My problem is I want to update my Blackberry OS version 4.2.1 to 4.5. Everyplace I try (T-Mobile & Blackberry.com) says I have the most current version. I have been searching the net and working on this for 4 days with no luck.
View 1 RepliesI have an oldish 8800 unlocked, that was a used in Australia (Telstra). I have bought with me to Malawi, and put in an Airtel SIM and subscribed to BB here. Current device s/w is 4.2, and I am trying to upgrade to 4.5, however via the Web (BB site) I get "no updates available". Using a freshly downloaded BB Desktop Software, it tells me a 4.5 Bundle is available, but just after initiating, I get "There was an error updating your software. Please try again".
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently tried to upgrade my Blackberry 8800 4.2 to 4.5. The upgrade was completed but the phone went off as soon as I finished, and would not come on. I took it to a phone shop and they were able to put it back on. BUT, it just goes off, reboots and on by itself intermittently, and this has gone on for three days now. What do I do to make my phone function properly?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI bought a real 8800 original a while back and decided to upgrade. I got online the 8800 carbon arte, but when I got it in I realized it is a fake (a nice fake, but a fake).Now I'm not sure if I should keep it and sell my old 8800, or send back the 8800 carbon fake? I cant afford a new carbon as they are well over 1grand.
features on the fake seem to be all except no pc suite option (USB gives me com port, mass storage, webcam) and no touch option. Im also assuming that the screen isnt durable.Other than that, the firmware seems to be the same (from what I gathered online)What would you do? Keep the original 8800, or use the newer 8800 carbon fake?
I just bought a BB 8820 unlocked, it's made on Hungary and it shows on the screen a battery with a red line crossed, I know what the symbol means BUT the battery is OK, it's the right model C-X2 and I already tried it on a different phone and it's working fine. PLUS, the desktop manager cannot connect to the device,the application loader neater. I download the 4.2.2 device software and had the VENDOR file erased too, I start running the "loader" from C:Program FilesCommon FilesResearch In MotionAppLoader. and it loads the JVM and system software but when it is initializing the device I get the connection error and that's it. FROZEN AGAIN. The screen with the crossed battery is the only one I'm able to see.I try to replace the USB cable and the soft reset too with no results.What can I do, help me please!

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've updated my BB8800 to the latest v.4.5.0.174 and now I want to configure the email, but I have not email configuration settings. At the "email setup" in setup wizard there is only a email account with enterprise server and there is no settings to change. My operator doesn't support the mail configuration automatically, so I have to put them by myself (POP, SMTP, etc).

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just got a used 8800 (Cingular) ver 4.5. The phone was wiped and I was able to set my own password. But I'd rather not have it lock at all.The help file indicated that PASSWORD could be disabled, but that does not work for me. I'm looking at Options > Security Options > General Setting.There's a password ENABLED field, but I can't change it, there is a little teeny tiny red lock icon next to the field.
I changed the security timeout to 30, and that helps.
Can anyone tell me how to disable the password lock?
I have been using gmail for about 3 years, and I setup gmail to forward emails to my BB 8800, this has all been working fine for 2 years, in the last 3 or 4 weeks emails that I have been sending from my computer at home (using gmail ) have been sent to friends etc, and I also get a copy on my 8800
when somebody replies to my email, I see the message without any problems on my laptop when logged into my gmail account, but now when I look on my 8800, the message displays for 1 second and then disappears, if I press the BB button ( to the left of the trackball ) , and select from the menu "Get Plain Text" , BB displays the dialogue message "Receiving More" and the text comes back surely I should not have to do this when using a gmail account
only emails that I have kicked off using gmail are affected, all other emails that I receive from other people are fine ! NB I have plenty of "Free Space" 31559744 bytes
I have the latest software, I have security wiped the 8800 a number of times, I have removed the battery a number of times, all these things I have been told to do by my carrier "Orange UK" , all to no avail, so I have to resort to the internet, and boards like this
I found 2 datacables, but I canīt figure out which fits my Nokia, which looks like this: http://www.mobile-reviews.de/8800SI/Geraet/images/IMGP3590.jpg
Or do these cables connect to the phone instead of the battirie?
Iīm using the newest PC Suite under Win 7 32 bit, and a Nokia 8800.Up to now the WIn 7 BT driver was installed and worked for month.Since a couple of weeks I donīt get an automated sync. Sync starts, and ends with the error "check if device is connected".
The device IS connected, I can see my messages and calendar in PC Suite, PC Suite and the round connection symbol are green.Now I tried to install the latest Belkin BT Broadcom Widcomm driver (I used an older widcom last year under XP!).this one does not show up in the connection manager. There I only find the Microsoft.
I cannot imagine that my BB 8800 with the BB desktop 5.0.1. and the device frim ware 4.5.0.174 isn't able to sync the MS outlook 2007 categories with the BB canlendar. Where is the trick? I'm sure that there is a RIM solution.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to set up my Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte to get my email automatically. I set up the mailbox and automatic retrieval but unfortunately the phone will not retrieve emails unless it is manually connected to mailbox and when it is it drops connection every 20-35 minutes. I have the mailbox update interval set to 6 hours but it won't retrieve them unless the connection to mailbox is active. Am I able to use this phone to get my email as on iPhone managing the connection itself?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI decided to upgrade my phone to the 2.1 upgrade. I was tired of getting the run around from AT&T about when this would get updated and now I see 2.3 is coming out and there is still no update info from AT&T. Well I ran into a problem. First of all I didn't backup the phone before I ran the flash (idiot mistake) I ran the flash and everything seemed fine until it rebooted. Got the camera and the little arrow waited for that to go thru and the phone now keeps restarting itself.
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy phone reminds me that I need a software upgrade, and every time I go to upgrade it, it never completes. I have upgraded the PC Companion to the latest version, then I have my phone plugged in, go to upgrade it, it will "Prepare" it, but before the update, when you have to unplug your phone, turn it off, and plug it back it, the update doesn't continue!
