Curve 9300 as wifi router

I am looking for a app to enable my Curve 9300 to be used as a wifi or bluetooth router.
Want share my 3g with my android tablet.
Some one know how to do it? Or how to convince the Blackberry to build a app for this?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please see this:
KB31857 How to setup and manage a Mobile Hotspot Connection
Your BB may or may not have the ability to do this. If your BB OS is not sufficient, then the feature is not available. Further, some carriers restrict it's use.
Good luck!

Curve 9300 as wifi hotspot

Hi,
Will I be able to turn my curve 9300 to wifi hot spot and share its internet with laptop.
If it work I can save money spending on broadband dongles... does any one have any idea?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Operating System v7.1 is required for mobile hotspot, and the 9300 model is not supported for OS7.1
So, in short, no.

I REALLY NEED HELP WITH MY CURVE 9300'S WIFI!

HI !
i have a blackberry curve 9300, OS5. I got it secondhand. It worked really great, but the problem started when I've done that thing within the host routing table. Though my wifi is connected, I can't use the internet. whenever I tried the BB browser and any other application (e.g. facebook, opera mini, etc.) i get a message that says 'i am not in an area that supports blah blah...' or 'unable to connect to internet please try again later'. I checked the browser under browser config and it is set to my local network provider. i changed it to hotspot browser, saved it. But whenever I go back it also goes back to my local network provider. i have tried almost EVERY troubleshooting I've read on this forums and in other forums but still no luck. The problem worsened when I did a security wipe on the emails, contacts, etc.
-APN settings are disabled
-default browser set to hotspot browser
-firewall disabled
-data services are on
Everyone said that it has nothing to do with that activation enterprise so I did not configured it after wiping.
I also tried doing a hard reboot (pulling the battery out and waiting for 5 minutes before turning it on) but it will only fix the problem for sometime and it will go back again.
Calling my network provider would just suggest to get a plan when in fact, I was able to use the device's wifi well before without any plan.
I don't want to upgrade my BB to OS6 coz it easily drains the battery of device and I cannot afford doing that because I go out a lot.
I also tried changing my sim card and network provider but wasn't successful.
I also tried deleting the name of my local network provider in the service book under options.
What do you think could be the problem? Any suggestions? I really, really, REALLY, need help.
PLEASE ! THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE!

Hi miochan984,
Welcome to the support community!
A supported data plan from your mobile network provider may actually be required to use the Facebook for BlackBerry smartphones application as well as the browser. I would recommend verifying with them which services they support over a Wi-Fi connection without a data plan.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

Curve 9300 Leave WiFi Range

Whenever I leave WiFi range, BIS completely cuts out until I turn off and back on the mobile network. How do I fix this issue? It's incredibly annoying. I shouldn't have to turn off WiFi before I leave the house, the phone should just know to switch to mobile data if there's no connection on WiFi.

Try deleting all your wifi connections then readding them, happened to me on a few different versions, turned out it was the wifi profiles when i originally went from os 5 to os 6 and restored the backup but then i deleted all the wifi connections and it seem ok

Curve 9300, no data plan, gmail on wifi only

Hello,
I plan to buy a BB Curve 9300 but before I want to be 100% sure that I can configure it to be auto warned if
I get a mail on my gmail account but only via wifi because I have no data plan.
Thank you for your help;
Regards :-)

OK then here is your problems answer
The BB just developed for business men persons and not designed to be the way you want. It is a professional bussiness handset not like any other like Nokia, Sony Ericsion whic is perfect for kids and youngers like you. These sets support to recevie emails without any datapackage but for BB case you cannot.
You must have a dataplant inorder to get email notifications. If you dont believ me the try it by your self concern with the forum call every technical person you know and tell your problem and aks him to on the email notification services with using data plan. If any body does then please let me know.
I hope your problem is solved
Thanks and Regards

WiFi and email on BB Curve 9300

Bell told me there is no way to use my WiFi in conjuction with email on the Blackberry Curve 9300 unless I sign up to one of their data plans.
Someone confirm this? I would have thought that a device that has WiFi built into it would be able to use the WiFi I have in my house.
I have an Ipod with WiFi and that is what I am using to check emails when I am in WiFi range.

They are correct. To use any of the blackberry push functions you need a blackberry data plan. Once in place you can also make use of a wifi connection.

