Bold 9650 with OS 6 and Random Reboots
Hi, all,
I upgraded like many of you to the latest official OS for the 9650, version 6.0.0.431. I have been experiencing random reboots, at least 4 or 5 per day. I was wondering if any of you are experiencing the same thing? Usually, random reboots are caused by some 3rd party application, but I am having a hard time figuring out which one it can be. I think it might be either Facebook or Weatherbug causing the reboot. Not sure, but wanted to get your input. If you are experiencing random reboots with this OS, let me know.

OK...Upgrade complete. No reboot's yet. But what I did notice...some of my preloaded app/icons got doubled? Any tips how to delete either one or all so they don't come back again? I had a Curve last, and everytime I "removed" something, after an update or over time, the Icon would come back. This is my third day with my new Bold
Hey,
Probably what happened on the "pushed" icons for apps is that when you reloaded your OS, you probably restored the Service Book. Then, after your device was connected to the network, it got pushed a couple of those icons again, resulting in duplicate icons. In my case, it was the icon for VCast Apps. I went into Options>Device>Advanced System Settings>Service Book and found that I did have the VCast Apps listed twice. I deleted one of those entries and one of the duplicate icons disappeared. Now, you could delete all of those pushed icons in the Service Books, but they will reappear after a few hours. The Service Book is continually updated during the day. It connects with the network, looking for updates and it will put those pushed apps back. The only solution is to hide those apps. I just made a folder called pushed apps and moved all of thosed pushed apps into that folder. I hope this helps.
By the way, no reboots since reloading my OS yesterday afternoon. That is good. I will load Opera Mini 5 Beta 2 and let it run for 24 hours and see if I get reboots.

Critical error and random reboots
I have gotten critical errors and random reboots lately =( and it really stinks.. anyone who know what the problem might be?
Is it my 40gb IDE hardrive I just put in?
And it only happens in gamesHow is your HD doing for heat? When my HDs started getting hot my system kept crashing and rebooting as well. My other thought is to try and uninstall, then re-install video drivers (with the latest drivers of course). There have been times when my system has crashed becasue my vid drivers were on the fritz. Anyways, those are just some of my thoughts.
and just like cultie said, check the jumpers to make sure they are on the correct master/slave pins. -
Lumia 720 - Defective Audio Jack and Random Reboot...
I purchased a Lumia 720 from Amazon.com in the US. After about a month, sound was only coming from one headphone. I thought it just might have been my headphones, but then I tried them in a friends phone and they worked fine. Other headphones didn't work either unless it was over Bluetooth. I have also been experiencing freezing and random reboots. A friends factory reset it for me several times and the issues still persist.
I need to send it in for repair; I did verify that it is in-warranty.this is mainly a user to user forum only for Nokia products and services, so we are of limited assistance to you here unfortunately. in this case, all we can do is direct you to your nearest Nokia Care location for inspection, if there is none nearby, then try contacting Nokia head office in your country of residence.

