About the blackberry battery or something..

Good afternoon,
I have a question about my Blackberry 8900. Let me go:
Why does my blackberry battery run out fast, even I am not using it? its standby time is only 3-4 hours now. My battery is healthy (I've tested with my friend's Blackberry 8900, and it could stay more than 5 hours), I didn't turn on the BlackBerry Internet Service, I am not using anything, the running programs were only 5, [Messages],[Phone],[Home Screen],[Blackberry Messenger], and [Browser]. My WiFi was off, only the Mobile Networks which is ON.. My BlackBerry Messenger version is 5.0.1.41.. Oh great, I have the screen shot about the [Help-Me!]
Thanks in advance..
Solved!

Would you mind posting how you solved the issue? Just as I'm having the same problem and I've only had the phone for a month and always allowed the battery to drain before recharging so I know it can't be that.

My story about the Blackberry 9320

My story about the Blackberry 9320....
I have asked question's about buying a Blackberry for my Mom/Me for personal use from a few people and all very knowable in the IT world, and from one i know who uses a Blackberry as well manage there enterprise. All said it's too much phone to buy for you Mom.....
But as it would have it Mom really needed a new phone and when i saw the 9320 on sale i ask her to have a look at the phone and let me know what you think of it. She did... and just loved phone...the feel..the size..key board..even the white colour.
So the following day i went and bought the white 9320 for her, and really thought i had a challenge on my hands to teach a 76 year old to use the phone. Boy was i and every one i talked wrong about the 9320 being too much phone for her to use.
First off she was very happy to get this Blackberry, and secondly the setup was as easy as easy can get. We logged in to Virgin Account setting applied the new information and with in 5 minis it was updated and live.
Then came the part to show her how to text and use the phone, and in less then an 30 minutes she had the basics and was texting and calling with easy. I wanted to show her more about the use of what it can do and was told, no i want to figure it out myself so i can learn and remember. But Mom's it's a lot of phone and if you get frustrated you may not be too happy. And the answer i got was that's ok i can figure thing's out on my own, and that way i can learn.
With in a few days my 76 year old Mom figured out own her how to do just about anything wanted to do with the 9320, contact's, calendar, texting, bed side clock, tasks, making appointment's attaching photo's to texting, using the documents to go and more all on her.
I was so impressed by how easy and comfortable she felt with the phone i went and bought one for myself.
We both have had a phone before Christmas and tho it was a learning Curve (lol no pun in tended) in the being we both feel very comfortable use it.
This is a great little phone and thought i would sharing this story from these two very happy user's.

Question about the BlackBerry 8520 Unlocked

Hi all,
I've a question about the BlackBerry 8520.
I saw it's being sold as unlocked and I'm wondering if once I buy it I need to have a particular carrier plan to use it or if I can simply use my pay as you go At&t plan.
So far I didn't buy any smartphone, iPhone, Android and so on because I don't want to be forced to add a monthly plan, that by the way usually is not cheap here in LA (around $70-$90 per month). But I'd like to have a BlackBerry as I guess I could use, even without the usual carrier plans, most of its features (but please correct me if I'm wrong).
So, basically the question is: would it make sense to buy the 8520 even with my basic "pay as you go" plan?
Thanks for any info.

Haha... so, probably whatever I write in this forum it doesn't matter. That's nice, it could be the perfect place where I can just rant or write anything that comes to my mind. Cool, I'll keep you guys updated. Stay tuned, some good rant coming soon!

What you like about the BlackBerry 10.3.X OS update ?

Tell What you like about the update BBOS 10.3
For me it's the interactivity and the repsonse of the interface.

For me it's the Customizable Notifications Profiles, much like we had on OS7.
It's also BlackBerry Blend!

Complaining about the Blackberry hub

I just update my blackberry z30 last night but there was an error in the blackberry hub. The hub is always in landscape even i turn on the rotation lock. But when i turn off the rotation lock, it was normal i can do both portrait and landscape.

Turn off rotation lock, this will allow the hub (and other apps) to display in portrait. Blackberry are aware of the issue see link http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB36744

Complaint about the Blackberry Torch

Hi there
Please help me to get this complaint into the right hands so please forward and copy me in. Your website strangely does not have an email address for complaints.
Normally I am a supporter of Blackberry but then I got the Blackberry 9800 (torch) and I have never been more unhappy with a phone for the following reasons:
It scratches and chips easily and looks horrible in a short space of time.
Most importantly, Blackberry do not have many covers for this phone. I travel quite far to get a cover for the phone because no one stocks them!
The covers that I do get break monthly (the front sliding section). I have therefore spent a fortune on countless covers (I have had to buy at least 20 in the two years that I have had the phone). I am not negligent and keep my phone in my handbag so am very careful with it.
I am so disappointed in this phone and it has cost me so much money to keep protecting it not only with the covers but also travelling to find covers.
Kindly respond to this thoughtless phone that was expensive and expensive to maintain.

