So I used to have the 8900, and whenever I had a text message, I can just highlight it and click 'save', and it would save a copy of it in a folder, which means I can delete the one I got. For some reason, with OS 5.0, I do not have that option anymore. I went to the SMS option and had it saved to an SD card, but doesn't work.
When receiving a new call from a new number (with caller ID, this number is not in my contact list), I can see both the name and number displayed, if i go to Add to Contacts, only the number gets copied over, and i have to manually type in this name (came displayed thru caller ID), is there any ways to get this default name copied over every time when I add a person so I don't have to type it in? A side question, numbers broken down to ### ### #### with spaces that are saved in contacts still will work with calls, but when receiving text messages my phone wont recognize it was already in my contacts(as in, it will show the text is from a number instead of the name I saved in my contact list). because text message numbers come with +1######### format.
so i received an sms from a friend who i dont have saved in my contact list.is there a way to save the number straight from the sms into my contact list without having to copy it first and going into Contacts and saving it there
Is there a software to save sms from BB device to pc in a windows environment? I mean something like Jeyo Extender for Outlook with Windows CE devices.
The problem I experience (BB Bold & AT&T, using on Microsoft Exchange, with Mac Snow Leopard) is that every time I save an email as draft, it appears as a new unread email on my BlackBerry. And I cannot delete them just one by one, which is kind of annoying with 20 messages...
I recently purchased a BB Bold 9000 and my SMS message inbox is full already. Every time I recieve a msg it asks me to delete some msgs to create space. Is there any way I can save all my existing msgs to my device or my memory card and all the incoming ones too?
I got the Bold 9700 from AT&T on Saturday and I have unlocked it and started using it on the Bell network as of yesterday. Before getting the Bell SIM card, I upgraded it to the latest OS from Bell (platform 5.1.0.116 ; app version: 5.0.0.423).I was taking notes on a memo, and I suddenly started getting an error saying "Memo updated externally. Changes will be lost and the viewer closed." I'm pretty used to saving on a regular basis, so I didn't lose too too much of my notes. It started saving OK for a while on the same note after it happened twice within about 5 attempted saves (so the 3 or so in between did work). At one point my memo got duplicated for some reason. I deleted it and was working with the one left. Eventually it started doing it every time I tried saving a note regardless as to whether or not I actually made any changes to it. Finally after not touching my BlackBerry for a while, the memo has disappeared. Not quite sure what's going on with my memos at this point. I haven't synced my BlackBerry with the computer at all today. I'm using BIS, and I have nothing that should be modifying my memos.
I am wondering if there is anything I can do or if I should downgrade back to AT&T's latest available OS version which is older than Bell's latest. I've found no one having these issues with memos, only with contacts and calendar entries. I've always used my BlackBerry for taking notes that are very important for me.
Just recently I have had some problems sending normal text messages..The problem is when I want to send a text I go to my contacts and try to send a sms message, but instead of opening up a conversation window I get taken straight to my recieved messages... I havent had a problem replying to messages after people have texted me, its iniating the converstation thats not working.
Just a couple of days ago, I received a BBM from my daughter, although my cell was turned off for the night. I thought maybe I'd not turned it off. Last night again, I turned it off (I always do every night) and was woken early because not only was my turned off phone receiving messages, it had also enabled my Drive Safely app and the phone was busy reading everything to me.I checked and the phone was off. I still had to push the red phone key to turn it on.I immediately did a battery pull and will hope for the best.Has anyone had this experience?
I am running .423 on my 9700 and cannot find the right option to combine my SMS/MMS messages in the Message Folder. With 405 I was able to go Menu>Options and see a dialog box to combine folders, but I can't find it under .423
I am brand new to blackberry, just got a bold this week (9700). All of my text messages are going to my email inbox. Also I keep getting a text repeated (every 15 minutes yesterday) from a number I don't know, it's "0476000000" and it sends the message "n:m=3=1"
I've just got a new white Bold 9700, and put a 16gb memory card in it from my Curve 8310. I dunno if that's what's caused it, but now I can't see my message folders on the Bold - be that the BBM, text, or my three email accounts. I'm still getting email notifications. What I've done to cause them to hide, and how I can get them back?
I'm designing a theme for the Bold 9700 and I am hoping someone can please give me the exact name of the file / application to open the "Messages" envelope -- net_rim_something_or_other . As best I can tell, I need to define it as a third party app so that I can use tiny icons, but the name of the application must be precise in order for it to work.
I have noticed lately that the red LED comes on indicating there is a either a message or e-mail, when I check there is nothing there and no past messages for it to think its a new message. Any idea as to why its doing this and how do I fix?
i know someone who jsut got a 9700 on Tmo and are running the latest official OS and she says her messages just dont open no matter how much she presses them, but bbm works just fine.
i cant open BBM's i have tried they battery pul out solution which does work but only temporary. Is there not a perm fix for this as the battery pull out solution is just getting too much lol.
I just got my Blackberry Bold 9700. Yesterday The BBM was a seperate icon under Instant messages. After that i installed BBM version 5.0.0.57, However after the installation the BBM is now combined within masseges. I tried returning it to factory setting and checking the Options but they have no mention about BBM.
Its abit hard to use and i want a seperate icon for this. Was the application supposed to do that? How do i seperate it from messages?
I'm a new owner of a BB Bold 9700 and I just setup my work email and it's icon name is "Work Email" where only my work emails are received. There's also an icon name "Messages" that is receiving both text messages and my work emails. Is there a way so the Message icon can only receive text messages?
I got permanant error 507 on my bold screen. When I try to restore from a back up through Deskstop I get a 561 error. What is the solution to get my Blackberry working again ?
We have the BES through our exchange service. Two people in the office each got a new Bold 9700 and they are able to sync wirelessly. When one person types an email from his desktop in outlook, it shows up as a sent message on his BB. This does not happen to the second person. Why is it doing it for one person and not the other when everything is exactly the same
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......
Has anyone else had issues with texting today?I have been recieving up to three or four duplicate text messages today from two different contacts.Also it is taking two or three tries before my texts are sent. Just wondering if it is my phone or something else?
