BB Torch :: Set Up Password Using The Touchscreen While Using The "maximized Mode"?
May 9, 2011
- I set up my password using the touchscreen while using the "maximized mode" (which combines numbers with letters). Not knowing the exact password but I knew which sequence on that screen it was)- Now my problem is that I put the touchscreen back in "normal mode" and didn't know how to put it back in the maximized mode. In this screen my passwordsequence is not correct and now i have only 1 try left before.........I really would not like to erase all my data due to 10 wrong passwords. Therefore I h For instance with a screenprint of the "maximized touchscreen" for entering data
So I am trying to find out more info on what technology of touch screen the 9800 will have. The main reason being that i played with the Droid Incredible and the I-Phone 4 and the touchscreen on the I-phone is so perfectly responsive. The Droid felt like crap to me, so all I could dig up for the 9800 was that it is a TFT touchscreen. Does anyone know what that means and what kind of performance to expect?
i bought a new housing for my phone and followed directions exactly but now that my phone is reassembled my touchscreen is not woking and when i make a call they can hear me but i don't hear them any suggestions
I am using the 9800 torch which is rom and software updated. Suddenly my touchscreen doesn't work and I have to use the joystick. The screen works for few min every day and that's all and when the slider is open it wont work no matter what...
I have been keeping recommending iPhone 4 to my girlfriend, who is going to get her Master degree from Columbia Univ and step into business world. And she said, "wow, it looks wonderful but too naive/childish for me".
And then I bought her the iPod Touch, just for casual use. (I would make Torch a great surprise since she always wants a Blackberry. Samsung sucks btw, we have had 3 Samsung phones and they are all crap - hardware-wise).
I love iPhone, but I could not live without a keyboard phone. Sorry Droid and iPhone fanboys, touchscreen just sucks for business users/ users mainly do texing and little cell-photo-taking.
If you are not a college boy, and you are a real businessman, I bet you would be as busy as me so 40% of your time is for emails/texting/notepad/calendar, 30% for phone calls, 20% or less for web browsing, and 10% for enjoying music when driving (or on subways while reading newspapers) and other multimedia functions.
And seriously, I only use my phone to take pictures of notes on whiteboard or product labels when I don't have a camera at hand. And if you really like taking photos, DSLR would do you good.
Do you really need a 800x600 display for texting?phone calls?. And how much do you rely on web browsing by cell phone? It's just for checking some information when you are outside.
Let's see what Torch does best from all kinds of reviews: Gizmo, Engadget, BGR, Crackberry.... 1). Top notch keyboard - good for 40% of time texting/emails/notepad/calendar 2). Great call quality - good for another 30% of time, and no drop calls/death grips 3). WebKit Browser - enough for 20% of time web browsing - after all we all own laptops (you don't have one?) 4). Improved media experience - I am ok with just listening to music. I seldom watch videos on handheld devices - only nerds do it often.
Hence, the bottom line: is there any other good keyboard phone out there? (with a touch screen and not as ugly/huge as Droid)?
=) CPU is fine, Screen resolution is fine (I am really ok with texting and managing my business life with Bold's screen resolution). After all, do you really spend 80% of your time on cell phone while you have friends and can do all the things on a computer?
I thought originally when purchasing the Torch that I would probably use the touchscreen 99.9% of the time...but I seem to be using the slide out QWERTY keyboard more often than not! So, which keyboard do you prefer?
I'm on my second Torch in 3 days. My touch screen stops working. my second phone is now having the same issue after 8hrs of having it. I have tried removing my protective privacy screen and still no dice. Is anyone else having this issue. I love the phone, but am thinking of switching to the Bold or iPhone since I have not had a reliable phone yet.
The buttons won't work! None of them! Sometimes the one in the middle (navigator one!) that works going from side to side up and down but wont select anything and the rest just don't work!
How can I lock the touchscreen of my BlackBerry torch 9800? I know the key for it, but I wonder if there is a possibility for automatic locking the touchscrren when I close the BlackBerry?
