BB Curve 8320 software problem

I got my BB Curve 8320 today ... everything working well and I've been able to figure things out myself.  Amazing!
BUT ... I went into BB Desktop to remove some applications I don't want.  Device was plugged in ... this is the error message I got:
"BB Desktop Software does not have BB Device Software for the device that you have connected to computer."
My device says:  Platform - 2.5.0.36   and  Application - 4.2.2.180
BB DM version:  4.3.0.17
So ... what does all this mean?  And what do I have to do to fix it?  (I knew everything was going too well!)
Thanks ...

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    All carriers official versions are available via this portal:

    I've no idea which carriers have the version you desire...you'll have to dig through to find it.
    Good luck!

  • Problems syncing Blackberry Curve 8320 with Outlook 2007

    Hello all. I have a problem that seems to be somewhat common. I've done some searching through the messages but so far, no luck.
    I just got my Curve 8320 and I installed Desktop Manager 4.5 that came with it. At work, the calendar I want to use is in Outlook 2007. It's a work calendar but this is not a work phone. Anyhow, it wouldn't work at all, but I changed one of the options on the phone (based on a comment here) from "Facebook" to the other option (my personal email, not associated with work or Outlook 2007, but that was my only other choice).
    Then it began pulling records from Outlook to the phone, but approximately half way through it gives me this error under a window called "Intellisync": "The operation terminated unexpectedly."
    I can't get it to go any further than this. Any ideas?
    Solved!

    Morning.
    Let's try this.  Read through this thread.  You probably have a corrupt record somewhere in your calendar.

  • How can I transfer all my data from my Pearl to my new Curve 8320?

    Help! I have a Mac and have downloaded every bit of software/manual/information/help that I can find and still can't figure out how to transfer all my data from my dying Pearl 8100 to my new Curve 8320. Any suggestions?

    Hi Vanessa,
    There are two ways to solve your problem.
    1) Configure the birthday and anniversary events you have created for last year so that they repeat every year on the same date.
    2) Enter the birthdays in your Address Book for the corresponding contacts — create the contacts if you don't have them in your Address Book yet — and then tell iCal to display the birthday calendar.
    Hope this helps

  • Curve 8320 corrupts OS periodically and then cannot boot (blinking LED only)

    I have a T-Mobile BB Curve 8320 that I've had for about 9 months, and I have what appears to be a recurring problem.
    Three times now, the phone has corrupted its OS, and it will not boot. Each time it does it, the symptoms are first the phone is non responsive, and just shows the spinning hourglass cursor. The last time it did it while in the Mail app, which is the one I use almost exclusively. The phone appears to lock up, showing the wait cursor indefinitely. This time I waited a half hour, and it was clear that it wasn't coming back. So I pushed the power button, and it shut down the phone. But then when I tried to turn it back on, the screen never came up, and it just blinked the red LED "forever." (It was about 18-20 hours before I got around to trying to reload it.)  The first time this happened was when the phone was running the OS version it shipped with, which I think was 4.3, but I don't recall. But now it has done it twice while running 4.5.0.81, which is the OS distribution T-Mobile makes available for the Curve.
    The first two times it did it, I used the application loader to wipe the device and reload the OS. When in this state, BB desktop manager doesn't see the device since it can't boot. But if you click through to the application loader, you can get it to load. (Or you can run the application loader outside of BB desktop manager)
    This time, the application loader started up, offered the choice of what to load, and then proceeded into the next phases. Erasing the device succeeds, as does the next phase where it loads the OS. But then it gets to where it is loading application modules, with a progress bar for each module and one for the overall progress. It got halfway through the overall progress, and failed with an "unspecified error", suggesting to try again. I tried it three times, and it failed the same way each time.
    After calling T-Mobile, they bounced me over to RIM, and the first guy had me go through the app loader again with the same result. When he started pursuing USB connectivity issues, I asked to speak to someone else. (There are other devices on this system, both mass storage and input, and none of them ever show connectivity issues. )
    The second tech had me rerun the application loader, but this time only select the core OS, leaving out all the apps. This succeeded, and then he had me rerun it, loading the rest of the applications. This also succeeded.
    But the problem I still have is this. There is no explanation why the phone corrupts itself every couple of months, or why loading the OS and the applications in one step failed to work _repeatedly_.  I believe the device has a bad memory address, and the two step OS load simply danced around it. And it is that which is causing the phone to corrupt its own OS to the point that it cannot boot.
    The tech tried to pass of the corruption due to loading third party applications, and while I can accept that a rogue application can corrupt memory locations that it has the ability to write to, I don't know if the BB OS/device uses any form of protected memory, or if apps are essentially unrestrained. The only third party applications I load on this are the Google app, with Gmail, and Opera Mini.
    To be honest, if the BB OS is that fragile that I can't even load these two applications on it, I'll be trading it for a different email capable phone.
    Anyway, I'm looking to find if anyone else has a phone that repeatedly gets corrupted so it can't boot, and requires a complete reload. Also, is there anyway to test the memory on the phone? I'm going to call T-Mobile back and try to get them to swap my phone, because I can't afford to spend three hours on the phone with tech support every couple of months when my phone dies.
    thanks!

