I've had my BB 8900 for 1 week and I'm already thinking it is the single worst thing I've ever purchased.I've got the problem whereby I cannot download apps from BBAW (18 icon and skysports - one paid for, the other free). I've tried every fix found on forums and from google'ing the problem. What works for some is not working for me. I'm getting the error "There was a problem during installation. try again" Then:Blackberry App World is having trouble connecting to the Blackberry App World server. Verify your network connections and try again." BBAW then closes and nada.I've tried updating my BB, changing me BB id, paypal logon, resetting the BBAW using the ALT RST thingy, tried wireless on, wireless off, turning all connections off, restarting the device, hard reset, soft reset, logging out of BBAW, closing the app etc. Tried all the KB's found online and un/reinstallign BBAW. I've googled this for the last 3 days, constantly. Is there anything else I can try before I smash what started to be a great phone into pieces on the back of the useless BBAW.

New & in need of help.September 09 purchased a Curve 8900 for my daughter (14yrs) carrier is T-Mobile.
She now wants to add a few apps from -> http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/topfree
Facebook:Quick Search with Google
Am I correct that she need to download "BlackBerry App World" first? Assuming that this IS the case I tried this but we get an error message stating her device is not compatible??
software is 4.2.0.127 if that helps any? Internet access is via the home network only, this works fine as far as we know.
I have had my blackberry curve 8900 for about 4 months now and I still can not download the app world for it. I have tried and tried and keep getting the same message half way through the download saying "Download Failed. 907 Invalid COD". I contacted my service provider who said they had sorted and I was to turn my phone off for an hour and switch it back on and I should be able to download it. I done this and 3 hours later I am still getting the same message. I have even tried removing the battery and sim card but this does not work either.
I have blackberry curve 8900.When I purchased it , there is OS 4.6 in it.I have updated its OS to OS 5.0. Before updating its os I can successfully able to download .JAD file but after updating its os I could not able to download .JAD file.
why the screen info has changed when writing an SMS message. Not done a download off the computer for many months, went to change some music, it says new download to the phone is needed. Did the download, BUT!!! it deleted all my e-mails! then I found that when I went to do a text message, the screen now displays an old previous message over most of the screen with just one line left on the bottom to write in, it also has the stupid smiley face icon at the end of the line which I hate. How do I get my original full screen text page back?
I've downloaded the trial version of Beejive and want to install it. I am using OS 4.6.1.231 and am using the latest Blackberry Desktop program (v5.0.1). The instructions to install Beejive say to connect my BB to my comp and choose the application loader to add Beejive. I then "Browse" to the alx file and click on it.Fine. I do all that and then click on "next." I then see that I will I be reinstalling all the programs that have check marks by them. I decide I just want to install Beejive only so I go back and untick the apps I want to leave alone but there is only "remove" or "install" and that unticking one would result in its removal. Is installing Beejive through BB Desktop the only way to get it to work? Is there no way to go to get a jad file and download that for an automated install?
I was looking for wmv file able to use on blackberry 8900 because I got from email that have send *.wmv file into media player but it didnt works because this blackberry medai player only accept to *.3GP file. Do you know what the name of software that can download into blackberry for *.wmv file.
My 8900 wont let me get a blackberry app world update and so I can't use it, each time it goes into browser I click next after it asks for preferred language and it comes up with "Sorry, the requested item could not be loaded!"Please tell me what I can do to fix it as I cannot use BBM until it is fixed as I need to redownload that as that also stopped working
I had T-mobile connection and data plan on 8900 Curve blackberry phone. Eventually I moved to india and my phone was unlocked by T-mobile. Now My carrier is Airtel and I have no data plan with my carrier.When I try to connect my phone with WiFi, Internet is working fine in browsers (Both in Internet explorer and Opera) but applications like gmail, facebook are not working. For Example: Gmail - Tunnel Failed error Facebook - Data service not available error OS V5.0.0.190(Platform 5.2.0.11)
i was wondering if RIM will change this annoying reboot each time you install something... It's not like the iPhone you can download an apps just for fun, with BB you have to think that you don't need your phone during 5 minutes, that nobody is going to call you, and it's so annoying.I think i would install so much more application without the automatic reboot.
bb 8520 won't download apps from the bb apps store. I have the latest software and have cleared the cache but when I download apps all I get is this app is unavailable?
Ever since I downloaded something like "Blackberry OS version 5" from the web, and updated my device using the desktop manager, I have been unable to download new apps.Somehow I managed to get BBM back on -- the phone would have been useless otherwise -- but no more apps will get downloaded.Everything seems to work, whether I download via the web, or use desktop manager to install the apps, there are no errors and it says it worked -- but there is no icon for the app in any of the folders.For example, BB App world: The desktop manager says it is installed, but it's not accessible because there is no icon anywhere.My carrier say they can't help me any further as it's a device issue.I have got "show all" on, so the icons are definitely not hidden.I have tried a battery pull dozens of times.I have tried a backup using desktop manager, then factory reset the device, then restored -- several times.I have tried uninstalling the apps through desktop manager and installing them again.I don't understand what settings are supposed to be changed after I do a factory reset and restore from backup.
