BB Bold 9700 :: Phone Needs Physical Repairs - Where To Get
Jun 8, 2010
I just got this phone in April, today I dropped it and a nick came out of the top right at the mute button. Rogers tells me that there's nothing they can/will do, except sell me a new phone. Since that's not an option, does anyone know where the phone can get repaired at? Rogers was no help at all.It's a sharp nick out of the plastic at the top, actually sharp to the touch. The screen and everything else is ok.I don't know what to do here, the phone is new and I don't want to spend another $400 to buy it considering I just got it 2 months ago!

Anyone know a good reputable place in metro vancouver that can replace the bezel on my phone?i went to this cellphone store and they ****ed it up horribly and i have to wait up to 2 weeks for new parts to come in because i used mine and the guy who did it broke the one i gave him and i think they took my whole phone apart cause my LCD is crooked and whatnot -_-'so today i took off the broken bezel on my phone and put my old silver one back on but the top cover is really loose (N)

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 have a ROGERS Blackberry torch which i've had for about 5 months now. The phone laggs A LOT, randomly freezes, takes forever to send text's etc. The phoen is unlocked and is being used with BELL. My question is, who can I contact with regards to warranty repairs? Is there a way to contact RIM directly? or do I have to go through one of the providers?

my 8520 curve won't read it's SD card? i know it's definitely not the card as my wife just got a new BB also and it came with a brand new card that can't be read either. Thought i could live with it. but can't. You can't have any music, video content etc. My first blackberry died in a pint of guiness (don't ask), i took the sd card out before the insurance claim and had my fingers crossed that it would have survived the black death, but when my new replacement BB came it couldn't read the card. which i thought was down to the black stuff - initially.However since then i've tried different cards leaving me to believe i may still have the data on the original and that the phone or card reader is cream-crackered?

I've just gotten a Bold 9700 and noticed that even though I have the option to sync the profile pictures of my friends with my contacts profiles on the phone, the pictures for my phone contacts remain blank. The Facebook profiles are linked to my contacts and sometimes will show the Facebook profile picture but after a while the picture reverts to a blank icon again. I've also unselected the option to sync and re-enabled the option to update Blackberry contacts with my Facebook contacts to try and force the pictures to update but no success.
I was thinking that it might also be because of a conflict wiyth other apps trying to update the contact pictures seeing as I originally imported all my contatcs from my Gmail account but I am unable to figure out which other apps, if any, are updating contact pics and thereby turn them off.
Blackberry contacts linked to a LinkedIn profile show their LinkedIn profile pics correctly though and other than that I only have BB Messenger, GTalk, Windows Live Messenger and Facebook that are linked to my Blackberry contacts.Any ideas on how I can get my contacts' pictures to sync correctly with Facebook?

This issue has been happning for a while, but for the last week or so it has been happening more frequently. A phone call arrives and sends the phone into a reset, similar to what QuickPull would do. No open apps, no error message, it just resets.I have searched a bit, but have not found anyone posting a similar issue so far. I run the stock T-Mobile OS, and a few extra RIM and 3rd party apps.

I am a new owner of a Blackberry Bold.When I receive a phone call, the phone only rings once and if I don't answer within 4 or 5 seconds I get a "missed call message". I've explored chanding ring tones accessed from the "Loud" icon without success.How do I get the phone to ring for longer like normal mobiles or landlines?

I use gmail and when I delete an email on the web, it doesn't delete on my BB. The same goes for when I open an email on the web, it doesn't show 'read' on my BB. Interestingly though, if I delete or read an email on my BB, the action is reciprocated on the web.And finally, if I send myself an email (either from the web or my BB), it appears on the web but not on my BB.

I often hear many people complaining or wanting to have the Bold 9650 look like the Bold 9700. I found this picture of the Tour 2 9650 splitting with the 9700 Bold to show the differences between of the Bold 9650 if it stays the same without changes, this is what the difference would be compared to the Bold 9700.as you can see, the only difference if the Bold 9650 stays the same as we see here when the final release comes, is that the Bold 9650 has a somewhat larger bezel VS the 9700 Bold. Other then that, you can see from the pic, nothing else is different on the face of the phones in looks.just thought it was pretty interesting(left side is the 9650, right side is the 9700.

I have an unbranded blackberry bold 9700, i have connected to wifi at home, and can browse the internet, but for some reason, i do not have uma. I live in an area with no network connection, and the reason for purchasing the blackberry bold 9700, was to have full network connection, via wifi, to make and recieve phone calls and txts. Is there a way of having UMA on my phone? would i be able to download something to set it up? something from orange?

My telephone keeps disconnecting after about 20-25 seconds of phone time.It happens 90% of the time. Doesn't matter who I'm talking to or where I am.I have tried restoring the operating system from the unofficial releases to the current bell .423 release.I have tried full format. I have even had the store exchange for a new phone (just today). Still the same problem. Calling Bell they told me to send it in for repair (which is why I got the store to exchange).The only constant now seems to be the SIM card. Could the SIM card be causing this problem? Anyone have any ideas? I've also gotten some messages on reboots unable to connect to rim_blackberry_phone app. This seems like it could be related too, no??

I could use the phone to talk yesterday, today it sounds like clicking in the background and can't hear the other party. The call says connected. Email is ok, SMS ok, Internet service ok, BBM ok, just the voice doesn't work.v5.0.0.442 (Platform 5.1.0.121)Reloaded the software using BB Desktop. Service provider says phone is probably failed.

I'm a Blackberry newbie.My family just took a great vacation to Disney and I used my BB Bold 9700 to take some fantastic photos. My question is: Is it possible to transfer those photos to my PC somehow? If so, can you please share the secret with me? I can't figure it out.

I put a lock on my phone because of my son but it is appalling that the phone is not accepting the password. I have tried it 7 times and I have 3 chance remaining.

My right function key has a function assigned to it, but is not working. The left one is fine, but not the right. Is it possibly locked for some reason, or just not working?

I have an issue with the Bold, when I'm speaking on a phone call the line disconnects while the phone receives e-mail and / or when the 3G/ GPRS switches from one to another.I have no idea on how to fix this issue. I have tried changing the network parameters for it to work on 2G only, 3G only and both but it hasn't fixed the issue.
