BB Curve 8500 :: How To: G-Mail App Vs. Enhanced Plug-in
Jul 29, 2010
My curve 8520 came with the plug in and when I try to download gmail app, it just incorporates into the e-mail folder. What I would prefer is what I had on my old phone, the G-mail "envelope" icon so that when I read my gmail (where all my e-mail goes) inbox I have all the features (star, label, etc.).
To accomplish this, should I remove the plug in via DM and then download the G-mail app from the web?
Ok, so I've searched and haven't found what I am looking for... if any of you use Gmail with the plugin on your BB maybe you can help.
1- I can recieve/send from my BB but in the Gmail folder on my BB (the envelope with a globe thingy) I only see what I recieve. Is there a way to see everything like with my hotmail, yahoo and BB accounts?
2- How do I set up filters to recieve only personal emails using the BIS website? I entered the add filters and selected not to push emails exception Personal and didn't recieve anything.
My company recently migrated to gmail.I followed the instructions to get the Gmail Enhanced Plug-in on my Bold 9700 and I can't seem to see the new features (ie conversations, labels, archive etc).
All I did was remove the work email and re-add it as per the instructions.I tried it with my personal gmail account and it works, but just for my personal account. The only difference I can see is my work email address does not have a @gmail.com, it uses @mycompanyname.com instead.
So i bought a curve 8530.I had a curve 8330 until i dropped it into the toilet. anyhow so i plugged my new phone that i bought yesterday into my NETBOOK vis the USB cord and it turned my phone off... and it had the red LED on and the phone would NOT turn on until i unplugged it.So i tried it on my desktop computer and VOILA! Worked but not on my netbook (I need it to work on my netbook for tethering)
I have a blackberry 8530smokey violet, my carrier is Verizon. I'm having trouble receiving and sending any type of message(bbm/email/text) while on a phone call. When I hang up ALL my message come pouring in (I guess I should be happy they come in at all). Initially all the messages came in silently so I adjusted it so that I would be notified when a message comes in. I've since removed it but I still have the problem. Any advice?
Also while at work I changed the ringing to silent but all my messages cause my phone to make noise, I assumed when I made the phone silent I assumed all messages/phone calls would be silenced. Was I incorrect?
I had to add a new e-mail account to my BB Curve 8530 as the provider I was using was bought out by another company.I had no problems with the setup, but I'm wondering how I can delete the old e-mail account that I don't need any more.
I have a new Curve 8530. The past 2 days there has been a message symbol on the screen but no message when i dial into voice mail. I can't get rid of the symbol at the top. Anyone run across this before? I tried turning the power off and on but that didn't work.
So i am having problems with setting up my email on my curve. i go through the ropes in the setup wizard, but it never seems to save my passwords or actually finish setup. also, i don't seem to have internet access without wifi, i've tried doing all that registration through setup and host routing table, but still nothing.
I am using windows 7.I cannot sync windows mail , contacts,calendar with my new BlackBerry 8520. Under available desktop applications None ASCII Importer/Exporter Yahoo!
I just updated my phone, and found a new app on my homepage. Its called visual voice mail, and when I bring it up, it makes me download a "Self Serve". When I downloaded it, it was supposed to download it to my memory card, but I cannot find it, and this app wont work. Anybody know how to get it up and running?
I got a Black Berry Curve 8530 through Sprint at Best Buy Mobile. I had some battery life issues and they took it and replaced it brand new since I had the Best Buy insurance. On my old phone as soon as they activated it and I brought it home, I went through the setup wizard and everything, and set up my im's and e-mail account.
On the new phone they gave me, I don't know what they did when they switched my activation to this one, but I brought it home, turned it on, did the set up wizard and am quite confused. There are absolutely no pre-loaded apps like the last one. The last phone one that they replaced came with the social networking and IM apps and whatnot, but this phone has nothing. I go into the social networking and other folders, and they are all empty. I tried to go to setup, e-mail setup and all it talks about is setting up an email through the Black Berry enterprise server. There is no option to set up a personal email like Gmail, Yahoo mail or anything of that sort. I also can no longer send anything but text messages. I cant send pic messages or anything.
