Blackberry 9220 getting hold often

Hello everyone.
I am new to BB world and currently using BB9220 which is purchased on 23rd Feb. I am quite disspointed with the device. Often my phone gets hanged and i need to pull out the battery to reboot the device.
The problem is if some body calls me, i'm not able to attend the call..
The phone just simply hangs displaying 'incoming call xyz number" on the screen. I am not able to receive the call.
Moreover I'm not using any applications other than "TEXT MESSAGES" and even not INTERNET. 
Due to this problem, i require to remove the battery for three to four times in a day, as the phone gets hanged quite often...
kindly advice what i should do..

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, see what happens.
If the behavior ceases, then think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
But if the behavior continues in Safe Mode, then you may need to consider more drastic actions -- WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload, and the "Bare Bones" OS Reload Process. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup to your PC...please review the Backup link in my auto-sig on this post for instructions.
Good luck and let us know!

  • My blackberry 9220 curve is getting auto reboot every time

    My blackberry 9220 curve is getting auto reboot every time. I have updated software, delete third party application, but still facing the auto reboot issue.

    Well, I don't agree with your conclusions, but I won't battle you. So, what would you like to try?
    Given your decided diagnosis, the only thing I can think of is the "Bare Bones OS Reload Procedure" to attempt to narrow down the precise causal item:
    Load your OS "bare bones"...if anything is optional, do not install it.
    If the behavior presents immediately, then try a different OS with step 1
    If the behavior does not immediately present, then run for as long as it takes for you to be sure that the behavior will not present.
    Add one thing -- no matter how tempting, just one.
    If the behavior does not present immediately, then again run for long enough to be sure it will not have the same problem
    Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are loaded or the behavior presents
    When the behavior presents, you know the culprit...the last thing you loaded.
    If the behavior does not re-present, then you know that either step 1 or 2 cured it.
    If the behavior presents no matter what, then you likely have a hardware level issue for which no amount of OS or software can cure.

  • Can I get hold of the setup file for an earlier version of Desktop Manager

    Hello,
    I've been using my Blackberry Bold 9700 trouble free for well over 18 months now.  The other day I was prompted to upgrade the OS to level 6, which I did with no problem.  I then noticed that there was also an upgrade for the Desktop Manager software.  I also upgraded this (to version 6).  I'm now really wishing I hadn't....
    Ever since the upgrade I get the BSOD upon initially connecting my BB.  I uninstalled the desktop manager and did a complete reinstall.  This, if anything made matters worse as I then found that any USB device would cause the BSOD once I plugged it in.
    The only way I've been  able to solve this is by totally uninstalling the Desktop Manager and then also going and uninstalling and then reinstalling all the USB controllers from the Windows device manager.
    All I really need the desktop manager for is to tether my BB to get internet acces when I'm off site, and I'd really like to go back to the earlier version but cannot find anywhere to download the setup file.
    I'm running XP Pro by the way.  It's obviously an incompatibility with something on specifically on my laptop which is causing the problem.  I tried installing Desktop Manager 6 onto another laptop running XP Pro and it seems to be fine on there.  I've not really got the time to mess around with this much more though so would prefer just to downgrade back to the previous version on this laptop if someone could point me in the right direction to get hold of the setup file.
    Many thanks.

  • Getting hold of accelerator squiggles.

    How do I get hold of the L&F appropriate visual representation of a keystroke?
    I particular, I'm trying to generate some help text, that refers to certain menu accelerators. In the menu, at least on my Mac with Nimbus L&F, accelerator keystrokes have a small icon or squiggle. For example, a command-Z accelerator is drawn as a four-leaf clover symbol with letter Z next to it. The delete key is drawn as a box with an X in it, return key is drawn as a bent arrow, and so on. Under Windows XP with Nimbus, the same command-Z menu accelerator is now shown as "Ctrl+Z" (note that it uses getMenuShortcutKeyMask(), so the modifier is variable between platforms)
    Is there any way that I can get hold of this symbolic representation, for inclusion in a styled text pane? Are these squiggles unicode characters or images?
    -Ron.

