Blackberry CURVE 8310 BBM Update Error

Hey Guys I just recently took my aunts blackberry 8310 Curve from her and had it configured with my provider here in Pakistan. Now in its current state
-The browser is fine, loads everything swell
-BBM works great I can send bbms etc etc images work fine too
-Whatsapp worked great as well again images etc all went fine
Now when highlighted and clicked on the 'Upgrade Blackberry Messenger' icon I was taken to download page for the latest version here when I selected my language and clicked download the download bar appears and then after about 5 seconds an HOUR GLASS appears followed by an error saying BAD REQUEST.
Note:
I tried downloading the faceable app from the same website on the blackberry and that download came through just fine, fast as well.
Also worth nothing is I have updated my blackberry 8310 to its latest software update.
Again in advance thanks to all of you who could help me with my problem as im loving this device aslready its my first BB and its great, just wish I could get the latest BBM on it to ice the cake.

Hello,
The services you listed in your post will require a data plan which is provisioned by your wireless provider. You may want to contact your wireless provider to see if you have the correct plan.

Car cradle for Blackberry Curve 8310?

I have what may be kind of a silly question, but I'd love to find an answer. I have a Blackberry Curve 8310 that I LOVE and I just downloaded Telenav GPS for it. It works great, but I was wondering if there is some kind of cradle for my Blackberry that I can purchase so I can put it on my dash making it easier to see while driving?
Thanks so much!!
Sarah

I have the vent mount and love it. It is adjustable for different sizes. I had the 7290, 8700 and now the 8310 and it fits all of them good.

Hello
I have a Blackberry Curve 8310 and I am unsure if I can take video films with it. Can anyone please tell me what I can do to make it work.

Hi pipspur! As I've mentioned you can have video capturing in your 8310 once you've device OS 4.5. You can have new OS once your carrier accepts the new OS officially from RIM. Though some other carriers OS can be installed but I will request you to wait till itsenabled for your carrier.
Hi Rukus372! just to let you know all of my device like pearl 8100 can also have video capturing capability as that is running os OS 4.5. In BlackBerry its OS which can add capabilties that you may not have at this moment.
important thing as cadillacdavilla mentioned having media card is must to capture video in BlackBerry.

Hi tinkerbell.
Misunderstanding. You DON"T want your File Free to get below 15 mb. Pulling your battery will help reclaim your lost memory. Also, actually closing apps when not using them will return some of that memory for the device to use.
There is also a free app called Quickpull that will do this without your having to actually pull the battery. Check it out here: Quickpull
You can even have Quckpull set to do an auto restart. I have mine set to restart every morning at 4:30 so my BB is refreshed and ready to go each day. Sometimes, however, a real battery pull seems to do an even better job such as when you have installed any 3rd party apps or when your BB just feels sluggish from prolonged use (like posting in these forums smileyhappy:.
I would also suggest doing a backup of your device (good idea to backup frequently anyway) and getting a clean uninstall of DTM
Clean uninstall of DTM
And then installing DTM WITHOUT Media Manager. This will help to remove the types of problems you are encountering with MM. Saves from having a large download too.
Once you have that done that. Enable mass storage mode on your BB: Go to options-media card and change settings so they read:
Media Card Support: On
Encryption Mode: None
Mass Storage Mode Support: On
Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode wehn Connected: On
Then, when you connect your BB via usb (have DTM open before connecting) a windows explorer box will open showing your media card as a new drive on your pc. Just drag 'n drop your music or pics to the card from your pc. Very easy.
Let us know how it goes!

Sync Problems with Blackberry Curve 8310

I am also having a problem sync my new Blackberry Curve 8310. I previously had a Palm Treo 650. I was finally able to sync the contacts from my Palm to my Blackberry. I am assuming just like the Palm Treo software I can also view the contacts on my desktop, but I have not been able to view the contacts on the Blackberry Desktop Manager software. Where do I view this information, that I might have downloaded, there is now tab for the software that allows me to manager my contacts and my calender.
I use Outlook express for my emails is there any way I can make the Outlook Express the primary software on my desktop for managing my contacts and my calender and being able to sync to my Blackberry.

