My mobile phone has been stolen yesterday. I heard that I can destroy the important info, data and personal pics. Also the thief can't use it. I have the original box and all the numbers including the serial and bb one.
View 9 RepliesI had a Blackberry Curve 8520 that was stolen yesterday. My service provider told me that they will only be able to shut down the line, nothing else. Is there a way to disable the phone? It would be nice if I could make sure no one can even turn it on, or at least make sure it can no longer be used on any service provider.

I don't really want to accidently press 3G and 2G etc is there a way to disable it? I am on monthly contract and have an option where it costs me 30p to use internet if I go onto it, but thats for the entire day. Also, I have the most recent ovi maps and I set it to offline mode, and tried to download some voices. It said, connect to internet? And I pressed yes and it downloaded them. Would it have used 3g/2g or my WLAN?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to completely disable the vibrate function on my Milestone 2, with zero luck. Basically I don't want the phone to vibrate under any circumstances, especially when getting calls/SMSs.
I tried disabling Settings --> Sounds --> Vibrate (set to never), but it still vibrates when I get a call or SMS (in silent mode and not in silent mode).
I find the vibration on this phone stupidly intense and loud; this is why I want to completely disable it.
I found settings to prevent incoming calls from being answered (call barring) but I don't know how to disable roaming.
I want to disable roaming and restrict my networks to WCDMA type only.
Yesterday my power button died, but I was able to turn on my N5 somehow. after, I've enabled the double tap to sleep on the statusbar and on the lockscreen and volume buttons now wake the device, but I wasn't able to remap the power button and if I accidentaly press it, I don't know what will happen.
So, there's any method to completely disable the power button? I've tried with gravity box but there isn't any option to do this. How to disable the power button from the .kl files in system/usr/keylaout? And then, can I use the volume buttons to turn on the device when it's off or I have to keep it on forever?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI recently had my Bold 9900 stolen/lost, although I have now purchased a replacement 9900 I want to try and track down my old one as it is not a cheap device. I still have all of the packaging of my first phone so therefore the IMEI / PIN etc. I have reported this to my provider (China Mobile) and I have a new account setup on my new device.I have sent a bbm request to my old phone hoping to get some contact but my joy, I am asking friends who have my old PIN as a bbm contact to try the new 'owner' as well. Is there any way I can find the mobile number of whoever is using my old phone so I can ring them? (I understand it may have been sold on but has only been 3 days since it was stolen/lost) or tracking the device? (I did not have any tracking software on the device at the time it was stolen).

I can track my phone and lodge a complaint in the police station but for tracking it I need an imei number. I looked in the devices panel and found out that I didn't have a backup of it.

I had my phone stolen in December and it has since been recovered, despite its 3 weeks spent in a wet ditch the phone still turns on and appears to work. My problem is that I contacted my service provider O2 and requested that they unlock the handset so I can use it again. I was told by them that once a Blackberry handset has been reported stolen and blocked then it can never be used again.Can someone verify this as, if this is correct I would of never of blocked the phone in the first place if there was a slim chance of it being returned. So my lovely blackberry torch is currently a very expensive paperweight.

When I first got it I tried to setup the email account but for some reason my email address was already there, it said all I have to do is type in my password, so I did. But it keeps saying 'Sorry, unable to continue your session. Try again later'. How do I get my email to work? Or how do I delete the email completely and start again?

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I plugged my phone into the computer to charge, an update came up on bb desktop manager - to update to the 6.0 Bundle 2467 - and I began the update. After a few minutes I realized that I should back up my phone before updating but bb desktop wouldn't let me - it said that IT needed to update. So the device software update paused until the desktop update was complete. When it was finished, the device update continued...and I didn't backup.
Somewhere in the middle of the update (after about a half hour) the phone blinked, there was a funny "beep" and a message came up that the update could not continue. The phone had rebooted but was stuck at about 65%. I let it sit for a few minutes, still not moving. Pulled the battery, let it sit for a few minutes like that and re-inserted. Started to reboot, then stalled again at the same spot. Pulled the battery after another few minutes and waited about 15 minutes.
When I put the battery back in, the phone quickly booted up completely...but because the updater stalled mid-update Everything is lost! Contacts, Calendar, Memos. Is there any way at all to recover anything?? Or is all my data lost somewhere in cyberspace? There is a small file, about 5MB called Blackberry Contacts so I thought I could sync the files from there, but I don't know how!
I had my torch 9800 almost a year now and I woke up saturday morning to find it completely off and it was on charge all night, I've tried taking the battery out and putting it back in. I've also had the battery out for 24 hours and when I put it back in the red light comes on for about 20 seconds (steady not flashing) and the goes off but that's only happened the once other than that I've had no luck. I've left it on charge tried a different battery and it still doesn't work. I've also put by battery in another torch and it works fine.
