I'm new with the Sprint Hero, and it's working out pretty well. But, I have a problem you all may be able to help with. I had a Blackberry curve before and when I got email I could zoom it to be able to read. I can't get the Hero to do that. Is there a way?Sure would help work issues here.
One of my friends had a baby last night and sent me an email with 3 photos attached. Blackberry truncated due to size, so I went to mobile website and it won't let me view the photos.I'm a bb newbie,I also tried downloading and that didn't work either.
Make & Model - Bold 9700 Carrier - AT&T BES 4.0 Server
Symptoms: Open Attachment, retrieving attachment starts, I have noticed with a 30k pdf attachment will download and show, not legible though. Very slow.
With a 600k attachment retrieving freezes, have to keep clicking more until download is 100%. Attachment still not displaying correctly, shows just white screen.
I've had some Word (doc, etc) attachments send to me via email and when i click on it it says 'cannot view attachment'. How do i view them? I have downloaded OpenOffice reader from the Market but can't see how that works.
I am unable to update Applications or preview attachments in gmail over the mobile network. However, the same is working on the wireless network.I have probably reset my phone to factory settings/repaired the installation atleast 3 times in the past for other problems such as missing entries in call logs, slow response, etc. I am on Anrdroid 2.1 Random reboots happen almost thrice a week and phone response is very slow. I think I should go back to my blackberry.
after arguing with sprint for hours and trying to "legally" get PAM added to my account with no avail, i got tired of arguing and hung up and decided to see if i could get around it on a BB while still having a decent plan.well you can.
These instructions are at your own risk, and while i was able to do it to both a curve and a pearl, and im assuming since all BB's are about the same it should work on the tour and 8830, it's at your own risk.
I am not posting this from my normal username, as it's a little risky for me to do so so please know that i've had plenty of posts on here and been around since '04 Ok so here goes.Step 1: Install QPST 2.7 build 215 (this is very important, no other one will work, find it yourself )
Step 2: Obtain your MSL/SPC from Sprint (if you dont already have it)Step 3: Get your PowerVision Username (if you dont know it, you can do ##xxxxxx and press call from the homescreen x=msl/spc, it's the [URL] in the list)Step 4: Start BBDM and QPST Configuration at the same time, then once you add the port to QPST, selct "Service Programming" from the drop down menu.
Step 5: Select your phone in the list, dont worry it will act like it doesnt know the chipset model, select SURF6300 BB from the list and say OK
Step 6: go to the MIP tab Step 7: Create a new MIP profile that looks just like this (except in the NAI and Tethered NAI, you'll enter your PV username) -- once you're done you will have two profiles, the first one im assuming is for provisioning and i wouldnt mess with it.
Step 8: click "OK" then "write to phone", it will give an error about the model changing on com X, do you want to close the connection?, say NO it will write anyway, then you will get another error about the phone not responding.. that's because it rebooted.Step 9: once the phone reboots, create a manual DUN connection (i assume if you're on here and understand how to use PST you can make a DUN connection ) with the connection as follows:
Phone number: #777 Username/password fields are blank..
My Photon 4 G does not sync calendar, contact, Gmail with my company Gmail account. I believe that it just stopped syncing last week and I believe that it was following a Motorola update, but cannot say for sure. Under Data Delivery, both Background Data and Data enabled are checked green. However, this is interesting because Email and corporate sync is grayed out on that screen. When I go to Account, checking the sync options is not possible, but I can do a manual sync. Please note, at one time, these options to sync Contacts, Gmail and Calendar were available. I've pulled the batter. I really do not want to reset to factory default. Suggestions? (Please note this is a company Gmail account, not just regular Gmail.)
Went through and set up my gmail through the email set up wizard. Used these exact steps: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB03087
Issue is I'm not seeing any of my existing / read messages on my phone. After set up I had zero messages in my blackberry email inbox. How do I go about getting these message in my blackberry email?
I don't know if my thread title makes sense but basically what I would like to know is what are the advantages of downloading the Gmail app vs just setting up a Gmail account through my BIS (Email Settings/Add Account)? My main objective here is wireless contacts sync. I have read a lot of negative feedback regarding Gmail on a BlackBerry but I will not really even be using this for email all to often, although I will from time to time. What I have done is just added my new Gmail account through the native BlackBerry email setup and then downloaded Google Sync. I downloaded the Gmail app but I didn't really like the UI and I like to have all 3 of my email accounts go into the same folder.
When I get an email I like how the blackberry automatically opens up the email application if I pull it out of the holster.The only problem is that it pulls up the Messages inbox and not my gmail account inbox.Any way to fix this or do anything about it? I have the gmail enhanced plugin if that makes a difference.Also on a totally unrelated note is there a way to search the gmail server from the gmail plugin app?
Does the native HTC Mail app in Sense UI, push gmail? Or any other IMAP connections that support the IDLE command? Or does only the native gmail app push gmail? I ask, because I have multiple email accounts on my phone, gmail, hotmail, etc.. gmail is on the native gmail app, which is currently pushing... but the others are in the HTC Mail app.
