BB Software :: Required With Upgrading To OS5 On 8520?
Aug 23, 2010
I'm using an unlocked version of the bb curve 8520 and want to upgrade my bb device os to v5.0. (current version- 4.6.1)I tried using the application loader on the bb website (NA & India both) but it just tells me that my OS is updated and that i will be notified if there are any updates available.
My BB curve 8520 ringtone stopped working after upgrading the phone from os 4.6 to 5.0. I don't want to pull out battery every time in order to make it work for a while. I need a permanent solution other than going back to os 4.6.
I recently upgraded 8520 handset to device software vers 5.0 - everything fine except that the icon I use the most - "Keyboard Lock" icon has disappeared. Looked all over - hidden icons etc - no luck.
I'm gettin sick n tired of this trackball on the 8330, I recently had to fix it cause it would only go up... so onto a new Blackberry! Can anyone give me some input about the 8530? I hear the camera has no flash , is that true? How is that supposed to be an upgrade!? Anything else I should know that's different between the two, aside from the obvious?
The Subject say all...For me it's impossible to use this programs!!! I have 3 Nokia on my family: - My N80 - A 5800 Xpress Music - My Brothers N73
I have no problems with all Telephone to sync on Novi Suite... but it's impossible to use it: - On my N80 i can update some maps.... it's 20 MB of size... the programs say i need 2GB of free space !!!!!!!! **bleep** PG ?!?!?!
- On 5800 Xpress Music i can upgrade the firmware....... same 2GB of Free Space!!! **bleep**!
- On N73 i can upgrade some programs... it's 200KB of size.... same 2GB of Free Space required!!
BUT **bleep** it's this a **bleep** ERROR ?!?!? It's a **bleep** programs PG !OH... i have installed ovi some time ago.... i have now 2.0.2.42 and now i can't upgrade to the last version!! It's about 80 MB of size..FOR EVER THE SAME ERROR!2GB of space required
I read on the front page how others were having the proximity issue like I was and that if you did a reset of settings then it could fox it. So I went ahead and did that. I went in and started changing all my settings back and I realized that the only option I had for my passcode was to require it immediately and not after 5 min like I usually do. I've done some searching and saw that a google or exchange account could cause this. But I only have mobile me.So that can't be it. The only other option I've seen is to do a complete restore.Whig I'd really like to stay away from. Does anyone have any ideas?
When in college I connect to an open wifi network via a proxy. I then must use the web browser to validate a username and password to browse. This all works no problem if I want to view websites, however if i want to use the OVI store or Fring I must close the web browser so that they can connect and thus lose my validation settings-is there any way around this?
Again the network itself is open with no encryption, the log on is via web browser.
I'm also having 'No Gateway Reply' error when using an open ad-hoc network at home, but that's another problem for another post!
I have an internet flat rate for my phone. However, last week I went abroad and had my provider switch off d ata roaming in order not to create huge costs for any unwanted data transmissions. I thought I could go without for those few days...When I crossed the border, the gps receiver ceased to function at all. I tried several apps, among them Ovi maps (I desperately needed the navigation!), Sports Tracker etc. All said that no satellites were found. What's wrong? I would understand that assisted GPS should not work in that case, but normal GPs with maybe longer time for a fix has to work, but none at all? I let the phone try unmoved for an hour under best conditions.
I just chatted with a premier rep. about my concern that I being 18 with no credits would not qualify to get an iphone 4, so can I buy the phone under my moms name and then get my discount added?. To this, he said no that the line has to be under my name inorder to get the discount.But the good news that he gave me is this----"You would qualify for an iphone 4 with no credits as you would be buying it from premier store using your college email and with premier discount".So what do you guys think about this, was the rep right or was he just running away from the situation.
My iPhone 4s, which I've been using for 3+ months, today displayed "activation required". But when I try to activate, it says "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a few minutes. If this problem persists, contact Apple Support. Needless to say, connecting to iTunes doesn't work - "The software on the iPhone has expired and must be updated to a newer version".
my iPhone has started to lose signal then when you reboot it it comes up with the message activation required. When I unlock the phone it tells me to connect to iTunes. When I do this I have to restore the phone and restart it using my back up, but it keeps happening.
Why am I getting a pop up that says Security info required? I just enetered my password and it asks for it again, then wants security questions filled in?