My torch is 3 months old. As of Sunday morning the track pad and touchscreen has become unresponsive. It also crashing every once in a while for no appearent reason. It has not been dropped or exposed to water. So far I've tried battery pulls and a restore through the desktop manager. Which has obviously not fixed anything.
this is my 2nd Torch my first Torch touchscreen stoppeed working and ATT sent me another.now this Torch touchscreen stopped working, so far I did a reboot hard and soft now I may do a factory reset or downgrade..
Im beginning to think Torch is junk..Seen God 7/11/1995. I met Satan 6/2008 and in 2009... I was c r u c i f i e d by Spirits..
Since this morning i experience the problem that when i switch my phone on i cannot use the touchscreen. No input is accepted. When i switch the phone off and remove the battery and then switch it on the problem dissapears...
I recently installed the new blackberry update...and since then my touch screen refuses to work - so I cant enter the pin to unlock the phone - and when I slide the screen up - the screen goes black and the phone goes off!
I have a Blackberry Torch and I have found that the touchscreen has started to react slowly. Sometimes I have to lock and unlock the screen before it will react at all.
Every single solitary call, sometimes multiple times, my cheek brushes near the screen and I put the caller on hold without realising it. It's enough to make me not want to use the phone for talking it's so constant. Yes I have a screen protector.Surely there is a software update now that freezes the screen?
I have recently upgraded my phone to the updated OS 7.0 Bundle 2406. My touchscreen occassionally freezes and does not respond for sometimes 15 minutes at a time. I do not recall if my touchscreen used to freeze before the update. However, I have tried downgrading back to the old OS and this does not work. Very often the touch screen seems to freeze after disconnecting from the USB cable connection to the PC or the bluetooth I use in my car
After upgrading to os 7.1.0.163 my password keeper application does not recognize my password. I am on 7 /10 unsuccessful tries before I assume I get eternally locked out and the data lost.
I'm going through the options on my torch and cant seem to find one to enable a clicking sound when typing on the touchscreen (such as the droids and iphones make the clicky noise when your type) ...does it exist?
I am having issues with the keys not working properly on the touchscreen keyboard. When the phone is in portrait and I press on a key what shows up is the key at the left end of that row ex: if I press L an A shows up on the screen, if I press U I get a Q. If I turn the phone so that the keyboard is now on the same side as the USB port I only get whatever buttons are on the bottom of the screen. If I turn it 180 degress none of the keys work.
I have also noticed this happening in applications like Google Latitude. If I press any of the icons on the bottm of the screen the only one that registers is the zoom out key.
If I do a battery pull things work well for a bit and then it starts acting up again.
I haven't seen anyone else posting about this and I am hoping that it is just this phone. I am exchanging it tonight.
I just got the BB Torch 9800. It's my first touchscreen phone, so I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.While I'm on a phone call, the following buttons automatically appear on the touchscreen: Mute, Hold, Speaker Phone, and Add Recipient. I have yet to complete a phone conversation without hitting one of these buttons with my cheek. I cannot for the life of me find a way in Options to stop these buttons from appearing during phone calls.I am actually considering returning the phone over this.
I have only had my samsung for a week. I am an iphone convert. In getting to know my phone I set up a pw for the private mode. I moved a few photos into the private folder and when the phone shut off private mode did as well. Now I cannot remember my password and there is no fingerprint backup.
Samsung supports response Keep trying paswords. I realize I should have written it down, but I was slightly overwhelmed moving to android. There has to be a way to retrieve.
So everytime i connect my phone with my PC a message appears on my screen about needing the phones Mass Storage Mode Password but i never had any password for it? This is my first time doing this so Im sure i never put in a password how do i reset this or how can i figure out my password?
I am having galaxy s5. Iforget the pin n password of kids mode app n m having most important data in phone if i try to reset the phone surely. I'll loose my data ...