    Thanks for the reply. Our cases sound a bit different. I seldom use Desktop Manager, as I sync through BES. I do use it for backup though.
    But over the time my phone corrupting itself has happened, I've upgraded from BB OS 4.3 to 4.5, which required an update to Desktop Manager, and following that I upgraded to a new computer. So I've changed computers, BB Desktop software, and BB OS software, and the problem has happened across all of those changes.
    You should have been able to restore the OS even if it was corrupt. Desktop Manager won't recognize the device if it won't boot, but application loader will still find it. The first two times I did it, I used instructions basically like this: http://crackberry.com/blackberry-101-lecture-12-how-reload-operating-system-nuked-blackberry?page=4
    But since then I've found I can just access application loader via BB Desktop Manager and do the same thing. I did notice when my OS reload kept failing this last time, that using application loader directly showed more of the failure message. It still wasn't anything useful, but when I reran the reload via Desktop Manager, I recognized the error was the same, but noted that I didn't see all of the output of the standalone application loader.

  • My Media Card keeps Rebooting my BB Curve 8320

    I recently got a replacement bb Curve 8320.  I had a media card in my old phone and when I put it in my new phone it kept rebooting my cell phone every 1-2 minutes.  I went and bought a 4GB Media Card, had the guy at T-Mobile Format it and then went home and placed all of the photos, videos, music and purchased ring tones from my old media card to my new one.  When I placed the new Media Card into my phone it keeps doing the same thing.  I get the hour glass and then the phone reboots over and over again.  Someone please help!!!!  The phone has been wiped out and all applications have been updated, so I am not sure why this is happening.
    Very FRUSTRATED!,
    Thanks,
    Jes

    its also best when installing the 4.5 software to your BB, that the media card is removed from the BB during the installation. It has been known to cause these problems. Once the software has been fully reinstalled, you can then reinsert the card.
    If your card was in for a previous installtion, best to format the card within the BB again.
    babylabes
    In my very first post I gave you directions on how to locate the exact version installed on your BB. It is very useful information to be able to help you. Also why do you plug the card into your PC to put files on it, you can plug your BB into your PC and transfer them to it that way. and in your case I would follow the instructions of making sure the .dat files are not being copied over, and make sure you dont have anything that is not media content. something you are transferring is corrupted. dont copy the folders over. Copy content in the folder to the new empty folder on the BB. (reformat while in the BB first so you have the folders)

  • Migrate from Curve 8320 with OS 4.5

    How to migrate data from my Curve 8320 with OS4 to Q10 smartphone? BB Link is only for OS5 and above.

    Well, there is no problem syncing the contacts and calendar. Unfortunately, the Link software for the BB10 devices does not sync tasks and memos. For that I recommend signing up for Evernote and transferring that data to Evernote. Then you can integrate Evernote as an Account in the Account settings.
    Make sure your old device is sync'd up with Outlook.
    Then download and install the Link software for the Q10 and set up the sync.
    Do you have an email account somewhere? If so, where? GMail? Outlook.com?

  • MAC OSX - Wont mount media card on Curve 8320

    Hi,
    Just to get it out of the way. I have:
    1. Turned Media card on
    2. Turned Mass Storage Mode on
    3. Enabled Mass Storage mode when connected (yes)
    4. Formatted the media card countless times
    5. Enabled password on Curve 8320
    6. Updated Curve OS to latest 4.5
    Despite all my efforts, the media card does not mount under OSX (10.5.6)
    I can take pictures and save to the media card so I know its there and working, but I cant see the card under OSX or Windows (VMWare) no matter what I try.
    Any help is deeply appreciated.
    L. Zuniga

    I'm having nearly the same problem with my 2 Verizon Curve 8330's
    I'm using OS X 10.5.8.
    One device has 4.5.0.77, the other has 4.5.0.138.
    Media card is on, Mass Storage is on, Enable Mass Storage when connected is on.
    The card works fine on the device - eg, I can save pictures, etc to it, and the device can read the media that I put on the card via a card reader.
    The USB works fine, eg PocketMac can see the device and sync my calendar and contacts. If I connect the device to a Windows machine, Desktop Manager can detect it and I can install software, etc.
    BUT - the media card is not detected as a mass storage device - it never appears as a mounted volume, and PocketMac (and Media Sync on Windows) are unable to detect the card.
    I've tried two different cards in each device, connecting to Mac and Windows machines, with the result I described above every time.
    I know these media card problems are very common, but I've tried every solution I can find (checking settings, reformatting cards, uninstalling/re-installing drivers and software, etc) and nothing seems to help.
    Since the card works fine on the device, and the USB connectivity seems to be fine, and my mass storage settings are all correct - what could I possibly be doing wrong?
    Thanks,
    Sean

  • How can I get Video Recording! on my Blackberry curve 8320 ???????????? HELP PLEASSEEEEE

    Hi, Im a bet stressed out i just got the blackberry Curve 8320 from Tmobile and realized it has no Video recording however the person that sold it to me says they downloaded a program like a converter or something and they used to have video recording on it.  Can you please tell me how i can get video recording on mine Please. Thank you.

    to use video you need an upgrade. The name is handheld device software OS. I believe you have 4.2. 4.5 is required.
    You have to wait for TMobile to release the 4.5 OS.

