Where can I find the settings for standy mode? my phone does not go into standby mode anymore when i pout it into the holster, i know there was a setting but i cant find it anymore.
My BB has started giving issues since a few days. Whenever the phone is in standy, the battery is completely drained off. There are no additional apps running. I don't overcharge the battery either. There has been no change since it was working perfectly well. I also bought a new battery but the same issue.
I searched and searched and searched but I couldn't find a way to change the in holster settings. This is what I have tried so far: Profiles>Edit normal> ?? No holster settings ? options>Password> Lock Handheld Upon Holstering
I had a Pearl 8120 before, and it had the ability to store different volume levels for handset, speakerphone and headset.The 9700 seems to have just one setting for all.If you change the volume on the speaker, the volume will also be changed for the headset.I find this rather annoying. Or did I overlook a setting somewhere to make it work?
The progress bar has frozen approximately two thirds the way across. I have removed the battery and done the suggested soft resets but when it startsup the progress bar freezes in the same place.I have now tried the factory reset in the BBDesktopapplication. I get a message saying it is initializing and a small progress wheel is spinning. It has been like this for 6 hours and there has been absolutely no movement on the progress bar.
What is bedside mode? Is there a way that when i charge the phone, the screen goes blank? Don't really want the clock on my screen. Also, it seems like only sometimes does my email icon on my phone get the little read dot that indicates a new email. Some times it does, some times it doesn't. Also, my fiance has a bold as well, and I tried to text her this morning. I went to compose SMS, but it going out as a BB messenger conversation instead.
I want to reset my phone to its original factory settings but the only way I can do it is on my computer, the screen of my bold 9700 is completely white and I was told to wipe the phone clean and redo the OS. How to reset the phone on the computer, as I said, I can't do it on the phone itself.
Is there an option to change the amount of icons that appear on your home screen on the BB Bold? I have one row of six icons on the home screen, and would like to add another row of favorite icons to my home screen.
How can I restore my blackberry bold 9700 back to factory settings? The phone has a mind of it's own, only some buttons are working and it keeps turning itself off, calling random people and so on and it's only been since the last update it did.. need to restore.
just updated to .545 and now i have no standby mode. also when i lock my device, before i needed a password to unlock but now it unlocks without having to enter a password.
My BIS stops working every time my Network mode is 3G. (or 3G & 2G)the little BB symbol just disappears, internet, BBM & email will not work.As soon as I put my phone in to 2G mode everything starts to work.I'm on Three UK network witch is 3G by default.is this a common problem with the 9700? or does my phone need looking at?
I have recently installed OS 6 on my Bold 9700, but it keeps on going into waiting mode (small clock face on screen). I have tried deleting programs that I don't need, but haven't solved the problem.
I have bold 9700 running os6 but I want to get back my 2g only option in mobile network options. I use BB 9700 of H3G UK. In OS5, it has 2g mode, 3g mode and 2g&3g mode but there is no 2g mode in Mobile network option in OS6. I have tried to reinstall OS6 and nothing change.
Is there a better way to do get the 2g only option back?? Don't tell me that I have to downgrade to OS5
I noticed today when I got home that none of my email had come through on my BB. I did a battery pull. So, I went to "Manage Email Settings" and tried to connect, but got "The application has encountered an error and cannot continue." Update - I just checked my device manager and it says I'm disconnected. It says "COM3/Disconnected" to be exact.
When i first got my bb9700 i added my hotmail account and everything was working fine but i deleted my mistake and now when i tryed adding it again i get this msg sent to my phone. If you use an email client (e.g. Microsoft(R) Outlook(R), Mozilla(R) Thunderbird(TM), etc.) to access your avibassi91@hotmail.com messages, change your email client settings to leave your email messages on the server. If the email client does not leave email messages on the server, the BlackBerry(R) Internet Service may not be able to deliver them to your BlackBerry(R) device. To leave email messages on your email server you may need to complete the following steps:
1. In your email client (Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.) on your computer, under Tools or Mail > Preferences. 2. Select your email account. 3. Locate advanced, server settings or options. 4. Select the option to leave email messages on the server.
Refer to your email client help for more information. Sent from my BlackBerry device on the Rogers Wireless Network I cant find my own email icon on my blackberry screen but some of my msgs still get sent to my blackberry msg icon. im not that good with blackberrys and computers
Anyone know if it is possible to have the screen fade off during bedside mode? I like the auto profile and LED off feature but I would like the screen to go off when I'm charging on the cradle at night. I'm a little paranoid of having the screen on all night every night when it is on bedside mode.
I just updated the latest software to my bb 9700, upon undating i notice that the "key lock" key and the "standy key" located on top of the phone is not functioning anymore. is that any ways that I can i activate back both the keys? or how do i lock my phone with your latest software.
I have read about 30 posts on this subject and no one seems to be answering this question about the recently revised change of the "standby button/mute key" change. I do not holster my 9700, so a TRUE standby button is very helpful. A few posts indicate that the key lock button (left button of top of unit) is the same thing as Standby mode. IT IS NOT THE SAME THING! Keyboard lock has nothing to do with putting the phone into a lower power state. With that, does anyone know if there a button or process to put the phone into true Standby mode (other than by holstering the phone)?
Despite putting the very latest firmware on my 9700, the email Settings Application ( in Setup Folder - Email settings) still takes me to a browser based setup on the BIS . my old 8900 and my work 9700 has an application type interface.. Why is this a problem ? Because it wont let me setup gmail Contact sync .. Keeps giving me a message "To start xxxxxxxx@gmail.com contacts synchronization with your BlackBerry® device, complete the security activation on your device:
1. In the Setup folder, log in to the Email Settings application.
2. After you log in, the security activation starts. When security activation is complete, wireless synchronization of your contacts with your device automatically begins." This does not work and I'm guessing because i dont have the latest email settings on the device.. I have tried re-installing firmware , wipes etc..
I have the device set up for "Bedside Mode" when charging (sits in the OEM dock at night). I left the device "on" and placed in the dock. The keyboard light, screen all dim as they should and the "clock" displays on screen as well. Then after about 20 sec the keyboard buttons all turn on and the screen brightens up. A couple of sec's later they all dim back down. This process repeats itself over and over like the damn thing has a heartbeat or something! I don't recall this doing this the first two nights that I used the new dock/bedside mode.
When connecting my BB 9700 to my Windows 7 PC via USB I used to be able to select the option on the 9700 of using it as a Mass Storage Device and then navigate it on my Windows 7 PC.Now, for some strange reason, even after agreeing to use it as a Mass Storage Device, it doesn't show within Windows 7 Explorer.
I have noticed since switching to my 9700, only one key works to activate snooze. (.....makes for some challenging fumbling in the morning, which has yet to land my bb in my נעגל וואסער) Previously touching any key triggered snooze Escalating mode doesn't seem to escalate! That was a good feature. Has anyone else noticed this? Are they bugs or am I missing something. Or perhaps something became corrupted when I transferred settings from my 9000.
I put the phone in bedside mode then drop it in the cradle and when I wake up the clock is gone and the phone is frozen. It won't let you do anything not even shut it off, I have to do a battery pull.
