your BlackBerry smartphone please follow the link below to complete a clean reload of the BlackBerry smartphone software.

Test before restoring the backup file.

Thank You

Hello,

I would recommend clearing the messages and the SMS messages databases on your BlackBerry smartphone (keep in mind this will delete all of your old messages/sms). Here is a link on how to clear selected databases on the BlackBerry smartphone using the BlackBerry Desktop Manager.

Thank you

Hi,

To change the sound profiles on your BlackBerry smartphone highlight the speaker icon on the home screen (top left corner of the screen) of your BlackBerry smartphone and click the trackpad. Scroll down to Advanced and select it, highlight the active profile and press the menu key and select edit. In this screen open the different email addresses and specify the sound settings that you would like to have, back out and save the changes.

To make sure you are running the latest software from your carrier check out the following website.

Hello teeroy65,

You are correct the BlackBerry 8520 smartphone does not have GPS capabilities.

Thank you

Ohh.. what can i say…..ts the best communicating device on Earth. Dats all…

My BB 8520 has a Bug. If I have a phone number saved in my contacts with the country code with the “+” sign, the caller name does not disply on my incomming or missed calls. If I save it without the Country code, the name displays on the call log but does not display on my SMS messages. I have tried all recommendations given on the online forums and blogs but nothing seems to work. Can you please help. Thx

I have a blackberry curve 8520. A few days ago a 'EN' symbol started to come up in the top right corner which was never there before. Please tell me how to get rid of it?!!

Hello,

I would recommend to wipe the BlackBerry smartphone. Security Wipe as shown here: http://bit.ly/di72gD Test without restoring the back up.

Thank you

Hello,

Make sure you are saving the number exactly as it shows up on the incoming calls.

Thank you

Thanks for your help.

When I do this the name displays on my incoming call but then does not display on my SMS messages. The SMS message format shows the full country code with the “+” sign and number (without the name).

I wish to figure out how to use the blackberry GPS, would that mean you have to buy a bluetooth gps reciever?
And about the maps, does this phone have them and if so how are you able to locate and use them

hi sam0410 i have a solution of ur problem .1st u make a pair of bluetooth .to another person then go to media file n go to option there u see reciving via bluetooth so simply click this optin then u rcv a data easily

Hello,

You will need to get an external GPS receiver as the BlackBerry 8520 smartphone does not come with a GPS receiver. Depending on your wireless service provider you can use BlackBerry Maps software or a software the carrier supplies for navigation.

Thank you.

I totally agree with you i have the same issues && keep getting the same phone replaced its ridiculous i wish i wouldve gotten a different phone. the quality leaves something to be desired

i have a 8520 blackberry and i thought it was the best phone until the track pad stopped working now i cant go on anything!!!! i wouldnt advise anyone to buy this phone, unless you want problems that cant be fixed.

I wish it had a dedicated numeric pad and allow sending a business card

Check with service provider

Go to options > screen/keyboard > select the app > and make ur choice in holster or out, simple

I purchased the Blackberry 8520 5 months ago and I simply love it. It is everything (well nearly everything) I wanted on a mobile phone.
The only let-down is the battery life. Unfortunately it is very poor.
But apart from that, it is an excellent mobile.
Out of 10 I will give it a score of 8, the battery life stops me from giving it a perfect 10.

Please help I am trying to transfer a music file to a blackberry Curve 8520 Smartphone and it is pairing but as soon as i send via bluetooth from Nokia it says connecting and then connection failed?

if this issue is still not resolved then it sounds like you have nuked your blackberry, however there is a way to rescue this…find the app loader for blackberry on PC or laptop
then go into update software, take the battery out of the blackberry, and plug the usb into the phone, not the PC/laptop
when it comes to a screen ‘connect device…’
then plug the usb into PC/laptop, however be quick on clicking next as it will only accept usb connection for a very split second..once done re-insert battery towards end of installation to get it out of the re-boot phase
i hope this has helped…if not youtube nuked blackberry recoveries

Hi there,

I bought a blackberry 8250, 2 days ago. and already it has started playing up.
Firstly i downloadd whats apps to talk to iphone users as well, it worked for a day, but now it doesn't and the message reads
'uncaught exception: application whatsapp (280) is not responding; process termnated. I spoke to the service provider, they told meto treset my handset, so i done so, still no change, i have now deleted it and reinstalled the app 5 times, and still the same problem occurs, what should i do?

Secondly my blackberry messenger has literally gone missing, again i called my service provider where i was told to remove my battery and restart my bb, but stil no change.

Could you help me please, or should I just take it back to the shop. I knew blackberry had veriuos problems but i never thought they would occur rin the first few days of having the phone, its ridiculous.

