I have some trouble after a device update i did on my phone. I now only have the choice between two languages that are English and portugès.I would like to have it in french but it's not on the phone and i cannot manage the languages from the application menu of my desktop software.
AT&T dropped the Greek language on the US BB9700. Can some one please email me specific, step by step instrctions as to how I can add it? I am not very computer literate so please be specific. [edit}
i am a new blackberry user with a bold 9700 V5.0.0.743.I am having troubles figuring out how to add someone to my address book that has sent me a SMS.I can see their phone number on the SMS but i cannot find Add To Contacts anywhere,
When I did the initial set up on my Blackberry Bold 9700 (using 6 OS), I only set up my Yahoo email account, thinking I would get to the others later. However, when I try to add an email account now, by clicking "Setup" and then "Email Account" and then "Internet Mail Account", I am kicked back to the "Setup" folder. I never get to the "Email Setup" screen where you select your provider.
I'm a n00b so I apologize in advance, but I just bought my Blackberry Bold and really dig this phone. However, I want to add more icons to the home screen other than the 5 that are currently on there.How do I do this? I am currently using the "Widescreen HD 9700 O550" theme (which looks really nice).I just switched over from the G1/Android OS so I am still learning my way around the Blackberry.
I cant seem to just add one contact it has to be two or more. i put the contact click ok but nothing happens but if theres two contacts i can compose an sms.
Tried to add pictures to one of contacts; but the picture will disappear after a while. Is there any trick? Should I rename picture to certain wording?
Just upgraded to the new OS and lost all my numbers that were not saved on my SIM card. Is it possible to retrieve just the address book from my backup i did before or am i stuck. Also when adding new numbers how do i make sure i am saving to my SIM card and not phone.
I'm trying to add birthdays to some of my contacts, but it seems impossible to go earlier than the year 1960. Is there any solution? Not everyone is younger than the age of 50, you know.
Please help-I have the Bold 9700 TMOBILE When I go to compose sms text I can add multiple people, but if you go to a contact and hit compose sms you can't hit menu and add any more people, but on my old curve when you hit menu you could add recipients? Is there a way to fix that it's bothersome, and also sometimes with the sms on a particular person it won't reply to them you just hit the button and it does nothing, but if you clear the chat, and start over it works? Please help thanks. I have the newest version and software as well thanks.
I got 9700- BB purchase directly from Research In Motion (RIM).[URL] in this page it says "If you did not purchase your BlackBerry® smartphone directly from Research In Motion (RIM), please select the link to your service ......" and what if the device is from RIM , where I can download OS for RIM devices.?Or is there any another way to install new Languages on BB device ?
I was always the frustrated one, seeing leaked OS, but if I want to play with it, I had to sacrifice Chinese reading/writing ability. Well a bit of research got me into finally figuring out how to actually insert Chinese/Other Languages capability into any OS (especially leaked ones!). Mind you this is only for BB 9700. It's actually easier than I think =) Anyway, there are two ways to doing it. Installing it as a separate add-on (Simillar to BB Maps / Password Keeper type RIM app), or installing it with the OS. 100% sure the OS method works, .alx via app loader through DM seems to be a little buggy, still testing.
Not responsible if I break your BB! Language Packs: (9700 Only) Download the Chinese Language Resources RapidShare / mirror Download the Japanese Language Resources RapidShare / mirror..........
I've noticed a couple issues when sending a text message to multiple people. On my old curve, I could hit the menu button, click "add TO", choose a contact, and thats it, simple. But on my Bold, I have to click, "Show recipients", and add another recipient. Now, the problem arises when i want to send it to only one more person. I choose the person and it has the next option for recipient open, which is blank cause im not choosing anyone else. I hit "ok", and it does nothing. I hit "ok" again and when i send the message, its sent duplicate messages, meaning each person gets the message twice. Same thing happens when forwarding. Id choose the person i want to forward the message to, but when I hit "ok" it doesnt do anything, so i have to hit it again and it adds the one contact twice. Anybody know how to fix this issue? Or is this just a common glitch that hasnt been fixed yet?