I have recently changed my phone service provider and although I can send/receive phone calls, it is no longer possible to send/receive text messages. I just get the following message "required service not implemented".Another point is although I am sure that I have a Blackberry Bold, I am not absolutely sure it is model 9700 - (where can I be sure ?) - The same with the operating system !
I have had an email requiring me to log in with my username and password to validate my email (apparently this is something that happens every 360 days!?). For the life of me, I can't recall my username and password. I have tried entering my hotmail email address and password but this does not appear to work. I am unaware of any other password. I keep getting: blank user name. Type a valid user name. I have typed in my email address in user name...I have also requested a reminder for my password - my Curve 8520 tells me this has been sent but I have not received any such email or text.
I have read through all the forums, be it in Apple Communities or elsewhere, tried all means (uninstall and re-install, delete the Common files folder, etc...etc...etc) but I still cannot resolve this problem:
I am currently using ITunes 11.2.2Â 64-bit versionÂ
My iPhone 5c goes into Activation Required mode about 5-10 times per day and always overnight. Therefore my alarms do not work, can't receive texts or calls. I have to be in wifi to be able to re activate the phone. Once in wifi it takes me to the Apple ID log in page. Once I put in the info it takes me right back to the home screen as normal.
How to connect the iphone 5 on my pc i get this message: "You can use this iPhone because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes and then reinstall iTunes." I have done several times but the problem is not solved, searching on the forum i see that maybe the official version 64 bits, but does not accept me at my computer installation.
This is a quick message i have about 2 questions.Got the Storm 2 9550 but it is still with pretty old OS, which one should I use? no matter if it is leaked or not.Also i plan to move all my storm 1 apps to the storm 2. I was wondering how much memory i need to have left in my storm so it runs properly? 30 mb? less? ( more? (I do not like to restart a lot).
When you either sync you iphone or just connect it to itunes? In other words, if you plug in your iphone and there is an update possible, itunes forces your iphone to update. Can they legally do that and if so, would they ever do that?
I need an app that uses the iphone's camera and i can somehow view it on my computer so i can use it as a spy camera, i have an iphone 4 ios 4.0.1 and it's jailbroken
I'm a new user to BB device. From Blackberry webpage and manual, they stated that if we wish to update our device OS, we can either update through the web (Desktop Manager) with our computer or through our device itself via service provider (Wireless update).
If I have downloaded an OS package and wish to update it manually, what are the steps for this purpose and how? Please someone explain in brief, will appreciate that and how am I to ensure that the previous version of OS is removed? I'm currently reading about how to backup my data and 3rd party data, once I'm clear with everything, will proceed with the upgrade.
So everyday I go through a dead zone with my phone, and everytime I go through this dead zone, I have to reboot my phone after because it prevents me from being able to use the internet or bbm. In bbm it makes an eternal red clock (even after I fix it the messages I wrote before rebooting never send) and the internet will not load anything (nor facebook). So what I do everyday is pull out the battery to do a full reboot.
I'm traveling to London, England this upcoming week and purchased a Power Converter/ Adapter with a USB port. When I plugged the Blackberry into the USB, it said the charging device doesn't have enough power to charge the Blackberry. It says the USB output is 5VDC, 1 A max.How much power is required to charge the Blackberry and do you have any recommendations for power converters/adapters that are compatible with the Torch?
When connecting my Storm 2 to my laptop it is requesting my password 3 times. When I first started using it, it only requested my password 1 or 2 times. Once if the handset was already unlocked and twice if it is locked. It is not the Desktop manager that is the issue but the Blackberry device manager.Is there a way to stop the device manager requesting the password as it is annoying. I do not have a memory card in my handset so not quite sure why it is prompting.Also does anyone know where I can find more info on the Device manager whether it needs to be installed for BB desktop manager to function properly etc.
I have seen lot of bad comments regarding software updates. i am planning to update my software. please let me know is der any software bugs(like hanging or freezing phone)?
very useful app that will enable the Torch App (Flashlight) when the Screen is off and/or locked by simply pressing and holding the Volume Up button.
Our phones has the Torch in the Quick Toggles, but you need to turn it on, unlock and then go to to the QuickToggle to turn it on and off, with this is as simply as press and Hold the Volume Up, once you finish press the Volume down once. Best of all, no root required.