I have a screen guard but it is on the outer edge of the screen. It chips!
As far as the covers go, I mentioned that I have to find the covers and it is not easy because I have to "find" them. Just ask your cellphone stores and you will discover that they are always out of stock. My current cover is just not going on and I have been to three stores and they do not have covers.
Clearly, there is a problem!

Wow! People weren't kidding about the 4S battery life!

I just purchased a 4S about a week ago. After fully charging it and turning off location services, 3G, push notifications and everything else I could find to turn off; I'm luck if the battery lasts 7 to 8 hours.
I've turned off everything I can possibly turn off and just cannot sqeeze more than 8 hours out of it. I must note that the phone is in standby mode most of those 8 hours.

How are you using the phone? If it dies in 8 hours without you doing anything something is wrong with yours. Mine lasts about 6-7 hours of heavy constant use (games,wifi,video) and 2 days with moderate phone use and some browsing. Why would you turn off 3g and location services? There is no point to owning an iPhone with those turned off.
Also, I'm sure that you set up the phone from a backup. Try restoring it and setting it up as a new phone. Yeah it's a pain to store your numbers again but this way you can be sure that the phone has a problem and not something else. That's what I did and I have had NO issues with my white 32GB 4S at all. The phone is not defective. It's possible that there is a battery draining bug when using a backup from a 3gs or 4.

Help me about the ipod battery

Did the battery test as apple said to, but i only got about 8 hours out of it and ive only had it for about 1/2 months! Is this normal? Or is my ipod faulty in some way?
Paul

I managed to squeeze 14 and a half hours out the the black 4G that I had by doing the following.
Draining it and then FULLY charging it (left it plugged in a good while after the battery indicator said it was full).
Turned EQ off.
Turned Sound Check off.
Turned Shuffle off.
Set backlight timeout to minimum.
Populated it with files smaller than around 9 meg.
Set volume to around 40% (which was realistic for me in general use).
Locked it and left the buttons alone.
Left it overnight and it was still playing until afternoon the next day.
Also, in my experience new batteries (in any device) often don't reach their full potential until they have had a few charging cycles under their belt I only got about 6 hours after the first charge, then it got much better after a few drain/charge cycles.
Let us know how you get on.

My new 13' retina mac book always fails about the keyboard! Is something wrong with the hardware?

I have bought the newest 13' retina mac book. But the keyboard failed 3 times the first day!! I was really upset about that. Some discussions on the website show chrome may be the problem. But after I unstall the chrome, the problem still exists. And it has failed about 6 times till now.
What should I do?
Thanks

You should return it for a full refund until Apple fixes this issue. It could be a week or a month before apple has a fix.

Question about the new battery for zen micro/ zen microph

i just reacently noticed that creative has a new bettery the?Li-Ion Battery (830mAh) for ZEN MICROPHOTO/ ZEN MICR0 on there website they say it gives longer battery lifeand i was wondering how true this could be because i would like to get more than 6 to 8 hours out of my zen micro

The Zen MicroPhoto uses more power than the Zen Micro would, so it has a better battery. But you can use this battery with the Zen Micro and it should last longer than your original battery.

