I recently purchased the Blackberry Curve 8520 on a Fido plan.The phone stops ringing, often. When this happens I remove the battery and it resets itself only to stop ringing a few hours later.This happens more quickly after any game play.Operating system is v5.0.0.900, platform 5.2.0.96
I purchased a new 8900 on ebay and received it today. I want to change the ringtone. When I try out more than 1 ringtone from the list it stops ringing. I have to pull the battery before it will ring again. The phone has version 5 software.
My blackberry 8520 curve is not ringing. Ive been sent 2 new phones since my phone is under warrenty still. I have done 2 master resets and other things . now they are sending me a new phone again.I cant upgrade to a new phone new to my contract.
My phone not ringing when in BBM, email, etcit doesnt even show that an incoming call is coming in. I only know when a call has happened when I get the sms from my service provider
I have a Blackberry Curve (8530) from Verizon and within the last 24 hours my phone has gone from being fully functional to not functioning at all. First, my speakerphone stopped working, then I lost all sounds (ringing, alerts, etc) yet the vibrate setting still works, and now my trackpad has frozen to where I can't navigate the phone at all. I can still make calls by typing in the number or using my programmed numbers on the keys and I can still receive calls as well, but if I try and navigate using the trackpad, I can't move off of the sounds icon.About 4 days ago, I downloaded the new OS software when my phone prompted me to and when these problems started happening, I did a "soft" reset (alt+right shift+del) and a "hard" reset (removed the battery) which not solve any of the problems. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas about how I can fix these problems outside of going to the Verizon store and waiting hours to get help?
My curve 8520 stops rebooting 75% of the way through and this has been left freezed, i try to used the desktop manager and doesn't detect my device. this problem come when i was updated the blackberry twitter. I went to a store and the blackberry technical said the problem it's a chip inside the device. i think thats not true.
CURVE 8520 not coming on ..My phone loads up to about 70% and stops there,left it for hours and it never went further.pulled out the battery over 5 times.no luck
My Electrify automatically stops ringing. It is set to always vibrate, however it is supposed to ring as well. I will restart my phone and it will ring normally, I put it down on the table for a little bit and it starts vibrating only. I have checked the settings and all of the volume (ringer, media and notfications) are all on the loudest settings. I have tried changing the vibrate settings to all of the different options but if it is set to never vibrate the volume still does not work and I will never know if I have a call or message. The problem occurs with all of the notfication tones. I use the prestored tones for everything except a 3 of my contacts have their own ringtone.
I was doing a reboot on my blackberry, as it was booting, at about 70% it just stops. I tried to connect it to the BB desktop manager so that I can try to update the device software, but it only connects to my pc when the battery is removed, when I put the battery back in, it disconnects then switches itself on, loads up till about 70%, then stops. I even tried leaving it the entire night with hope that it will get through that stage, but it still wont budge. I tried downgrading the OS to v4.6.1 but the phone doesn't switch on at all. So I upgraded back to v5.0.0 and it still gives me the same problem.
I have a problem with my Curve 8520. This morning I received an update notification for the T Mobile app, so I upgraded in the usual way. The device then needed rebooting, so I clicked "Reboot now". The white bar that loads on the start up screen will not proceed further than about 3/4 of the way along. I have tried removing and reinserting the battery. I have tried holding the escape key while it loads up. I have also tried both of those while its plugged into the charger as well. Been trying for about 4 hours now to get the phone to restart, but with no success.
Recently my 8520 screen just goes white and stops working. It restarts when I charge the phone and works properly till the next white" out which is becoming more frequent as the days go by. I read up a fix that has to do with disassembling the phone but i dont know how to go about it. Does anyone have any other fix or a guide on how to disassemble the phone?
I have the X6. The phone rings and I unlock the keyguard using the slider on the side of the phone and the phone stops ringing. Then in order to answer the phone I press the green button on the bottom left of the phone or I press answer call on the screen and then I can speak which I suppose sounds fair enough. But I just think that something is wrong because surely the phone should continue to make the 'ringing' noise until I actually answer the call rather than going mute just because I have unlocked the keyguard.. Am I doing something wrong or is this just how the phone works?