Hi,

In this case we can try to reload the software on the BlackBerry smartphone to make sure it is running the latest version and there are no issues with the OS.

To do this we would need to back up the BlackBerry smartphone. Please open the BlackBerry Desktop Manager and connect your BlackBerry smartphone. Click on the Backup and Restore button and select Back Up. Please note the location where the backup is being saved as we will need to access it later to restore the BlackBerry smartphone.

Once you have backed up your BlackBerry smartphone please follow the link below to complete a clean reload of the BlackBerry smartphone software.

Link: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB11320

Test before restoring the backup.

Thank you

hello,
i just got the blackberry curve today but my internet isnt going to be activated untill the 12th of july. The company i bought it from told me i would be able to go on my wifi at home but for some reason it wont connect any help?

I see several post relating to track pad freezing. I have searched this problem through a variety of resources and find it to be a VERY common problem with this device.
I have tried the suggested fixes as have most of the others I have read about.
This is clearly a design flaw. My question is : Is RIM going to make this right with its customers? This is my second Blackberry, and even in the face of more powerful apps and better video from the competition, Blackberry is the productivity phone I prefer. I, however will not remain loyal to any company that sweeps a growing problem like this under the rug leaving the customer out in the cold.
Based on the number of cases involving long term and/or permanent track pad freeze up, it is clear to all of us that this is a design flaw. The track pad is great when it actually works. I would hope a company with a reputation such as yours would make this right, and soon. Otherwise I am sure you are about to loose a large chunk of customer base to HTC, or even that gaudy I-Phone,
Tell us something useful about this problem please.
You can contact me at abd2193@yahoo.com

Hi! I have a Blackberry Curve 8530. Everytime I receive a ringtone, I'm given the option to choose the ringtone folder on my own, because it automatically selects the Music folder. How do I permanently change this? This way I wont have to keep pressing the Select Folder Option. Thanks

Hello,

In your case try to go through the following clean application load process: http://bit.ly/cKy9A0 Also make sure you test before restoring any backup.

What wireless providers use the bb curve 8520?

Is there any other way of turning the music volume down on my blackberry 8520 than the side as the down button doesnt work??? Thanks.

how do i use my bb if the track pad is broken????

if i reset my blackberry to its orginial settings(because i think i have a virus) will i lose all my BBM contacts? also if i do infact have a virus is there something i can do to clean it?

I do think it is funny how B;ackberryHelp_Pavel has not confirmed or denied you post. As you have pointed out, this is a design flaw as it happens to a number of users, myself included. I have done the software re-load, taken the phone apart and cleaned it completly to only have the trackpad work for a shor period of time. Mine freezes up at least 10 times a day. I am sure I am not alone when I say that I can't just “afford” to buy a replacement phone, especially since I paid good money for a phone that should work properly. When is RIM going to stand up and take responsibility? I begin to wonder if they just want our money? If there is any resolution to this problem, I would appreciate some notification to peter.beaudette@yahoo.com.

How can i lengthen the ringtone so it rings longer? I want my full ringtone to play but my fone only seems to ring for 10 secs. I have a curve 8520

good day sir.

i just wanna ask, how come i coudnt receive an sms since i change my sim card.

help with this sir!

Hi this phone is awesome. I am stumped on how to restore my phonebook contacts back to my phone that was backed up on my memory card.

hi, my three months old BB's track pad has started behaving the same way as all of you have described above. is it a technical problem with the track pad device or is it something related to software?

There is a lasting fix for the track pad freeze up problem.
You will need some mirror mounting foam tape.
Remove your battery. Cut a small piece of the foam tape just big enough to fit on the metal cover over the track pad. DO NOT remove the paper from the tape. It needs to stick to the metal area, not to your battery. Once you have the foam in place, squeeze the battery back in. I had to use some clear waterproof plastic repair tape (this tape because it is as strong as duct tape and clear) to keep the battery cover in place. It looks like it came out of a donation bin, but it works flawlessly, and has for over a week now.
Good luck everyone.
At this point, short of giving me a free phone upgrade, I don’t think RIM could do enough to get me over this now. Looks like HTC is in my future.

hi,
my trackpad sometime dose not work. what is wrong with it ?

Hi,

Nothing i try works. I have tried talking to both my internet provider and my phone provider and they both keep telling me to talk to the other. HELP Please!!!

I exprienced the same problem yesterday and I removed the battery many times. When I restart it only shows the white screen and trackpad. I've been using this phone for only 5 days!!

