BB Bold 9700 :: Messenger Either Doesn't Work Or Sent / Receive Messages With Delay
Jul 9, 2010
I received my upgrade on Monday - a shiney new Blackberry Bold 9700. After setting it all up and getting the phone how i liked it, I started to notice problems........
My Blackberry messenger either didn't work or sent & received messages hours after they were actually sent.The internet was painfully slow if it loaded at all.
If I tried to make calls it would rarely work either taking forever to connect or when it did try to connect, I would hear a triple beep repeatedly as though there was a problem.When people tried to call me, they would go straight to my voicemail even though I was not on a call and had full signal.
My network provider immediately agreed to replace the handset and get me a new one out the next day and today I received the new handset. I've come home, tried to make a few calls on the handset before setting it up and all I am getting is an SOS symbol where the signal symbol should be and I am not able to make calls or do anything else.
I tried to restore the backed up file from my last handset and although it restored my numbers & text messages as well as my background image & alarms, it has not restored my programmes that I had installed and it has not restored my email and facebook settings. Am I doing something wrong or do I have another faulty handset?
From 5 days now, I can't use yahoo messenger. I have a Bold 9000 and when I'm sending messenger to computer PC / MAC the person doesn't receive, on other telephones it does. I have friends with other models of blackberry and they have the same problem. Do you have a solution? I delete the application, I update... It's still working yahoo messenger on blackberry or not?
When I try to send a message, it just stays in the message box, and then sometimes just sends randomly, this just started to happen like 20mns ago....I tried a battery pull, phone restart, and a restore file from yesterday, but nothing......
ive got the blue " new blackberry messenger" symol on the top of my phone but i have no pending messages to read - i have deleted all messages, chats etc - the only thing i have done is deleted a contact and ignored them - i tried unignoring all and its still there! have taken the battery out etc but im about to throw it across the room now!
Issue: NOT able to receive any text messages. I can send messages and they are all being delivered. I pulled the battery and re-registered the host routing table. This happened last week, so they replaced the device and SIM in the store. Now it's happening again.Does anyone know what to do? I really don't want to call Tech Support.
Hi just wondering when i receive notifications on facebook my phone doesnt beep to say that i have a notification i have looked in the sound profile settings and changed the facebook setting but still no luck. I recieve emails without no problem phone beeps to say that i have a new email. Is anyone else having this problem with facebook.
for some reason the alarm does not work (properly) it did not sound yesterday at all, I tried it in the evening, same thing. It shows the option to snooze & dismiss, but it does not sound... this morning, I had it set for 7.30, the alarm went off at 7.35 - any ideas what's wrong?
I own a BlackBerry Bold 9700 that I purchased in the US a couple of years ago. When I downloaded sofware version 6 (in Mumbai), the camera stopped working altogether eventually (first videos and later on pictures). I always get a message " Could not start the camera. Close other applications and try opening the camera again."
I just downloaded the suggested update version 6.0 to my Bold 9700. I didn't touch it while it was loading. It took about 20 min or so, via my lap top.Then is showed downloaded update complete.Well, now my BB screen looks like a bunch of little colored crystals and doesn't work at all.
when i receive messages or emails the led flashes red but only for a set amount of time! i didnt check my phone for a while because the LED wasnt flashing, which i thought meant i didnt have any messages or missed calls! i had a couple of missed calls and messages!is there any way of changing it so it flashed until the message is read?
I have just received my new bold 9700 handset. I have set up both my gmail and Hotmail accounts.Unfortunately, I can't seem to receive any mails from my hotmail on my handset even though they do arrive on my hotmail. This is not the case with gmail, which seems to work fine and push the emails to my handset as soon as they arrive. Can any one please help me out here?
I have stopped being able to make and receive calls but my email and bbm still work. I only got the phone a month ago and its the bold 9700. i have rebooted and spoke to my carrier and its not helped. Can make and recieve calls when i use a different phone just not on mine.
I have a New Bold 9700, Software version 5.0.0.405, Carrier AT&T. The "Return Key" Between the Red Telephone end key and the Track Pad, doesn't always work on the first push, sometimes it requires multiple pushes to get it to work.
Example, In the Home screen area, if you hit the home key it lists all your icons, if you hit the Return Key, it works most of the time, but many times it will require either another push or a push and hold to work. I went into the About, Applications, 3rd party apps listing I pushed the return key,, and it required multiple pushes to work-, ( It should return you to your starting point)
I have already done a Battery Pull while the device was on, I thought it got better but, no such luck, same thing again.