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
is it possible to change the phone's language to arabic?When I check the list in settings--> phone-->language--->phone language there isn't the arabic option.Can I download it from somewhere?
I've just started using my new BB 9700, but unfortunately I have chosen only the English language at the first setup step, so the Arabic language has been deleted.I have tried installing the BB Desktop Manager and tried to check the update Application section in order to remove or add language (as per lots of internet posts) but again I can't find any option at the Add/remove application except the downloaded extra applications (facebook, Live Messenger and BB Messenger)
For about a week my phone has been adding extra periods and spaces when I press the space bar. This has been happening with SMS, MMS and email. I knw about that short-cut (press the space bar twice to enter periods) but its doing that after almost every word. I have changed the sensitivity to the lowest setting possible but it continues to do it, even when i text slow. Not sure as to what I should do.
I'm having problems accessing any websites at all.I'm on the 3 network and can access all of their own free to browse stuff, but when i try to access social networking or BBC sites or anything else, it shows a message saying 'unable to connect please try again later'.I really don't know what the issue is, and after contacting 3 they aren't filling me with confidence that they know either.Also i do not have the option of adding my existing gmail account to my blackberry.
I entered the password three times wrong , then the blackberry asked me to enter "Blackberry" to continue , and it refuses to change the typing language - my blackberry is arabic ! and i think the problem is in the arabic bold 9700 blackberry devices
The problem is my friend has a blackberry 8310 and she did ask me to find how to add additional language into her device. Let me tell you I own 8250 and did manage install additional language into mine, but will it be possible to use the same link and instructions on her device as well as I did use on mine? Or it has to be different just because we do have different series?
I have a Danish SK17i with build 4.1.B.0.587. It has stock ROM and is rootet. What I want to accomplish, is to write Korean, but I do not want to change menus etc to Korean. I have tried a number of keyboard apps from the Play Store, but none of them support the SYM key and the globe key on the hardware keyboard (and some didn't support HW keyboard at all). I've also tried changing the HW keyboard as described on xda dev [URL]. Is there a way to add Korean to the writing languages of the stock keyboard, or do I need a custom ROM?
I want to purchase a Samsung Impression, but I would like to add language capabilities. I am looking to add Hebrew language to it. Does anyone know if there is a way to do that?
I just bought a Bold 9700 today. After installing the (Mac) Desktop Manager and hooking up the Blackberry to my Mac I went to the Applications tab and installed some additional applications. After the blackberry restarted the menu language was set to english (instead of german, like it was before), so I went into the options to change it back to german, but the only option possible is English.Does anyone know, how I can get german as a language back?
I'm just wondering if someone can help me. My device software version is 5.0.0.330 and i'm trying to update the software for east asian language(korean for me), bu it can only display , not input.I downloaded version 5.0.0442.i followed all the instructions and even downloaded other versions of software like 5.0.0.593. so frustrated! is the device software version important?
I have a SE Vivaz. I want to know if there is a possibility to change the firmware to have Spanish language? Actually I only have English and others, but not Spanish for menus and writing. Is there an option? Also, when I turn on the radio I found an issue. If you save the station the RDS option will not work because the station name is showed instead of the RDS information, is there a way to avoid this?
Brand new devices.I have a problem with auto complete text. Once I transfer language from eng to other language with the keyboard shortcut (alt+enter ) the auto text stops working. Furthermore, the option box just disappears from the menu (options - text and languages ) !. Reset by battery removal fixes the problem.But, onces you repeat the above action the auto text complete disappears again...Some bug is there.... tried it with all 5 devices of my office.I contacted my provider- they were not aware of the problem and I demonstrated it to them. They dont know how to solve it...
I don't know if my thread title makes sense but basically what I would like to know is what are the advantages of downloading the Gmail app vs just setting up a Gmail account through my BIS (Email Settings/Add Account)? My main objective here is wireless contacts sync. I have read a lot of negative feedback regarding Gmail on a BlackBerry but I will not really even be using this for email all to often, although I will from time to time. What I have done is just added my new Gmail account through the native BlackBerry email setup and then downloaded Google Sync. I downloaded the Gmail app but I didn't really like the UI and I like to have all 3 of my email accounts go into the same folder.
