Since yesterday I am owner of 8520 curve.I did set device password which I would like to remove. However, when I go through the menu to the option "Password" the field showing password "Enabled" is light gray colored and small lock is shown. I cannot change this field, no matter what I try.
I set a password which locks my phone. This seems to be annoying and I want to remove the requirement for a password. The booklet says to go to "device options", select security and that's where I can de select the password. The problem is that I cannot seem to find "device options"..
I have my device since a few days. If I want to type a telephone number I can only type 3 digits, or less, and then the device is locked and have to unlock it all the time. I can not even type a simple message, it always locks and have to unlock it like 10 times until I have completed my message.
I tried to download photos/contact details for the first time on my pc I downloaded the software off the Blackberry website and everything went swimmingly until it asked for a password. I have no idea what it is must have set one up in the shop or I perhaps did it when I first had the phone anyway I cat remember it and it is imperative that I do not lose the photos and contacts that I have must have had he phone for over a year. The phone is now asking for a password in letters -this is different to my usual 4 number access code.
my phone is not accepting my password and i am almost on the limit of tries i did disable the password thinking i would not need to sign in every time i put the phone on. when i want to use the phone now it asks for the password but will not accept it when i put it in. by the way it is the curve 8520 does anyone know what i can do to get rid of the password
I'm having problems with my daughters curve when trying to turn it on. When I turn it on it take 5 mins or more to load and then freezes when I get to password screen. If I enter a password no cursor appears and after a minute it says password incorrect. I have connected to device manager and the password is correct on the pc. I've noticed that the Aa symbol (caps locks) flashes on and off on when starting up. I have googled the problem with no success. I have tried a battery pull with and without sim card. Ctrl alt delete also failed. I have connected to device manager and deleted an app to see if frees phone up but no joy.
I had a BB curve 8520 for past 2 years and loved it. Over Christmas, my son had my old BB and I bought a new one - exactly the same - the Curve 8520. Both operate on orange networks. My old BB was v4 new BB is v5.I have a personal email address, and 5 work email accounts - all of which have worked perfectly fine on the old BB. However when trying to add them to the new BB, although my personal account has been accepted, when trying to input my work email I keep getting a message that the password is not correct (which I know it is. I have even tried resetting my work email password on the email server).The email accounts were removed from the old BB when it was given to my son, and although they have worked on that BB for 2 years, I tried reloading them on his BB - but now have the same error message of incorrect password.I have surfed the net and can see this seems to be an issue, mostly for gmail accounts (My work email is not a gmail account) - but no specific response on how to resolve it. I have carried out all the checks such as making sure keyboard is set to right language, and font does not automatically set capitals as first letter, so that isnt the problem.The phone is primarily for business use - so I absolutely have to resolve this.
I have received a message asking me to validate the password for an MSN email account I access through a work Curve 8520. I have done this before without any problem but now my BB says there is a problem connecting to the server so I can't access my email accounts to validate. Email is still coming through on other accounts. I tried to use the PC and access through the Blackberry Internet Server page but can't find anywhere there to access email account settings (all the guides say email settings are on the left hand pane of the page but not on any page I have found?
Plugged in my phone to the computer for the first time. I've fallen at the first hurdle. Device password is requested. I've tried the Blackberry ID User Name, my password, and the pin no. None of these work. What is meant by the device password?
I would like to synchronise my emails/contacts with my MS Outlook but my BlackBerry keep on asking me for the device password. what is this password because it is different from the one I'm using to unlock my phone.
hone is still down since last week monday ,am only charging it , i thought it will be resolved any time soon but still not resolved .it only ringing but when u press any button it does not respond.
when i try to sign into my bbm it says my password is incorrect and have also changed it but still no good = now it locks me out for 15 mins, so cant download apps etc, when i try to edit id in devices cant save any changes as it wont accept password.
Basically I have a problem my blackberry curve 8520 is only 4 months old, it's been working fine until today the screen has poped saying ' No GPS device detected! Please activate GPS on your blackberry for accurate location readings.' I can't do anything else click on the home on/off button nothing works I have took the battery out several times but nothing is working.
Is there a way to figure out the password of a router that is already stored in my 8520 curve? Connect seamlessly with this router, but I want to know the password. It is preserved somewhere in the phone memory, but I do not know how to get to it.
I was sent a new Blackberry curve 8520 as my old one broke, and am trying to set up my email accounts again. First, I couldn't remember my username/password combination for BIS. I rang my service provider several times and was told that it was nothing to do with them and that only Blackberry could sort out the situation. Well eventually I managed to get in to my email settings and set up two email accounts, however there was still one more I wanted to set up, but when I tried to log in again it wouldn't work! Even though I used the same combination as before. Using my username, I requested my password to be sent to me and it said it was sending but I still haven't gotten anything.
The phone charges, boots up, Pin is recognized by DM.However, when i turn the phone on, the screen lights up and it prompts me to enter the device password. I am able to scroll up and down through the three options (Unlock, Emergency, Cancel) but i am unable to click down on any of them. Once the screen dies down back to sleep mode it doesn't light up anymore no matter what i press.I've reinstalled the default software 4.6 but that didn't help. What's wrong and how can i solve it?