I have the BB 8530. When I get a voicemail, a simple, white icon (a single line with a small circle at each end) appears in the top left of my screen, where the email & text notification icons also appear. In the past, once I check my voicemails, the icon goes away. But this time it has not. I have checked my voicemail several times and even erased all of my saved voice mails, but the icon will not go away! How can I get rid of it?
I have a new-to-me device, after my original Curve 8530 had to be sent back to the carrier. I restored old settings from a backup re Desktop Manager, but now there are messaging problems. One, my setup folder doesn't have an e-mail setup option. Two, in "Email Reconciliation" option, only chloice I have is to change the e-mail account on "Message Services" drop-down. Related to that, if I'm in "messages," my Options screen lacks "Reconcile Now."
iphone 4 won't turn on. I press top button and still nothing. I plug it in and there is a pic of plug and itunes logo. I hook it to my computer and itunes comes up and says it has detected a iphone in recovery mode. It asked if I want to restore so I hit restore button and it starts extracting. When done extracting, a messages comes up and says this iphone can not be restored error 1656. What can I do now? I bought this phone new in October. It has not been damaged in anyway. It started one morning after charging all night.
I can plug it in but it doesn't seem to recognize the plug...I've tried a couple of them now...no charging, no data transfer. I think the receptacle must be broken in the iPhone itself. It worked a couple of times after I started having the problem but doesn't seem to work at all now...my phone is slowly losing its charge so I need to do something today - because I can't be without a working phone.
I got my blackberry for a month and it stop working it hasn't been on water neither in any other probable cause to stop working what could it be charger works and everything my screen on the thing don't work and a red light comes on when plug it but then I turns off in 5minute
I'm wanting to leave my AC wall charger at home as I don't want to lose it. USB cables are a dime a dozen so I figure I can take the mini USB cable with me and no biggie if I lose it. My question is, can I plug my 8330 into any computer via the mini USB cable and charge it? don't want to sync or anything, just charge.
i upgraded my bb software to 5.0 with all updates to now and still dont have enhanced threaded sms function. Ive wiped my software, got service books (whatever this means), and reinstalled and re updated the software, still no luck.
Is there a way to bypass using the Gmail enhanced plug-in? IE as a POP or just plain old IMAP? the Enhanced plug-in kills my battery big time as it runs all the time. I love the feature but it makes battery life a bit of drain ... yes much pun intended.

if the 9810 and OS7 have the Enhanced Gmail Plugin. I've just come back to BB after a couple of years wandering aimlessly in iOS and Android realms. Glad to be back but I'm jumping to 7 from about 4.6 and I've gone Google Apps since I left.
I understand that I'm going to lose some functionality, but can't seem to get anyone at ATT tech support to tell me if the Enhanced Gmail plugin is part of the device's software or not.
I've set up my Google Apps mail account in both the BB mail client and in the downloaded Gmail client. I get more functionality in the Gmail client, with the ability to download labels. But what I am looking for is to find out if the Enhanced Gmail Plugin will allow me to 'move' an inbox message to a label and that it will automatically remove it from the inbox? This is the only way to come home from a 9810-only equipped business trip and not find hundreds of old, already dealt with messages on your gmail account.
Trying to desperately avoid using the Gmail Enhanced Blackberry plugin, ugh so annoying. I've resent the service books.I see the gmail account normal for a sec, than it reverts to the ghetto enhanced account. Can anyone tell me how to use the normal, non enhanced account? Funny as I have 3 gmail accounts on my Bold 9700, and only suffers from the enhanced plugin.Such an inconvenience.
Just got a 9930 and it doesn't seem to include the Gmail plugin. I setup Gmail successfully through BIS, but the menu features are not available, and the plugin does not show up in Options. Is it available for the 9930, and if so, how do I install it? If not, when will it be released?
Is there any way to get Threaded SMS & Enhanced Gmail options in Messages?I am forced to have separate inboxes to get the better features in the current setup and there are no shortcuts to get to the MMS & SMS inbox or Enhanced gmail inbox from Messages making it even more of a pain.
