BB Bold 9700 :: Photos From Website Look So Vivid
Jan 28, 2010
i've had my 9700 for a few days now, but the screen continues to amaze me. it's really down to the super high pixel density - but everything just looks amazing on it!!! i converted a few dvd's to h.264 format to watch on it, and even these regular dvd's look like hd on this little thing!!! i'm just amazed... photos from website look so vivid! and i've had iphones since 07 (a 2g, then a 3gs), and nexus one for a couple weeks (returned it - too many issues). i will say the 9700 screen, despite being small, still looks better than the famed oled nexus screen... if a bold style screen gets released by rim in oled/amoled version... watch out!!! now, if only there was a way to get high quality Internet vids to show up on it (rather than the horrendously jaggedy low res versions...)

Is there a website to which you can point me to tell me what the icons are all about that appear on my screen from time to time. Latest one ;ooks like a click with a red asterix at about where the 1 would be and has a 2 to the left of the icon. A website to consult would be great.

Living 5 mins. away from RIM in Waterloo I got myself a BB Bold 9700 2 weeks ago. Dataplan and everything from Rogers. Much to my aggravation I'm unable to send photos via MMS - I'm sure I'm doing it right as I followed the instructions while on the phone w. the IT BB specialist at the University of Waterloo. I was able to send a photo to her but to nobody else which includes a BB user neighbour, my son on Telus in Vancouver, a friend w. a Bell plan on a Palm. What gives? I could send a photo lickety split on my previous Motorola and I didn't even have a data plan. I'm sooooo frustrated. I tried to send the MMS with the photo in the "small" picture setting.

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'm trying to transfer photos from my Blackberry Bold to my Mac Book.I see threads about doing this for Curves and Pearls, but not Bolds.Is there anyone out there who has a sequential, step by step about how to do this? It seems like the Media Sync I downloaded is just in fact part of the Desktop Manager, which doesn't have anything on the interface about transferring photos (just music).This device takes such great pictures I'd love to see them on my computer

I'm unable to delete photos in my "Pictures" whether it's under "All pictures" or "Picture Folders". I hit the menu key, and there is no "delete" option to select. I used to be able to delete, but now am unable to. Did batt. pull already and restart. Same problem. The only way I can now delete photos is through manager via a computer.Anyone else having this problem or know a solution?

I used to be able to use the trackpad for zooming when taking pictures or recording videos. This has suddenly stopped and I cannot figure out why.

My photos and some videos have colored lines through them. Sometimes I only get half the photo. I have pulled the battery and reset the device many many times but nothing changes. I have attached an example photo.

Some web sites default me to the mobile version instead of the full version. Some have a link to select the full web site but many do not. Typing in the full web address does not help with these web sites. If there is some way to override this selection of the mobile version

I was sorting through my photos stored on my cell phone. I was trying to rename each photo. I've apparently lost one of the photos prior to processing the name change. I didn't separate the photos into folders. There are only about 10 photos on my phone. I have no idea how I could've deleted one of the photos. If in fact I accidentally hit the "delete" button, is there a feature that states, "Are you sure you want to delete?" Regardless, is there anyway I can recapture that photo somewhere on my phone? Is there a trashcan feature like you have on your laptop where you can go back in and find it? OR is it lost forever?

I just got the new Bold 9900 (previous phone was also a Bold). I have been having endless problems with the BB browser by constantly getting one of the ffg messages:Unable to connect to the internet...Cannot open website - error 10005Unable to connect to network - even though the signal shows full 3G, BB etcThis is sooo frustrating, I've never had any problems with the old phone.I've now resorted to using the Opera (mini) and that works like a charm, except you don't get the BB menu when you press the BB button (it brings up the address bar) so you can't switch bet apps.How can I sort this browser issue, esp the error 10005. I can get onto those sites using opera but not the BB browser.

I got a new BB 9700 Bold yesterday and having problems with setting up the sync for the calendar and the contacts which are on my outlook. My hotmail email accounts are working okay. The outlook is on my PC and is the front face for my hotmail accounts.
When I go in to the BB Desktop device manager - version 5.0.1 (latest version) , I go in to the configure option on the left and it lets me click on calendar> then I select outlook and it then lets me select 'finish'. However at this stage an error box flashes up saying 'no available message stores'.
In addition when I check the wifi config on the calendar and contacts icons on the BB device it will not let me select yes on the wireless connection for them.