    You have to go through your wireless service provider to get to BlackBerry. If your provider can't resolve the issue they can (though sometimes they try to "fob" you off and not escalate and you have to push them hard to do it.) Blame the carrier for that, not BlackBerry.
    If you don't go through your wireless service provider then you can contact BlackBerry directly at 1-800-BLK-BERRY but it's $50 per support incident.

  • BBM Upgrade in error - Needing to get hold of Old version of BBM

    Hi I have a BlackBerry Curve 8520 and Vodacom Carrier in South Africa. I stupidly upgraded my BBM instant messaging this morning and it so much worse, so slow and it wasn't even working properly.  I enjoyed the older version and DESPERATELY trying to get hold of the older version to re-install in. Please if anyone can tell me how I can re-install the older version of BBM 5.0.0 I would be so grateful.
    I have checked the Desktop software disc I received with my BB and it doesn't seem to have any Operating software on it.
    Please help me out here..am desperate.
    Many Thanks,

    Hello,
    I think you can try two things : the soft reboot, and if it does not work, the hard reboot. Don't worry, you can't lose data with these two reboots.
    Soft reboot :
    1) Hit the three following keys at the same time :
    - Alt
    - Right Shift
    - Delete
    2) wait 2 minutes for the Blackberry to wake up.
    Hard reboot :
    1) your Blackberry device is on
    2) remove the battery and wait for a minute
    3) Put the battery back
    4) wait 5 minutes for the device to wake up.
    Please tell us if it works for you.

  • Printing to a Windows shared printer, keep getting "Hold for Authentication" when I'm on the Windows shared network and can browse the computers.

    I have had two MacBook Pros now, and this has been an issue in Mountain Lion and Mavericks. I've got a shared printer on the local Windows network (it's a USB printer shared via the network and the computer), and the other Windows computers in the house can print to it no problem. The Mac sees it no problem, yet whenever I try to print to it, I just get "Hold for Authentication."
    Like I said, persists over Mountain Lion and Mavericks. No other computer in the house has any issues printing to it. I've installed the drivers for the printer as well (Brother HL-2240).
    I've tried to follow the instructions here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23268762#23268762 but the printer isn't listed in Keychain Access.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance!

    Well, that isn't too useful. Try this instead: Adding a printer shared by a Windows computer via SMB/CIFS.

  • How to get hold of the XPRequest object in the Login View

    Hi all,
    I need to customize the Login View to pre-populate the loginname field when a user hits the page. The difficult part is that the user is using PKI Cards, and I need to use the following server-side code fragment to retreive the Login Name.
    String loginName = "";Object o = request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate");
    // Got certificate => Windows XP PKI Card Userif (o != null) { String dnstring = ""; int startIndex = 0, endIndex = 0; java.security.cert.X509Certificate clientcert[] = (java.security.cert.X509Certificate[]) o; dnstring = clientcert[0].getSubjectDN().toString().toUpperCase(); // Gets the Login name // This is obtained by getting the portion of the string after "UID=" and befroe the next comma. startIndex = dnstring.indexOf("UID=") + 4; endIndex = dnstring.indexOf(",", startIndex+1); loginName = dnstring.substring(startIndex, endIndex);}
    The problem is that I can't seem to get hold of a XPRequest object (the Plumtree object used to wrap the JSP request object) in the Login View. I need this to call the request.GetAttribute method to retrieve the client certificate.
    Anyone knows how to do this? Or maybe I should be customizing another component instead?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

  • How to efficiently get hold of N randomly selected keys out of X?

