I Have an iPhone 5s and a bb curve 8520. I would like to use curve for texting and other such works but it doesn't seem to support iPhone hotspot. It just connects to the hotspot of my iphone but doesn't connect to the internet. I tried with 2 others blackberries and I'm facing the same issue. Why am i not able to connect?Â

Now I've had this phone for about 2 months...decent phone, few problems here and there but good for the most part.
I originally got one which had a dead pixel on it, and was sent a replacement phone free of charge, no hassle.
Now with this phone, about a week ago I noticed a black faded spot on my screen upon waking up, having it charge overnight.
You can really only see it when there's a bright white background or if you tilt the phone, its about 1/4".
I called Fido, they said to do a system restore/backup to see if that resolves the spot. Didn't work.
I call back, they said they'd ship one out and have a tech check it out and determine if it was caused by physical damage, and if it was I'd be invoiced $200 for a refurbished phone and not able to get this unit back.
Now I'm pretty sure I didn't drop or ding or pinch my phone, but I cannot be entirely sure. It's also protected by an Otterbox Defender series case which is pretty rugged...but I'd hate do be billed for $200 when I guess I could learn to live with the spot, but still sucks considering I paid full price for it and I don't believe i caused any damage to it..
Anyone else experience similar problems with their LCD's?
I recently bought BlackBerry Curve 8520, and today I noticed a dark spot on its screen it is only visible on white background, and the text reads just fine. The intensity of the spot changes it depends at which angle I am reading the text, etc. (well, this is rather obvious, I guess). I tried to reboot the device by removing the battery, it didn't help.

It's locked to Hutchison 3G Austria, and they refuse to help me with unlocking it.They said I (being in Russian Federation) should come to the office where this phone was bought (somewhere in Austria) with the seller (who's in California) and then they'll think what they can do.

So I have an unlocked iPhone 4S on a carrier that doesn't sell the iPhone, nor supports Visual Voicemail.
When you get your unlocked 4S, the Visual Voicemail box shows "Cannot Connect to Voicemail". The result...Voicemail works the traditional way. You get an audio alert and a bubble appears on your phone icon. You call and check your messages. Fine. All is well.
The problem is this...Whenever you get an iOS update, Apple forces Visual Voicemail into active mode. Suddenly, the screen that said "Cannot Connect to Voicemail" previously looks like it's a normal functioning Visual Voicemail box.
Thing is..it isn't.From now on, you will no longer receive audible voicemail notifications. Occasionally the little red bubble will appear and quickly disappear, and that's it. You have voicemail, but you're not properly notified of it. And Visual Voicemail just sits there and looks pretty. There's nothing displayed indicating you have voicemail. You actually have to dial voicemail and check to see if there are messages. Not to mention the Visual Voicemail interface is completely useless. It can't show you your messages, and you can't check messages from it?
Sure you can look at your missed calls and dial up voicemail to see if anybody left a message, but that's (1) - dumb, and (2) - impractical for users who have their phones forwarding to voicemail full-time, who might have their phones shut off for whatever reason, or who are out of signal range for a period of time.So far the only one I've found that works is to get a SIM exchange. New SIM, Visual Voicemail goes back to "Cannot Connect". So I'm guessing the update writes something to the SIM
This issue has been brought up several times in the forums previously but not explained very well and the generic response seems to be "contact your carrier and shut off your mailbox"This happened with both the 5.0.1 and the 5.1 updates.

I have a 3GS operating on 5.1 and find my network subscriber Virgin Media do not support Internet usage on this phone. Other than changing my network subscriber is there anything I can do to access the Internet with my 3GS phone other than through Wi-Fi.

Does anyone know when the OFFICIAL 5.0 update for tmobile comes out, i see the leaked versions online but I don't want to risk it. Right now I'm running.
4.6.1.259.
If anyone out there could lend me a helping hand with this. Well, im not a very heavy BB user but ive never had my batt go dead on me but it happened! i totally couldnt turn my phone on until i put in my charger.Then it happens randomly whereby my phone will heat up and the battery drops 5% every 10mins or so! until it shuts off!! It happened once right after i fully charged my phone and it shut off within the next hour.Anyone knows whats happening?? i suspected whether it was any of my installed apps that are draining my batt, so i shut off everything! i mean no msn no foursquare no twitter only emails are on but yet it still happens!!Help please? i hope its just the batt thats screwed not my phone.

I'm having this weird issue with my iphone 4 where when I take a picture, theres a blue tint in the center of the photo. You can really see it when the photo is mostly white. I thought it was the screen at first until I looked at the picture on my computer and could still see it. Anyone else having this problem? Do you think I could get the Genius Bar to fix it?

Spotlight search is no longer searching anything! I type swipe down and type and nothing happens. Hitting the search button on the keyboard hyst gives the Web and Wikipedia buttons. A reset will hopefully fix it but I was wondering if there was a quicker alternative.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an ATT 8520 Curve unlocked to work with a tmobile sim card and have a few questions...Now that's unlocked I cant setup an external email account (hotmail, gmail, etc...) that icon is missing from the setup section. how can I get that feature? can I also use the bbm feature? I added a friend (and vice-versa) but it just stays as pending. is it possible to bbm? for the above 2 do i need to get the bb data plan so they can work? I've read elsewhere that the best way to get the features would be to load the tmobile handheld software. I went to tmobiles site, I enter my ph# - select the 8520 - click on handheld and it takes me to their 'shop for phones' page. I guess they now by the number that i dont currently have a bb. So I tried a friends ph# from tmobile who has a bb and it still took me to the 'shop for phones' page. So I Am hoping it's just a link glitch going on right now. I did download from this forum the 5.0 OS "8520wifiM_PBr5.0.0_rel860_PL5.2.0.47_A5.0.0.509_W ind_Hellas.exe" which obviously is not tmobile. What would loading this different OS allow me to do? Or what features will I have available? and I have lowercase 'edge'.
