Blackberry 9300 g3 curve and Eduroam

I have recently bought a Blackberry 9300 3g curve but I am not able to connect to Eduroam at my work (University of Twente) and I am frustrated. I tried several things but simply it did not connect. However, I can connect to the WiFi network of the university if I login as a guest. But it is valid for one day only. I am sure that some one must have found a way to connect to Eduroam in the Netherlands and will be very grateful if you can help me in setting up my blackberry.

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!

  • 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

  • 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

  • Blackberry 9300 and 2012 4Runner Bluetooth marking emails as "unread"

    I recently synced my Blackberry 9300 with my bluetooth in my 2012 Toyota 4Runner. The functionality is fine as far as receiving calls and emails; however, every time I get in the car with the blackberry, about 10 random emails that were already marked as "read" become marked as "unread" on my Blackberry and in my Outlook.
    How can this be fixed?

    Hi all,
    I have the same problem happenning on a 2012 Toyota Rav 4 Limited, issue is really anoying when you receive high volume of e-mail like I do and be forced to go trough them to re-mark them as read once or twice a day. 
    To get rid of the erroneous message count the only solution that I have found so far is removing the battery from the headset. I have check with the IT crewl at the office and they do not have a clue why this happening, I have paired my BB with other vehicles (other than Toyota Brand) to see if is handset related and there is no issue.
    I will approach the Toyota dealer as well to place a claim.

  • Blackberry 9300 curve

    Hello my blackberry now suddenly off and I already take battery and put again but it doesn't work. need help immediately thanks

    Hi there,
    The first step is to try charging it for a few hours. Does that work? If not, see if you can try a different battery. In some cases, a bad battery can prevent the BlackBerry from booting up, and batteries can become damaged if exposed to extreme heat or cold.
    Also, when you plug your BlackBerry in, do you see a red LED light turn on?
    Keep us posted and hopefully we can get you back up and running.
    If you want to thank someone for their comment, do so by clicking the Thumbs Up icon.

  • Blackberry 9300 White Screen Solution?

    Device info

    Apps and free space

    Did a battery pull fix your issue? Temporarily
    Apps installed and their version if possible. (Go to Settings, then Options, then applications):
    WhatsApp, BlackBerry Messenger, Twitter, Screen Muncher
    My Question is if anyone can help me with the White Screen issue I am having, I took my phone into a shop to get it repaired the water indication on the screen had changed to pink and they said that they will clean the device and get rid of any water damage, before I had it cleaned it would go white screen very often but now it has been cleaned it I can use the phone it only seems to do it when I attempt to make a call, I have to perform a battery pull to get rid of the solid white screen, then when I restart the phone it lets me make a call. The staff in the shop I took it to said the screen seems to be working perfectly fine and that if the clean does not fix it then I will have to have the screen replaced which I dont see will help if it is working fine.
    So I would really appreciate any help with this problem
    Thanks

  • Blackberry 9300 - how to get activated by enterprise server addition

    Hi All,
      I have got my new blackberry 9300 smartphone from UK and using in India.. I tried registering with Enterprise server addition and could not make it..
    and also my phone is saved with UK settings ..
    Please help me out.....
    Thanks..
    Sunil

    You missed my first question -- are you on corporate BES? If not, then you should not be using the Enterprise selection at all.
    If you are on Personal email (e.g., Yahoo, Gmail, POP, etc.) and you are not seeing "Personal" in the email setup wizard (e.g., if you only see "Enterprise"), then your account from your carrier is inadequate to enable that option and you must contact them for assistance in adding full BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) to your account (at whatever they will charge, btw). See this FAQ for general guidance:
    http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/What_do_I_need_a_Data_Plan_for%3F
    Once you have the proper account, you should see Personal email added to the email setup wizard.

  • Blackberry 9300 keeps turning off

    I got my bb curve 9300 2 years and 1 month ago and now its started plaayin up. It'll jut turn off at random times and the battery will be on 60% or watever and it'll just turn off. I keep having to put it in charge and it just reeboots itself. Once it even said "battery drained" and it just shut down even though the battery was at about 70%. Is any1 havin the same problem and if any1 knows how to fix it PLEASE REPLY. It's started to get so annoying because I have 2 charge about 3 times a day now. Btw Im on O2 and my "mobile network" and wifi is on most of of the time but I never use bluetooth. I also use bbm.  

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
    It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
    Obtain a known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • I have a 8330 curve and would like to force roaming on it

    I have a 8330 curve and would like to force roaming on it. I get signal from my carrier but signal isn't very good and phone will get signal and then loose it. There are time it locks on roaming tower but won't stay there and when this happens i have lots of dropped calls. thanks for any help richard

    You could use Google Calendar and Google Contacts. Both synchronize effortlessly with blackberry (assuming you have a data contract) and both can sync with Thunderbird with the help of suitable add-ons such as Lightning for the calendar and gContactSync etc for your Thunderbird address book.
    As regards the calendar, I use it to sync Events, I can't speak for Tasks. They seem to have a cinderella status in Lightning. :-(

  • Blackberry 9300 browser not supported uploading picture?

    Hi, I'm trying to sell on my local selling page on facebook, try upload picture then says my browser is not supported to uploaded photos, why is it saying it, anyone know wat I need to do to fix it, says when I wanna upload pictire to facebook profile? Blackberry 9300 I've got , working fine other day please help thank you

    Sorry for the late reply. I don't think you have the updated version of the Facebook App because the last few versions of it allows you to upload photos right then and there. Even if you are viewing photos on your phone's album, pressing the Menu button gives you the option to send it to Facebook and it will upload it right there as long as you are logged in to Facebook. The last few versions don't connect you to a mobile site if you upload. Please check it and download the updated version of it.

  • Faulty In-Warranty Blackberry 9300 - What do we do?

    Hi, I am new to the forum so forgiv me if there is an obvious answer to this.
    We have a faulty Blackberry 9300 that we purchased in early December 2010.
    There is bad distortion, keeps call failing and freezing.
    The supplier that we purchased it from will not take it back as is beyond their 30-day purchase period and we are now stuck with what we can do.
    Can anyone please let us know what we can do or where we can send it as should still be under manufacturer warranty?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    Sorry to hear of your difficulty.
    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.
    If not, then more information will be needed before making suggestions. Please provide as much as you are able of the the following
    Blackberry Model.
    Carrier Name.
    Do you have a Data Plan?
    Operating System Version go to Menu > Options > About - it looks like v5.0.0.681
    Memory for Device and SD Card Options > Memory
    Any error statement or code.
    The Exact nature of problem - the more info the better.
    When this started and whether it started just after an update or new App download and which App/s theme/s download.
