BB Curve :: Out Of The Blue The Holster On 8520 Is Not Being Recognized
Oct 25, 2012
Out of the blue the holster on my 8520 is not being recognized. From the screen not dimming on entering the holster to all the profile options not working iro the holster.
I have a BB curve that I am connecting to my desk top computer with a Taugus blue tooth device, I have got it to par with my computer but the DM doesn't see it as connected, not sure why. If and when I get it to work right is it possible to be able to have my BB not download emails when I am connected to my computer by blue tooth?
Just upgaraded from my old Pearl to 8520 OS 5 and as always ordered a now holster to keep it safe in. I have spent all last night trying to find the option of AUTO SLEEP / key lock when in holster but to no sign of option any ideas or is it now an APP i need to buy? very lost and dissapointed if so can any one help thanks.using side button to lock key pad but was very happy with it locking when put away.
My boss has a BB Curve 8530 and she wants to set it up to vibrate only in holster and ring outside of holster. Is this an option I can set up in Profiles? If so, do i have to adjust this option for every sound (i.e. MMS, e-mail, alerts, etc)?Or there an easy way to adjust these settings? I'm not very familiar with the BBs so please be gentle.
I have an icon on my phone and don't know how to get it off. Its a blue phone with a green dot next to it and theres a 3. My voicemail was messed up when I got it and they fixed that.I'm just wondering if it has to do with my old voicemail. But I want the icon off! Any suggestions?
I recently switched from a Bold 9000 to a new Torch 9800 with the new OS 6.0. On my Bold I could set one ringtone for In Holster @ one volume and a different ringtone @ a different volume for Out Of Holster within the same profile. So far this seems impossible with the new operating system. Seems I can only set one ringtone and one vibrate for each profile. Am I missing something?
I recently downloaded the new update for my Blackberry Tour, and I have noticed that my phone is not remembering its settings (im assuming). When I have my phone holstered, it only vibrates twice and does not ring (though I have it set to Always for the ringtone) for my MMS/SMS messages. When its out of holster, it will only do the default text messing sound. I am not sure how to fix this though I have rebooted it twice in attempts for the settings.
I've had to change my BB for a new one, and some settings aren't the same.When an email comes in, I like to see which folder it's in then choose to open.It's opening the email when I take it out of the holster.
I am new to the BB...and I was playing around with it the other day and I changed a setting and I can't figure out how I did it...and now I have to change it back!I need to make the setting in my "Normal profile so that it doesnt' automatically go to vibrate in the holster.I can't find where I changed it!
I just got the 9360 Curve and the store sold me a the 9760 holster for the Bold and my phone does not turn off when I put it in the holster. The website says the 9370 holster is the one for this phone, are the holsters phone specific?
With my old BB Bold, I had my phone set to vibrate for messages and phone calls when in the holster. When out of the holster, I had the phone ringing with my personal ring tones while everything else vibrated.
I cannot figure out how to do the same with my new Curve 9900.
How i can activate the automatic screen and keypad lock when i put my phone into the leather holster? My BB before the 9320 did this automatically , i did not have to activate anything , the new one doesn't to do it. And i have tried more than one holster.
I installed the BB desktop manager for Mac yesterday, and this morning connected to remove some apps, create some space, and install all the updates. In the process of this it mysteriously just stopped doing anything right after it said "database cannot be backed up" and shut off. Now it's flashing red twice, pausing for about 2 seconds, and repeating the flashing. I pulled the battery and sim even though I was sure that wouldn't do anything, plugged it back into my laptop, plugged it into the wall both with and without the battery, and nothing has changed. The desktop manager doesn't not recognize the device at all.
I'm using a Curve 8330. Is there anything I can do or am I screwed totally? Also, and I know this is a long shot, but what are the odds that I can restore the device and save the data that's on it?
I follow all the steps to make my iPhone recognized on iTunes.But it is not recognized on Windows 7. It don't appears on My Computer, and it does not ask for install driver when I plug it in.
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.