    I am writing some benchmark programs for Coherence caches and would need a way to as efficently as possible get hold of a "fairly random" selection of N keys from the cache out of the total X keys (where X >> N).
    With "fairly random" I am in particular looking for a way to get keys somewhat uniformly spread over all partitions.
    First i tried picking the first N keys obtained when iterating the key-set but they all seemed to come from just a few partitions (perhaps iteration is performed partition by partition?). Next I tried some algortihms I have used in the past to pick random keys from in memory-map (where one basically iterate and if a randomly generated value between 0.0 and 1.0 exceed a percentage calculatwed as the factor N/X the key is included. This does work (one may occasionally need to iterate the map more than once) but is VERY slow since iterating the key-set of a large cache remotly is kind of expensive.
    All sugestions are warmly appreciated - the best would be solutions that do not require anything to be added to the pof-config (i.e. not rely on custome aggregators or invocables etc) - this because I would liek to be able to easilly use my benchmark as part of several applications without having to modify there configuration files!

    Hi Magnus,
    you can go the other way round:
    With key-association you can ensure that your request goes to the partition you want it to go. You just need to generate a reverse mapping array between partition ids and integer associated key values which are mapped to that partititon.
    You can use this method for it:
    public static int[] generateReverseAssociatedKeysForService(DistributedCacheService service) {
         KeyPartitioningStrategy keyPartitioningStrategy = service.getKeyPartitioningStrategy();
         int partitionCount = service.getPartitionCount();
         int[] reverseKeys = new int[partitionCount];
         int i=1;
         while (partitionCount > 0) {
              Integer associatedKey = new Integer(i);
              int partitionId = keyPartitioningStrategy.getKeyPartition(associatedKey);
              if (reverseKeys[partitionId] == 0) {
                   reverseKeys[partitionId] = i;
                   --partitionCount;
              ++i;
         return reverseKeys;
    }After this, you generate an equal amount of entries for each partitions with composite keys which implement key association in a way that it returns an integer which maps to your designated partition id to serve as your data. Alternatively you can sort an existing key-set into per-partition keysets.
    After this, you just generate evenly spread random numbers between 0 and (partitionCount - 1) (both inclusive) which random number you use as an index to the reverse map to get an associated key value. Then you can generate another random number if you have multiple keys within a partition, or choose a key from the per-partition keyset for that partition if you have a set of existing keys.
    This way you get keys which are as evenly spread between partitions as your random generator generating your associated key indexes is spread.
    Best regards,
    Robert

  • Heating Issue in BlackBerry 9220

    Hey, I took my BlackBerry 9220 few days back and configured my enterprise mail. Post activation of enterprise mails my handset start heating some time due to which my battery got down. Kindly suggest some way if I can use enterprise mails without heating. Thanks.

    Hi,
        I really don't think that the heating is anyway related to the activation of ur enterprise email...it might feel so cz the heating started after the activation only...actually, the issue is with the battery and the issue started at the same time when u activated ur email...had u not activated the mails at that time,then also the issue wud hve appeared.
        I would suggest to replace the battery if thats still in guarantee(normally, BB batteries hve 6 month of warrenty)...that should solve the prob...

  • Blackberry 9220 not starting

    I had kept my blackberry 9220 in my hand bag while i was in a lecture. After an hour I wanted to check time but it wasnt working. i removed battery then tried to turn it on but it didn't. I connected it to wall charger but it still isnt starting, even LED isnt flashing.

    The scenario goes like this sir. My BB has been automatically switched off because my battery has totally been drained for a long day of use. After almost 30mins, I charged it and stay it for about 2hrs of charging. Ive noticed after two hours that there is no led light existing, even the screen of my bb indicating that my unit is charging. So I pull my charger and I attempt to turn my phone on by simply pull-out my battery and returning it back to the unit but I wait for couple of minutes but it doesnt turned on. The next day i borrowed my friends bb9220 full-charged battery which is the same unit i have right now and insert it in my phone but unfortunately it doesnt turned on...So I also checked my battery by inserting it in my friends unit, it was fully drained but when i charge it the led light turns on as well as the screen of her phone indicating that the battery is charging which it doesnt happen in my phone. So when i read this forum, i followed the 4h15m trick but nothing happens. That was the scenario which I think my bb9220 encounter some problems. Hope you can help me for this.Thank you and God BLess...