I'd rather have 1 app for everything, instead of bouncing between.. IMAP is IMAP.. which the HTC Mail app supports (for moving to and from folders).. but if it doesn't push using the IDLE command (like gmail app does).. then I'm stuck where I am.
First of all I'd like to know if the data i send thru bis using the phone's mail configuration is encrypted till server, as far as i understand the route is blackberry ==> Provider ==> BIS ==> google servers ==> BIS ==> Provider ==> blackberry, now, are my password and mails encrypted during all this? I mean is it all encrypted even after it passed thru bis?
Second, I'd like to know what gmail app does (m.google.com/mail) regarding encryption, i see in its settings "always use secure connections" that should mean its all encrypted according to google policies right?Last, if i used the gmail app (google's) would i still need a BIS subscription or just an internet connection would be fine?
Reason i want to know is that Blackberry's mail may be a little more comfortable for me due to slow connection but i'd still want to be safe, only thing i noticed is that BIS logs into my gmail account (pretty normal tho).I see this has been discussed in the past but there was never a definitive answer and i think (not tried though) that packet sniffing wouldnt bring me one either.
I have a torch 9810 that i've been trying to view my Q-See cameras and since this version has version 7 ,supposedly according to Q-See teckniciansthere are no phone apps that will work with this phone.My old blackberry Torch 9800 had an app called DMSS which worked flawlessly, but will not work with this phone.
I recently switched from iPhone and one thing that is bothering me about my android phone is the lock screen real estate. I have this big screen and 90% of the screen is taken by the clock and unlock feature. Notifications get a small band and stack on each other.
Problem being while I'm away if I get 3 text messages, a phone call, and some other alert all I see is a stack of notifications but I can't read them.
On the iphone if you turn the screen on you actually read what happened and decide right away if you care enough to unlock your phone and respond. With this new phone I always have to unlock to see what the notifications actually are about and if I care or not.
I have saved my contacts information from my z3 to sony PC companion, but i can not see how to view my contacts in PC companion, if for example i loose my phone then how can i view my contacts on my PC ?
My music is playing up on my phone, so if i go to deelte a playlist there is no option to delete it, only the share etc option, also if i go to add a song to a playlist , the list of playlists does not show , only an option to start a new playlist shows up, so basically i have to make a new playlist per each song, obviously this can`t be right.
When I receive a txt with multiple pics I have to open each one individually. This is annoying! It's there any app in the play store that allows you to select one pic and swipe thru the rest?
This is my first non iPhone and I gotta say I like a lot of stuff it will do that the iPhone won't BUT when it comes to texting/ messageing , IMO the iPhone is better.
I'm new to the HTC/Android family. Just moved from the iPhone (good riddance) and I'm in love with my Desire. However, I find that the Desire organizes text messages in a weird way where the recipient and sender messages don't follow one after another rather it puts all the recipient responses on the top half of the screen and the sender at the bottom. Does anyone know how to change this?
I was on my phone the other day and needed a copy of a pdf page to email. I was told to place a finger on the top and bottom of the screen but it wouldn't work. Is that the correct way or was I doing it wrong.
Is there an easy way to plug my Blackberry into my Flatscreen TV (fairly recent 42" Samsung) to view my pictures, picture slideshows or videos directly from my Blackberry??? Seems straight forward but I've been having trouble getting this answer. Is it just a particular connecting cord?
If i want to put some full length movies (Iron Man 2, Transformers 3, Fast & Furious 5 etc) onto my DX2 so that I an watch them while on a plane ride, what do I need to do?
Do they need to be a certain file type?
DO I need to do anything other than take them and put them on my SD card via USB Cable?
I've just bought the E5 and I have a problem: when I look at the screen from an angle slightly to the right, it looks perfect, only a little brighter; however, when I look at the screen from an angle slightly to the left, I can read nothing on the screen, because it gets very dark. Is anyone else facing this or is there a problem with my device? Shouldn't the viewing range be symmetrical? Why my screen's viewing angle is wide from one side and extremely narrow from the other?
My problem is that my new Nokia E5 has a problem with viewing videos. The problem is that the video which I would like to view has audio but no visuals. This only happens to the mp4 format videos i transfered from my computer onto my phone. Other videos such as camera filmed works normally yet the problem persists for ones that I transfer from computer over. I've compressed the video files using the Nokia Video Converter Factory Pro program, yet it still doesn't seem to work.
Many of my emails contain images.I've got my email settings to 'download images automatically' yet whenever an email has images they appear in white with the black lines box around. 'menu click' on the image + click 'get image' and the image downloads and appears.how the bleeding can i get it to show all images without clicking that one every image in an email.
Did apple take this feature away in ios4?On my 3gs photos reorient themselves when I hold my phone horizontally.On my ip4, even when viewing pictures taken in landscape mode they do no orient themselves when I hold the phone horizontally.
