Blackberry Curve 8330 (sprint) only revievestext messages from sprint customers

I just got my first blackberry yesterday, its Sprint's Curve 8330, I have no problem texting back and forth between other sprint users, and all other users can recieve my messages, but when they text me back, the text never comes through to my phone.
HELP!

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
Since SMS/MMS are a carrier-provided function via your voice services with them, I'd suggest contacting them for assistance since it is most likely an issue with their provisioning of you on their network.
Unless you are using BBMessenger...in which case it would be different...
Good luck and let us know!

Blackberry curve 8330 keeps freezing during messages

My curve keeps freezing while I'm sending text messages. It takes a little too long for the phone to go through the commands I tell it to once I send a message for instance: I press send but the screen freezes, but while frozen I press back key and then the mute key to lock it. It's still frozen. What do I do? I've reduced the memory and deleted unwanted applications.

Options > SMS > Number of previous items, set that lower to like 2 or 3
Then, With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
Now see if that helps some.

Calendars for Blackberry Curve 8330......

Ohhh please help me!!!! I just bought the Verizon Blackberry Curve 8330. I a coming from a Palm Treo 700P. I love the Curve but I do not want to have to use outlook. Anyone who used Palm knows you could have multiple calendars and on both the Pam and Computer. I have all my dads medical, appointments, my cancer appointments and both of our lives on my Palm. When Verizon Synchronized it only the phone #'s came through and nothing for the calendar. I am now having to carry my palm treo for the personal information, drug histories, appointments, etc. Does anyone know of a program with the Calendar for both the desktop and the blackberry that I can download that will synch to each other or have any other ideas on what I can do? I would so appreciate it. Thank you so very much for any help.

SPRINT BLACKBERRY CURVE 8330 QUESTION

Hello Group,
{edit out personal information} I am thinking about purchasing a Sprint blackberry curve 8330. i was wondering if i were to travel abroad with this phone would i be able to use it in countries like the United Kingdom. and France?
thank you,
peter Stewart

Hello and Welcome to the Forums!
The easiest way for you to get an answer is to contact Sprint...they may or may not be able enable international roaming for you on that device.
Alternatively, you can research the radio capabilities of that model here:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/devices/blackberrycurve8300/curve_specifications.jsp
Then check the radio frequencies in use by carriers in the countries you desire to go to. That will tell you if the BB is at all capable of "talking" to those networks. Then you can either activate an international roaming plan with the carrier (if they offer such) or, before you leave, get and use the unlock code from your home carrier and then, upon arrival in the other country, buy a local SIM and use that in your BB.
Good luck and let us know!

Printing from Blackberry Curve 8330

Is there a program available that allows printing from the Blackberry Curve 8330?

The easiest way to do this will probably be to export the contacts from the Blackberry Desktop Software and import them into the Windows address book, Outlook or Apple Address book, whichever is appropriate for you, then sync them to your phone via iTunes.

Syncing contacts from a Blackberry Curve 8330 to iPhone 4

I currently have an Blackberry Curve 8330 and want to transfer my contacts to my new iPhone 4. The Blackberry I have does not support Verizon Wireless’ Backup Assistant. I used Blackberry Desktop software on my Mac and did a backup/synced my phone with the application. What do I do next to get my contacts onto the iPhone?

Bluetooth profiles
Depending on your BlackBerry® device model and wireless network, some profiles might not be supported.

Cannot Send E-mails form Blackberry Curve 8330

THis morning, I moved my Blackberry Curve 8330 from using the desktop redirector to now using the Enterprise Server version 5 on a Microsoft Exchange server. I have done this with 8 other blackberries as well. Every blackberry except mine is able to send e-mail messages from their blackberries after the move except mine. Everytime I try to send a message, I get the red X.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

Can you open the message and scroll up and see if there is an error in the message header?
It sounds like you may have a send as permission error or are not permitted for BES acces on your data plan.
Are you the domain admin? do you have domain admin rights on your AD Account?
If so remove yourself from the domain admin group and create a vanialla account for doing the admin tasks.
Chesk the send as permissions are set and try again.
Also check with your carrier and see if you are provisioned for Blackberry Prosumer (BIS), BlackBerry Enterprose (BES) or BlackBerry Enterprise Plus (BES+).
If your only BIS you'll get the red x if your trying to send and activated against a BES.

BlackBerry Curve 8330 Email Deletion Question

Greetings and Salutations Black Berry People!
I have a BlackBerry Curve 8330 and a question concerning it.
My phone is currently connected to an exchange server that I sync with my phone. Is there a way to delete emails from my phone all at once, a mass purge of old emails under 1 condition: I don't want the emails on the exchange ( the old ones) to be deleted as well.
I've set my phone to delete messages from my phone after 30 days but can I do what I said in the above paragraph now?
Thanks a bunch!

hello,
in the messages application options, there is one to check delete on : handheld only.
so that if you delete a message on your blackberry, it is not deleted on the server.
in the messages list, you can hover on a date, hit menu key and select "delete prior". It will delete all messages that have a date before that date.

