BB Curve :: WiFi Blocked On 8520 - Does Not Work Anymore
Oct 26, 2012
The wifi on my blackberry curve 8520 doesn't work any more. It says it's connected, but I can't go online. I have send it to t-mobile, they send it to blackberry , multiple times, but they can't fix it. Now they say that blackberry blocked wifi and you can only go online when you pay for it. Is this true??
First I bought a new laptop and got on that day a new router. With the WiFi Music Sync was okay until last night. Suddenly I was able to sync any data. The iTunes playlists are no longer displayed in the BlackBerry Media Player and my BlackBerry can not longer connect to WiFi Desktop Manager. It is only through the USB connection. But after the USB connection is missing, as I said, the playlists. If I delete the WiFi application on my BlackBerry, I see now the playlists. I use the Desktop Manager 6.0, as the Speedport 722V router, a torch with the software 6.0.0.448
I found a Blackberry Curve 8520. I would like to return it to the owner, but the phone has been deactivated and blocked. Is there any way that I can find out who the owner is?
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?
BBM barcode scanner doesn't work anymore , and i've downloaded a barcode scanner like QR Scanner Pro and Barcode scanner from app world and it doesn't work either, it was working fine month ago, i have no idea what happened to it
I updated my Blackberry 8900 Curve over the weekend to v5.0.0.1036(Platform 5.2.0.104) Provider is [URL] This updated was offered when connecting my device to BlackBerry Desktop Application.
After this update successfully took place I discovered the problem that the upper top right button (usually used to mute) does not send my device to standby anymore when being pressed longer than 3 seconds. This function worked perfectly prior to this update. Unfortunately I did not know on what version I was before, but as I`m doing updates on a more of less regular base I assume it was the prior available one.
Together with this problem I discovered something that is also working different than before. When I press the keyboard lock button (upper top left button) the lock now gets activated directly and the screen turns black. Before this update took place the owner details were showing up when pressing this button and the screen turns dark after the defined time to go off. The owner details are added correctly and show up when going to properties-owner.
I did a secure delete (security options - security delete) of the device and started from scratch twice already, but the problem remains the same.
Is there any way to get at least the standby working again. I´m using an case-mate holster with build in battery allow me to recharge my BB when no power plug is avail. Unfortunately this one does not have a magnet that send the device to standby automatically when plugged into the holster, so this manual standby option is important for me to extend battery life.
I have no data plan but I use to could go to star bucks and use wifi. But recently for some reason it says I am connected to the hot spot but I can't use the the internet at all and it's really bugging
I just got a new Blackberry Curve 8520 a couple of weeks ago and blackberry messenger has never worked. Regardless of whether I add someone else's pin or they try adding mine, the contact is always under pending. Also if I try sending a message to a pin on BBM it does not send, I just get the red cross. So yeah basically I can't add or recieve requests for contacts and I can't send messages either.
I got a samsung galaxy ace and i decided that I should switch to a blackberry. So i took my Mum's blackberry curve and switched the Sim's around. Everything is fine except i Can't Facebook bbm or anything else outside my Wifi.
I am using a Blackberry Curve 8520 phone. I can send-receive phone calls, i can send-receive SMS messages and I can surf the internet.However, I cannot find an option to configure the Email I only get the option of The Blackberry Enterprise Office setup. My provider is in Spain and is called www.HITSMOBILE.ES.I contacted them and they said it was an issue with Blackberry not them!I cannot configure the email setup, that i can receive Blackberry Update email messages only!
my blackberry curve 8520's Touchpad will not move around the screen but will click. My problem is in all the rest of the forums they say that you need to unscrew the back of the pad but I can't as the screws on the back are all worn, had it quite a while you see.
Every keys of my curve 8520 don't work. I have tried many times to remove the battery but it is always the same, the phone start and ask my PIN but i can't log in because all the keys don't work! Even those witch are above. I have tried the safe mode but it doesn't work (because i think the key don't work)...
I have a Blackberry Curve 8520 and the trackpad won't work. I can select the item it is on and I can access the menu but other than that, I can't do anything else due to the fact that the trackpad doesn't work
I am having a problem with my BB 8520. The touchpad in the middle of the phone is not allowing me to move it to other icon's, so it is stuck on the Envelope (e-mail) folder and will only open the last e-mail. It will not allow me to view, send or receive anything else Have tried cleaning it as per the view someone kindly posted me, but no luck. I have tried rebooting and also removing battery, but again, no luck! don't really want to have to go out and buy a new BB as I only got this one in January!!
I've had my phone for about a month now and my "P" button is... Having some problems. It still works but its hard as rock to the touch. It doesn't click down like the rest of the buttons. I have a few scratches on the phone on the back piece and such. So does RIM cover this? I'm going to call tomorrow I was just wondering if anyones had any hardware problems and was able to get new phone sucessfully.
Checked properties and it says unavailable. Just a black screen with sprint logo appears.Any clue how to update this app?Is there a better app out there for tv?
I've had my 8520 for quite a while now and only just started trying to use BBM although people don't recieve my requests and I don;t receive theres. I have internet, both WiFi and pay monthly. So I was wondering if I have to set it up somehow?
I am also not able to check in on facebook places. This is a work phone and my colleague who has exactly the same Curve 8520 IS able to check in on facebook places with no problem at all. I do not believe that this is a "GPS" issue. I paired my husbands Torch 9800 to my curve via bluetooth and it now allows me to set location setting to the ON position but still am not able to check in.
I have just set up a new netgear Virgin Media VMD G280 Hub for their 20mg broad band service. My three computers have connected to the Hub with no problem, two hard wired a the laptop using the wireless side of the Hub. My granddaughter cannot connected to the VMD G280 Hub with her Blackberry 8520 phone, we have tried several ways but the phone shows its connected but nothing happens. She had no trouble connecting to the Netgear Wireless G router WGR 614 that the hub replaced so has anyone got any Ideas of whats wrong?
I have the Blackberry curve 8520,Its all set up with the internet package,has been for 2 months. I topped up,the £5 has come out but the internet wont work?
I have read some of the other posts related to this issue and I seem to be running into a wall. I just bought a "new" unlocked curve from amazon. I get it and the track pad doesn't scroll. I can still use it to click on an icon but I just can move it. I work in Afghanistan and I can't mail stuff outta the base i work at. Oh and i put "new" in quotes for the fact that when i started it up I got a Tmobile message.