I have Outlook 2007 on my desktop computer and use BT as a service provider and for my email, my Blackberry supplier is Vodafone and I use BIS.I have noticed that if my Blackberry receives an email first I don't get the same email delivered to my desktop. If my desktop gets an email first then the same email will be delivered to my Blackberry. I was happily deleting emails from my Blackberry thinking I would have them all on my desktop but I now find I have to check what emails I have on each before I delete anything. Is this an issue that anyone has come acrosss before and how do I resolve it apart from synching the Blackberry and desktop?I'm often away from the desktop which is why I bought the Blackberry in the first place.

I have a problem with my Blackberry and would be grateful if anyone knows what the problem is.I have only my Blackberry 9700 bold for 1 month or so.I am unable to lock my keypad by using the lock key on top of the phone. This has happened before but after charging my phone it started to work again. I have turned my phone on and off, tried charging it and the button still doesn't work. Although the keypad will lock when I put it into the leather case.Do you think it is a problem with my blackberry and I should return it? Or is this a problem people have had before and if so, how do I fix it?

My Bold is stuck on the boot screen (at about 75%). I've tried many battery pulls with and without the SIM and it keeps doing the same thing. I've searched what I think are all the threads on here relating to this, but I'm still stuck. I'm able to connect to the device if I run Loader.exe like a user suggested, but I don't know how/where to get software to load onto the device. All the places I've searched for an OS says I need to go into the device to find information about it. Well, I can't get into the device to do that. So, how do I know what OS to download and install? I really want to exhaust all possibilities before I have to completely wipe the device because I don't have a current backup. But, even if I wipe the device, I'm going to need to download an OS which I can't do now.

I have recently purchased this 9700 (3 weeks ago) and am generally very pleased with the device. BUT If I leave the BB 9700 connected overnight to the computers USB Port for charging, and, obviously, after a few hours the computer will go to sleep, thus turning off the power to the USB port In the morning I find that the BB is: Off and will not turn on, unless it is power reset. In other words I have to open up the back and pull the battery for a second then after It is put back in the red light will display nevertheless it will turn on and be fine once it boots back up. There are no other indications or problems. I notice that other people have similar complaints with their BB's.

The other day I walked into a Walmart that had a display of cell phones. There was the 9700 there. I have the 9000. I was really looking forward to upgrading to the 9700, but now I don't know. It's LIKE REALLY small. I love the size of my 9000, and I'm afraid I'm going to have times typing on the 9700 keyboard now.

I found it out! You have to dismantle the phone, though. Walkthrough:
1) Remove the bottom plate with the branding (use guitar pick, small flat screwdriver, etc)
2) Remove and save warranty sticker in case the phone actually breaks.
3) Remove the two small screws on either side of the phone.
4) Using a guitar pick, small screwdriver, or case-opener tool, start on the sides of the phones slightly below the convenience keys and move down towards the bottom. On the bottom, there are three small clips that WILL NOT BREAK NO MATTER WHAT. Disconnect them. Then remove the keypad top first.
5) Slowly slide the pick/driver/tool from the bottom edges of the phone up until the volume rocker. One tab on each side should pop, but they are difficult. Take your time.
6) Grip the sides of the bezel and slide upwards. The top cover should come off along with the back chrome bezel (the one above the camera).
7) The phone will now appear very basic with only the trackpad and screen recognizable. On the white lower portion, several small, rectangular LEDs can be seen.
8) Use a preferred color of sharpie to color a large clear piece of packing or scotch tape, and cut it into 2mmx2mm squares.
9) Place one color square over each LED. Reassembly
10) Insert the keypad into the bezel bottom first, making sure that the screw tabs for the keypad are underneath the screw tabs in the bezel.
11) Holding this configuration, slide the bezel on top first.
12) Make sure the hole for the trackpad and the trackpad itself line up, this will assure you that the keypad is in right. Also look at the "frets" in the keypad.
13) Push on the bottom of the bezel until you hear at most three clicks (the three tabs locking back into place)
14) Run your fingers along the side with pressure to make sure that you snap in the single tab on both sides of the phone.
15) Insert and screw in the two small screws you took out before.
16 OPTIONAL) Put back the warranty sticker on the ORIGINAL side that it was on before.
17) Snap the carrier plate back into place.
18) You're done PICS TO FOLLOW
