Blackberry Flip 8220 major issue

Hey,
I received this as a present sim free 6 months ago, phone has been fine up until now where it is cutting off and resetting itself after every phone call that lasts around 5 min mark.
Can anyone please advise how I can resolve this issue??
Kind regards,

OK...then the next step is to check if your device has an OS update available from your carrier. If you are already using DTM, then it should be checking for you and offerring updates. Otherwise, you can check your carriers update site via this portal:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
Or use the RIM update portal:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/update/
It is usually best to use the update from your carrier -- so if they have an update for you, it would be a good idea to update. Be sure to use the desktop software to do a backup beforehand so that you can restore afterwards.
Good luck and let us know!

Blackberry Flip 8220 Other languages

Hi,
i have a Perl Flip 8220, i would like to add german language to my new phone.
How can i do this? Right now i have English, US English an Spanish.
Any idea?
Cheers

Hi Sc0tty,
Welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
The only supported way to add languages to your BlackBerry is from the device software available from your wireless provider. If German language support is not available in this software, I would advise contacting your provider for more information. Here's how to install any available language packs. http://bit.ly/aGmRyA

Design flaw in blackberry pearl 8220 audio (voice) - does every phone shipped have this problem?

Hi,
have a new blackberry 8820 pearl that I am happy with.
The phone does have one big problem. hearing a person over the phone (i.e.. The top speaker embedded in the flip not the microphone in the phone case proper).
When someone raises their voice a little during conversation the phone distorts the incoming audio (it makes a tinny sound like when a speaker distorts when it is overloaded and yes I am using default volume and have tried it on all volume levels... The phone speaker still distorts incoming voice).
Also called a few numbers and got several people's voicemail announcement... Because people raise their voice just a little bit when they put in their voice mail announcement the phone always distorts the voicemail greeting.
Moved my sim card to a Motorola razor v8. everything is crystal clear hearing and speaking. your blackberry pearl flip has a hardware or firmware design flaw... It distorts incoming conversation based on how the person is speaking not just when they are talking with a strong clear voice... But when the incoming speech volume is raised slightly!.
I asked tmobile to send me a new phone. they did and the new phone does the same thing (i.e.. The handset speaker). the speaker phone function works just fine and does not distort conversation.
Is this a problem with a certain production run on the phone or does it happen with every blackberry pearl flip 8220?
since the Motorola razor works fine under the same conditions with <no> distortion figured it may be design flaw going to production on the phone. But thought I would ask anyway.. In case this problem has been solved by development in-house.
Please pass this message to engineering and the product line manager responsible for the blackberry flip 8220. I know if I was a product manager I wouldn't want to go to market with a phone that distorts audio. you guys should have checked the competition (Motorola and other windows CE phones to make sure the audio on the blackberry pearl is as good or better than the competition).
Hope this helps. please pass this forward and see what engineering and product management says. if its a general design flaw it would be good to know. just wanted my new blackberry (which I like) to work just as good as my Motorola razor. both are good phones but the audio handset speaker distortion is somewhat of a pain.
Thank you,
mark bramblett

Pearl Flip 8220 - unable to reload OS

Dear all,
I am using a Pearl Flip 8220 (T-Mobile unlocked version) in INDIA.
Recently I gave the handset for OS reloading as I was getting a 'Call Failed' message frequently. None of the repair shops could resolve the issue & hence I decided to wipe the existing OS (on my own) and reload the latest one by downloading it from BB website for my carrier (Airtel). I wiped the existing OS using BBSAK and tried loading the OS.
But since then I have been facing issues and not able to do it. While trying to load the OS, the handset restarts automatically, for some reason, and the loading ends abruptly. I have observed that this happens while the applicaion tries to load 'net_rim_cldc.cod'.
I would be extremely grateful if somebody has come across the scenario and can help me resolve it. Am not very familiar with the installation, but did go through a few suggestions given by a members on CrackBerry & other forums.

Hi Sharan,
Try just following the steps here:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Device-software-for-BlackBerry/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-S...
If you still have problems, it may be necessary to reload the JVM on the device as well. To do that, go to the Start button on your computer and in the search box, type "cmd" (without the quotation marks). This will open the DOS command box. Type the following exactly as written below:
cd c:\program files (x86)\common files\research in motion\apploader\
Press enter (note, if your computer runs a 32-bit version of Windows, do not include the (x86) part, so instead type "cd c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader", minus the quotation marks and press enter).
Next, type:
Loader.exe /nojvm
Press enter again. This will now open the Loader file in a way that will also reload the java virtual manager on the device, which should help.
If that still doesn't work, let us know. Good luck!

Blackberry flip Verizon services

I got a Verizon account about 5 months ago I had to pay a deposit and I NEVER got any type of choice of phones, the phone that they gave to me does not work I traded it in a number of times and each time the phone works less and less I would like to have a choice of the phone that I use as it is the only phone that I use and It should at least work for me. I find this totally unfair and would like to know what I can do about it so I can get a hold of my dry and my children as I am expecting my first grandchild soon and I am diabetic and have to get in touch with my dry often! Thank you .