All three people in my family have a 8520, this morning all 3 devices were not picking up the wi fi in the house, I know the wi fi is working as 2 laptops and an ipod are working fine. Is there a problem in the blackberry network causing problems, by the way hte 8520's are different mobile networks - seems the blavkberrys are tghe common factor here
On my blackberry the middle sensor key regularly stops working. I have had no other problems with anything else and it doesn't happen all the time but when it does it makes it very difficult to use the phone. A friend of mind said that 'I may need to reset the setting back to the original setting.
How can I increase the ringing volume on my blackberry smartphone 8320? The manuals says to go to options-general options - etc. But there is no general options. I miss calls because I can almost not hear the phone ringing.
I am using a Blackberry Curve 9360 Smartphone.Hope you can help me, I have inadvertently ticked the "All Alerts Off" option instead of the "Silent" option.The phone rejects my attemps to change it back to All Alerts on, with a reply "Alerts Off cannot be editted or deleted"There's a red tick mark next to the icon, and the icon is also highlighted in red.The "Normal" option is ticked at the moment but the "All Alerts Off" option remains the same.Incoming calls go straight to voicemail without a ringing alert, and a sms informs me of a missed call.
Using a Nextel Curve - when a call comes in the phone vibrates first, then begins ringing. I miss calls all the time at home because I don't hear it vibrate, and it only rings for about 5 seconds. I've downloaded ringers that are 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds in length and it doesn't make a difference. Vibrate, vibrate, ring for 5 sec, missed call... Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I find that when my phone rings it is only 2 rings and then goes to voice mail. how do i increase the ringing time before it goes to voicemail so that i can answer the call.
Does anyone know when the OFFICIAL 5.0 update for tmobile comes out, i see the leaked versions online but I don't want to risk it. Right now I'm running. 4.6.1.259.
If anyone out there could lend me a helping hand with this. Well, im not a very heavy BB user but ive never had my batt go dead on me but it happened! i totally couldnt turn my phone on until i put in my charger.Then it happens randomly whereby my phone will heat up and the battery drops 5% every 10mins or so! until it shuts off!! It happened once right after i fully charged my phone and it shut off within the next hour.Anyone knows whats happening?? i suspected whether it was any of my installed apps that are draining my batt, so i shut off everything! i mean no msn no foursquare no twitter only emails are on but yet it still happens!!Help please? i hope its just the batt thats screwed not my phone.
I have a 8520 and recently updated my software. After I did this my email envelope has disappeared. I have replaced my original settings and nothing. I do receive emails but in the general message envelope.
I have a 8520 T-Mobile and everytime I get a new email and or text it rads it automatically. I want it to stop .How do i do it ?It is disturbing i managed to turn off the text but the mail keeps on doing it .
I have an ATT 8520 Curve unlocked to work with a tmobile sim card and have a few questions...Now that's unlocked I cant setup an external email account (hotmail, gmail, etc...) that icon is missing from the setup section. how can I get that feature? can I also use the bbm feature? I added a friend (and vice-versa) but it just stays as pending. is it possible to bbm? for the above 2 do i need to get the bb data plan so they can work? I've read elsewhere that the best way to get the features would be to load the tmobile handheld software. I went to tmobiles site, I enter my ph# - select the 8520 - click on handheld and it takes me to their 'shop for phones' page. I guess they now by the number that i dont currently have a bb. So I tried a friends ph# from tmobile who has a bb and it still took me to the 'shop for phones' page. So I Am hoping it's just a link glitch going on right now. I did download from this forum the 5.0 OS "8520wifiM_PBr5.0.0_rel860_PL5.2.0.47_A5.0.0.509_W ind_Hellas.exe" which obviously is not tmobile. What would loading this different OS allow me to do? Or what features will I have available? and I have lowercase 'edge'.
