BB Bold 9700 :: Charging Pod - Harmful To Leave On Dock For Long Periods?
Aug 30, 2010
Is it harmful in anyway to leave the phone on the dock on my desk for long periods of time when fully charged even if I am not watching videos or listening to music?
For about a week my phone has been adding extra periods and spaces when I press the space bar. This has been happening with SMS, MMS and email. I knw about that short-cut (press the space bar twice to enter periods) but its doing that after almost every word. I have changed the sensitivity to the lowest setting possible but it continues to do it, even when i text slow. Not sure as to what I should do.
Just receievd my new 9790 yesterday etc. I have purchased the BB dock for my 9790 but it will not charge my phone from the mains?It shows a symbol of a plug on my phone but will not charge unless it is plugged into the PC ???urely it should charge when you plug the usb lead into the charging plug ??? There is power there as the little white light is on in the dock ?
My bold stopped working a few weeks ago, At first i thought it was the battery, Bought a new battery nothing happened. Next i thought it was the Charger, Bought a new one still nothing happened . Someone told me that the USB port was probably broken, And i can't get it fixed by tmobile cause the bold is a AT&T Phone . So a friend of mine told me to buy a charger dock on Amazon/Ebay , And the Phone will charge i just won't be able to put stuff on my phone through my Computer . Can anyone clarify that if i buy the dock it will work?, Also if it doesnt work at this point what should i do?
Help! I bought a BlackBerry Charging Pod for my 9700, the packaging that came with it says it is for a Tour 9630.
I plugged it in and the power light on the pod lit up but there is no indication on the 9700 that says it is charging when placed in pod and I set the clock to display when charging and that doesn't work when placed in the pod!I bought it from a place called OEM in Brooklyn.
When I tried to connect to magnetic charging dock the Led and the charging symbol starts blinking continuously without getting charged, while it used to be perfect previously, and usb charging is perfectly fine , i even tried with multiple chargers.
I have a Bell Blackberry Bold 9700 and I just switch to Rogers! Would it be *better if I flash the rogers firmware on the phone, or leave it with the bell firmware? The rogers one is .351 and the bell one is .423 ...I guess I was wondering if the rogers would be better since i'm on the Rogers network
I left my BB on my desk at work (GRRRR) and my alarm is set to go off at 6am, I don't get in until 8am.Is my alarm going to be ringing until then or does it time out? I feel so lost without my BB.
I was wondering why it has taken over six hours to charge only one increment of the total 5 bars on my Blackberry? It's still not fully charged. My Windows Mobile device gets a full charge in 1/4th that time. Same with my DSLR camera. Is there something wrong with my battery?
I just got my bold yesterday, Ive been playing with it on and off, charged it to 100 % and installed .423. I unplugged today at 8:42 and had 3G on, sent around 50 or so texts, played about 10 minutes of Nintaii and browsed the web a little, did 2 battery pulls, and listened to Pandora for about 10 minutes.I'm at 80% now, is that normal? And how long does it take for the battery to be fully cycled and set in?
So I have owned a Black Bold 9700 for a while now and about 2 months ago I switched to a White 9700. I would always get at least one day out of my battery in my black 9700. And I was with my white 9700 as well until about 2 weeks ago.I rarely talk on my phone but I am a heavy user with BBM, text and email and a bit with Facebook which I know uses a lot of battery... I have about 90 contacts on BBM and use it constantly everyday -- chatting with 4 to 5 ppl at a time constantly. However, I'm lucky if my battery lasts from 11am until 5pm anymore. I have tried about 3 different batteries and they all have the same issue. I just upgraded my software from .743 to .862 last night.
And I switched over to a brand new OEM battery 2 days ago. I charged my phone overnight and powered it on at 11am and now at 2:14pm I'm sitting at 75% battery life.I don't have many apps on my phone besides Facebook and Weather Eye. The only apps I ever have running everyday are the ones that have to be running constantly (BBM, Phone, Browser, Messages). I rarely even browse the internet and I don't have Bluetooth or Wi-Fi enabled. However, I am always running on 3G.
I know there a feature that i can turn on to save conversation for my bbm.However, before i know this feature(which somehow i didnt enable it), there is this urgent conversation i need to retrieve the entire conversation, as it get cut off when the chat is too long, I havent end the conversation with the person yet, but i need to retrieve the whole entire conversation.

I have a Bold 9930 on Verizon. I am having a problem in that my phone randomly inserts periods into emails and texts. I know that I'm not hitting the space bar twice, nor am I pushing the space bar for too long. It's a completely random thing.
how long does the led stay blinking after you receive a text msg?im askin because i have heard ppl say it blinks forever, until you acknowledge the text, but today i got a text at 6 (i was away from bb) but when i came back there was no led blinking. at 10 i got another text i was with my phone so i looked at it, and saw 2 new msgs.. 1 received at 10, the other received at 6
Just got my first Blackberry 9700 yesterday. First Blackberry for me. Can anyone tell me how I know if the battery is charging? When I plug it in a clock appears with the date and time.
I have a blackberry 9700, it seems to keep restarting everytime i plug my charger into it and now it just displays dead battery for hours whilst the charger is in and does not charge my phone.Also, sometimes when it doesn manage to charge, the battery indicator will be red all the time.
When I plug my phone on the dock to charge it, the led is blinking and the phone is not charging.The charging indicator appears near the battery symbol then goes away, appears again, disappears again,..Is the dock faulty or is it my phone?Quite sure the phone is faulty cause same problem with another dock..
Where can I find some genuine or good looking iPhone 3GS cradle charging dock? I need it for my work office. I went on eBay and I found a bunch of fake replica docks from China/HK. I feel I should avoid it because I don't fakies. If anyone know any stylish looking one or way better than the one from the pics, let me know. I am really interested in purchasing a genuine cradle dock.
so It seems my car dock isn't charging my phone. It was 90% when I left the house remained plugged in on the dock for an hour except for one phone call. I used Navigation for maybe 10 min and it was still at 90% when I got to work. I'm wondering if anyone else is having this problem. still have to test to see if its the charging port in the car that i'm using or not. It might be but the only other one I have in the car I can't use and connect to the car dock because it's too far away
I often park my Droid X in it Motorola Car Dock when I am on a long drive (2 hours) and usually turn on maps, gps, and bluetooth. Battery indicator top right shows lighting bolt thru battery in upper right of home page every time I look and looking at the cigarette lighter end of the cord, I see the red light on. Starting the trip, I verify I am 100% charge but at the end of the trip, I am not fully charged. why am I dot fully charged if on car battery the full time? If I assume my cable is ok and it is really connected full time to the car source, is it possible the usage current can be more than the charge current thus resulting in a never fully charged phone at the end of the trip? Or is this simply an indicator of a bad or intermittent cable?
Did a search but didn't find anything on this...and everyone may already know this but it's new to us!My husband answered the phone while it was still on the charger and we learned that it automatically activates the speakerphone when on the pod and goes back to handset mode when you pick it up.Thought this was kind of cool and wanted to share.
Is it possible to use the charging pod for BB Bold 9700 (as shown in the Crackberry shop) with a BB Bold 9700 which has a silicone skin cover? I am not quite clear how the pod works.
