BB Storm 9500 :: Can't Enter Numbers To Make Phone Call
Jan 23, 2010
The phone just seemed to stop taking new phone numbers, I can still call past numbers or contacts, but I just can't dial.I think this MAY have to do with the fixed number setting based on my look at the trouble shooting section.But when I follow thier directions to turn it off: I can't find anything about FDN mode to enable or disable.So i think it may not be the problem.
I'm leaving a company that said I can keep my phone (S1), but they want the number. I don't have a personal account w/Verizon yet. How can this be done? I don't know if they are planning to use the # right away, but it's associated with them.
Does anybody know how to enter a period into the custom dictionary.I am looking to add my email address to it so I dont have to type it out on web forms every time.
BB Storm 9530, when typing the numer to call, everything is ok, but when trying to call the same person from the phonebook, it's impossible. What can I do?
i have a unlocked blackberry storm for tmobile i can send and recieve texts and the internet works fine, however when i try to call it says no channel/circuit avaliable. i went to india for a few weeks and calling worked just fine there is there any way to fix this problem?
I don't know why my Blackberry shows every incoming calls as 'unknown numbers' even they are in my address book. Any helps?I have tried to fix my 'smart dialing' but it just doesn't help.
When checking voicemail, after the prompt to enter the passcode the first row of numbers are missing from one of my users new Storm2. When contacting the service provider (Verizon) the support person there said that she had swapped out a persons phone 4 times with the same result.
When in Greek Display language (not in English) and in Contacts, Phone fields, entering of an '0' number, I get displayed a highlighted 'W' instead.This of course can be stressfully corrected via a copy and pasting an '0'char else use my phone in English Display Language.
Did anyone else, in any other than Greek Display Language have that same problem?
My phone is: BB Torch 9860, OS 7.1 bundle 2061 but I had that same issue with 1149 (as bought)
Recently my e-mail accounts were hacked into through my blackberry. I've had a very simple, easy to figure out password until now. Because of these recent events, I made my e-mail password FAR more secure but I was wondering if there is a way to make my e-mail more secure on my blackberry other than changing my password?
I unlocked my 9530 and everything works great except I cant make or receive calls and so I went through the trouble shooting process from blackberry and I need to switch my active phone number and it said to click on my number on the phone screen and switch to the number I need to be there, well I try clicking on the number and nothing happens so I cant figure out what else to try.
I bought a 9530 and Unlocked it. I inserted my ATT sim card and it won't make or receive calls. I am not to worried about the data plan at this point. I just want be able to call and get calls. Am I missing something? The phone was from Verizon. I unlocked it but when I restore connections, it still says verizon wireless as the network, even with my ATT sim card installed.
Unlocked my verizon bb storm yesterday. It is now an AT&T carrier bb. It made/received calls all day.
Updated the phone via USB cable to the latest software.
Didn't notice anything was wrong today at first. Set my email up today, and it works great along with the txt messaging.
However I cannot make or receive calls. It keeps saying "Congestion". I have called AT&T and they say there is no congestion in my area and told me they can't help me because this phone isn't for at&t and blah blah blah.
I don't know what to do now. Any ideas of things I can try?
I do know that I had to make room for the update and barely had room if this means anything.....
I have a Blackberry 9500 Storm locked to Vodafone and recently bought an unlock code from Ebay to use on my Orange sim. After following the unlock procedure the phone accepted the orange sim and shows "security disabled". But I can't use the phone to make or receive calls and texts. I have checked the network settings and they are showing up orange. I have contacted the ebay seller but they just said check sim card activated - which it is.
Basically I downloaded crunchSMS and found its a lot quicker and less laggy than the default SMS program. So when I get a text now 2 icons pop up (SMS and crunchSMS) and I have to go to both to stop my phone from blinking. Is there a way to make the default stop showing up as a new message and a blinking light?
I have an unlocked Storm 9530 from Verizon Wireless. My carrier is Rogers in Canada.Since i've had the phone, most numbers from those who call me come up unknown number. Even those who are in my address book/Simcard on my phone.It's really frustrating because i'm paying for call display and such on my plan. I've already tried reloading the OS on it and that didn't work.
How do you clear the call log from the phone application. When I go to the messages folder and open call log, and do a delete prior it clears them there. But when I hit the green key to use the phone and then the middle icon for call log, they are still listed there. I know I highlight one and scroll forever but I have like 6 months or more worth! And where is it set how long to keep call log?
What is/are the reason(s) that we cannot receive emails or surf web during a call?
I would call myself on the technical side, but am just not sure of how one smartphone can do it and one cant. Not bashing RIM or my storm..and not looking to transfer over to the iphone - just interested in knowing why and if there is, or will be some BB that can offer this.
eg.. what hardware makes this achieve-able? can RIM at all add this to future BB's.
I feel it doesnt have to do anything between CDMA and GSM, I could be wrong, Im sure there are a few members on here that can help clarify.
So for a conference call the Manual says During call press Menu key Click add participant Type a phone number or high lite a contact Press the send key During the second call press the send key to join your first contact to the conference call? Real easy if you have a "Add participant" icon on the menu you can click on or if the "add participant" key is lit up on the phone home screen.
Red Hard key Won't power off, won't end a call and on the BB logo hard key no menu will open. It's like they click but actuate nothing? keys 2 and 4 of the bottom row if I've lost anyone.How can I 'fix' these keys. Worked great this am. did several battery pulls.Phone is in an OEM holster 24/7
When i miss a call on my phone , i get a little phone emblem with a x next to it, but i also get an envelope symbol as well. why is this? how can i change it to just show the phone with an x?
Since the early days appeared the notorious problem of red and green buttons that you "lock" and you can not call or close calls. Problem afflicting the Storm 2 in the world. Sent to help with a few days of life, is lying there for three weeks along with many other Storm 2 "pending rules from theBlackberry." In short, no they have not even touched and expect the Bleckberry tell them what to do. Needless to say that with the gentlemen of the Blackberry is impossible to talk!
Ok this is my situation. I have a blackberry curve from tmobile. My sister got a new phone so she gave me her blackberry storm 9350. I went to a cell phone shop around my area and they unlocked the storm so i can use it with my tmobile sim card. I put on the sim card and i thought everything was working perfect but then i found out that i have multiple problem.
The good: I can make calls, i can use the internet.
The bad: when i place a call my sister number appears in the other person phone (not my tmobile number), i cant call my voicemail, cant setup my email, cant receive calls and more problems i still havent discovered lol.
I'm looking for a way to make my own ringtones (pick song, choose section of song I want, etc.) or a site that has a ton of ringtones ready to DL for free. The ringtones section of crackberry is nice but the quality of some of the songs I want is not good.
I purchased a new Storm 2 from a Verizon subscriber.He indicated that the phone is unlocked however after putting my t-mobile sim card and trying to make a call.I receive the message that the phone cannot be authenticated.Does this mean it is still locked?T-mobile says they cannot unlock the phone.What is the best method for getting the phone unlocked?
