View 11 RepliesHow to get text symbols on my bold?
View 11 Repliesokay so for the past few months whenever I text people, they text back saying they get the message as a bunch of symbols or jibberish. It doesn't happen every time but it happens often. I went to verizon and they told me they couldn't help me and gave me the number to customer support which I have yet to call?
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy bold has this issues in which it only allows me to send 70 characters in a text, the rest is full of random spaces I can't see, and some people end up getting blank texts from me. Randomly, it could be someone on ATT or sprint whatever, what should I do besides send my phone in? Im thinking about doing that since its on warranty for another month, do you recommend another Bold.....or should I get a Curve 8900....or try out a non blackberry device, or see if they have a Bold 9700 in stock?
View 11 Replies View RelatedI'm randomly not hearing the sound for incoming texts, even though everything else (visual notifications) work. I wasn't sure about this until today, when I received 10 texts while the Bold was sitting on my desk in a quiet room. 4 of them made no sound; the other 6 did. All in random order. I have the latest AT&T official released OS. Is this a known issue? I've searched this forum, but I'm not a pro here, and haven't found this specific issue.
View 5 Replies View RelatedJust wondering if you receive a text message and don't check your phone for say 12 hours does it still show as un-read even if you stay on the text message screen. I know it's a weird question but if someone knows that would be awesome. I am more taking about the image at the top of the screen which shows un-read with the little red Astrix.

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhen i receive a txt message i have to manually go to messages which says "no messages".it took me ages to work out that i had to click "options" and "view folder" then select "sms inbox" is there not an easier way of looking at my messages, rather than me having to click on loads of things to finally read them.Surely they should just come up straight away? like most phones.I have only just bought the phone and i am new to blackberrys so i'm just learning how to use everything x

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have the new iphone 4s. Recently I have been talking to other iphone users but the imessage takes a long time and then results in sending a text message. Usually this is fine but now these people are writing me back and saying that my phone is just sending them weird symbols and numbers instead of my intended message. if I turn off imessage, my texts seem to be fine but I would like to be able to use imessage still.
Info:
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1
Is there a way to set my BB 9000 to delete the original text on emails automatically? It's really a hassle to go through the menu to delete the original text every single time...

After downloading and installing the new OS version 5, I seem to have lost all my Notes. Have I lost them all permanently, or are they located elsewhere I have not seen?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI bought my blackberry about 4 months ago and it has been working fine with SIM cards from different countries, until now! My provider is O2, and I lost my SIM card and so I had to get a new one to replace it, and after it has been registered and everything sorted out from the provider's side, I found out I cant make any calls, send texts nor receive calls on my phone! Sim card works fine, as I have tried using it on a different handset. So it is my blackberry. Is it the settings I have to change? I hope I don't have to send it for repair.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've recently performed a device switch from a defective Bold to a replacement bold. I was running 4.6.247 on the old phone. I performed the device switch in DM, then upgraded to OS5 (.411 Swedish). I had to do the browser fix to get the Internet Browser back, but evrything else seems to be working fine except for this odd behavior: I get what appear to be SMS messages like this around the tim where I've recent had voiemail activity:
alpsgaacds02.attwireless.net:5400?f=0&v=420&m=8888 888888&p=&S=I&s=5433&t=8888888888:A:NORCROSSAP46:m s10:client:55195
My phone number has been replaced by 8s. On my old phone, I had visual voicemail enabled, but not on the new phone because I was getting significant and unpredictable delays between the time to voicemail was apparently left and actually receiving an indication of it being left. Annoying. Anyway, has anyone seen this kind of message before?
I upgraded to the newer version and everything seems ok except text messaging. I can send them but when others respond, I don't receive them.

View 2 Replies View RelatedSince Friday I've been unable to hold a phone call for longer than 20 seconds and been unable to send text messages. The call fails every time at exactly 10 or 20 seconds. This applies whether the call is incoming or outgoing. I have tried pulling the battery and that fixes the problem temporarily but it usually returns within about five minutes. I am still able to receive text messages.
Phone Info:
Carrier is Bell Mobility
Blackberry Bold 9000
OS v5.0.0464
I just upgraded to 5.0, which was painful enough in the first place, but I _HATE_ this new feature."the ability to send an SMS text message with the press of the Enter key."This isn't Twitter.I would like to put more than one line in an SMS message.Does it just _look_ like it is sending, or am i overloading the friends of mine that don't have unlimited messaging.What a brain dead feature to invoke with no option to turn it off. "ability" makes it sound optional, but i can't find the option.And I don't want to put emoticons into what should be a text-only messaging system!

View 4 Replies View RelatedWhy can't RIM develop a Bold 9xxx with the body of the Bold 9000 with larger memory, Trackpad, better camera? They've done it with the Tour and Curve. Plus they've got all the parts available already, just need a little engineering to fit the trackpad and everything else. C'mon RIM. We know you can do it. I'm sure you'd sell millions of them.
View 14 Replies View RelatedQuick question. I am starting a new Job and they are getting me a superbasic Perl. I need this for work and so I will be forking some dough out of my pocket to get one of the two following phones: Bold 9000 (I'll pay 100$ Canadian, not Us) Curve 8530 (pay 24.99$ Canadian). I am very used to the Iphone and HTC Touch Pro 2 (not trying to start a flaming/argument/anything else , its just what i'm used to). I am very used to browsing with the other phones and I have heard that BB phones are not up to par, so my expectations will be low. Out of the two phones however, does one perform better than the other (Curve 8530 vs Bold 9000)? Out of the two phones, which one do you recommend overall. I have read that the Bold 9000 even though it is older, it still outperforms the 8530...
View 5 Replies View RelatedI dropped my BlackBerry Bold 9000 on the weekend and damaged the LCD screen. The device still works, but two thirds of the LCD is now white and there's what looks like an inkblot on the left side of the screen. I'd like to try to fix it, but don't really want to shell out a lot of $ to do so --- I'm a month away from upgrading.Does anyone have any suggestions, or perhaps a dead BlackBerry with a working screen that you're willing to part with? A DIY repair -- this is out of warranty anyway -- looks straightforward, but I'm not sure I want to spend the $100 or so for a new OEM part to replace the LCD screen.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just got a refurbished Bold after dropping my original one too many times...Now whenever I get an email on my Yahoo! account, I also get a text message from some random number with "Mobile EmailOZMAIL ########" in it, and I have no idea why.
Current OS is 4.6.0.304, I'm on AT&T.
The top row of my keyboard has fine scratches on it, is there anyway of polishing these out?

View 5 Replies View RelatedA few days ago I pulled my phone out of the holster and It was really hot and when i looked at it i realized it was off, and wouldnt turn back on. just a red light comes on like normal upon a battery pull but after it turns off the red light comes back on again once more then stays off for good. unless i plug it in then it comes on and goes off all the time. I got it powered back up yesterday but then it did it again. Today I plugged it in and I saw a picture of a battery come up on the screen showing it as empty, i was hoping that meant it might charge up. but no such luck. My main objective is just to get the phone up long enough to back up the info on the phone.