    I have may icons but not one for Video Camera.  I have one for Media and when I click on it there is an option for videos but can't figure out how to record from this location or perhaps this option is only for watching videos.  Thoughts/suggestions?  Also, how do I check software version?  Thanks SO much!

  • Curve 8320 How to read and input Japanese?

    i've got Curve 8320 with UK orange carrier. i've already downloaded Desktop Manager version 4.6 with Media on my PC. I want to know where i can download software for japanese support to my mobile? Orange UK seem doesnt have East Asia or Chinese, Japanese support in https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/browseSoftware.do
    BlackBerry Handheld Software v4.5.0.75 (Multilanguage)
    Package Version: 4.5.0.75
    which doent include Asian languages. many thanks in advance

    Wireless carriers disfavour that but you can install device os for your device model but from another wireless carrier.
    Check this link: Blackberry OS FAQ
    Find a carrier who provides device OS with asian language support download OS package and install on desktop computer.
    After that delete Vendor.xml from installed files.
    Connect your device to desktop computer and run BB Desktop Manager/App Loader to update the device OS.
    Do not forget to backup all your sensitive data before updating the device OS.

  • BB Curve 8320 OS 4.5 hangs periodically, makes the phone unusable

    Hi there,
    I have a T-Mobile Curve 8320 running OS 4.5 whcih I updated from the web on my laptop, and installed to the BB device via a USB cable. I also am running the latest BB desktop software, 4.7.
    I'm having hanging issues where a clock icon appears on the screen and makes the BB impossible to use for several minutes. This happens several times throughout the day and is very frustrating.
    I do not use a media card. I am, however, using Google's synch software for my calendar. I wonder if that's causing the hang.
    I went to Options/About and see this:
    BlackBerry 8320
    smartphone (EDGE, Wi-Fi) 
    v4.5.0.81 (Platform 2.7.0.78)
    Cryptographic Kernel v3.8.5.32a
    Micro Edition Configuration: CLDC-1.1
    Micro Edition Profile: MIDP-2.0
    Micro Edition JTWI Version: 1.0
    Micro Edition Media Version: 1.1
    Micro Edition PIM Version: 1.0
    Micro Edition File Version: 1.0
    Micro Edition Bluetooth Version: 1.1
    Micro Edition Location Version: 1.0.1
    Micro Edition Security and Trust Services (APDU) Version: 1.0
    WLAN Version: 2.3.0.74  
    If you can help me solve this hanging issue, I'd be very grateful.

    Low Memory.  4mb file free is severely lacking. You need upwards of 15mb file free.
    First thing? Check the File Free at Options > Status, what is the number at File Free? Now, remove the battery of your device, hold a minute, replace and reboot. What is the File Free now?

  • Do you think this is a software problem?

    I bought a refurbished Torch 9810 from this store known as Cash Generator in the UK. It's in near new condition, was only £120 if there's anyone else who lives in the UK.
    Started it, it was rebooted from security wipe. Set up everything.
    HOWEVER two issues!
    1- THe device does not recognise that when headphones are inserted! It only plays music through the speakers..
    2- If I try to install an app then it just says that the app world has encountered a problem and needs to close.
    It's on the factory default BB7 ie. 7.0.0.540.. Wait a sec this is the original v of BB7 right?
    What should I do!? I remember my Curve 9360 had the same issue but all it needed was a reset. I tried a battery pull on the torch but same problem.
    Should I update to 7.1 and see if anhything is fixed?
    Any idea how much it would cost to fix this if it is physical problem!? yeah, ovsli I'm gonna complain to the store. However, I got it for a ridicolously good price! If it costs about £50 to fix then I guess it'd be worth it..
    Other question: How long does it take to charge a torch via wall socket? Thought I'd put that there where appropiate.
    Thanks in advance

    Should you upgrade to OS 7.1?  Yes, I always suggest the latest update.
    Do I think it's a software problem?  Possibly, so upgrade your OS and see if that helps.  If not, run the phone back to the store for a replacement or refund.
    App World needs to close?  That's probably just temporary.  Upgrade your OS, do a battery pull and see if that resolves the issue.
    Post back if you have more questions.
