9300 curve memory

I had an offer I couldn't refuse from virgin for a 9300 curve. It was my intention to use it mainly for calls and texts. However I now want to use it for web browsing as well. I am finding that on some sites the memory is not large enough to open the files. I know I could get another version with a larger memory, but is there any way I can upgrade/increase the memory on my current phone? I would appreciate any replies in non technical language as I am not experienced in mobile phone technology
Thanks, hope to hear from someone soon

If you want to delete apps, scroll to in on the menu and hit the BB menu button (you know, the one that looks like the Blackberry logo). Delete should be in there. You might need to reboot your phone after deleting some apps though, it'll warn you if you do.
That usually works if you select other stuff - like photos - that you want to delete too.

My 9300 Curve (v5) keeps shutting down!

My 9300 Curve (v5) shuts down every time I send an email with a picture attached, anyone have a suggestion? It actually did it one other random time while I was writing a long email, but every time when sending a picture it definitely shuts off. I assumed it was a memory issue, but cannot seem to figure out how to fix it or find an answer anywhere.
Thanks

9300 curve acting crazy

I am having a problem with typing messages on my 9300 curve in any application. Example: trying to type message in bbm and cursor bounces all over screen, and when you are finally able to type a letter, sometimes wierd accent marks appear above the letter. also when trying to use gsp, the page flips on you. Any advice? these problems happen sometimes, then other times it works perfectly fine. Thanks

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Best!

I cannot access the Advaced Email set up screen from my 9300 Curve

Can I talk to someone in Blackberry who can solve my email problem? Blackberry premium email team have been unable to help me for the last 5 weeks despite many attempts. Blackberry forums and BIS do not address why I cannot access the Advanced Setting screen to set POP/IMAP details for my primary email address from my phone. I have 3 other email address's working fine. I have had a 9300 Curve for the past year and this problem only occurred when updating the Blackberry software to 6.0 Bundle 2647 (V6.0.0.00 - Platform 6.6.0.223) 5 weeks ago.I am desperate for help....Jeff Dakin -

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
So as to avoid wasting your time with redundant advice, please post EVERYTHING you have already attempted, with exactness and clarity, especially since you've already been escalated to the folks who certainly should have been able to solve it.

9300 Curve wifi problem - cannot connect to internet using only wifi once data turned off

I've got a 9300 Curve with a data plan from Rogers. I want to use my wifi in hotspots when I go overseas without using my data. I have no problems connecting to wifi networks. Once I turn off my data services, my connections to the wifi network show that the signal is still just as strong, but I can't use my browser, facebook, bbm, etc. - message is "unable to connect to internet" when I try and access my browser. This problem occurs whether I'm using a public hotspot or my home router. I used to be able to access wifi without using data from Rogers on my older Curve (can't remember the model), so I don't think it has anything to do with my plan.
Any suggestions/advice would be much appreciated!

Thanks for the reply!
Did you mean "leave data ON and turn off data roaming"? But that would just turn off my data while I'm roaming, and while I'm not roaming, it'll still access through data and not through wifi like I would prefer. That's what I understand, but pls correct me if I'm wrong! I guess I meant to also mention that whether I'm in my home zone or overseas, I still can't use my browser, bbm, etc through wifi only, with data turned off...it just says there's no connection to the server/internet, even though it shows that I'm connected to a wifi network.

The 9300 model does have built-in GPS.
On all model BlackBerrys, first make certain that you in an area of good signal coverage AND outside with a clear view of the sky in an open area of no tall buildings.
For GSM network devices, do this:
Click Options > Advanced > GPS > Menu > Refresh GPS.
Give it up to 10 minutes to refresh, and try 2-3 times in a row.
For the 9800 model:
1. On the Home screen or in a folder, click the Options icon.
2. Click Device > Location Settings.
3. Press the Menu key > Refresh GPS.

Wifi issue in blackberry 9300 curve

Respected sir,
i am vinod and i have blackberry 9300 curve.. whenever i turn on wifi able to connect to the wireless network but am not able to use internet. its giving the error message ie
'' unable to coonect to the internet, please try again later. if the problem persists please contact your service provider'' and i am sure that wifi is nothing to do with service provider. please help to resolve this issue.. and i hope for positve response from you.

