BB Storm2 9550/9520 :: E-Books On 9520 / Cannot Find File After Load
Feb 28, 2010
When I put my micro Sd card into my PC I see there is a file within Blacberry marked "E-Books", however if I put any e-books into that file and put the card back into my Blackberry, I cannot no longer find that file in the various icons on the screen to even try and read the e-books.
The native browser on my 9550 won't load anything...not my home page...NOTHING! I open up the browser and the blue progress bar along the bottom of the screen just creeps and creeps for hours (blank white screen). The only thing I have changed is I downloaded the Reuters app around the same time the problem started.
Need to occasionally refer to about 500 Microsoft Word documents and now that I have the Storm 2, is there a good app at the Crackberry store that can organize the document files for easy selection?
Presently using Documents to Go but if anyone can suggest another app on the Crackberry store that can do better, I would like to know. I don't need to edit, just need to be able to read the documents easily.
I have scrolled through the forums reading about both these phones and i have a few questions
1.What i am still unsure of is which phone is better suited to Canadian phone companies neither will get 3g coverage but will one work better than the other like will they both get 2.5g coverage?
2. Also i have read that possibly the 9520 will be comin to rogers but i havnt heard anything recent on it does anyone have news on a release date or anything?
3. Right now i am thinkin of buyin the storm 9550 from telus and either goin with fido or terminate my contract with them and stay with telus or move to rogers. Is there a company that is better suited to the storm 2 or will either giv me 2.5g?
Im trying to download an ota link directly from my phone, the result is .jad file and when i tried to install the .jad file, its failed. said that there's no .cod file. how can i resolve this?

I guinea pigged this, and can confirm it works...partially !!! Install .451, replace java folder with .497, then copy and paste .484 java over that... (NOTE: you may experience an app error reset, just let it reboot and you should be fine!)
How did you guys get the Opera Mini install file? Did you use the generic installer? Or one specific for the Storm 2? They don't list any of the 95xx models on their site.
There are some mobile launchers in a back up file from my days of using a BB 8320.The launchers are no longer available from the respective web sites, for whatever reason.The mobile sites are still running, just the launchers are no longer offered. I have looked at various master list of mobile launchers and what I seek is not there either.So is there a way to extract these applications/modules out of my old back up files?
Im looking for a wallet for my storm2! Im finding it impossible.All I want is one that will hold the device one side that has a magnet that will put it into sleep mode. On the other side I want a wallet that will hold a few cards and abit of cash. It can be in book form at a push, but card holder with a note bit would be good, its hard to explain but i hope you get my jist!
Does anyone know if there is a shortcut to change my Blackberry 9520 profiles? I want a quick button that puts my phone onto silent. I've owned a Blackberry Bold 9000 before and it has it's own dedicated silent key. Is there such key/shortcut for Storm2 9520?
I've been thinking of getting a Blackberry for quite some time now and decided to get the storm2 due to it's larger screen.I m located in Canada and using Fido (or Rogers). So I could get either one right? But why do I hear some rumors that 9550 is not so good on GSM as the 9520? Should I get 9550 or 9520? I wont be using the CDMA at all, but it seems that I could get 9550 a lot easier than 9520 in Canada.
For those checking to see if the 713 java works, the answer is yes. A raw drop of the .713 java on the 607 radio does work. No crashes yet but I'll let you know.
I'm looking at getting my wife a S2 as she doesn't like other BB's (she currently uses a 8220). We are on T-Mobile here in the Twin Cities (MN) and wanted to know if anyone here has used a S2 on the TMO network here locally. I know 3G won't work on it, which isn't a big deal since she's not a big downloader.How's the network coverage? Any weirdness to the phone at all? I'll be selling my 8900 and possibly her 8220 (it's pretty hacked) after we buy this one so I want to make sure this phone works for her.
The search function isnt finding any recurring events I have synced from Outlook. When I go to the Calendar they are there. I've put the event in Name and/or text field, nothing seems to work. It will find events that have only one occurance, but not any of my birthdays. Any thoughts, another .607 issue?
I suppose no one has yet tried to load the java from .741 (9520) with the 713 radio for the 9550 yet. If someone gets to this before I do, please post your findings (most importantly the issue with making and ending phone calls on the previous radio versions not functioning properly). Once I get to work, I'll load it up and let you know my findings if no one has done it yet. It'll be several hours though.
I am thinking of buying a used BlackBerry Storm. I originally was just going to buy one and use it on Page Plus Cellular, but with what is going on with Page Plus Cellular I am now wondering if I should just use this in T-Mobile prepaid. Does this need to be unlocked to use it on GSM in the US?
I am wondering if it is possible to install an OS designed for the 9520 on to the 9550. I need to do this in order to have Chinese input (unless someone else knows a way to do this?) enabled on my 9550.
