BB Device Software :: Consider Correcting Errors With Newest O.S?
Jun 2, 2010
I really like my BB Bold 9700 and would love it if there were some revisions made to the operating system.I am surprised that BlackBerry has overlooked some very common and simple details for their operating systems, including their new 6.0 OS. I have included some details that I hope BB will consider implementing into their OS's immediately...
1. Phone # format should be (XXX) XXX-XXXX not all 10 numbers crammed together which makes it difficult to view. - This has got to be simplest thing to fix, right?
2. Birthdays in Calendar should show how old the person is in years...not just remind you of the birth date. (i.e., "John Smith B-Day (35))
3. Tasks notes limits the amount of characters it will hold before truncating the notes. This should be increased to hold at least as many characters as MemoPad or more! Tasks notes are truncated only after 4K characters, MemoPad notes can hold almost 30K characters!
4. Tasks should have a "Find" or "Search" option within the notes...just like MemoPad does! Why the inconsistencies between these two programs when Tasks is more important and widely used than MemoPad?
5. Tasks should keep original formatting of Outlook Tasks (i.e., Bold, Underline, Italics, Color, etc.).
6. Tasks & MemoPad should have a "Check Spelling" option.
7. When texting (SMS), if I only populate the Company field and don't have anything in the Name field, then any reply to the text will only show a phone #...it should at least show the Company Name.
8. Allow Copy & Paste option when renaming or Opening a file or viewing a bookmark name.
...can someone please reply back and confirm if any or some of these noted concerns will be considered? If not, why? These fixes would certainly make my BB experience more productive and overall more enjoyable!
9. Create/Edit email signatures from the mobile device - not have to login to your account from a PC. Or at least allow this feature to be accessed from your mobile device online.
10. Standy mode - If device is locked and you press the any button to "wake it up" from standby mode a window appears "Device is locked" and this window blocks time at the top of the phone. It needs to be lowered just a bit so you can view the time easier. - Definitely not a big deal but attention to detail to these type of things would be great.
11. Allow email folders/subfolders to be created and organized similar to Bookmarks, just like you can in Internet Explorer.

I have scoured the forums looking for an answer to this question but have not been able to locate one. I have found now, 8 runs in that the distance the MOTOACTV is showing is worsening rather than becoming more accurate. I have seen posts from other stating that they corrected the distance after their workout but I did not see details on how to do e also read to not recalibrate. That the MOTOACTV will become more accurate with time but my experience is that it is worsening. Should I recalilbrate or just manually adjust the distance once I know how to do

I use the Device Switch wizard to move and update file when I was going to change BB to a newer one. I went from a 7290 to a 8320 and when I went to use the 8320 it stared throughting multiple Uncaught Excaption: ApplicationRegistery.waitfor and Java.Lang.Error. The phone does not like to talk to the computer throuht the usb hook-up link to sync. This Phone is not going to be used for internet access through my Cellular service, wich is AT@T. The Phone was bought unlocked because I use the office features and I want to use the WI/Fi.The Phone was origionally a TMobile.The opperating System on the phone is : v4.5.0.37 Platform 2.7.0.55 The origonal Desktop softwear used was version 4.6 I believe, I now have Version 5.0 installed. I do not hve the origional software disk for the phone. I have gone through several blogs and found some problem that were close but wanted to make sure I didnt blast the phone. I would like to get this phone to function correctly so I can keep my work straight.

I've been trying without success to install the new firmware update. I've tried re-installing using the Nokia Software Updater, but kept getting Device Recovery errors and the phone turned off and lost its connection. After reading other posts, I did a soft reset on my phone then re-installed the firmware without anymore However, now the phone WON'T TURN ON AT ALL! When I press and hold the Power On/Off button on the top, it makes a buzzing sound, but the screen stays dark and doesn't turn on. Before you ask, the phone battery was fully charged. My 58000 is totally unusuable. How do I get it to power on?

OK, I'm new to the phone and I can't find the setting which will bring the newest text message to the top of the list. So far I've hunted through the menus with no joy.
Coming from a Samsung I'm not used to hunting through texts to find one that I've just received.

Since going to the APPLE store and being told yesterday that the 50.1 update was the best update ever and trusting an APPLE employee.I've had nothing but problems, my iPhone's battery drains faster. Turning brightness low, turning everything off. The battery still drained.I came into the store today; low and behold I got my phone restored, didn't help. Do you think there's ANY possible way I can replace my phone to one that doesn't have the newest update?

If you get it an apple store, I know they activate it for you there. Assuming all the models have 4.0 or 4.01 on it, do they update it to the newest firmware for you there? I only ask because my upgrade availability finally got taken care of, and i wanna pick up another ip4 (which of course I don't want them to so I can jb). My last IP4, I had delivered at home, so I could do what I want. I just don't know what the in store process was.

When I try to use Ovi Suite's own software updating feature, it can't download the update completely but after 16M/16M informs me about server/firewall problems. I alternatively tried to use my web browser with star downloader and after downloading everything it tries to catch file info from Nokia but then the connection is dropped. I had the same problem with PC Suite, so problem is probably how my computer and Nokia support site discuss together. But is the solution (as Nokia support QA suggest) to drop your virus software and firewall down. For me that sounds quite strange. Any help?

I would like to restore my jailbroken phone to normal, then re-jailbreak to get rid of a bunch of crap on it. When I click on restore from itunes, it says it will update my software to the newest version, 3.1.3 which I do not want. I want to stay on 3.1.2 so my phone is still able to be unlocked.Anyone know how to get around that, as in restore to factory without having itunes download and install 3.1.3?

I have followed these steps: Generated CDA. Nordic language! Then followed these steps! Upload "customize_upgrade.xml" to your phone and make the CDA change. So you have generated the file and you want to get on with it? Well I'll make this as short as possible.
1. Open A2uploader.
2. Click "FileSystem Tool". Re-insert the battery of your phone then connect your USB holding '2+5' keys. Release keys '2+5' when A2uploader detects your phone.
3. Browse to "/tpa/preset/custom/". Drag and drop the "customize_upgrade.xml" file to the right pane of A2uploader.
4. Click "Shutdown FS Manager".
5. Disconnect USB cable and turn on phone. You will notice a "Please Wait" prompt. This is when the CDA is changing. When the prompt is gone, turn off your phone.
But SEUS cannot find any new firmware still? What revision should the the Customize upgrade be?

As I was updating my N900 to the newest firmware, my computer crashed (not because of the install, I was running other hardware intencive programs.) and I'm 100% sure it wasn't finished installing the firmware when it had crashed.
But when my computer crashed the phone seemed to running normally and when it was finished installing it worked fine. Is it possible that it didn't finish?Either way just to be on the safe side, how do I reinstall the update to be 100%?

New Sony Ericsson software is now available for your phone. Update your software to get the latest features and corrections, and to keep your phone in the best possible condition.When the new software is available, you may receive a message in the notification bar of your phone. The easiest way to get the new software is to accept this update.