Normally, you open an acocunt, and you can choose just about any phone in Verizon's line up at a substantial discount. So I'm confused as to how you opened an account but were given NO choices.
I traded it in a number of times and each time the phone works less and less I would like to have a choice of the phone that I use Again, you have a choice when opeing an account, and you have 30 days to exchange the phone for another if it is not working out as expected, or return the phone entirely and try another carrier. After 5 months, you don't have a lot of options - what exactly isn't working? If it's manufacturer's defects, it will be replaced under warranty (sounds like this may have happened)
as it is the only phone that I use and It should at least work for me. I find this totally unfair and would like to know what I can do about it so I can get a hold of my dry and my children as I am expecting my first grandchild soon and I am diabetic and have to get in touch with my dry often! Thank you .
Of course, we all pay for cell phone service and expect it to work, regardless of our circumstances. Your post doesn't address what about your phone, specifically, doesn't work - no or low signal? Unable to hear well? Not receiving calls? Unable to make calls?
You posted this in the Blackberry forum with a Blackberry flip in the title, so I am assuming you own a Blackberry - there is a certain amount of (daily) maintenance that goes along with owning a blackberry to keep it running efficiently,, like battery pull to clear memory, closing and exiting apps when not in use, etc.
With a little more information, perhaps someone here can better answer your issues.

Is the display on Pearl Flip 8220 sharper that the one on my 8310?

Does anyone know why the display on a Pearl Flip 8220 seems sharper than the one on my 8310? Is it the 4.6 OS or the actual display?
Man, I want a 8900......

Pearl Flip 8220

Hi All,
I just bought a Pearl Flip 8220. Received it two days ago and have been using it as a normal phone while waiting to register with my service provider. This morning for no apparent reason the phone blanked out and all I can get now is the red LED indicator light intermittent with the white background and (wait- loading) clock. I have tried taking the battery out and replacing to reset but to no avail. Any ideas?

Welcme to the cmmunity supprt frums
I would probably have them send me another one. Sounds like you may need to reload the OS. It is something that can be done but if it is a new phone, I would want a new replacement.
Thats just me.... others will be here to give you direction as well! Glad you are here! Enjoy your stay ... and most of all enjoy that BlackBerry

Do the FLip 8220 work with swedish sim card?

I recentley bought a new unlocked (used to be T mobile) balckberry flip 8220. It wont recognice my swedish sim card. Must the sim card support edge? Cause my carrier do not have edge, just GPRS and 3G.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Is the 8220 device unlocked for other carriers (other than Tmobile)?
To determine if your BlackBerry is "unlocked" for use on carriers other than for which it is branded:
1. On your BlackBerry, go to Options > Advanced Options > Sim Card.
2. At that screen type MEPD (see note below) on your keyboard. A new menu will pop up.
* If your BlackBerry has a SureType keyboard (71xx and 81xx devices) you will need to double-tap the P, so the actual keys entered become M E P P D.
3. Look for Network in the list.
4. If your device is "unlocked", it should say Disabled or Inactive. If it says Active, it's still locked to that carrier.

I bougnt my S5 a month ago and I am having two major issues. The screen is very slow to respond. When the screen is dark and I press the home button, it doesn't come on. I have to press the button anywhere from 4-10 times and then it usually flashes on

I bougnt my S5 a month ago and I am having two major issues. The screen is very slow to respond. When the screen is dark and I press the home button, it doesn't come on. I have to press the button anywhere from 4-10 times and then it usually flashes on and back off. It is very, very frustrating. The other issue is that the battery drains very quickly. I have called Verizon numerous times regarding these issues. They tell me to do different things that never help. We eventually did a factory reset and it still has the same issues. Help! It is a brand new phone and unfortunately I am in a new two year contract. Ugh. Is there anyone out there who can help me?

I have done that several times. In fact, every time I call Verizon with my phone problems, they have me do the same things repeatedly. I keep telling them I have already done them but they insist they are SURE it will work this time. It never does. After doing the factory reset and it still not working correctly, they act like they are confused, almost like I am lying. I did what you suggested above on the slim chance it would work this time but it did not. I bought two S5's that day and the other one works perfectly fine. I know I got a bad phone. Verizon just does not listen. It is a bad phone. I just want a new phone that works properly. Is that too much to ask? I bought a new phone that has been bad from day one. Why oh why do I have to spend hours of my time on the phone, in the store, on the computer, trying to rectify this? It shouldn't be this difficult! Help please!!!

