I'm one of those weirdos who likes to see things in person before I buy them. Has anyone else noticed the in-store selection for 9650 is dismal? I've tried Verizon stores, Best Buy (nothing...), and even Spring stores. Anyone have any luck at a brick and mortor store or must I do the online thing?
Wondering if any of u have gotten ur verizon 9650? If so have u noticed ur trackpad left side being higher than right? I ask becuz as we all may know the sprint 9650 has that. Doesn't bother me...nor do I think its defect.
Im super siked the the 9650 has arrived and im ready to get rid of the 8330, but with every smartphone of mine i've always had a black silicone smooth skin and a screen protector so if i buy a tour 9630 skin and screen protector will they fit on the bold 9650 right?
My phone is 3 days old and did not have issues until last night. The browser allows me to initally connect ot a webpage, but will not allow me to click on any links. The cursor switches appropriately when just navigating vs. hovering over a link, but the track pad will not regist any "clicks".Has anyone encountered this or know of the fix?
no matter what settings I use on the 9650 "Memory" settings. I cann't get any computer (Windows 7 or XP Pro) to recognize the device as "mass storage device" so I can access the memory card. There is plenty of items on the card, and I can access them fro mthe decive, but the computer won't "find" it. This is with DM 5.0 and 4.7, on windows XP Pro and Windows 7.
I purchased the 9650 bold a few weeks ago. I do not do a lot of texting, but when I do, the texts are pretty long. On my old BB I hit the back arrow key and it saved to draft, (i would often have 4-5 texts in draft before I sent all out) If im not mistaken you cant do this on the new 9650?? Do I need to get an application to assist with this? ANy suggestions? Sorry if this is a rookie question but...Im a rookie when it comes to these phones.
When I upgraded my 9630 to my new bold 9650 I had a 16gb micro sd card in the 9630. I copied all of the files from my card to my computer, put the 16gb card in my 9650 and formatted the card. I then copied all of the files from my computer back to the sd card and put the card back in the 9650. All seems to be ok, I have my pictures etc. When I go to connect my BB 9650 to my computer I get a message on the BB that says: "Content rights do not match this device. Please insert the media card back to the right device." this only happens if I have the memory option set to "Auto enable mass storage mode storage set to NO" Any ideas? Thank You
Is anyone else having trouble using the "Vibrate in Holster" setting? My 8330 would automatically switch to vibrate when I put it in my holster that has the magnetic closure. My 9650 fits in the same holster but doesn't seem to switch to vibrate even though I have that setting chosen under my sounds profiles.
Just wondering if I get a Bold 9650 next week and I back it up with all my apps and settings from my backed up Storm2 9550 file will that happen successfully or should I just reload all apps from scratch?
BTW: I have SocialScope on my Storm2 will it be an easy transfer to my Bold 9650?
Anyone else have this problem? I usually sleep with my Bold in bed with me (who doesn't) lol, and have been waken up many times to a sizzling hot phone. like burning up hot. I put it on the nightstand and seems to cool down. but I always slept with my tour laying next to me in bed, and it never got that hot. Please let me know, or test this theory tonight Just want to make sure it is not a bad phone or battery. thanks for your time.
Not being weird its my alarm clock and i don't have a nightstand on my side of the bed and I sure as heck am not leaving it on the nightstand with my wife's bold. mine needs comfort lol. Also i realize this may have been posted before, but i am more looking for 9650 specific threads. and more charging specific threads as well.
Is the keyboard on the 9650 exactly the same as the 9630? Or is it the same as the keyboard on the 9700? The keyboard on the 9700 is much nicer in my opinion to that of the 9630 as its a little wider it seems and keys seem a touch bigger.
Since my contract is up on Sunday (for me and my mom anyways, my dads isn't until october, so they are making us pay the early termination fee or go without a phone for 3 months, oh and this is Verizon i'm talking about, but you probably could've guessed that) and I am thinking about either getting a bold 9650 or curve 8530 for Sprint, since Verizon makes you add $30 onto each blackberry(crooks). But I was looking at the features and I would like the Bold but for some reason the cheapest I can find it is $99, while the Bold for Verizon I can find for free. My question is, is the Bold a lot better, enough to spend 100 dollars instead of 50? and why is it that I can find the Verizon bold for free but not for Sprint?
I am going to switch to Sprint, coming from AT&T (iPhone 3G) and I'm currently looking to buy a BlackBerry. I will mostly use it for BBM and not necesarily for web browsing. Which is best for me, the Curve 8530 which is free or the Bold which costs $150?
I searched but could not find an answer so I apologize if this has been brought up before.I was one of the fortunate group that was able to exchange a defective tour for a brand new in box bold. I was going through the device switch wizard today when I happened to be holding both devices side by side. I noticed that the screen on the bold is significantly more yellow than that of the tour. I have not noticed this issue discussed previously.Do I have a defective unit or is this the standard bold screen? Thanks for any input/info you can give. Sorry for the poor pic below (taken from wife's 8900). Bold on left, tour on right.
I have a new Bold 9900, and have tried for two days to figure out and follow the manual to see if i can set and choose prefered networks, but the screens that the manual say are there do not exist?
I am trying to get into the setup for my Hotmail Account and when I select the option for Internet Mail Account to get into the "settings" it does not move forward. But if I select Enterprise Account it moves on to the next screen...I have reset the blackberry and it still does not allow me to get into The Internet Mail Account!
My iphone reservation at apple is for a full retail phone. Is this correct?The more i think about the more i think i want the full retail phone so my contract isn't extended. let me know if i can actually buy it full retail.
I gave my info to a local Radio Shack rep to call me when she had more info on preorders and while it is in the news everywhere that Radio Shack, Best Buy and ATT are going to be taking orders, this person claims no one is.
She claims she just got out of a meeting with her regional manager who just finished speaking with their corporate team and Apple. No stores are allow to take "PRE ORDERS!" What they are doing is giving out a unique number to each customer generated supposedly by Apple which puts you in a line to get one at that location and determines how many are sent to each location.
Can anyone verify this info? It sounds like BS to me but bottom line she isnt taking preorders!
How can i call the apple retail store? when ever I get to the store's number it puts me over to Apple care and not the store? I need a local person at the store to tell me about stock that they have on hand or set up a one to one appointment, any ideas? I try saying, "HUMAN BEING!" but it always asks me what I'm calling about. I always say, "none of your business," to the automated system. I would never say that to a person. so rude! Is there any way to avoid that second prompt? I just want to get straight to a rep in the store without any prompts. what ever happened to operators answering the phones?
Anybody know whether all AT & t retail stores are getting iphone 4s? Or should I call a few and check. My plan was to just to hop around AT&T stores but I want to know if I can expect a lot of stores to even get iPhones.
I have a Dutch Retail (Netherlands) MZ601 3G 32 GB Xoom. Since a few weeks I have been regulary hitting the "System Updates" option, but it kept telling me, "No update is neccessary".
However, since it was posted here that the ICS update should be available for Dutch Retail, I don't get ANY message anymore when hitting "System Updates". It just says "checking" for a second and then nothing.
Why is my completely perfect stock Xoom not getting its update?
Is it expected that Apple will put the availability checker on apple.com w/ end of day updates on the iphone availability in the retail stores, like they did with the 3G?
I was about to update the Canadian Tire Retail app, but it won't update and restarting the device doesn't help and the "Unable to purchase" message keeps coming up! It says "'Canadian Tire Retail' could not be purchased at this time. Please try again later."