I got my phone slightly damp but immediately did a battery pull, then wiped the battery and inside of the phone. The white sticker is still white, saying that my phone is not water damaged yet my keys wont work. It started last night when random letters popped up in sentences. As I typed “The” it would come out “Theuy” this continued so I did a battery pull but as soon as my phone finished loading, I was unable to unlock my phone because I couldn't type in my password. Now I cant even type in “blackberry.” Are there any solutions for this problem?

my blackberry curve has just gone white and i do not know why i have took the battery out and it still come white plz help me i do not know what to do i only had it for over a month

I was looking around on my blackberry curve and i wanted to see how many messages I had received so i clicked on message history and changed it from 1 month too a year, so then I saved the changes and went back too my sms messages they were all gone?

first remove the battery and remove the sim card then push the piece of metal which is behind the trackpad/underneath where the sim is in very hard and all should be fine

i dont know if this is a long term solution but its worked for me for the last 2 days now hope it helps guys

Hi, my gf Blackberry 8520's trackpad freezes from time to time. It will then take sometime for it to be able to function or move again. Why does it happen and how to I solve this problem?

Secondly, my own BB8520 cannot stream videos e.g. from Youtube (I haven't tried streaming on any other site). Is there a setting problem with it or how do I solve that too.

Thirdly, do my BIS include tethering service but how i do actually able to use it to my laptop?

Thanks a lot if you could help me.

Today i was given a new bb curve as they couldn't fix my old one, and i've tried to set up my email again but all that comes up is “Cannot create account: an account already exists for this BlackBerry device” and i dont know the username or password to log in. what can i do?

The phone on my blackberry curve is not working, i am able to send texts, but it wont put through calls or reacive any calls.

I would recommend re formatting the card. Navigate to Options-Memory-press menu key and select format.

Hello,

I would recommend removing the battery to restart the BlackBerry smartphone. Also make sure you are connected to the Wi-Fi network. The Wi-Fi icon has to be solid white color to indicate a proper connection.

Also, earlier today the phone cut out during a phone call and turned itself off, I've not been able to get it back on. I've tried taking the battery out many times and sticking it on the charger but it isn't turning on.

I HAVE A QUESTION…. MY BLACKBERRY CURVE 8520 WATER INDICATORS ARE BLUE. WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
IVE LOOKED ALL OVER BUT I ONLY KNOW ABOUT PINK AND RED. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME! I WOULD APPRICIATE IT ALOT!!!

it means that you have a bb app world update

go to the messages folder – the envelope one with the circle/worldish image thing on it and scroll through – youll have two messages that have a yellow world thing on them – gamers club or browser notifications! open or delete them and itll go away!

I am having the EXACT same problem! The tiniest amount of water – and it's adding a U to all of my vowels when I type “Hellou” and adding an O to my U's “uogly”. SO frustrating. And sometimes it starts to work normally but then the back button or the delete button or the trackpad will freeze. It was such a minimal amount of water how do I fix this??

Hi, ive had my blackberry curve 8520 for a few months and i am using o2, but my internet wont work, it keep saying unable to connect to internet, please try again later, but i did and it still wont work! can you please help me! thanks

My husband's blackberry curve's screen has gone white. He can still receive and make calls to numbers he wants but it's really hard to see what the screen says. Any ideas how we fix this problem??

I think it does that when you hold a key for too long. When you get it on your screen just press your back button and it should disappear. The one that looks like an arrow pointing round a corner next to the middle track button. Hope that works for you

I've had the Curve 8520 for 4 months, and I don't like it at all. It does not keep my e-mail synchronized. If I delete it on the Blackberry, it remains on the desktop and vice versa. The keys are so tiny on the keyboard it is difficult to type…. luckily, I found Dragon NaturallySpeaking has a free app to do e-mail by voice – but it doesn't work for texts. I'd rather have a larger screen and touch screen capability rather than squinting at the little screen and trying to type on the microscopic keyboard.

my touch sensitve navigator doesn”t work

Please help me before I throw my Curve through the window.

It has been occasionally freezing on me for a while now… even when I'm not using it, i go to use it and I can't scroll anywhere. it often happens when I'm trying to text or use the internet. I turn it on and off and that tends to resolve it, or if I leave it for a while sometimes that works. however, today it has frozen completely. i must have taken the battery out 30 times to no avail. it just wont let me do anything, and I have messages to retrieve! I am so frustrated! I keep reading things on the internet about going into “options” and clicking this or that but it literally wont let me do anything!! Any ideas?

Does your BlackBerry have EDGE or 1XEV or is it lower case edge or 1xev?

You might want to talk to your wireless provider to make sure you have the right provisioning in place to use BlackBerry Messenger.