Tap to click not working properly in Mountain Lion. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

The tap to click does not work with mountain lion as it did before the mountain lion install. I purchased a brand new imac in August of 2011 and got a wireless keyboard and selected the wireless trackpad instead of a mouse. The trackpad worked wonderful pre upgrade with tap to click. Now after the install of the newest beast, I have to actually press the trackpad rather than a slight tap. I have carpel tunnel and this is causing great stress upon my hand. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

Perhaps, I was not clear enough.
I have an imac purchased in Aug. 2011 which came with Lion 10.6 (two uprades before mountain lion)
Recently, I just purchased a macbook pro retina with Mountain Lion
On my imac, my settings allowed me to "tap to click" everything EXCEPT the initial log in at the star up of my imac, again running Lion 10.6
On my macbook pro retina which has Mountain Lion, I set up the "tap to click" option, but notice that a "hard" click was neccessary when trying to click things. I thought this was a macbook thing (my first one) so I went and upgraded my imac to Mountain LIon, BIG MISTAKE! Now both my imac AND my macbook only have limited "tap to click" options. Before mountain lion I could "tap" to highlight and select text, tap and drag, and many other thiings that Mountain Lion has disabled.
I am truly surprised that no one has noticed this MAJOR issue.
Is there a way to uninstall this update, similar to how on a PC you can go back to a restore point.
On another note even the way PREVIEW has changed is less user friendly, there used to be icons on the bottom right corner of the screen, now I have to double tap and select the option I would like to switch between contacts and thumbnails. This is really annoying and is causing me time when reviewing files.
Just in case anyone was wondering, I did go to system preferences -> trackpad -> select tap to click
In fact almost all of the trackpad functions have been selected.

I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!

I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!
I have created a navigation system on the master pages and set the presentation to links only mode. I also have other links scattered throughout the program, like a linkable table of contents, etc. Some of them work, some of them don't. Not sure why. Anyone out there having similar issues? Or have any idea on how I can solve this issue? Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Links should not create any problems in Keynote. If they are set up correctly on text, the text will be underlined. Objects that have links will have a curved arrow bottom right, if you click the arrow a popup will display the link information.
Try this repair for Keynote, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
1
delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
2
empty the trash: Finder > Empty Trash
3
Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then power on the Mac, immediately after the start chime, hold down the Shift key
When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in.
4
Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
5
when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click repair disc permissions
6
when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart
7
install Keynote from the Mac App Store
let us know if this helped

What are the major issues to consider in code review? Or performance analys

What are the major issues to consider in code review? Or performance analysis?

I would not recommend you to try to optimize performance by checking the coding.
There is the code inspector which can do all which makes sense automatically.
The above mentioned points are not the real issues.
Instead of code review you should execute test cases and measure the exection time.
1. With STAD if you want to get good time measurement
2. With SE30 and ST05, if you want to have data for further anaylsis.
Check total time (SE30), check whether DB part is large, then go to SQL trace. Do the check mentioned here
/people/siegfried.boes/blog/2007/09/05/the-sql-trace-st05-150-quick-and-easy
to find the SQL bottlenecks.
The major point about SQL problems is index support, if there is no proper index support then the performance will be poor. Be aware, that problems are only visible, if you tables are filled.
In a test system where you have very little data, you will never encounter performance problems.
Check also the Top10 of the SQ30 hit list.
Be aware that a proper performance analysis is not a 5 minutes job.

Dear All,what are the major issues in implementation in sap hcm

what are the major issues in implementation in SAP HCM project scope is PA ,OM,TIME, INDIA PAYROLL

Hi Ramjan,
Try to have a clear understanding of requirements and find the best solution in SAP. Keep as much as possible everything standard and based on SAP best practices.
In PA look for a comprehensive enterprise structure. It's base for everything.
DON"T do anything through development(ABAP code) as much as possible specially in PT and PY. Try to do claculation by PCRs and Schema.

What are the major issues in implementation SAP CRM sales and CIC.

Hi
We are newly implanting the project to the mobile Manfaturing Company. Our Clint is going for are looking to implement the CIC interaction center win Clint and the Sales modules of CRM .
We have some 3rd parry raw data with us with that raw data we are calling to the customers and we want create the opportunity in the CIC after that we will convert the opportunity as a sales with our other sales people. After that they will sale that product to that customers.
We have the back end of the R/3 SD, MM modules implemented for Clint.
Now 1) I want to know after implementation what are the major issues will come in the project normally for the conman Sales and CIC Win Clint projects kindly give the some issues normally come and solutions for the problems also.
My motto is that if I know the issues I can make preparation for that conman issues and I will make my project with good effective and smooth running ..
with Regards,
prakesh
Edited by: prakesh on Dec 9, 2009 6:04 AM

hi prakesh,
firstly, cic winclient is an older version and obsolete so its better to implement the new crm version.
secondly, in any case if you want to implement, then your 3rd party raw data has to be mapped with the SAP system which could be a problem. Middleware could be a lot of effort. Rest all depends on how much customization you need for your business requirement in cic and sales. In case you are implementing standard functionality mostly then no major complications are expected otherwise lot of development effort may be required.

shikha

Having major issues with InDesign CS6

Having major issues with InDesign CS6. Not only is it crashing, but it is corrupting the existing file. Then when I relaunch, it is not allowing me to open the file again.
In another instance, yesterday I opened an file created 3 months ago and it allowed me to make changes, however I could not save them to the existing file, or not even to a new name.
I had to copy each layer on each page to create a new document. NOT GOOD!!!
