It used to work great, but now the bb maps app can't find any gps (except once in a while it works?!?!?).I've wiped the device, exchanged it, r&r'd the maps app, still no go. Google maps finds my location instantly, but bbmaps does not. I've reset the gps info and it consistently sees 5 - 9 satellites (sees 8 right now), still bbmaps is a no go.
I have owned a Curve 8310, a Bold 9000, and now a Bold 9700. I have never been able to get Maps to work! I am always showing diagonal lines. I am on O2, I am connected to a BES server, other users on my BES can access Maps but I cannot. I know the GPS works as it locates me but the data downloaded always shows 0.0kb and all I have is them annoying diagonal lines.
when i on my gps on Bold 9930 and enter maps, it finds my location. But if i click on find a location, get directions or favourites there is no response. Those features was working fine before. Please what may cause this problem and what can be the solution??
So Im running the latest os with the 9700 with wind mobile. I know that bb maps is installed and have tried countless of "fixes" but my bb maps does not appear? Any Ideas?
I just got my phone yesterday (upgraded from the iPhone...what a waste of money!!!) and I cannot find the integrated map application. All I see is the ATT GPS ap.
I recently got a bold 9700 yet it seems to have no Maps application installed. I've searched for it by going Options>Applications>Add-on and it appears and gives me a choice to delete it should I want to, so I know it's on there. However there is no icon whatsoever to be found on the phone to open it.New to Blackberry phones by about a day so any help appreciated
i have just purchesed a 9700 bold and am having trouble with it already. I manged to update it to latest version, v5.0.0.593 (platform 5.1.0.1470). now im trying to get access to the app store and maps but have not got the icons in my menu. In the blackberry desktop manager its saying that they are installed. I have also tried downloading the app store via my pc and it tells me that it not compatible with my phone?.
I downloaded bbmaps and the download worked but when I wanted to open it it disappeared it isn't in my downloads folder and not even apps. I DiD download it but where is it? Can I do anything to make it appear?
I have problems with upgrading my BB 9700 to new ver. OS6. I've download fresh DM and new OS .723. I've installed everything, turn off internet connection also turn off mass storage in BB, connect BB to computer and run DM, and nothing happened. DM can't find new OS. Vendor file was deleted before I run DM. So I've tried use app loader but app loader cant see OS too!
When I choose right OS by add app, it gives me that the OS is not compatible to my BB. So I download new one, but the problem still appear. I have problem with upgrade os 5 to 6 too. Wiped BB and system can't find new OS. Fortunately DM find the OS by it self in internet (6...668). I need to upgrade it because I have only 1 language in my phone and no apps. I cant load it by app loader because app loader can see it as right to mu BB.
I just got an used Bold 9700. I haven't gotten a data plan yet, but I will be upgrading to one very soon. Anyways, I was playing around with the GPS with the wifi radio turned off, the BB maps was working properly. Any explanations to this? I thought BB maps has to work with a data plan?
Just bought a new Bold 9700. I've run every kind of update possible. BlackBerry Maps IS loaded (v5.0.0). The operating system is the latest. I can see BlackBerry Maps in the add-on applications, yet there's no icon to start the application. The vendor is utterly useless when it comes to helping resolve the issue. The GPS seems to work and gives the correct location data, yet I can't find a means to start the BlackBerry Maps application.
I have a new Blackberry Bold 9700, The Blackberry Maps are? were, or maybe partly missing? I called AT&T Support they transferred me over to advanced support, the woman there catogorically stated there is no compatible version of BB Maps with the 9700, doesn't exist. This Morning I decided to investigate my Application Folder or Inventory on the 9700 and sure enough its there, unless I have a broken brain under 3 rd party applications it says " Blackberry Maps 5..0.0" 7 modules installed and it shows the Update Date, the purchase date I connected to Blackberry Desk Top Manager and upgraded all the software.
Since I've installed Windows 7 Home Premium (32bit), I've been trying to Sync with Microsoft Office 2010, but when I go to set up the sync, it can't find Outlook - only Yahoo.I've tried re-installing DM, which I do have the latest version available on their site, but I still encounter this issue. I'm running version 5.0.0.602 on my 9700.
I am downloading applications from anywhere just as the Blackberry apps, facebook,etc. I can't find them in downloads or applications, & i am sure no hiden files too. What can i do?
On my Clients brand new Blackberry Bold 9700 I can not find the task/memo folders. This bb is on BES and everything else is synced. I have talked to AT&T and they have not idea were it could be. I have also wiped the device clean and restarted the BES setup and that did nothing. Does anyone have any ideas.?
I am new to Blackberry, so I was wondering how do I find out if I need to upgrade the system on my BB 9700 for Tmobile. I can't figure out where to look on my BB 9700 to see what is running now.
I just got my 9700 from Rogers, it came with OS v5.0.0.743 on it. However, I can't find the icons for BB Maps, Application Center, and AppWorld ! I checked in the "Applications" and it says they are installed.
Please can someone tell me how to find my closest BB authorized repair center in Switzerland.I have scratched the top cover of my new phone and would like to replace it without danger of voiding the warranty. Swisscom however, will not repair cosmetic damage and gave me the name of a company in Houston, TX. Obviously, this is not practical.A great phone, but horrible, just plain lousy, that neither RIM nor their provider can provide this information quickly and directly. Very weak considering the extensive business use.
I do not find a way to get the information at what time a SMS message was sent. For example if I don not have any network during several hours, the time at which I receive a SMS message will be the time at which I recover some network... not the time at which the writer sent the SMS message.
Even my Nokia 3410 was able to get this information... Why not my BB 9700? Same concerning the acknowledgement of receipt: I do not see at what time the SMS was received
Completely new to bb and need to set up my work emails, i have got as far as entering my email address and password, then email server and username pops up, i currently receive all my work emails on Outlook, and need to know how i can find my email server and username.
I have been using 9700 since Early Jan 2010 without any issues but since last 2 weeks the battery is just finishing in 6-10 hours . I have checked all applications/ maps and ensured that they are shut. Is this a battery problem ....
Just received an email from RIM about a software upgrade for my 9700 (on ATT) but can't seem to find the update. Anyone else receive a similar email today? I hope it is for BB 6 but then again I should not get my hopes up too high about this email. Anyone?