Getting Started with the BlackBerry Classic

Reposted from the Inside BlackBerry Help Blog
Whether you are new or experienced with BlackBerry 10, here’s a quick guide to get you started with the BlackBerry Classic!
Step 1 – Insert your SIM and media card
The first step you’ll want to take after unboxing your new BlackBerry Classic is inserting your nano SIM card and media card. When you have your nano SIM and media card (optional) handy, use the tool that is provided in the BlackBerry Classic box to open the SIM card tray.
To do this, push the tip of the tool, or a paperclip, into the hole that is to the left of SIM on the side of your device. Doing so pops the tray out at which point you can pull it all the way out.
After doing this, with the metal contacts of your nano SIM card facing away from you, place the nano SIM into the tray, then push the tray into the slot. Repeat these steps to insert your media card by inserting the tool, or a paperclip, in the hole to the right of SD along the left side of your device.
Tip: If you don’t have the right SIM card please contact your service provider and ask them for help switching to a nano SIM card. Please avoid using a larger SIM card that has been cut to a smaller size as this may cause your device to not recognize the SIM card. Using a modified SIM card may also result in it getting stuck since the modified SIM card may be thicker than the required nano SIM card. When you have finished inserting your nano SIM and media card the next step is completing the BlackBerry Classic setup wizard.
Step 2 – Complete the set up wizard
If you haven’t already, turn on your BlackBerry Classic by pressing and holding the power button on the top of your device so you can complete the setup process. This process guides you through connecting to a Wi-Fi network, setting up a new BlackBerry ID, or signing into your existing BlackBerry ID, as well as showing you several fundamental gestures.
Tip: If you don’t have a BlackBerry ID you’ll be able to create one during the setup process and, in the event you don’t remember your BlackBerry ID password, use the Forgot Password option to reset your BlackBerry ID password. Don’t forgot to confirm your BlackBerry ID, which can help you recover your password in case you ever forget it!
When you have finished the setup wizard, the new and improved Setup app will open automatically.
Within this app you’ll be able to complete the following actions that will help you learn more about your new device and customize everything just the way you like
Find out what’s different about BlackBerry 10
Understand the various gestures used throughout your device
Add your email and social networking accounts
Transfer data from your previous device (See step 3 to learn more!)
Customize your device notifications
Setup BBM so you can connect with family and friends
Set a device password
And more!
When you have finished going through the various options within the Setup App, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to minimize it. You can always access the Setup app in the future by tapping on the Setup icon as well.
Step 3 – Transfer data from your previous device
If you are switching from another device, whether it be BlackBerry OS, BlackBerry 10, Android or iPhone, there are several different methods you can use to help transfer data to your new device.
For a visual overview, check out the following videos that guide you through this process. The Setup app on your BlackBerry Classic can also help you do this, just open the Setup app, tap Switching Devices and follow the provided steps.
Android device to BlackBerry 10 smartphone
BlackBerry OS smartphone to BlacKBerry 10 smartphone
iOS device to BlackBerry 10 smartphone
If you encounter any issues transferring your data, or would like some guidance, stop by the Device Switch board within the BlackBerry Support Community Forums and ask the community.
If you switch from another device don’t forget to perform a security wipe on your old device to remove your personal information. If your previous device was a BlackBerry device, check out our post on how to perform a security wipe.
If you use a different type of device, review the user documentation to learn how to reset it to factory settings and remove your personal information.
Step 4 – Secure your new device and turn on BlackBerry Protect
If you haven’t already set a device password, I cannot stress enough how important this is. Doing so can help prevent unwanted access if you leave your device unattended and, in the event you misplace your device, no one will be able to view your personal information. To set a device password, complete the following steps:
On the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen
Tap Settings followed by Security and Privacy
Tap Device Password
Set the Device Password switch to On
Enter your desired password twice
After setting a device password make sure you verify that BlackBerry Protect is enabled on your device by going to Settings followed by BlackBerry Protect.
When enabled, BlackBerry Protect can help you locate, lock, or wipe your device where you are, provided your device is connected to the mobile or Wi-Fi network. To learn more about BlackBerry Protect go to http://protect.blackberry.com.
Step 5 – Where to learn more and find help
The easiest way to learn more about your new BlackBerry Classic is by opening the Help app, which contains a lot of useful information ranging from tips and tricks to how-to overviews. You can also view, download, or save the user guide for your device by visiting http://docs.blackberry.com.
I would also recommend reviewing BlackBerry Classic how-to demo videos that show the various features and functions offered by your device. These demos can be viewed on your device, computer, or tablet. Several BlackBerry Training courses are also available – make sure you try these out on your computer, or device to learn more about the BlackBerry Classic and BlackBerry 10 OS version 10.3.1.
What's New in BlackBerry 10 OS Version 10.3.1
Introducing BlackBerry 10 OS Version 10.3.1
Supporting BlackBerry 10 OS Version 10.3.1
Introducing the BlackBerry Classic smartphone
Another great way to learn more is by taking the BlackBerry 10 Pop Quiz, which you can find within BlackBerry World. This app offers short quizzes that can help you learn more about your device and it only takes a few minutes to complete each test – it’s the perfect coffee break companion!
To get the BlackBerry 10 Pop Quiz, open BlackBerry World and search for it or click here. Another great resource to learn more about your device, beyond this blog of course, is the BlackBerry Classic support site located at http://www.blackberry.com/classicsupport

Developing mobile apps for the blackberry platform

Hello all
I'm interested in developing mobile apps for the Blackberry smartphone and read that the best way to do it is with Java. Any advice on how to do this?
I would be starting from scratch as I don't have a programming background but am keen to learn. Also can anyone recommend any introductory books that are really good at learning Java?
Many Thanks
praetor

Hi praetor,
welcome to the SDN.
Programming for a mobile device is sort of advanced and you need to know the basics first. As you have no programming background this is even more important.
Do yourself a favor and forget about the blackberry for a few months and learn programming basics first.
Here are a few links to get you started with the Java SE (Standard Edition, for your local PC, nothing fancy):