Unstable and Random reboot or software crash with 1536 MB RAM
Let see if any of you are a good tech..
I have this MSI KT3 Ultra 333 motherboard (its almost 2 years old) with an MSI Ti4200
The motherboard is working perfectly fine.
It has TWO memory sticks of 512 MB PC2700 DDR dimms They are in slot 1 and slot 2. for a total of 1 GB
Everything is working perfectly fine until you add 1 more dimm of 512 into slot 3
When i put the third 512 MB into slot 3 (to get the 1536MB), the computer randomly reboot and softwares become unstable.
Unpluggin internal devices like DVD, extra drives doesn't fix the problem.
This is not a virus worm spyware problem either.. The issue seems to be hardware.
Dimm 1 = Kingston DDR 333 (bought 2 years ago)
Dimm 2 = No name DDR 333 ) Bought 1 year ago)
Dimm 3 = Kingston DDR 333 (earlier model bought today)
If i take out the new Dimm, everything works fine.. if i leave the new Dimm 3 everything crash or randomly reboot.
I tried swapping Dimms places but no go.
I though the new stick in slot 3 was deffect so i removed it and put it and the second computer (a compaq) which would bring that second computer to total of 1GB. passed the test.
So it doesn't seem to be the memory stick.
Why can't i add a 512 MB dimm to the MSI KT3 Ulra 333 ?
All i want to do is to have 1.5 GB of ram but im stuck at 1GB.The thing is...
They're all the same speed according to their numbers
i.e : KVR 333 X 64 C 25 / 512
Its typical to kingston label where KVR ( kingston value ram) , 333 (333) , x?, 64, 25 (2.5) / 512 (512MB)
The second dimm is an Infineon HYB25D2566800BT-6 , but it is not listed on infineon webpage. the 256 in the serial means 256Mb dimm on their website but it gives 512MB still. I think theres a typo on infineon website.
The third dimm is also a KVR 333 2.5 / 512 (just a newer one)
Anyway, what i did is i borrowed a 512 MB dimm Samsung from a colegue and removed the Infineon.. (yes i know, but i don't have access to a third Kingston)
I moved the newer kingston from slot3 to slot 2.
Now i have 2 kingston next to each other... then i added the Samsung 512 2.5 in third slot.
I unplugged all neons to gain some power juice..
The current setup is now
Slot 1= Kingston PC2700 333 2.5 (2 years old)
Slot 2= Kingston PC2700 333 2.5 (new model)
Slot 3= Samsung PC2700 333 2.5 (sold with presario compaq that use MSI boards)
Total = 1536 MB
Im gona give it a try.
Also, each of those dimm use certain known memory chips with the serial starting with either WDxxxx or WENxxxx , it seems some of those memory manufacturers get their memory chips from the same chip manufacturers... And most motherboard manufacturers usualy have a compatibility list with those chip manufacturers...
Anyway, it's sort of a chaos industry out there. -
System with encrypted root and random passphrase
Hello,
everybody
I`ve got some question regarding some kind of secure systems.
After a short period of time, i had the idea of a system with some
security constructions in regarding some special situations.
This is as most of the time not really importend for me, but sometimes
i like to think about some very paranoid situations just for fun.
so every critisim is enjoyed and nice to hear.
I know that everything is only as secure as the weakest link, this especially the
case with the higher applications which provide services, increased with a network
and based with the underlying system and the physical access to the hardware.
So it will for sure has flaws, but i try to concentrade myself at this time to
the basics and maybe someone has the knowledge what is possible with an increasing
effort known at this time and possibilities of technology today.
Let`s say i have a system providing some services. It is headless so no physical keylogger
could be implemented. It has a bios protection and can only boot from usb. I`ve got
2 usbsticks. One with an encrypted system which autologin as root and the other usbstick
provides the keyfiles needed that the system will boot at all. The system boots into tmpfs
and then use /dev/random to generate a new long passfrase which becomes the new root-password.
The new password will be written to the second usbstick with a date and maybe other unigue
indicators (seperated from the original keyfile). So the new password is different of the
original booting one. This password is only valid for let`s say 12 hours after that the system
has to be rebooted. Maybe at this point the tmpfs rest storage has to be overwritten with
/dev/zero to delete every entry of the old one. (does the system system crash here? i don`t
know). After that the usbsticks are ejected and keeped save by the maintainer. The system has
also be keeped physical safe -- like in a safe.
So what is the main point here. The system gets a new and automaticaly generated password
every working day. The maintainer has the possibility to access the running maching with the
saved new password. The enemy can`t really insert a permanent access to the system because
of the everday changing password. The maintainer can leave the system alone in the safe,
and is only one who has the the sticks. Two sticks a more secure than one unencrypted.
I think this can also be expanded with a diskless system for more network systems, waiting
with sshd for the passphrase procedure keep everything "live" and every service passphrased
of the user, like files access to another system.
I don`t think that not somebody had the same idea, so there has to be flaws.
Oh and by the way:
How can i forbid that the user can use strg+alt+del to reboot?
How can i see when network cable has been unplugged, maybe with an optical indicator
connected as a serial input to the lights of the switch ot maybe a more electrical way
examined with a serial input connected to the main system?
When i load the / system into a tmpfs i know exactly how big it is (there is no logging i don`t
know the size of a running /tmp ) and i will give it only the exactly size and mount the user tmpfs seperate.
So when the enemy gains user privileges he can only expand the user filesystem space for his
use, but he want to expand the root filesystem , the sytem will crash and maybe reboot, which
could maybe be recognized? Ok if he have root he could hardlink to the userspace. Hmmh i don`t know.
Maybe i should post this thread, but i want to know more.
There are many questions remained, but i am no coder and i will try not to go to far of my
knowledge. So ....
thanks for your answers
and
greetingsWithout hacking the encrypt hook, you'll only be able to unlock one volume at the same time. Afaik the device mapper asks for a password for each encrypted partition, and using one for all won't work, you have to repeat the process for each partition, whereas the encrypt hook only seems to be able to handle one partition. You can hack it, but I haven't done that (yet), it's already quite messy you have to hack the hook file to make it apply to non-root partitions.

