BB Torch :: Keep Adding Contacts Via The Berries Button?
Oct 13, 2011
But I do consider myself a bit of a technical savvy person.. however... I keep adding contacts via the berries button --- and "save" - but when I click on the CONTACT icon --- it is always empty!
I am using the BB bold 9000 and I am new to BBM - I just downloaded the new version. When I try adding contacts, they say that they receive my invitation, accept, and then I disappear from their contact list. This has been the case with at least 6 people. On my side, they never move from 'pending contacts' into 'contacts'. I deleted my BBM and reinstalled etc. but I still have the same problem.
My touch screen has been playing up for several weeks nowWhen I try to touch the main screen it will select an area to the right of where I am touching, i.e. clicking the dial pad button will actually select the contacts button, clicking 'answer' on the keypad will put the caller on hold etc etc. Other times the scren will not respon at all.
The funny thing is, when I remove the phone's plastic casing, the touch screen works fine! Similarly, if i push the top part of the case to the sides (so it is not in contact with the digitiser) the touch screen will work again until my phone goes on lock and then when I unlock it the touch screen is stuffed again.
I'm not sure if this is a software or hardware problem. On one hand its as if the plastic casing of the phone is rubbing (putting pressure on) against the side of the touchscreen and causing it to not work (hardware) while on the other hand it could be software in that the problem keeps happening everytime the screen goes to sleep (it's not initialising right).The other problem which started at the exact same time is that the green button is not working sometimes when I try to answer calls or turn off my alarm.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should try? I've already done a hard reset. The next step is to buy a new digitizer/plastic case and see if that solves the problem.
I can't Press the Keypad button and Contacts Button.and the Icon do not appear. (sorry for the bad english)I tried Re-installing the Firmware (v31)But This is always Appearing
i am a new blackberry user with a bold 9700 V5.0.0.743.I am having troubles figuring out how to add someone to my address book that has sent me a SMS.I can see their phone number on the SMS but i cannot find Add To Contacts anywhere,
I'm not sure when it started, I'll guess shortly after a small wetness issue, but I have not been able to add contacts to my blackberry for almost maybe 3-4 months now. Anytime i click on new contact my phone freezes n I have to restart it.how to solve this problem I dont want to do a full reset if i don't have to.
I cannot add or edit my contacts inmy 8520, the message says: uncaught exeption net_rim_bb_addressbook_app(286) process terminated. Some of my friends says its the OS needed to be upgraded. resolve the message - uncaught exeption net_rim_bb_addressbook_app(286) process terminated
I am trying to add a photo to one of my contacts as their display picture , but when I try to "set as contact icon" this message flashes up: "the set SIM contact icon is not supported" I have tried adding other photo's to my contacts, but I get the same message.
suppose I wish to add some info from my contacts to an sms, is there any way to do that at present, except Cut and paste.In all my earlier phones there use to be "Add text" option (Android) or "add contact info" option by which I could directly add ny email/number.name from my address book to messages.

What would be the best way to add a large number of contacts to my curve? I need to add about 50-80 contacts and put them in a group as well. Would outlook still be the best way?
Tried to add pictures to one of contacts; but the picture will disappear after a while. Is there any trick? Should I rename picture to certain wording?
i have a two year old curve 8520. Suddenly i am facing a problem. i am not able to add any new contact or edit existing contact. I have restarted my phone number of times but the problem still persists.
Currently, if someone shares a contact in WhatsApp, and you tap the contact, the 'Add to contacts' button will automatically add the contact to Phone contacts by default.Is there any way to change that so contacts from WhatsApp (or any other app in which contacts can be shared) will be saved to my Google Contacts by default?
MNew To Droid after finally giving up my beloved Blackberry. Is there a way that I can add the contacts of an email that was sent to me and 4 others without having to do each one individually?
I go through the contact list and there are addresses for people I never heard of or emailed. Then my Yahoo mail was hacked after I noticed this. It seems the phone takes all the people in my address book and does a google search or facebook search and it will actually add a photo of the person (which I do not want) and it will not let me delete these new mysterious entries?All VErizon said was I have to make sure contact sync in unchecked in the phone which is it but in Gmail there is no place to unsync contacts. I don't use Facebook, Twitter, or any other socila media site and I want my privacy protected.This is a huge issue because I had a stalker and it cost me a great deal of time and money getting restraining orders and moving from place to place while being located every time.
This is dangerous for me and the phone will not turn off my GPS or stop adding these people in my contacts that may have been on a website I visited. That's the only way I can figure this happened and the Yahoo mail got hacked at the same time.I don't know what elese to do, the phone is locked, the credential password is very hard to remember much less guess and everything is off. No GPS< no sync with anything accept the calendar via Gmail which I made sure is set to PRIVATE.My Gmail profile is also PRIVATE. If I logged in on a PC it will ask do you want to make your profile public so people can find you?
I don't see what type of FILTER I'm suppose to add in my Gmail account to stop this contact sync? Or contact list that grows and grows while I have done nothing.Weirder yet the Verizon rep said it happens when you connect the phone to a PC, that's why she said I need this filter to stop contacts from being added. But I don't have a PC anymore, it broke a few weeks ago and this incident happened last week. The phone wasn't connect to a PC for 6 weeks.Does anyone know how to make me private and stay private. I don't want any contacts added in my phone or Gmail unless I manually add them period. I don't send updates, don't want to and don't want updates from any one else.
I have upgraded from a Curve to a Torch 9850. I have had the new phone for nearly 3 weeks and noticed that occasionally the back button and menu button would not work. In the beginning it was once or twice a day but this weekend it has been an all day event. The phone is fairly useless like this. It occurs with all applications as well as text and BB messenger.
I'm trying to add birthdays to some of my contacts, but it seems impossible to go earlier than the year 1960. Is there any solution? Not everyone is younger than the age of 50, you know.
I can add/edit a birthday on a contact selecting only the month and day. **This is our preferred method**
My husband's Droid Turbo: For some reason, he is forced to enter a year and that messes with the Birthdays Calendar on his google account. Birthdays entered on his contacts do not display ever year on his calendar.
Question: How do we remove the year requirement and get his screen to look like mine?
Let's face it: we all have to deal with those automated call systems from time to time. They can be particularly annoying if they block you from connecting directly to the person you are tying to get by entering an extension number.
You can create a contact and enter in the number. Next press Sym and tap "Wait(,)" Two is the recommended amount. After pasting, type the extension. Tadah! Now you have attached an extension to a phone number.
My last phone was the pearl and it was slowly dying. A girlfriend of mine had a very new ish torch she no longer used. I have switched all the data and third party applications to the torch using the desktop manager however I can't get the app world or my e-mail working. When I log in to the App world via the computer it doesn't show the Torch as a possible device. It still has the pearl and the playbook. I need help as I believe that it thinks the torch is still the pearl and wont let me activate my e-mails or get the app world. Do I need to get rid of the Pearl on the desktop manager?
I have a Curve 8520 and a week ago I noticed I couldn't add or edit contacts on the device.I've already tried wipping and reinstalling the operating system, but it was useless.
When I got my phone, the Verizon rep helped move my 3000 contacts from my old phone to the new one.They are all there in the phone.But, they will not sync up into Outlook via MS Exchange.It WILL sync a newly added Contact, so sync is working between my phone and Outook.This works both directions, whether I create a new record on my phone or create the new record in Outlook.It just won't work with the ones loaded on the phone at the time of purchase.How tag all my original Contacts on my phone so they will flow up into Exchange/Outlook?
