BB Bold 9700 :: User Name Is Not Displayed / When Receive Text

Jan 28, 2010

I have an issue with a brand new Bold 9700. When receiving a text (SMS) the user's name is not displayed, just their mobile number details. All the details of the person are stored in my contacts on the phone, and if you click the options against the text message, it then figures out the name of the sender as it adds their name in the options to email, call, SMS etc.I went into the SMS options and initially saw that the "Show names" option was marked as "No". I thought, aha changed it to "yes" but this makes no difference.

My O/S is v5.0.0.344 (Platform 5.1.0.96)

Carrier is Vodafone in the UK

I did see other posts for updates, but these related to O/S version 4xx which seems to be a different version to mine (which also seemed strange as mine is a brand new phone), and so was kind of scared to try that on my O/S.

BB Bold 9700 :: AT&T Unable To Receive And Send Text Messages

Jul 14, 2010

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.

BB Bold 9700 :: Get A Text Message / Receive And Delete A Visual Voicemail?

Jan 20, 2010

I did do a search on this before I posted it, however the one thread out there really didnt answer my question so sorry for the re - post. Does anyone know how or if you can delete the option to receive a text message when getting and deleting a visual voicemail? Previous post stated that you can't do it or that it was a bug. thought now that some time went by someone might have came up with a fix.

BB Bold 9700 :: Contacts Name Not Displayed In SMS

Jan 19, 2010

Its will not show the contact name anymore, it just started to do it today. It just displays the number which is a problem cuz I don't know contact numbers by heart.

I did a couple searches but I didn't find my problem. I'm sure there's a thread and sorry if there is as SMS problems with the 9700 are relatively common.

IPhone :: Does Any Model Allow User To Set Text Alerts Indefinitely Until The Text Message Is Read

Jun 2, 2012

I'm thinking of abandoning the I-Phone altogether because of two annoyances that get only worse, not better, with time. But if any newer I-Phone (I currently have the 3GS) has removed these annoyances, I will upgrade.

1. I want txt alerts to continue (every minute or two) until I have opened and read a text message. Does any model I-Phone allow for this?

2. I want to disable predictive text as I don't like the I-Phone algorhthym for this -- it causes me endless grief. Which model allows for this?

3. I want my battery to last a minimum of 2 days without charging (I've tried all the usual ways of reducing battery consumption and the result does not meet my needs). Does any model I-Phone allow for this?

Info:
iPhone 3G, iOS 4.3.2

BB Bold 9700 :: 9700 Handset - Unable To Make / Receive Calls And Hear From Handset

Feb 24, 2010

Recently I have been getting a problem with my 9700 Blackberry. When I make or receive calls, I can not hear anything out of my handset. The person on the other line can hear fine (Usually with me going Hello Hello a million times!) The only time I can hear anything is when I have my bluetooth on or switching it to speakerphone.

I tried doing the soft reset (battery pull when the phone was still on) ...still nothing. Although it did work a couple of times. Its on and off, but recently the situation has gone from bad to worse.Anyone out there with the 9700 with the same issue? It's really annoying and I do use the phone a lot for important calls.

BB Curve :: Cannot Receive BBMs From Another BBM User

Feb 28, 2011

I have a weird situation here.I have a Curve 8350i; yesterday I upgraded the BlackBerry Messenger on it from 4.6 to the latest version, 5.0.1.41. That seemed to go fine; I IMed w/several of my contacts during the course of the day.Later that day I also installed updates for Google Talk, Yahoo IM, and AOL IM; why, I'm not sure, as I seldom use them.After that I noticed that I was able to send IMs via BBM to a specific user but not receive messages back; earlier in the day after upgrading to BBM 5.01 I was able to IM this user.

My phone has been a touch wonky the last few weeks so I uninstalled BBM 5 and reinstalled; that didn't work.I shut down my BB a few times, removing the battery each time, and still, nothing.This morning I performed a wipe after deleting the contact and readding said contact. Still nothing.After wiping and reactivating my BB I then downgraded to BlackBerry Messenger 4.6. I sent test messages out and others could get and reply to them, but not this one user; again the user would get the IMs but not be able to reply. As BBM didn't seem to be the problem I went ahead and re-upgraded to BBM 5.0.I have since deleted the user again and had the user try to request me again; I get the requests and approve them and the user enters my contacts, but still cannot send me messages.