WIN2k, KT3 Ultra Deluxe Board, and Random Reboots
OK.
First off, let me say, the KT3 Ultra board (Deluxe) is a very, VERY nice board, and I love it with all my heart. I'm running Windows 2000 and I get great performance on games, and just all around everything.
But, for some reason, I keep getting random reboots, and I have a hunch it has to do with the 'board.
Here are my specs:
AMD Athlon XP 1600+
PNY GeForce 4 TI 4600
MSI KT3 Ultra Board (Deluxe)
512 megs of DDR RAM
Windows 2000 Professional, Service Pack 2 (all updates)
Maxtor 60 GB HD
Western Digital 60 GB HD
HP CD-ROM Drive
Genuine DVD-ROM Drive
NetGear FA310TX NIC card
SoundBlaster Live!
Any ideas, folks?There can be a lot of reasons why you get reboots, so difficult to point to one thing that will solve it. Your PSU is big, so we can rule out lack of power.
I presume you have fiddled with the BIOS settings? What are your advanced chipset settings? In my experience lockups and reboots are caused by memory problems, so set memory to "by user" and on the slowest setings at first.
My GF4 gave reboots because the AGP slot shared IRQ11 with my networkcard. Relocating the networkcard to another PCI slot solved it. MY GF2 card didn't show this problem. So check if you have shared resources.
Take out all other cards and see if it improves the situation.
Do you have one or two memory sticks. In case of 2, try everything with one stick and also with the other to see if one of the sticks is the problem. -
Hi all,
random error I'm guessing something to do with video drivers that replaces the screen with a bunch of colored pixels.
I'm not sure if the computer is still responding and it's just a screen issue, but I do see a little square move when I move the mouse.
I'm uploading a picture of the error.
I've updated everything to the latest version of Leopard.
2010 intel iMac
OSX 10.6.7
Any ideas?I've updated everything to the latest version of Leopard.
2010 intel iMac
OSX 10.6.7
v10.6.7 is Snow Leopard not Leopard and there is a v10.6.8 update available.
Click your Apple menu / Software Update
Restart your Mac after the update is installed.

Freeze and random reboot. HELP!
I'm going to try to keep this short as it is a long story.
Recently I reformatted my hard drive and installed Windows XP Professional. After the installation I realized that I do not have the drivers for some of the hardware. I installed all latest drivers off their webpages but only one problem. Now the computer randomly freezes (more likely to freeze if IE or Mozilla is opened) and sometimes on rare occasion will reboot itself. I've searched and checked everywhere and found only little information. Possibly the video cards driver is too new or too old, P/S, general driver defaults, etc, etc. With the help of SIW I found that the P/S and temperatures are all normal, so that can be rulled out. My questions are; Has anyone had this type of problem or know how it can be resolved? And also, could it be possible for my RAM cards to be at fault for the freezing or rebooting?
Here is my setup:
Asus Desktop
AMD Athlon 62 3200+ Processor
MSI K8N Neo MS-7030 VER. 1 Mainboard
ATI Radeon 9550 Series AGP 256M Video Card
again... O/S is Windows XP ProHang in there, these problems can be very hard to diagnose. Trust me, I know. I'm having some very similar ones.
Disable automatic reboot in System Properties\Advanced\Performance\Advanced. This allows you to see the BlueScreen information before you manually reboot.
Try uninstalling all the drivers you recently installed. Install different versions of the drivers, either older or newer, one at a time. Test things thoroughly in between. Try to document exactly what you were doing and what was loaded when you have the failure. If you get a Blue Screen, write down all the information.
Post back. -
Persistant, song skipping and random reboot - after multiple restores
My iPod is skipping songs that should work and also restarting at random when trying to play music. This has been going on for a while but now happens too often to ignore.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA26488?viewlocale=en_US
I've followed everything on this troubleshoot.
-I'm using the latest version of iTunes
-My ipod is 120gb Classic, 2 years old. It previously held around 15,000 tracks but while trying to fix it, I only sync about 300 tracks.
-My files are not corrupted
-I've checked the bitrates and format, they should play without issue
-My iPod is stationary on my desk
-I've used 2 different USB cables and tryed syncing on multiple ports
-I've used resets, restores, and even used windows to reformat the drive
So where do I go from here? I'm not sure about my warranty, but if I take this in to an apple store will they solve this for me anyway?
I also want to ask if an ipod can actually handle my 15k song collection since the problem seems to get worse the more songs I add.
Ipods are advertised as being able to handle this amount of music but in general I find my ipod runs very slowly with this amount of music.Does anyone have any advice? Please, I'm at my wits end here.