Carrier: Orange Device: 8900 Platform: 4.3.0.23 App Version: 5.0.0.90 (91) File Free: 113507146 Is it possible version 5 doesn't work with Orange at all? Following the link to "Orange UK" on this page, I can see Orange does list v5 for download: URL...
I have a BB Curve 8520 for 2 weeks now and I still cannot download apps.At first, I had the 4.6 version and I couldn't find BB apps world on my BB so I uprgraded it (5v).Now I have BB apps world I have the possibility to download apps but it doesn't work! Every time I get the same message "Cannot download apps from Blackberry app world...".
I recently received a message telling me that an update was available for App World. I downloaded the update, installed it and rebooted. Now I am unable to download apps. When I hit the download button it takes me to the sign in for BlackBerry ID, then to terms and conditions and then to my ID settings! The only way I can get off this screen is to press Discard, which takes me back to where I started! I just keep going round in circles.
I have created my BB ID and password and when i go to log into app world it says Authenticating" then its says "An error has occurred. Please try again later."I have tried taking my battery out for over a minute and that has rebooted it but it still doesnt work.
I recently purchased a BB Curve 9300. In the beginning I could download apps through my PC. Now I get an error message that says that I have the content protection and can not download any apps.
everytime i try download an app now on my bb it keeps saying whatever the app is is not available for download from blackberry app world! its quite annoying as it was working last wk!
Whenever i choose an app I try to download it, but when asked to sign in to Blackberry app world i type in my email and password and it then comes back with the message "cannot validate email address or password" I have came online via my pc and checked into Blackberry world with my email and password. So Blackberry world do have my email and password
I'm getting slightly frustrated at my Curve 8520's complete inability to download any apps ?I go into the App world, select the app I want and click "download". It then asks me to enter in my blackberry ID which I do, it then takes me to my information [such as email, username] and gives me options to change my password and recovery question but nothing else. I can't go forward and if I go back I just start again with the download screen and go around in circles!I've uninstalled and reinstalled app world, I've updated the OS, I've tried sending the link from my laptop to the BB but nothing works and I'm getting a tad cranky.
I recently brought the new 9320. I have the basic San Disk memory card which come with the Blackberry. Also as soon as I brought the phone I downloaded the Blackberry Desktop Support software. The desktop software and the storage options on the phone both say that I have a 14.4MB remaining on the phone storage and 1.4GB remaining on my memory card. When I attempt to download apps on the phone through my Wi-Fi it says that there is not enough space remaining. I assume that the phone only attempts to download the app to the device memory. Is there a way that I can get the phone to automatically download the app directly to my memory card? Or is there some other problem which is stopping me downloading apps?
I am usinng Blackberry Curve 8520. Recntly i have installed blackberry app world plugin in PC and I have updated my blackberry app world but I am unable to download apps from blackberry site.when i try to sign in site is not loading and i am not able to do any thing.
I have a bit unussual problem, I can NOT download any app from Blackberry App World. When I select any app and 'click' 'Download' I'm asked to accept 'Blackberry App World and Blackberry Payment Service Addendum To The Blackberry ID Agreement' and after accepting I see 'Please Wait" icon for few seconds but after that nothing happens at all.
I bought a 9300 literally yesterday, and I'm using it with my current contract sim (which includes data) until I can get a blackberry contract.Apart from the fact that I was abroad this morning, had to turn off mobile services and use only wifi, and I couldn't browse past google (I did use the hotspot browser)...I want to set up my email even though I read I can't get push until I get BB service. However I seem to be lacking the wizard. When I try to set up an email account I get asked whether I have something something Enterprise (which I don't) and can't answer anything but yes. There is a selected dot I can't de-select. So I can't use my email.Also I didn't have App World, so I downloaded it from the browser, and now its in my menu. However if I try and log in with my BB account I get an error and the app crashes, even though the details are correct. So I can't download anything.
I bought my BB Curve 9360 second hand and, despite making sure I was on a BB supported contract with Orange, have never been able to successfully download apps from appworld. I press 'download' and up comes the Agree/ Disagree box, which disappears after I select 'Agree'. And then - nothing. It has returned to the previous screen detailing information about the app and when I check my downloads, there it isn't. I have experienced a similar thing when I go on the payment methods option - I select 'Agree' and the screen doesn't change. I've been on several other forums but can't find any which have the same problem.I don't understand whether it's my BB or Orange or what?!
I know this topic is not really related but can I know why I can't download the bible apps from BB App World? I can enter the bible but there isn't any download button for me to press. I tried rebooting, taking out battery but it doesn't work. The last time I did was wiping my whole bb and now I can't download the bible apps.
I just got a Blackberry Curve 9350 from Sprint over the weekend. I downloaded some apps and everything went fine. Today, I had a notification to upgrade App World, well the upgrade was successful, and I clicked yes to allow the device to restart as soon as the upgrade was finished. Now, whenever I try to download a new application, the phone seemingly downloads it but then the screen turns black when the download is finished and will reboot itself. The new apps aren't found on the device afterwards. What is happening, how can I download the apps I want?