I am able to send PIN messages to this user and said user can reply to PIN messages.Basically, after all that I have done the user can receive my messages but when the user replies nothing is sent to me.

BB Bold 9700 :: Cant Receive Any Kind Of MMS

Feb 18, 2010

Ive had my 9700 since December...never had a problem until a week or so ago. I am suddenly not able to receive any type of MMS. My phone receives the message but when I open it all I see is a small red X near the top of the screen, and if theres text in the message, I also get a message "Text attachment missing or invalid" right below the red X. However, if I forward the message to myself, it works and I can then see the pic and/or text that was sent.I am on ATT, OS 5.0.0.405 (from the factory), and have an unlimited message/data plan.

I can SEND MMS just fine. Something I noticed is that when I go into my message folder, theres an icon of an envelope with a small arrow pointing to the right of the message (see pics below). Also, my friend said she tried to send me a couple of MMS pics last week, but after a few minutes, a red X showed up next to her sent messages instead of a check mark (which indicates message sent successfully). I never received those messages. I also had her try resending the pic several times, and even had her try to take and send new pics, and also had her try to send older pics that have been on her phone for a while to see if the pic she was sending me was somehow corrupt and if it was just new pics that had the problem or old pics. Pics I received fine months ago are not coming through now. Everyone else she sends the pics to gets them just fine. She is sending from a Curve 8310.Ive tried a battery pull, SIM card pull, have had service books resent, and have run a diagnostic test from options > mobile network > menu > diagnostics test > menu > run. It all seems fine.

BB Bold :: 9700 Cannot Send SMS, Only Receive

Apr 11, 2010

My blackberry bold 9700 cannot send SMS to any number, it can only receive SMS. Email and other online services are working well. I have checked the message center and it's correct. This problem started 3 days ago. Before that, SMS is working fine. I haven't done anything special 3 days ago, and really clueless about this. Early this day, I tried to put my sim card to other phone, and it can send SMS. Put it back to my bb 9700 and this problem started again.

BB Bold :: Can't Receive Text Messages

Oct 26, 2011

I originally had a Verizon blackberry phone. Then I unlocked it, gave it to my sister, but then at first when I tried to call her new ATT number, I couldn't. If I called from the phone to my house. The caller ID was my old number?. Even when I texted it was my old number even with her new SIM card in it. So then I tried playing around with mobile network options. I found a way, kind of. This is what I did

BB Bold 9700 :: Gmail-Can Send But NOT Receive

Jan 3, 2010

I have been trying to get gmail working off & on for about a month now. I have had a gmail account for as far back as I can remember. I have set it up on my 9700 and received the "congrats" email from the bb service, but never receive emails.

Created a NEW gmail account, and have tested from my hotmail account (which IS receiving and sending fine on my BB). Still not receiving gmail on device. Called T-Mob, spoke to rep and BB supprt rep. I recieved 2 or 3 emails that night (couple of weeks ago). Nothing since.

Can:
Send an email to hotmail account and gmail accounts from my BB (using a gmail account to send) and I receive them on my computer. I recieve the hotmail email on my BB, but not the gmail. No matter what I do, I can't seem to receive gmail on my BB.

I have:
•Resent the Service Books from both the Handheld and my PC (A few times)

•Registered a few times through the Host Table and got the registrering email

•Checked to ensure no filters interfering on my provider setup and made sure that it is set to "forward to device"

•Deleted the Gmail Account and set it up again - same issue

•Set up a hotmail account, which works fine.

•Confirmed Gmail settings (on gmail site). POP is enabled (recent)as well as IMAP

•Checked Firewall settings

•Rebooted my Blackberry by pulling the battery after most of the events above

I'm an IT Support Specialist, but just can't seem to figure out what the problem is. I am new to BB and new to the community, and I feel like this is just beyond my periferal vision.
