BB Curve 8500 :: Restarts Every Time Make A Call
Sep 7, 2010
I recently updated this phone with the 5.0 version via desktop. Installation was successful, kind of. Sending and receiving text, internet, media, etc. all work fine. But whenever I make a call this phone goes off, the little red light blinks and then blackberry logo appears above a loading/buffering bar. Before the update placing calls went on without a hitch.

I am using BB 8520 Curve with the default external memory (2 Gb). I have music files (*.mp3, *.wma) as well as picture files (captured through the device itself).What happens is, from time to time I am unable to access the media card content. If I go to music, I can see the entries if I go to any of the menu filters, All Songs/Artists/Albums/Genres .. etc. But when I click on the song itself, the music player opens with a message "This playlist contains no valid songs". Also, during this time, my device rings with the default tunes on a call, even if I have set custom profile ring tones.Similarly, if I go to Media->Pictures, I can see a thumbnail preview of the photos, however on trying to open a file it just presents me with a black screen. The contact picture or the desktop custom wallpaper, however is rendered as expected.If I reboot my device by taking off the battery, things get working again.I am experiencing this issue quite frequently, almost every day. I tried to find out a trend for the behaviour, however could not make any such consistent observations.Does anyone in the forum has faced similar issue? Any inputs would be highly appreciated. This is really being a disturbing trait with my otherwise so cool BB.

I have a S5 on TMOBILE. Lately every time I try to make a call it hangs up before the first ring. Then today I was on a call over Bluetooth in my car and it cut out (other person could hear me, I couldn't hear then them) but was not in a dead zone. I've done a sift reset and completely wiped the phone as well. No change.

So, it's not the antenna, but instead, I can't even open the phone app! I have to reset my phone and then I can open the app once. So each time I want to make a call, I have to reset my whole phone. This just started happening today, and the phone is 2 days old. Any advice? I don't want to do a full restore because I "restored from backup" from my old iPhone. I don't want to lose all those things!

Using a BB 8530 Curve II from US Cellular OS v5.0. 0.337, and I would like to know if there is a way to make shortcuts other than bookmarks to links on the web? IE; bookmark the link and then save is somehow so the shortcut can be put on my main page with my other links, (phone, calendar, contacts, etc.)?

I just bought my 8520 last week and this afternoon I was not able to make and receive calls using my new blackberry. I took out the battery and sim card and waited for about a minute before putting them back in. It seemed to be working this time, but I just wanted to know what has happened to my phone. Can anyone shed some light on it so that I can avoid this problem in future?

I can't seem to make an "enter" in my texts for my 8530. What is the button? The button for the "enter" on the old Curve was the curved arrow on the right, but now, that button is used to actually send out the text. Where is the enter button?

I've had my curve for a few months with no problems until tonight. I hadn't backed my phones info up for a couple of months so I thought I would do it earlier on today. I back everything up fine on my computer but the blackberry software crashed when it was trying to restore the info from my phone { I don't know why it was trying to restore everything cause I've never done that before.} so I tried to reinstall my backup onto my phone and it seemed to work. I switched my phone back on it was working, I tried to go onto facebook and I got "A connection cannot be established to the Facebook server." so I uninstalled the facebook app and waited for the phone to reset and reload. it took ages and about 3 battery removals to get the phone to load up to the password screen, and when it did get passed that, the phone wont let me click on my text message or email shortcut. I switched the phone off and saw a white screen with an error number of app err 523. My phone has been fine since I bought it until tonight.

Ever since I updated my desktop software to 6.0, when I back up my device, it changes my time zone to Eniwetok (I am in Eastern Time Zone).My computer is set on Eastern Time Zone, and the time zone does not change in Outlook when I sync, just on my device.I even have Auto Update Time Zone on my device turned off, but it still changes my time zone. Why is it doing this, and how can I stop it?

I am an newbie in terms of the world of Blackberry.On my previous phones I have gotten used to the display turning on when a call and/or text message arrived. I can't seem to get that to happen with my 8530 Curve. Can that feature be turned on?Also, can the display to directly to text messages and/or e-mails without me having to navigate to the appropriate folder?

I have a BB Curve 8530 and I have an icon on my home screen that I cannot figure out. It looks similar to the icon used for missed call or placed call except it has a curved arrow next to it. It is a gold phone receiver and the arrow is bent at a 45 degree angle. (Kind of like a backwards check mark with an arrow head on the bottom). I have a suspicion that it has to do with call forwarding since I forwarded calls to different phone # the other day, however, I cancelled that. I have checked my messages folder, rebooted, pulled battery, done an update, etc. Nothing works. I looked through the manual and it doesn't show the icon.

I have a BlackBerry Curve 9300 3G and my Service Provider is O2. When I first got the phone, I had only topped it up 10GBP which meant I didn't have the BlackBerry internet (data) service/pack. My phone could still send & recieve incoming calls and texts but now that I have topped up again 15GBP (the amount at which I can get the Data pack), The top bar has just been saying : 'Searching for Network. even though it was working before. Now I cannot recieve or send a call or even text. The 3G doesn't work but the WiFi does. The Line with the upside-down triangle on it has an 'x' next to it.

I just bought a blackberry curve 9300. I wonder why I can't make a call thru my phone. I can only hear a message saying "your call cannot be connected, please check your phone settings". However, I can receive phone calls. I can also send and receive SMS messages.

I've been having trouble with my phone. I just got my Bold 9700 two days ago, and I've decided to tweak it a little. Once I connected my phone into my computer via. USB, two autoplay windows (as usual) popped up, one for my SD Card, and one for my Device itself, then Blackberry Desktop Manager popped up, then it froze. I force quit it and closed the program, then upon removing my phone (by ripping it out aside from Safely Removing it) from the USB then connecting it again, my Device Storage did not autoplay, and it did not show up as a device when I opened "My Computer", but my SD Card Storage shows up. I'm using OS 6 (6.0.0.723, Platform 6.6.0.248). I've tried the calfix thing, but I don't think it applies to my phone, as it's PID_8004.

I bought an unlocked Blackberry Curve off of eBay, put my AT&T SIM card in it, and it worked great for about two weeks. Then I ignorantly downloaded a "free theme" and about a week after this, my Blackberry started freezing whenever I would go to make a phone call, the screen just goes black and it freezes until the hourglass comes up and the phone turns back on in about two minutes. Also, if someone tries to call me, my phone will do the exact same thing and they will go straight to voicemail. I have removed all the applications from my phone and done my best to wipe the entire system, but it still freezes whenever I try to make phone calls. It has pretty much stopped freezing at any other times besides when I am attempting to make phonecalls now so there is a slight improvement. Is there any way I can redownload the operating software (even though the phone is unlocked) or what else would be advised that I do?