Blackberry bold 9650 os 6.0 and windows 7
For the last 48 hours I have not been able to sync my phone with my desktop. My desktop software keeps freezing whether I try to open the software from the sdesk top or whether I plug my phone in with a ubs cord and choose the snyc media option on the phone
There is no requirement to keep the Desktop Software version the same as the BB OS version...they are 100% independent. Indeed, it is always advised to use the most up to date Desktop Software version that you can, regardless of the OS level of the BB itself. They are 100% independent.
The sole consideration is if you are synchronizing with a desktop PIM (e.g., Outlook), in which case you must be sure you are using a version of the Desktop Software that supports your PIM version:
KB12268Synchronization support for BlackBerry Desktop Software for Windows
You can always find the most recent version of the Desktop Software via the official download portal:
http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop.html
And you can always find prior Desktop Software versions (if required) via a link in the thread I provided you earlier.
Further, you can always find all presently supported BB OS versions via this portal:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/apps-and-software/desktop-and-device-download-sites.html
That portal is sorted first by carrier...so it can take some digging to find all OS packages available to you (you can, with the proper "tricks", use any OS package from any carrier)
So, I believe that your best course of action would be to re-do the steps provided (linked to) in post 2 above...but this time don't stay back on Desktop Software 6.0...rather, use the newest version you can based on your Desktop PIM requirements (disregard your BB OS level when making this decision). To make sure things are the best they can be, you definitely should also do step 4 from that post...that way, you will install to your PC both the newest Desktop Software along with your specific BB OS package...that way, you will give your PC and your BB the best ability to communicate properly with each other.
Good luck and let us know!
Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!

Macbook Air constant kernel task and random reboots problem
Hi my Macbook Air has suddenly started playing up after being fine since purchase. While engaged in photo editing in Photoshop a couple of days ago the fans were screaming flat out (not so unusual) but I had a look in Activity Monitor and noticed an ongoing Kernel Task, I never usually see these but now they always seem to be running hogging (at the moment 608 MB of) memory. Now today the machine has shut itself down twice too something that has happened once or twice only in the last two years . I reset the NVRAM but the kernel task is still running.
Any clues what to do next? Could it be 10.9.2 related?
Thanks
SimonThe kernel_task (pseudo-)process is always running. It should not, however, be using more than a few percent of the CPU. Is it?

