BB Curve :: Saving BBM Conversation On 8520 (Device)?
Jun 1, 2012
I have looked at many many forums and have not found a suitable or satisfying answer. I set my Save Message History to Device. Now when I access my BB from the computer, I open the IM folder. This folder contains no saved conversations. All I see are *.BAK files and another file that probably contains a backup of my BBM contacts. When I am in an active BBM chat i see the View history link but it ONLY displays the last message not the entire previous conversation. Point is if I am saving my message history on the DEVICE then where exactly is it?
I have a blackberry curve 8520 and I would like to know how to change the conversation style. A friend of mine has the same make of blackberry as me, and when she goes into the options menu etc., she has the option conversation style. However, on my blackberry I do not have this option and it is frustrating me, seeing as we both have the same make of phone?
I tried to delete a series of messages i was recieving from a stranger but as i was deleting them from the sms screen i recieved a new text from a friend and it seems i have deleted all my messages from that friend as well as the stranger. Is there any way i can recover these messages? I would presume they are still stored somewhere on my phone,I should mention my phone is a Curve 8520 currently on v5
Just got this phone (Curve 8520) and was told it had conversation view for text.I guess it doesn't.Now I am wondering if there are any programs to get this? If so what is the best/easiest to use?
I got the Curve 8530 on Verizon... I receive a text message from a person, go to the sms icon on my home screen and click on it. My bb shows the new message with the persons's name and a preview of the text. I click on it to view it but it doesnt open the conversation. Then I'll try an older conversation and it works fine. But what is strange is that it will only continue to happen to that one contact. So ill receive a new text from someone else and i can read it with no problems.
What do you do save battery life? I always put phone in standby mode using mute key found this saves a lot and screen brightness down to 20 %. any free programs that free up ram memory like close unused programs after 5 mins of inactivity of that progra by the user
Blackberry user for 2 months...I've discoverd the standby mode and I still have to charge every night or the battery will be dead before 48 hrs has passed.
I have a BB Bold9000 (v4.6.0.147). while i'm on the phone with someone, and i have to save a phone number, is there any other way besides "Add new contact"? if i just type in the number it disappears right after the conversation is over (instead of having it on the screen after the call is over). if i type the no and click the green Call button it just disappears faster.
I am being forced by my company to get a new phone that is not a blackberry. But is there a way to save all contacts to my SIM card? Not doing one by one so that all my numbers will transfer over to my new phone. Ir is there a way to make sure all my numbers get to my new phone?
I'm a carpet cleaner. People send me emails and ask what will this or that cost. when I'm in the field I don't want to clack away a long response so I created three or four paragraphs telling about my services and send them in emails to my phone. right now they are residing in my messages folder on my desk top. I created a blank folder next to it called email messages. I want to put my info blurbs in there but don't know how to do it. then, when a prospect sends my bb a message saying how much do you charge, I can shoot them a paragraph about me and try to hook em.
can you give me a step by step how to do this? I have an 8530 curve.
For the first 2 or 3 weeks all pictures I took I could find them in Pictures. Now I either have to take the battery out in order to see them or I click on Pictures - Menu - Explore - Device Memory - home -user - pictures - and there they all are, but I can only view one picture at a time.
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.
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.
The phone says relaod software 552 but the notebook will not pick up the device. The cable is fine and i have restarted the phone numerous time so its not that either. The fact is the phone cannot be seen thus i cannot reload the soaftware. the phone is about to go across the room.
How much Device memory should I have? I have a BB 8520 with 122277261 File Free. And when I check App World it says I have 116 MB left. I'm always scared of going under 110 MB. How much device memory should you have? Is it alright if I go under 110 MB in my device memory?
I have a serious problem with my curve 8520, since yesterday, I could not start my device anymore. When I start the device, it start to boot up until maybe 75 % and then it starts all over again from 0. naturally I tried to pull the batterie out, and waited like couple of minutes but it still want works.does anyone has similar experience? any suggestion on how to solve it?
I am having problems today with my 8520 Curve. I keep receiving a message from donotreply@blackberry.com informing me that my emails are not being delivered to my device. It goes on to tell me to turn on the IMAP setting for all mail on my email account and validate my account. Having checked, my IMAP settings are correct so I re-validated my Bkackberry and, for all intents & purposes the email account is now valid. However, I then shortly receive another message exactly the same from donotreply@blackberry.com. I have gone round this cycle 3-4 times now but am still not receiving emails.

I seem not to understand but my blackberry 8520 device has stopped receiving email messages and I ve tried setting up another one yet its still not working. Username and password incorrect is what I always get as reply. Please can anyone help me out cos am seriously worried about this.
my blackberry not booting, it show red led indicator and no life.trying udpating os but it come to the stage reconnecting jvm and message appears "application loader could not connect to your device. Please reconnect your device, enter password if required, and click retry".
I own a BB for only 3 days now. I was wondering if the device was normally sold with Appworld already install? It was not on mine. I wanted to download it today, here the process:
1- Go to BB.com, send the link on my email...err: I don't have internet explorer 5 or higher on my device (can't download it for the same reason!) 2- Go to BB.com to download it on my desktop....err, I use firefox (mac), 3- open VMWare Fusion, run Internet explorer 5, crash. 4- install internet explorer 7...crash 5- Look in the application loader in the desktop manager, I can uninstall/install Appworld on my device! Do it. I still can't see in in my applications.
My device is pw protected. I schedule my quickpull to restart my phone and I gave it the pw so it can by pass that. However, it does not do that. The phone does not unlock and restart. Instead, I have to manually unlock it and it prompts me to restart. Idk what to do. I want to have phone restarted when I don't need it. As in when I wake up and hop in shower.
I am upgrade my bb8520 using bd program , but until reconnecting to jvm it come up application loader was unable connect with your device . reconect your device , enter the password , if required , and click retry . but the phone is running at the half way .