You're running OS 5 on your BB 9300, right?
So go into your Browser -> Browser Option -> General Setting -> Default Browser Configuration -> You choose: "Hotspot Browser"
(If necessary, you should check at Browser Option -> Browser Configuration, it should be "Hotspot Browser" too).
Then it will enable to use wifi in browser.
Hope it works for you, buddy
P/S: In case, your device's running OS 6 or the above solution can't solve your problem, let me know

BB 9300 Curve - Bluetooth

Hi, I'm the happy owner of a BB 9300 Curve. When I lock the keypad and make use of the phone in my car (BMW X5) thru the Bluetooth connection my keypad gets unlocked and remains that way; hence, my phone starts making calls I did not plan on making.
Any ideas on how to solve this annoying problem
thanks
Don

Unfortunately not. And mine is a 8520, cannot be upgraded the OS. My solution is: I have a Nokia phone, whenever I am in my car, I forward my calls on BB to my Nokia number. Not very professional, but at least it works...

9300 Curve GPS & Maps

Just bought a 9300 Curve and can't find the maps/gps on it, i looked in Options/Applications and then Add Ons and found maps but can't find it on the phone itself, How do you switch on the GPS ?? I'm currenly roaming as i bought this phone in Qatar but using a Spanish MoviStar sim card, do you think this could be the problem ??? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi
Given that we are just a bunch of ordinary users, it is not usual for a question to go unanswered. My 8520 has no GPS cabability and so I didn't respond when I saw your original post due to lack of being able to locate the items on my device. But, hey, we'll have a stab at it.
First of all, Location Settings can be found in Options > Advanced. Ensure that settings are on. I can't tell you which one's as I dont have them.
Have a look in the media folder, the download folder and indeed any folder and ensure that Menu > Show All is checked. Do this for each folder until you locate Maps.
Back to Options, then > Date/Time and ensure that the correct time zone etc is selected.
No look with any of that then
The Blackberry is designed to be reset by removing the battery whilst the device is powered-on. Leave the battery out for a minute or 2.
See if that resolves the problem.
Still no luck?
In the guides it says to do a backup. Do this if you haven't already done so saving the file to a place and in a name that you can easily locate on computer.
I then uninstalled DTM and then deleted all other references to BB/Rim in Windows Explorer thus removing the OS for the BB from the computer in order to ensure that the version I would reinstall would be a brand new downloaded version.
Get the latest Desk Top Software
http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/?CPID=OTC-DSKTPSW&cp=OTC-DSKTPSW
and install it on the computer.
Get the correct latest version of the OS
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
and save it to computer.
To erase all the data on your BlackBerry device, complete the following steps. This option is available with
BlackBerry Device Software 3.8 and later.
1. In the device Options, click Security.
If you are using BlackBerry Device Software 4.1, click Security Options > General Security.
2. Click the trackwheel and select Wipe Handheld.
3. Click Continue.
4. Type “blackberry”. All the data on the BlackBerry device is erased.
On some new versions of BlackBerry software, the menu navigation is slightly different.
1. Go to Options.
2. Select Security Options.
3. Select General Settings.
4. Click the Menu key.
5. Select Wipe Handheld.
6. Click Continue.
7. Type “blackberry”. All the data on the BlackBerry device is erased.
Launch the new Desk Top Software on the computer
1. Connect your device to your computer.
2. On the home screen of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software, click Update my device.
3. Do one of the following:
* To download an update, click Get update.
* To view other available versions of the BlackBerry Device Software, click View other versions. If applicable, click another version. Click Install.
Ensure the new OS is the one you prevously downloaded.
Do not disconnect the device until the whole process is completed and the device has rebooted.
After 10 minutes reboot again by removing the battery whilst powered-on and leave it out for a couple of minutes.
Leave it again for 10 minutes. You should now have a fully functioning BB!

Serious problem with blackberry 9300 Curve handset and denial from BB to replace the same, under warranty.