Computer AND Device manger won't recognize Blackberry Curve 8330. .PLEASE Help

I have tried so many different things. . I am at the end of my rope. My computer AND the Device Manager won't recognize my Blackberry Curve 8330 anymore. It use to but then Sprint had me to do a hard reset and it hasn't done it since. I am running Vista. I have downloaded all different versions of the Desktop Manager, Blackberry Drivers etc. I know that the USB works because it recognizes other devices. Plus when I plug the blackberry in, the little plug shows up for about five seconds and disappears. Plus when I unplug it and the blackberry screen is dark, it lights up so something is being recognized somewhere. This is frustrating because I don't have my contacts backed up and I am trying not to do a hard reset to lose them again. I have tried this on two different computers running Vista and the other XP. I get the same result with both. I don't know what happened to make both stop recognizing my blackberry. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Windows live on blackberry curve 8330

Hi everyone, I'm new to the world of blackberry, only had mine for 1 week. The question I need to know is I have a blackberry curve 8330, it came with blackberry messenger on it, but I didn't really like it, so I don't know if I did wrong, but I put windows live for blackberry on it....seems to work fine, now that I have it on I have been wondering if I should have done it, could I have problems down the road.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Indeed, you carrier may prevent you from using the Windows Live service on your BlackBerry device.
but it was available back in July 2008.

Blackberry Curve 8330 vs Droid 2

So I'm heavily considering trading in my Blackberry Curve 8330 for a new Droid 2. Was wondering if anyone else recently made the switch and can shar their experiences/opinions.
I like my Blackberry a lot, but it looks like there is a lot more stuff I can do with the Droid 2. My biggest concern is that I have read a lot of comments saying that the service/reception is kind of Shotty on teh Droid 2 and people are having reception and dropped call issues.
Overall I would say I am pretty happy with Verizon service when it comes to coverage area and reception (at least with my Blackberry), so I am compelled to beleive that the issue is with the Droid 2 phone itself.
Would love to hear others opinions on this topic.
Thanks!

I got a Droid 2 last week and had the original Droid before that. I taught my Mom how to use a Blackberry last year (8900). Based on that I can say that the Droid 2 is a highly functional phone, especially from a email and internet, especially internet standpoint. The pages load in 5 - 15 seconds depending on web density. Its nearly laptop fast. I know the brower on Blackberry's is weak to say the least. The camera is excellent and you can take video with it too. From a communications standpoint it's outstanding. It's very easy to take a picture of something and with the click of 1 button, you can email it to anyone, post it on facebook or myspace or anywhere you like. I like that functionality a lot. The best way I can describe the phone overall is that it's like having a small powerful computer in your pocket, fast, functional and pocketable. The Android OS works best when you have a gmail account as your primary email account. It downloads messages quickly. Gmail also uses your list of contacts as contacts for the phone. You can transfer your contacts from your old phone into the Droid 2 and it will populate in your gmail contact list. My friend just took my old Droid and transferred his yahoo contacts into it and it populated in gmail and he set up his yahoo account in the phone too, so he can work from both.
Overall, I really highly recommend the Droid 2. It has a learning curve if you're used to a Blackberry, but worth it in the end. Its a great daily phone with a nice camera and camcorder and excellent social capabilities. I find myself using the pc at home less because the Droid is so capable. Get it!!

Google Maps no longer works for my Verizon Blackberry Curve 8330. What is wrong with Google???

For the past 11 months, Google Maps and Gmail have worked wonderfully with my Verizon Blackberry Curve 8330. Tonight, all of it stopped working. I tried to load Google Maps and failed. Kept getting the error message "Network Unavailable, blah blah blah". I tried restarting the phone, removing and reinserting the battery, until I finally uninstalled Google Maps. Now when I point my browser (OperaMini) to m.google.com to download and reinstall Google Maps, it says "Sorry the Google Maps application does not work on your 8330." This makes NO sense. Why would Google suddenly remove support for my phone? Is there a work around? Before uninstalled, I tried all sorts of tricks with editing permissions to no avail.
Also, Gmail is refusing to check mail, occasionally saying that a data connection is needed. That also makes NO sense as I have great phone reception.
My internet (OperaMini) and normal calling and texting capabilities are unaffected.
In conclusion: Is there ANY WAY to get these Google applications to reinstall and work on my phone? Or has Google screwed me over? Any help would be tremendously appreciated!
Thanks,
Hyun