Apploader.msi error, bold 9650
okay, I have a bold 9650 with the 6.0 os and it was running fine. The update came out. I installed it. Now, I cannot run the desktop manager it is constantly looking for apploader.msi. I have unistalled and reinstalled the OS for pc, running outlook 2007. I have removed everything with "blackberry or rim". help
This posting referred to another Bold 9650 listing. Reading it still might give you an idea. Think the example would start with 9650 instead of 9870.
I will assume for a moment that you have only one phone, e.g. the Bold 9780 smartphone and the driver
is not yet loaded but if it is go to the last paragraph near the bottom which starts with "Now it appears ".
I suggest first checking in ‘Add or Remove Programs’ accessed via the control panel whether you have
these 2 programs installed:
BlackBerry Desktop Software 6.1
BlackBerry Device Software v6.0.0 for BlackBerry Bold 9780 smartphone
The important one is the Device software for the proper phone. You might want also find a listing of:
BlackBerry Device Software Updater
as well on this page. This software is not needed to communicate with your phone and is optional.
(I don’t know whether one has to install device software for each model of a phone which one connects
to the DTM. I noticed you have also a Bold 9650 and it might not like the Bold 9780 device driver and
vice
versa. I assume you need both drivers present when you have 2 different phones, see below).
You can find the device software here:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
Here is an example for the 9780 phone (above assumption).
find:North America, then select 'Bell Mobility Inc.' ( We assume for a moment you are withBell because
each service provider gets their own driver).
next page is called: 'Download for Bell Mobility Inc.'
Next select a phone, e.g. 9780
Next appears:
Software For BlackBerry® Bold™ 9780 smartphone
BlackBerry Handheld Software v6.0.0.2647 (All Languages)
Package Version: 6.0.0.2647
Consisting of:
Applications: 6.0.0.600
Software Platform: 6.6.0.223
File name: 9780AllLang_PBr6.0.0_rel2647_PL6.6.0.223_A6.0.0.600_Bell_Mobility_Inc.exe
File size: 188.21MB
Note: The Software Platform and Applications version numbers can be found under Options-About
screen on the handheld.
Here is a second example for a Bold9780 phone if serviced by Rogers.
find:North America, then select ‘Rogers.' (We assume for a moment you are withRogers because
each service provider gets their own driver)
Next select a phone, e.g. 9780
Software For BlackBerry® Bold™ 9780 smartphone
BlackBerry Handheld Software v6.0.0.1879 (Multilanguage)
Package Version: 6.0.0.1879
Consisting of:
Applications: 6.0.0.448
Software Platform: 6.5.0.136
File name: 9780M_PBr6.0.0_rel1879_PL6.5.0.136_A6.0.0.448_Rogers_Wireless_Inc.exe
File size: 172.96MB
Note: The Software Platform and Applications version numbers can be found under Options-About
screen on the handheld / your Bold phone.
Now you might want to go back to:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
wait a bit till the page is populated and choose you particular need (you did not list in your profile the
phone company).
After you have the right device driver for Version 2647 hit download and store the handheld software
also known as the 'device driver' to a temporary location on your hard drive (remember it so you can go
there later).
When you get later an error it is not called ‘Device Application Loader Wizard’ but ‘Handheld Application
Loader Wizard’ (OK… semantic…. so we muggle users should not get the proper hint ...?..…that why
they call it a wizard...I guess...Potter wake up...).
Leave your DTM as is (no reinstall required), then install the new downloaded software on your
computer via double-clicking at the filename in the location where you stored your download. This
handheld software will later update the software on your BlackBerry Wireless Handheld, e.g. Bold9780
and is the ‘glue’ between the DTM and your phone.
If you get later a ‘Handheld Application Loader Wizard’ error message search for ‘Handheld’ on the BB
support page and find my posting there.
Now it appears you have an issue with the second phone, the Bold 9650. I guess you need an
additional entry for the second phone, i.e. have to install another driver for the Bold 9650 smart phone
and the line would then read after the installation in 'Add or Remove Programs':
BlackBerry Device Software v6.0.0 for BlackBerry Bold 9650 smartphone
I am sure the DTM can sort out which driver to select according to the USB connected phone model if
the drivers are present.
Since I am a muggle and write too much stuff (?) you wizards can have a LOL for free... -
Bold 9650 Calendar does not sync with PC after upgrading to OS 6
BB Model - Bold 9650
Carrier/country - Verizon / United States
Device OS level - 6.0.0.432
PC OS version - XP
RIM Desktop Software version - v6.0.1 B21
Outlook version - 2007
The symptoms - When syncing, events in Outlook transfer to device, but the events on my device are not being transferred to Outlook.
I do see that when I go in to my device calendar, then Options, my email addresses are listed as accounts, as well as the Default account. And, when I click on my primary email, it shows 233 entries in my calendar. How are my email adresses associated with the calendar?
I have gone in to the Set-Up App, clicked on my primary email address, then edit, then synchro options, and selected the Calendar. That did not help, so I tried uncheking the option and that did not help either.
If anyone has ideas it will be much appreciated!
Thanks,
dzmiklyProblem solved. I removed the desktop software and reinstalled. Seems to be working now, with minor gltches, but it's working.

Syncing bold 9650 to Vista and Win 7 laptops
Now I have a new problem . I bought a new laptop MS win 7, and I want to sync my BB bold 9650 to this and my old DELL Vista OS
I had to DLoad Desktop Software ver 7.1.0 Bun 33 cause its all I could find at the time . Found some ver 6.1.0 but they were not from Bb so did not want to download
When I sync my Bold with the Old DELL Vista the first 150 of my contacts got corrupted . It appears that the full NAME filed was moved to the company field and now
when i look at contacts in Address card I see nothing on the top line.
If I look at them in Business card view , I can se them but that is not the best way for me to be able to see them all easily .
I tried unistalling and reverting to an earlier DM ver 6.1.0 that I had before but that got corrupted and I am back to version 7.1. 0 Ver 7 dooes not use Intellisync so it syncs differently now
AT some point I deleted all the contacts on the device and transferred them via Out look one way sync .
I had backed them up before so I used that to send them to device.
Now I dont know how to map fields in BB to match outlook 2007 and if that was the problem why did only 100+ contacts have the field changed.
I could go through the 100+ contacts and copy paste "company " filed into name filed if there is no other way but I am afraid it will happen again if i don't figure out what caused it in the first place.
Is there a solution , and how do I map fileds in Outlook to sync properly with BB DM Ver 7.1.0 . I mapped them all correctly a few years ago when I converted from Palm to BB . Was basically trouble free for a long time
Thanks
P.S. I have heard people having problems with Win 7 sync and I have even touched that yetUnintalled and reinstalled . What I see when i go into advanced sync of contacts , fields > the first name , last name,
company name, fields are greyed out
I just cheked the new Win 7 laptop and the fileds are greyed out there also
So i dont belive all is well . Maybe they are not syncing all ?
I just synced after deleting one contact in outlook on my laptop and I see its still on my phone
this ver 7.1.0 suxx Have to find an earlier version that is not corrupted
Maybe you are looking for