Dear Blackberry Authorities,
It is really a horrible experience with the handset of blackberry for me. I have purchased blackberry Curve handset 9300 on 22nd April from a "Phone Store”, Shop No.78,79,community centre, New friends colony, New Delhi, The Invoice No. is 319,The details of the handset are as follows:
Handset: Blackberry Curve 9300 1256-India Qwerty-Pink
Name: Blackberry 9300: ETA-716/2010/WRLO
Model: RDA71UW
It has been more than just three months ,when i purchased this handset ,It worked fine for about only fifty days from the date of purchase and from the second month ,to my shock, serious problem started in the handset and some time it was getting hanged ,sometime some keys in the keypad did not work ,some time it was getting hanged the moment I receive incoming call., sometime sms sending problem, some time some other problem ..Every time I used to switch off the phone and start again, then it used to work but after some days again there were some other problem occurring in the handset.
The phone was not getting connected to PC from the starting, and i have tried so many times but i fail to get success.
Many a times when I used t send sms the entire alphabet typed on sms has gone separately as a single alphabet in a particular sms to the recipient, causing embarrassment for me in my organization. I would blame the black berry for this embarrassment as this has caused due to faulty phone they have sold me,
I am service class person and i get occupied with my work at office in the day hours and doesn’t have time to go to the service centre of blackberry every time the problem occurs, as there are only one service centre available in Delhi at Lajpat Nagar.The service centre is about 20 Kilometers away from the area my office is situated, I managed to keep the phone running by switching off and switching on after one or two minutes, every time the problem occurs but in the first week of last month ,when the problem started continuing after switching off and switching on also ,I was bound to go to service centre at noida since it is close to my place (about 14 Km) in comparison of Lajpat nagar at new delhi,the service engineer at blackberry service centre saw my phone and said there is some software problem which can be rectified by reinstalling the software, and there are some hardware problem also (some keys on the keypad is not et. all working) ,for which i have to surrender my phone to them and they will send it to the Blackberry Office (they did not give address) and it would take 15 days at least ,thus since I had no back up phone and my each and every contact no. was there in phone it was difficult for me to give them handset at that time ,so I requested them to rectify the software problem by re installing the same.
I asked the service manager to get the backup of all the data and contact no saved into the phone, but they refused to do so and they asked me to go to some other shop nearby to get the data backup, I went to that shop and they asked 250 Rupees for data backup of my phone. I was bound to say yes to them for the amount the charge for backup .I gave them my handset and after 20-30 minutes they came back to me by saying, we cannot store your data backup as it is not connecting to PC. It was a highly disappointing reply for me.
Then i again went to your service centre and written down some important contact no.(the number which was stored on phone book) on piece of paper and taken out my SD card ,and gave them handset for re installing the same.
They gave me my handset after one and half hour and said" now it would work fine except hardware problem.".I came back and to my utter shock again after two three days handset was into its old condition ,then also I tried to manage with handset and when i could spare sometime I went to your service centre again on 24th July at Noida,
they took the phone and said it would take 12-15 days to return the handset after rectifying the problem,when i requested them to change the handset with a new handset which is at least in good working condition , they clarified that if the hardware problem is not manageable or repairable ,i would get new handset had no option except to give them handset for rectifying the problem.
Now,It is the time for a biggest shock from blackberry people-Today on 3rd August ,i have received a call from noida blackberry service centre to inform me that my handset cannot get repaired under standard warranty conditions of blackberry as there are some moisture into the phone and there is no warranty if there is a moisture inside the phone.
Thus now i wish to inform all the concerned ,Blackberry/Research in Motion ,managers/authorities ,that i have explained above ,all the things ,happened to me in last three months of my purchase of handset, in detail ,so i would again request to Blackberry/Research in Motion ,managers/authorities, to rectify the problem of my handset or change the entire handset so that I can use the same peacefully and should not roam around the service center of blackberry.
Giving this lame excuse that "there is a moisture inside the handset and thus it can’t get repaired or changed under warranty " is a clear case of cheating and harassing the customer, I have bought the handset to use it for my communication purpose not to roam around the blackberry service center nor to put water or moisture inside the handset and play with the handset and fight with all of you.
If there were some moisture inside the handset then that should have been seen by the noida service centre people also during my First visit itself by them and they would have refused taking the handset for repair. They did not refuse but accepted handset and reinstalled software also, If there was some moisture that would have been seen by them that time only.
In my second visit also the took my phone and seen the inside condition also of handset in front of me ,they did not see any moisture, that time also ,and now after 10 odd days ,there are some moisture inside the phone??????.
I have no idea how blackberry keeps its handset ,which has come to them for repairing ,but if there is any trace of moisture into my handset ,that would have come into the handset ,during these 10 days only when phone was with blackberry authorized service engineers for repair purpose. What I know is that My Blackberry handset is under warranty and it is not working properly thus it should be replaced by Blackberry.
On the keypad if some key are not working that is a hardware problem which was there in the handset and it has no connection with the moisture.
If this is the way blackberry is treating its customer, i would say it is harassing its customer, and does not want to rectify the problem .in this case, I would have no option left except to go to the consumer court in Indian judiciary system. And moreover i would inform my and other friends, organizational employee also not to use services/or buy blackberry handset if this is the way BB is treating its customer.
I would request all the concerned persons/managers/authorities of Blackberry/Research in Motion, take action into my case urgently and rectify the core problem into my handset instead of giving lame excuses, and change the faulty handset of mine with a new properly working handset under warranty condition.
Best Regards
Asim