Ok I've heared that you cna and can't use a blue tooth for mp3 I want one but only if I can use the mp3 I know they have the one that looks like a set of head phones but for were ill be that won't work so before I go out and buy one dose any body know for sure if a regular blue tooth will work?
on the blue bar under time,I've a coloured envelope with no 2 next to it,so I open tray to find what it is,its some email of some sort but can't see where or what??? Annoying!! Looks cld be summat to do with google but I've looked and nothing!how can I get rid of these icons? Also the facebook notification came up saying I'd 4 notifications and opened it,to find I'd only 1.now that fb notification is still there,its not dissapearing.more concerned bout the coloured envelope?
while trying to recharge my 9300 curve the message box comes up saying "USB Device Not recognized" . Location of device is in USB Root Hub - Unknown Device. I Tried reconnecting but doesnt change anything. It also says to replace the device. Can I try something else or do I have to replace the device? How do I get the current infoout of the old device?
I have a Curve and this is the second time that I have plugged my Curve in (via USB) and used the Desktop Manager to back-up my Blackberry and it crashes my computer. I got the Blue Screen of Death both times that I tried to back up my Blackberry. I'm afraid it's going to crash my computer, or my Blackberry. I have read that by having the HP Printer driver installed it could cause it. I don't know if it's true or not.
A couple days ago, my BB Curve 8520 (which I've had a little over a year) died. I thought it was just the battery, so I plugged it in and it took longer than normal (at least 4 minutes) to load the black BB screen and it stayed stuck on the carrier logo (TMobile) screen. I thought maybe it was just taking longer for some reason, so I left it and came back to it a few hours later and it was STILL on the TMobile logo screen!!! I removed the battery and noticed that the water damage indicator is now a light blue color....I have NEVER heard of that marker turning blue.....what does this mean?? I called customer technical support and they could not answer my question because they say they've never heard of it.....c'mon, I cannot be the ONLY person in the world with TMobile who happens to have the only phone with a phone behaving this way and with a blue water damage indicator!
so my friend gave me his bb to update it for him. Im running windows 7 and i wanna update his phone whenever i connect it to my laptop it doesnt even recognize it same with his computer, I beleive its something with the phone is there anways to update the os thru putting it on a memory card or fixing this issue, the phones been wiped before different usb chords used so its not that, i my self can connect my bb 8900 to my laptop flawlessly, i also have a bluetooth but still, doesnt work, do i need drivers maybe? i have dm 5.0.1.
I have an 8530 with 1.5 free space that won't be recognized by my Windows Professional 7 600 G OS. I have uninstalled BB OS, re-installed it, and re-booted my computer several times, The driver won't be recognized by the computer. I've tried updating the driver, but it won't take. "Software for MTP USB device cannot start." On the device driver, the BB phone and USB composite device are working properly, but the "RIM MS/MTP won't start." So the whole device isn't recognized as a device on the system.
Under driver files for the device: C:windowssystem 32DriveswpdMtpDr.dll C:windowssystem32Driveswinusb.sys
[code]....
The driver won't show up in the computer, but the BB phone says, "File version 6.1.7600.16385. Win 7_rtm.090713-1255.Fortunately, I can sync my organizer data, but I can't transfer pictures or music.
Just got a brand new BB9360 as part of a product exchange plan. My old BB's track ball had worn out. Anyway, after 4 trips back and forth from the store I bought it from to work out OTHER problems (bad battery as it turned out) I finally have a phone that I know will work (saw them charge it in the store, from a computer).Now, I know for a fact that my USB cable and ports will support a BB device for charging and syncing with a computer. Both were working just fine on my old BB device which I had until last week. The USB ports in my desktop are all new, and my laptop is less than a year old, all its ports are fine. So far, I've been able to rule out virtually all of the possible issues that the device suggests. I have done a reset by pulling the battery. I have attempted to charge it via a wall outlet with a USB to AC adapter. Nothing at all happens. I plugged it into the computer, and it told me that it cannot charge the device and it recommended I install the Desktop Manager. Well, it was already on the computer. I installed the USB drivers on their own, I've tried all my ports on both computers.
When trying to login to the existing users email setup, my username is either not recognized or is invalid. If I used the screen name of my BB ID then the password does not match whilst when I used my full registered email address, it won't recognize the @ symbol and says the my username is invalid.
I am running V4.5.0.110 on my phone, carrier is AT&T. Desktop software is 5.0.1 and Yes, I've tried the battery removal trick, spent hours on the phone with support. 5.0.1 won't even go past the "Before you begin, verify that your current Blackberry device is connected to your computer." At least earlier versions of DM let you clear that box so you could force it to recognize.
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 .