You can do a search for unread mail.

In your messages folder, hit the Menu key then Search. Under Show change it to Unopened only and hit the Menu key again then Search. This should populate any unopened mail for you.

I really like my Blackberry but it says I have wi-fi but the wi-fi picture thing in the corner wont turn blue :S I'm worried that I'm paying extra.

Hi, my son has had a Blakberry Curve for some time but has just given it to me as he has purchased an i-phone. I have been using a pearl on 02 but for some reason which no-one at 02 or carphone warehouse can tell me, the phone will not allow me to make calls with an 02 SIM card in it, however I can send and receive e-mail and access the internet!It just says call failed as soon as I try to dial. Orange and 3 SIM cards work fine as we have tried other peoples but neither my 02 SIM, nor my husbands nor my other sons will work – really bizarre, please help!

Since installing App World I'm prompted to enter a Blackberry ID, I've now created the Blackberry ID and when I try to download apps, I fill in the Blackberry ID and password, but when I click on 'I accept', I'm redirected to the Account Information page (where you can change password, security question and view policy). There are not buttons to click on this page, so I'm stuck on this page and when I go back I have to click on Download again and once again fill in the ID and password and click 'I accept' only to end up on the Account Information page again. How can I get past this page so that I can download apps?

HELP

ive had my curve for just going into 4 months and the trackpad wont work? its ridiculous for paying 170 pound for this? am i going to have to pay more money to get it repaired or can blackberry do something?

My blackberry updated the OS by itself when i didn't want it. how do i restore it to the original OS my blackberry had?

@Ham3 Sounds like an issue with the Profiles database. Try deleting the Profiles database from your BlackBerry and test again. http://bbry.lv/buj0rQ

As a test try switching to another Profile/Tone and see if you have the same issue.

Honestly, I had the same problem. I did the battery pull & synced the phone to my computer, and suddenly it started working again!

I accidentally have hidden 1 of my icons on the menu screen of my blackberry and i don’t know how to get it back ?

i deleted bbm. how do I get it back?

you clearly had a messed up phone and that shouldve been obvious. just becuase yours was like that doesnt mean all the others are because mine is certainly not.

On my 8900 I cant get rid of the bright envelope when I forward a message,so it always looks as if it has not been sent,but it has.Can anyone help. PT.

Hey!

Go to http://www.blackberry.com/messenger to download BlackBerry Messenger.

Hey!

You might have perform a delete prior if you’re unable to delete that message, highlight the date in messages and press the menu key and select delete prior. This will remove all messages, however it will fix your issue.

Hello,
Last week my Blackberry Curve 8520 stopped notifying me new updates from twitter via blackberry app for twitter/my email. I’ve been using this service with no problems for over 6 months & now its stopped. I’ve reinstalled the app 3 times but still no luck. I am on the t-mobile network UK
Please can you help….

How come When I try to make these changes, it doesn’t let me select “advanced” or “set ringtones/alerts”. I dont know if its the trackpads fault, but oddly enough, the trackpad works properly when I use it for other things. Just not this specific selection. Help please?

I just got my blackberry stolen tonight. is there a way I am able to track it?

I have a blackberry curve 8530 and the arrow is missing on email replies. How do I get the arrow to appear? Thanks…Stephanie

i did the update on my blackberry curve 8520. Now i have lost my lock feature and i cannot get the ringtones to work properly. Have pulled battery several times. Does start working again for a bit but then stops ringing or vibrating if you change any of the profile options. how do i fix this?? has there been another update to download to fix these problems?? seems like since the update was downloaded everyone is having problems. FRUSTRATED!!!!!!

What sound profile do you have currently set? If you have Silent or Viberate set, change it to Loud and test.

Hello,

What is the software version you are currently running?

Can I get flash on my blackberry camera ? The photos I take can look really blurry at times.

The BlackBerry 8520 does not have a flash and one can not be installed or downloaded.

You can adjust your picture settings by going to the Camera, hit your Menu key and select Options. Change the picture quality to Superfine to help clear up your photos.

Cheers!

I had an issue with this. Here I had clicked the mute button (on top of the device) and I didn’t know it. Hold it down and see.

How do you find out how many sms messages you have got on a blackberry curve?

Go into Options> Status and press the menu key and select Database sizes. The first number is the number of entries. Scroll down until you find SMS Messages.

Hello Mee4321,

With your BlackBerry connected, if you click on Back Up, what happens? Do you get a screen pop up with a back up in progress? Is your BlackBerry showing as connected?

Back up files are usually stored in your My Documents in a folder called BlackBerry and have the extension .ipd. If you search for these types of files, do you find any?

Thanks.

