BB Bold :: WiFi Hotspot On The Bell Mobility Network
Dec 6, 2011
I can't seem to enable the WiFi Hotspot function on my 9900 on the Bell Mobility network.
I am on BB OS 7.1.0 Bundle 921. When I go to Manage Connections, the Mobile Network is checked and shows Bell; the Wi-Fi is enabled and shows my router. When I enable "Mobile Hotspot" I am asked to "Create a WPA2 Personal passphrase for others to connect to your device. 8-62 characters". I type in a valid string, scroll down, and click OK. I then go to my iPod Touch, select my BB and enter the password. I get "Unable to join the network"..
Bell Mobility in Canada is selling the Storm 9530 (unlocked) for $250 with no contract.I have no intention of using it on Bell but I would like to use it when I go to Europe - maybe on T-Mobile in Croatia.Since the Bell Mobility 9530 has SIM capability will I be able to use it in Croatia for all services?Or do I need firmware flashed for European carrier before I start using the device?
I am interested in this phone and it seems that it will work on Bell's new network. I was wondering if anyone can tell me whether or not the radio rom on the ATT phones will work ok in Canada if I add it to my Bell account.
I just got the Samsung T746 - does anyone know how to turn off the keytone beep every time I touch the screen? I can't find anything in the software and the manual is useless! Otherwise a GREAT phone!
Using your BlackBerry 9900's WiFi hotspot feature.. other devices can connect but the browsing experience on the other devices is worse than 56k dialup.I'm using a Bold 9900 7.1 Bundle 1646 (v7.1.0.523) on Virgin (Bell)'s network.
Alright my LG VX8700 carrier is Bell Mobility, the problem is I cannot access the service menu using the methods described for a Verizon 8700 (##PROGRAM8700) DOES NOT work for me. What happens when i type this in is nothing, my phone tries to call the number. I've been researching all day, to get to the service menu on a Bell Mobility phone its supposed to be ##123456 followed by another # key , with the six numbers being your personal msl or unlock code, from Bell. Basically what I need some ideas for what I could do, I've already tried LGDownloader and it doesnt find a model number for my phone. My other idear is more social, being I call Bell and convince one of the cs reps to give me my unlock code that is used to program your phone when you first get it, the problem being they most likely wont just tell you ( need to edit my proxy for WAP that i've purchased hopke.net). I was reading another thread that says to lie and say like, I was in the process of changing my phone number and then my phone restarted or something.
I have a unlock blackberry 9700 from Tmobile. I am trying to get it to work with my Canadian Bell sim card. However it does not pick up any kind of signal. It shows a red sos signal on the top right hand corner. My phone does pick up wifi signal but no mobile network signals, not even Edge. Please help I am in dire need of a working blackberry while I am in Canada.
I have a Bell BB Bold 9900. I keep getting a sim error. I have been through 2 wipes and 3 new sim cards in a month.This 9900 was sent to me 6 mnths ago from tech support as a replacement of a 9900 where the keyboard failed .My new BB worked fine for about 4 months. 2 months ago the I started getting a red "SOS" and sim card error.After several calls to Bell tech support and eventually to RIM tech support, I may be ready to give up. One thing to note I just figured out why i get the sim error. My phone keeps jumping ot the Telus network, Bell switched the newtowrk settings to manual but it keeps jumping.
I recently received a BB Bold 9700 that has been unlocked and I can't seem to get it to connect to the Bell Network. We have a sim card activated and it just wont find the network. Any suggestions as what is wrong or a step that I might have missed?
Can someone please help as to which OS 5.0 I should download for Tour 9630 on the Bell Network? I noticed the sticky above, but there are several links.Just trying to find out which one would be best for Tour 9630.
I was always using on other phones with Android 2.2 FroYo that 3G mobile hotspot feature, which was included right in the Android system under Wireless Networks settings.Now in Defy there is no option like that under settings in FroYo. Defy includes own app called 3G Mobile Hotspot, which should work like that option for creating mobile WiFi hotspots in other Android phones. But here is the problem.On my older phone with Android 2.2 I could create 3G WiFi hotspot wherever I needed and it worked. But now, with Defy, when I use that application 3G Mobile Hotspot, it writes me error when creating WiFi hotspot "Cannot set up data link, please contact your service provider" I suppose it is something with my carrier (Vodafone_CZ), but when I used 3G WiFi hotspots on older phones (which had that feature included right in Android settings menu) it worked without problems and I a used mobile phone for 3G internet sharing with my laptop.Now I remember, that I have deleted some DUN profile under APN Internet profiles, could it be that problem, that 3G Mobile Hotspot app is not working?how to create WiFi hotspot on my Defy for example with some other app?Or if not, how can I use Internet Tethering in Defy Mobile Networks menu via Bluetooth (my laptot has BT). I dont know, what should I set in my laptot to use Defy like BT 3G Internet provider and I dont know, if Internet Tetherig via BT is not charged at my carrier (I know, that the 3G WiFi hotspot feature was not extra charged..) so for that reason I would like to make it working on my Defy.
My ROM: original 34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.CEE Android 2.2.2
I have the iPhone 4 3G and also have a Kindle Touch. Can I set the phone to do a portable hotspot so I can use my Kindle without having to go to a Wi-Fi hotspot place?
When I try to change the Default Browser Configuration I didn't find any browser except Hotspot Browser.my operator still doesn't have the BlackBerry feature and I need to use the internet in my 9700 blackberry but alwayes it opens in the Wi Fi connection.
Just got a bell version but waiting to get it unlocked.In the meantime, I've been using it without a sim card but for some reason, I try to set up email and it asks for a sim card. I can browse, gps navigation, facebook and other web based apps but not email. Is there a solution for this?
with accompanying widgets (all 3 on one page left of home)and accompany bookmarks (all 3 in the browser)I could remove the widgets and bookmarks easily enough, but the applications don't have an uninstall option. This **** pisses me off. How do I get rid of them?What else did Bell do to this phone?

I started using my blackberry 2 days with other network I don't have a problem, connected to wifi, I download blackberry application. But I change it to new sim card and purchase the BB unlimited social service, I can connect to yahoo messenger, facebook, blackberry messenger same as the previous one but I cannot connect to wifi at home, I try manually as well. I call the network (etisalat) they ask me to delete the wifi from service book then reboot the blackberry I did it 2 time,& still not connected.
I just got a bold 9900 a couple weeks ago and I like it. I use facebook a lot and it worked on the mobile network not on wifi. Yesterday I synced my bold for updates and now facebook doesn't on my mobile network and only on wifi. How I can change it back so I can use my mobile network rather than wifi.
I am connected to my home wifi on the phone, but for some reason when I am browsing the web or trying to download apps from bb app world it uses my mobile network data services. Is there a way I can specify the phone to pick up wifi over the Mobile Services when connected to a wifi Network?