I also thought that maybe the button or pad is "Stiff" and just needs a break-in period? I don't know.
My blackberry Bold 9700 keyboard light doesn't work again,if i reboot it will be on,but once it has booted,it goes off again automatically,nd i can't use my phone at night or in a dark place.
i bought the bold 9700 today. As i succesfully connect to my wifi and type in an adress, i get this error "Unable to find the requested server"P.S: i have no data plan yet.
whenever i recieve a bbm message i dont get the little red star on the messages icon anymore, im not 100% sure if i did in the first place but it would be odd if i didnt!? emails its the same case i believe (not 100% sure on that one though)i use the imagining mmmooo theme that is in the top 25 free list... does this have an affect upon this?
So I just recently upgraded from the curve 8310 to the new bold 9700 on att literally two days ago and i love it! But one problem i'am having trouble with sending and receiving text messages. I have called att customer care numerous times and powered cycled my phone as many times as I can count but still nothing, I have also checked to see if the "service center" number is correct and it is, I still have no clue what it could be. When i send an sms text message and scroll up to the message it says "sent" and the date and time but i ask the recipient if he/she has received the text but still nothing.
After the update to OS6 my browser wont works...i get the blue bar in the bottom blocked saying "request in progress".The curious thing that BROWSER WORKS FINE ONLY IF I SELECT 2G CONNECTION... NO WAY WITH 3G.All other apps works perfectly after the upadate to OS6: facebook, windows live messenger, emails push, beweather, google maps, poynt and so on...
I've had my 8520 for quite a while now and only just started trying to use BBM although people don't recieve my requests and I don;t receive theres. I have internet, both WiFi and pay monthly. So I was wondering if I have to set it up somehow?
I got my Blackberry Bold 9700 from AT&T about a month and a half ago, and recently I've been having problems opening texts. It'll say I have a new text and I'll go in my inbox to open it but when I click, it won't let me read it. It'll let me open the ones before it, but not the unread one. Even if I click the the menu button then "open" it still doesn't work.
I just recently bought a 16gb Micro SD memory card online, but it doesn't work. I put it into my phone and it says to format and I format and everything. After formatting is complete, I connect my phone to my computer so I can sync it with my itunes. The problem occurs as soon as it gets done syncing. After it's done syncing and I disconnect my from computer, the "format memory card" message comes up again. If I say no, none of the music comes to my phone. Then I go to option > memory and then it says memory card is not readable. It has to be formatted because it might be corrupted.If I select yes to format it, all the data that I just synced erases and I'm back to the beginning. This happens every single time I do it.
However, one thing I notice was when I stop the syncing halfway through, the memory card works. But if I let it sync all 600 songs (which is about 5-6 gb out of 16), the memory card fails.can anyone help me? Maybe someone had a problem like this and found a solution. Appreciate all the help I receive. BTW, I'm using the Bold 9700 for tmobile.
I updated my Bold 9700 to OS 6.0 bundle 2475 . I'm using my phone connected to a wifi router that worked fine before update but now is unable to communicate.
The connection is ok (I can select my network in the list and the phone is connected) but the "Blackberry" icon doesn't appear on the main screen near the wifi icon and it's impossible to connect the phone to Internet or email.
Using 3G connection all work fine but I'm abroad and normally I use this wifi network on my apartment that works fine (I'm also using an iPhone that works great, it means that the network is ok).
Recently I have updated the OS on my Bold 9700 (version 6.0 bundle 2718 - v6.0.0.615, platform 6.6.0.223).The problem is that the menu button does not work at all when I'm in the e-mail, text, or messages.Also, the emails would not open if I just click on them - I need to hold the trackpad button and then select "Open" in the square window that appears on top.The menu button behavious is the same in all other modes, e.g. camera, browser.
My Blackberry messenger refuses to send messages or receive updates!! I've had my phone for 7 months and have had no problems with it. I haven't changed my contract plan or anything but all of a sudden both BBM and FB stopped working!!I've removed and re-installed facebook and it still won't work. And I dunno what to do about the BlackBerry messenger!
I'm having two issues with texting on my Blackberry Bold 9700.
1-I can't send or receive texts from certain contacts (right now it only seems to be from my boyfriend, we're both on At&t).
2-My text threads lock-up. A new text comes in, but I can't actually open the message. I can open all the previous messages, but any message at the top won't open.
My phone dosent recieve texts messages but will recieve calls. A messages comes up everytime i try to go into my messages saying "the aplication messaging has stoppped unepectedly.