Hi and welcome to the forums!
DM is not like the Palm Desktop in that there is no set of visual organizers (calendar-contacts-tasks-memos) to see. DM serves to sync your data between the BB and another desktop application.
Here is a listing of the apps supported by the various versions of DM. http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB12268&slic...
When I migrated over from my Treo 650, the Switch Device Wizard did not work. As a workaround, I sync'd my Palm with Outlook 2003. To do this I had to use the original cd that came with my Treo to change the conduits so the Palm Desktop sync'd with Outlook. Not sure if I needed to use the cd to do this, I think you can change those setting in Palm Desktop, but make sure to map the fields well so your data imports into Outlook as you want it. (The fields are a little different between Palm and Outlook). ALWAYS make sure you get a good sync of your Palm data before doing any of this. That way you'll have the data in the Palm Desktop as a backup.
Once I had the data sync'd to Outlook, I just had to set up the synchronization setting on DM to sync over to my BB.
Post back if you have any further questions. Let us know how it goes.

How can I get my blackberry curve 8900 to update to 5.0 and get wifi to work?

I bought a blackberry curve 8900 around a year ago on an AT&T plan back when data plans werent required, so it just has minutes and texting. because of an issue i had with data before, i have data disabled completely on my account to prevent any mistaken data being used up and charging me. my AT&T contract recently expired so i called them up and got my blackberry unlocked, and will be soon switching to tmobile.
My problem is that it refuses to update past 4.6 over to 5.0 because of some restriction on it placed by AT&T, and my wifi wont work unless i have data enabled for the same reason. Is there anything i can do? I've tried installing 5.0 from different service providers onto my phone but it never installs properly.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
While you can (with just a trick or two) use any carriers OS package for your specific model number, it won't do any good since all 5.0 level OS's require a data plan, regardless of which carrier. So, without that, you can't update to 5.0. Further, it is the data plan that activates BIS -- which is what is used to run the BlackBerry Browser...hence that non-functionality also. Basically, a BB without a data plan is, to many, pretty useless.
There are other browsers that bypass BIS and will use a generic data plan (assuming you have that)...OperaMini and Bolt come to mind. You might give those a try.
Good luck!

My Blackberry Curve 8310 has no video recorder on it

I there a way to upgrade my phone so I can have a capable video recorder to record videos?

That's odd... I have AT&T and a Curve 8310; it has both a video and audio recorder built into it. I could not access my video recorder until I bought and inserted a microSD card into the Curve. The video camera's recordings take up a lot of memory compared to the camera, and if you don't have a memory card installed, this could be your problem.
If you do have a memory card with space on it, it's possible that the video recorder icon was accidentally hidden from view on the Home screen. While in the Home screen, press the Menu button (to the left of the trackball) and make sure "Show All" is checked. This will show you all icons, even the hidden ones; see if you can find the video camera icon among your list of icons.
FYI - You can also access the video recorder through the "Camera" icon. Click on the Camera icon, then once the screen switches to camera viewfinder, click on the Menu button (left of the trackball) and select "Video camera." This will then give you recording access to the video feature if your device has memory.

Application loader not working on blackberry curve 8310

Hi all,
I have some problem with my 8310. I want to install a asian langague, but application loader not working. I have a error message :
"The blackberry desktop software does not have
Blackberry device software for the device that
you have connected to the computer. Contact

blackberry desktop manager version 4.2.2.14
blackberry device manager version 4.2.2.10

What is the good package to install ?
Thanks in advance.

hello, you have a 8310. You must use an OS for the exact model. Using one for 8300 or 8330 will not work.

Blackberry Curve - not a smartphone - error messages that wont go away

Hello!
I cant use my Backberry Curve as the foillowing message keeps appearing and wont shift when i press OK:
'The application FourSquare has attempted to open a connection to a location inside the firewall and outside the firewall which is not allowed by your IT policy'.
Weird as I have never used Foursqaure in my life. The phones effectively unusable, does anyone have any ideas how I can get rid of the message please. I've tried taking out the battery and SIM. Thanks

I saw this:
http://jakemeyers.com/wordpress/?p=471
or you can try to remove foursquare in safe mode:
Battery pull, insert battery and when the red light goes off, hold down the back key through the entire boot process. It will give you a message about safe mode.
remove foursquare and do another battery pull.
