Ok I have noticed that on the Torch the text tone is the same for everyone even if you assign a ringtone and tone for message for a contact. Before on the 9700 when you received a text, e-mail whatever tone was assigned to that contact came through. I guess that feature is gone.
View 14 RepliesWhen I edit a contact to assign it a ringtone or text tone, I get a different list than the sounds in the Notification center. It shows far fewer ringtones, and it doesn't even show me any text tones.
This is what the notification list looks like, and it has all the sounds- alarms, ringtones and text tones:
This is what I see when I edit a contact. Not only does it look like crap, it doesn't even contain any text tones when I select "+Text tone":
The two lists are different! Why I can't pick the same sounds for contacts?
I have two questions:
1) I can't seem to figure out how to set text message tones for each individual contact for my 8520? Is this possible? (I have the T-mobile 8520 Curve if that makes a difference?)
2) How do I update my operating system for my 8520, from the T-mobile network?
It doesnt work...... I assign a pic of the contact and a tone but when they ring me the pic shows but the tone is set to a default which is the nokia original tone and not even a tone ive chosen, ive updated the software and its still the same.

(one frriend of mine sent the bb to the support and it come back after 2 month still not working) any number to contact? or any person who wnat to buy my torch?
I can't synch my contact list with outlook using BB desktop software. This seems to have happened after recent software upgrade. When I scroll the Synch options contact and calendar are missing. When I go to Device and Advance Settings and Default Services only my webmail accounts are shown and none of my outlook email accounts. How can I get back to synching with my outlook folder?
View 2 Replies View RelatedNew torch bought in Australia adds the No. 86 to the start of each of my contacts numbers when I call/message them. So the contact number 04xx yyy zzz becomes 864xx yyy zzz. Being Chinas' country code I am guessing my phone originated in China???? How do I stop the phone from adding the prefix??
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to transfer all of my contacts from from an older torch 9800 to a new torch 9800 but only a portion of the contacts are being copied. I have tried backup-restore via desktop software etc... but it's not copying the complete list. Tried to do it at AT&T store but that just duplicated the 425 contacts that I all ready had. After I manually deleted all of the duplicates....Tried again to no avail.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWe have a contact list in html format in our organization. The contact list is displayed by the BB browser. The emails and phone numbers in this list work fine for other models we have (9650,etc.) But users with new BB Torch 9800 can not click on the phone numbers or emails any more. Our provider is ATT. The OS I believe is 6.0.0.246.

View 11 Replies View RelatedI recently got the Torch 9800 and was wondering if there is a way to send a mass text out.I've already created a group in my contacts which contains about 200 members, when I try to send a text out to the group I get a message saying I can only text 10 ppl at a time.Previous BB versions didn't have this limitation, why regress? My Nokia E71 did it just fine as well on at&t.I assume it's a limitation imposed by at&t; if I were to have the phone unlocked, would it remove this limitation?Is there any way I can work around this "flaw"?Plz help, I'm addicted to this dam phone now and would hate to give it up.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI haven't found a resolution to my missing text message icon on my BB Torch. It was there a few days ago but it has since disappeared. I read and tried a few things. It doesn't even show up in the menu (device/delete data) after I sync'd. I do receive messages but without notification. Also the character length is only 28 per message (incoming). Outgoing is OK. Contacts are all there.the SMS in the menu there is ticked. Also I do not receive FaceBook notifications.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI had this problem on my prior 9700. What happens is when I open up an unread text message it always doesn't show that text on the screen. Instead it brings me to a random part of the conversation(although it is usually the same part over and over). This is very small, but very annoying indeed. I was wondering if there was anything I could do to fix this issue
View 5 Replies View RelatedI really like the torch, but I've looked all over the settings for a fix to this:
When I open up an SMS conversation, it doesn't always open to the most recent entry, even if I was on the most recent before closing the conversation. I then have to attempt the tricky "flick the track pad up just enough to get to the bottom without actually putting the cursor in the message" maneuver just to get to the bottom.
I was told that when you send a text message with the the Torch it puts a check by the message when it sends and that it will place and "R" beside the message when the other person opens the the text. Can anyone tell me how to turn that option on?
