My Defy is missing a few options in Location & Security:
Allow Bluetooth bypass
Data encryption
Select device administrators
Manage Trusted Certificates
It's a non-blurred version
Why on Earth would Motorola remove these options?
After downloading the Backup and restore app for X10 and selecting it for install I'm given and "install blocked pop-up. According to SE this pop-up should give the option to change settings. All I have is the option to click "OK". I m unable to download the backup and restore feature. Is it because I have and AT&T phone?
View 1 Replies View Relatedwhere text messages are stored by default on the Motorola Defy with Motoblur?
It was purchased SIM-free in June 2011 and has been running with an Orange UK SIM until 2 days ago when I switched it over to GiffGaff.
I wanted to try to preserve some text messages, but not sure if they are on the old SIM or in phone/SD memory.
I did have to perform a reset on swapping the SIM in order to re-authenticate the Motoblur account. If the messages are in the phone memory, will the reset actually over-write, or can they be retrieved with forensic software (I'm basically competent in use of forensic software).
I went on holiday recently and turned off all mobile data and noticed how slow the GPS was to fix - fine - no aGPS so what I expected.But back in the UK and it's still taking a long time (minutes) to get a fix. It used to get one in seconds.So I went to the menu to see if was. Under "location and security" I have -Use wireless networksUse GPS satelitesThen it goes onto "Compass" - no checkbox for aGPS. I can't remember if it was there before but I've seen people mention it on the internet.One slight complication - I moved to Froyo when I came back to the UK and don't know if it's related to that!

I was trying to get this new Facebook Places working and did something that seemed to work for a few 8520 users - Update the OS through the Desktop Software. I updated to the latest one and when I go Options > Advanced Options > Location Settings (It used to be GPS Settings or something similar, not Location Settings) I used to get GPS none and be able to switch my Location Services off and on. Since updating, I only get GPS none and Location Services off, no option to change either.
BB Maps used to find my location fine, Foursquare was good at finding very nearby locations so it must work using something other than GPS. I've updated everything only to try and get bloody FB Places working and it's not even worth it, I can't even use BB Maps now!I've tried re-installing maps and Foursquare but neither can find my location anymore so I believe it was something to do with the update.
I want some of my apps to use the location services & to be able to turn it off, but it's all greyed out. Same with my Cloud. I read thru the entire manual, with no luck. My iPhone 4S is from Verizon.

What should I do to or what I have to do to restore them or to get these back? I also wonder where I can see what I had at the beginning in all tabs and menus and in each part?

View 18 Replies View RelatedRecently switch jobs and had my Torch removed from former employers BES. Received confirmation that it was completed and emails stopped as expected. However, return address if found and password requirements stayed on the phone. Brought phone to Verizon service tech with the intentions to wipe phone. They were unable to perform function as the options feature and icon are missing. Service tech believed that it was removed or hidden as part of former employers security. Former employers IT group claims not to remove functions on BB phones and phone must be defective. Phone has served me well with no complaints. Would like to use it with new employers BES. Anyone know how to wipe or restore. Nothing on this phone is important. Running Software Version 7.1 Bundle 1737

I swear on my 2.1 Spice XT300, the auto-retrieval was by email address (and also the smallest interval between fetches was 5 minutes, not 15 like on the Defy). I have never used 2.1 on the Defy; mine was original 2.2.1.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have had my defy now for a few months, and I have been pretty happy with it (babyproof smartphone!)Unfortunately, its becoming more and more unreliable, and am having to reboot it regularly.This weekend is the worst. Here are some of the things it is doing:
all apps keep freezing and crashing (no fancy apps, mostly use it for twitter, facebook etc).phone keeps freezing and being unresponsible on the home screen keep getting an 'emergency calls only' notification, which then clears straight away when i go into notifications.mms photos - both sent and received take up to 5 days to be visible. until then they are just flagged as 'downloading'. I'm pretty sure it shouldn't take 5 days to download a 27kb file.After rebooting, I did have a gmail widget require a forced close immediately. I was never using that widget anyway, and couldn't see it, so I uninstalled it. Now on rebooting I have to force close Google Services Framework. I have decided that looks reasonably important and useful and have declined to uninstall that so far.
I have a my Defy & XT and as of 9:22 am the weather widget hasn't udated and I've turned the phone off and on etc and then I deleted my location and tried to readd it and it said something like.. location information cannot be found (not sure off hand).. I don't know what to do but it won't let me add any loactions but apps from the market work.
View 2 Replies View RelatedJust been given a Curve 8520 by my son, lucky me. When he gave it to me it had all of his settings for a different network and wifi settings. So i thought it would be easier to do a full wipe and start a fresh.However since doing this i have no email setup and no option to update software or wifi .I have tried downloading new software but it gets to the" Check for updates screen" and goes no further. I have to close it down and restart the computer. I have left this to run for over 3hours thinking it may work but to no avail. I have tried it with desktop software running and without, with and without a sim card.