But when i looked at the battery it was red!! And i know for a fact it was fully charged. Any help guys??? much apreciated!!

Hi Ruby_samuels,

If the Wi-Fi symbol is grey then its indicating that your device is not connected to the Wi-fi network. Try following this article to reconnect it. http://bbry.lv/9jy1kB

Hi Moukarzel,

Have a look at this article on how to transfer files using Bluetooth: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB05409

Hi Min,

Do you have any 3rd party applications on your device? If so try closing out of them when your done using them. If you leave them running they can cause strange things to happen. I have seen applications that are demanding on the device and it will drain the battery while charging. Another thing you can check is to see if the connection to the device is loose for the charging cable.

Hi curlybap,

Hi Bez_BB,

Try backing up your BlackBerry via the Desktop Manager and doing a clean reload of BlackBerry Device Software. Make sure to test for any issues before restoring and data from your backup file. http://bbry.lv/bpv7DT

Hi Hannahlb,

Try transferring all your media files from your media card to your computer using Mass Storage. http://bbry.lv/apP8gQ Then format your media card http://bbry.lv/eqpGSH Then transfer your pictures back to the Media Card and test.

This is my first blackberry and I think it SUCKS!! Out of the blue the thing will just stop working…it is less then a year old and has NEVER been wet. I will NEVER own another one nor suggest it to anyone. From what I can gather there is also no fix to this problem. Its just a crappy product.

Hello Carolynsteward13,

Try doing a clean software reload as shown in http://bbry.lv/cG8oer. Test before restoring any data.

This comment is actually about the Playbook. PLEASE spec an LED backlight display. Saves Energy = longer battery life and Greater Contrast Ratio = Better Viewing/Reading/Multimedia Experience.

Hey Cool-cookiee X,

How can I store my number on BlackBerry Curve 8520 ?

hi, ive had my blackberry few months now, and suddenly the *a* button wont work, its unresponive, ive tried system update, taking the battery in and out and it just wont work, its a key button as well as it helps to lock the phone, and once the phone is locked i cant unlock it.
any ideas why it suddenly stopped working and is unresponsive??
cheers

No GPS – I can’t believe it. Got my new 8520 yesterday and enthusiastically transferred all my contacts etc. Then tried to get some directions only to discover that, unlike my ancient blackberry pearl, the 8520 does not have GPS – unbelievable and very disappointing… its going back.

Hey Ambatsatheesh,
Have a look at this article for assistance transferring files from one BlackBerry to another using Bluetooth: http://bbry.lv/9XciEk

Hey PeaceLoveHappiness,

Have you tried taking out your memory card and putting it back in? Have you been able to test to see if the card can be read in another device? Do you have access to another card to see if that one works in your device, this will let us know if it is a device issue or a card issue. If the card can be read in another device I would suggest copying all the data to your computer then format the card and test again to see if it work.

Let us know how you make out.

I deleted a large number of my email messages, but not all now nothing shows in my messages unless I select search and select specific settings.

I would suggest backing up your BlackBerry data and do a clean software reload as shown in http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB11320

You will need to verify with your wireless provider that you have the correct data services on your BlackBerry.

Do you still have this issue after reinserting your battery and rebooting the PC? If so, have a look at this article for troubleshooting your connectivity with the Desktop Manager. http://bit.ly/f5hM5y

how do i set up my mobile phone with an aol email address

Hey Alanroll71,
Have a look at this article on How to set up email services for the BlackBerry smartphone.
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB03087

The green light is your coverage indicator. You can turn it off under Options -> Screen/Keyboard -> LED Coverage Indictor.

I found it annoying, too. Got enough other lights going off

It’s rubbish. My daughter has had a problem with her trackpad and sent it back only to be told it waterdamaged and they can’t repair it. It hasn’t been anywhere near water. They mentioned a sticker in it but the only sticker she could find was a white. Personally I think it was faulty from the factory, and looking at this forum there are a lot of other people with the same problem with the trackpad. I guess instead they are now trying to blame the customers for their faulty goods. She is very upset.

my blackberry is acting up lately, when i have like 3bars left it just shuts off by itself, the screen goes white and then it wont open again until i recharge it and it shows low battery… why does this keep happening? my phone last like 1 hr then keep shutting off and its getting me annoyed-.-

Hi angrymum,

Did you daughter take her device to one of the original point of sale stores? If so have her call her wireless provider and and let them know about the hardware issues. Then discuss this matter with their warranty department.

Hope this helps.

Hi chinita,

I suggest that you back up your device date then follow this link to do a clean application load: http://bbry.lv/cKy9A0 Be sure to test before restoring any data.
