BB Curve 8900 :: Update To 5.0 Device Software

Jul 26, 2010

I wanted to update my device software (currently v4.6.1) to the v5.0. However when i try to run the update it tells me i must have a data plan. Do you think/know if it is possible to activate my data plan for, lets say, a month, install the new version, and then deactivate de data plan and keep using the v5.0 with no problems?
(has anyone tried this?)
(is it worth the update?)
(is it worth the risk?)

BB Curve 8900 :: Unable To Update Software On 8900 To 5.0

Jun 29, 2010

I recently purchased a blackberry 8900 and am trying to upgrade the software to the newest version (5.0 I assume). However whenever I check for updates via the blackberry site the desktop manger pops up and does not offer this upgrade. All it says it 4.6.1 (current) and the rest are downgrades, so I'm not quite sure what I need to do to get the new OS to even appear, much less download it and work.

BB Curve 8900 :: Device Locking On It

Jun 6, 2010

My Curve 8900 has started to lock on it's own. Sometimes it happens when I'm typing an email or text, sometimes it happens when I'm waiting for a browser page to upload. Initially I thought it might be a particular keystroke I was hitting but it has happened when I'm simply holding the device and not typing at all. Has anyone had this problem or does anyone know how to fix it?

BB Curve 8900 :: Using Device As A Modem

Jan 21, 2010

My home broadband is down. My box is broke.I know I can use my BB as a modem to use the internet on my laptop.All very easy to set up via the pc software...My question is, would my network (02UKy know I'm doing so? I rang them to ask and they told me t'd cost me a bomb. But is that just because they had the chance to throw a charge at me?Would they know by the type or amount of data being used or by any other way?I have a BB Bolt on (unlimited BB usage) on my contract!

BB Curve 8900 :: Can Synchronize Device With Outlook - Without BES

Apr 9, 2010

8900 Curve (EDGE, Wi-Fi)
Carrier - Rogers
v.4.6.1.250 (Platform 4.2.0.113)

My outlook email account is on my device. In other words, emails to my outlook emails address goes to both my outlook and my device.

Is it possible, if I respond to an outlook email on my blackberry for that sent response from my blackberry to be in my sent folder in my outlook. In other words, can I synchronize my device with outlook so that any responses sent on my device regarding outlook emails get reflected in my outlook. I believe you need to have BES - but I don't have that. My device is a personal one - not a corporate one without any connection to a corporate server. Is it possible without BES to do the synchronization?

BB Curve 8900 :: Polaroid / Fauxlaroid Application For Device?

Mar 12, 2010

Hi, I have been searching the internet for quite some time now and I begin to assume that there is no application for BlackBerry which turns your photos into polaroid styled pictures, is this true?

So basically I'm looking for an application which gives a polaroid/vintage touch to the pictures in order to use them online (I was unable to provide picture examples since I haven't got 10 posts).

Feb 15, 2010

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.

BB Curve 8900 :: 5.0 Software Device Upgrade Error

Sep 5, 2010

When upgrading yesterday the process never finished. After 3 hours the status bar was still in the same place in the reboot phase. It seemed as if the entire computer was frozen. I couldn't do anything on it. I had to reboot the computer.Now when the phone comes on it freezes at the ATT screen. I am sure it is because the process didn't complete. How do I complete the process?

BB Curve 8900 :: Device Memory Not Appearing - How To Get Back

Feb 3, 2010

I'm trying to access my device memory through mass storage. But when i connect with Mass storage, i can only access the SD-card. This also happens when i go to options -> memory - There i can only see application memory, and media card, but no device memory, like in other phones.

Checking programatically for file:///store/home/user, shows it exists, and i'm able to save files to it. So - How do i get back my device memory ? Any one else experiencing these problems?

BB Curve 8900 :: Outlook - Device Default Server Disappeared

Apr 16, 2010

Settings:
BB 8900 (replacement just delivered...and the problem below started)
Device OS 5.0.0.411
Device Manager 5.0.1.37
Default Services: <my primary email> (I also have a second BIS email attached, but the CICAL for that one has been deleted.)

After struggling for days to get rid of the Device Default calendar (in addition to the calendar associated with my primary email and which is set as default under Default Services), I finally got my whole BB calendar on to the one calendar it should be on: the one associated with my primary email. And lo and behold, the Device Default disappeared. hallelujah, I thought.

Having cleared out the calendar using Device Manager, I then opted for a one way sync from Outlook to my new BB with its one and only calendar now, the calendar associated with my primary email and listed as the default under Default Services.....

BB Curve 8900 :: Getting Asked For Device Pwd When Initializing Desktop Software

Mar 27, 2010

i installed the blackberry desktop software from the website . when i tried to initialize it for the first time i got a prompt which asked me to input the device password

now i'm assuming the device password is the same pwd that i use to unlock me device (and its the same pwd that i have to input every time i hook up my blackberry to my laptop)

so i'm entering that very same password but its giving me an incorrect pwd notification.

is there some other pwd that i'm supposed to configure on this ?

BB Curve 8900 :: No Email Setup Wizard On 2nd Hand Device?

May 19, 2010

I bought a 2nd hand 8900 but it doesn't have the wizard to set ip my email I've looked in all options and menus but there is nothing for email. I set up blackberry in my company and I wonder if this device is set to enterprise activation instead of other activations. I called my carrier o2 but the weren't helpful and said it was because I was on the wrong tariff and didn't have an o2 email address. I've wiped the device could updating the software out this back? It doesn't show a carrier when I start it up I think it was originally purchased as a sim free device. Any thoughts?

I am trying to move music files from the media card to the device memory. I have accessed Blackberry website and followed the instructions but my menu does not give the option to 'Move'.

BB Curve :: Update Error From Version 4.6.1 To 5.0 On 8900

Jul 12, 2011

I'm trying to update my BB 8900 from 4.6.1 to 5 but am getting some errors. I get as far as the available versions ( using IE9 ) and i select 5.0 Bundle 1682 and I get the following error

There was an error updating your software This BlackBerry® Device Software upgrade includes new features and significant enhancements to the BlackBerry® solution and, as such, is only available to users with an active BlackBerry subscription. To learn more about BlackBerry® service, [URL]. Now I'm registered with BB. I have been using the desktop manager to try and update also but also getting errors. I havent unplugged the battery, and the laptop I'm using is a vista machine 32bit with loads of hard drive and loads of ram. I dont know what i'm doing wrong, I thought or figured it should be a pretty easy process.

Also I have downloaded "8900M_PBr5.0.0_rel1682_PL5.2.0.104_A5.0.0.1036_Vodafone_Ireland" and ran this but still now update.