BB curve 9300 apps work but browser doesn't via wifi

hi,
Recently i got a new wifi modem (Teracom). While my BB curve 9300 is able to get connected to the network, i'm not able to browse using the browser(Opera in my case). I get a 'Connection failed' msg with 'Unable to connect, pls review ur network settings'. However apps like Twitter and Youtube and the built in social feeds app are working fine.i've tested the BB with other modems (nokia-siemens), it dint have any issues.
I'm not very well versed in this stuff. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Curve 9300 won't use wifi service

So I am not the first person to have this problem. I've been trawling the web searching for solutions but no-one seems to have any.
The problem is that my Curve 9300 will not use wifi connection instead of network data services. I can connect to wifi networks just fine. The phone searches the networks out, connects, puts the little icon on the home screen to say it's connected to a wifi network. It lists the name of the network up the top. Everything's great, except that when you actually go to use the internet, the phone connects to your data services instead of the wifi and you get charged for data consumption.
If you turn off the network services to try and force the phone to connect to the wifi instead, you get the error message:
"You are not currently in an area that can handle data communication. As a result, the Browser cannot retrieve any web pages. Please try again when you are in a different location, or contact your service provider if the problem persists."
To confirm:
My Data Services are on.
My APN settings are disabled.
In Advanced Options, my Default Browser Configuration is set to Hotspot browser.
In General Properties the default browser is Hotspot browser.
In Browser Configuration, the browser is set to AT&T Mobile Web. I have tried to change it to Hotspot Browser but I save the changes and leave the screen, then when I go back in to check, it's back to AT&T again. It's not saving the changes to make Hotspot the default configuration.
I did a battery pull to see if that would help and after the restart it allowed me to keep Hotspot as the default configuration but it still wouldn't connect if the mobile service was turned off. It has now reverted itself back to AT&T and still won't work.
I have read the thread on the Bold forum but for all the people complaining of having the same issue, there was still no solution. I really want a resolution to this because I do a lot of travelling and my sim card can not always connect to a local network. I want to be able to go to a local coffee shop and be able to connect, even if I don't have phone service in a foreign airport. I don't understand what the point is in having wifi on a phone if you can't use it.
Solved!

Blackberry curve 9300 connected to wifi but cannot use apps only bb browser

hi guys im new here and its my first time to use blackberry unfortunately for me im very disappointed.. im already connected to wifi but cannot use any application like facebook,twitter,badoo etc.. i didnt try my bb messanger yet but im sure it wont connect as well.. Even my BB app world giving me error message "we cannot connect you to the app world please ensure that your device is connected to a wireless network and try again" what the???? im already connected to a wifi.. and the weirdest thing is that i can browse the internet using the bb browser and watch videos on youtube on the youtube app installed already to the phone.. but again the apps that i installed is not connected..
So what i notice the simple rebooting of the phone wont work i need to remove the battery and wait the phone to load then i can connect to app world but after few minutes... it will give the error message again..
Now im thinking to swap this phone and get another brand if this problem wont be solve whats the use of apps if i cant use it??! i already called my network provider and they told me i need to purchase package for data.. are you kidding me??! i got wifi why should i pay for data!
im sorry for the long message but im so disappointed and wants to solve this issue asap .. thanks..
my phone software:
v 6.0 bundle 2475 (v6.0.0.546)

Hello,
thank you for your message and sorry for the problems you have with your BB.
Have you checked your Firewall Settings and Application Settings, to make sure, that all apps have access to the internet and are not blocked? Also do you use the phone on BIS or BES, meaning do you use it personally or are you connected to a corporate enterprise server? In the last case, their might be restrictions from your server administrator.
I would try to go through all that and see if it works afterwards. Also go and check the application settings to make sure everything is correctly set up there.
The other thing I would look into is your router. Have you restarted your WiFi router as well? Checked on the Firewall there and everything?
As for the datapackage: There are several people here on the forums, complaining, that WiFi does not have priority over mobile data. This means, that if you have a dataplan and activate WiFi, you would still browse using your dataplan and not WiFi, unless you a) either turn off your mobile data connection, which makes you unreachable for calls, sms, etc. or b) if you are a prepaid user, wait until your balance is depleted, in which case the mobile data won't work anymore and you will connect through WiFi.
This is however different and should not affect you. Since you do not have a dataplan (at least that is what I understand from your posting), there is no dataplan to use and hence WiFi would have priority for connection with the net, since it is the only available source.
I would give it a bet, that it has something to do with your phones settings in any way, or with the router itself (though this is probably unlikely).
You can check your firewall settings by doing the following: Browse to your Settings Application or hit Options within any app. Go to advanced settings, check your security settings. You may also want to check your phones WiFi settings, by opening the connections app and open the WiFi configuration.
Hope that helps, sincerely,
Ben

Curve 9300 error message: there was a problem during installation. Please try again when using app world

hi
I have a curve 9300 using os 6 and the latest app world 2.1.1.. something
when i try to download apps it initiates the download then after a couple of seconds after starting it shows the error message "there was a problem during installation. Please try again"
i have tried ALL the suppourt forums (KB26671 and KB30074) and suggestions/threads and called my network but none have worked.
these were reinstallign app world, making a new blackberry id as the other email address was associated with an old blackberry, security wiping the phone then restoring it and entering the new bb id, changing the date to 2014 and then hard wiping the phone and restoring it
i have twitter, facebook and bbm ect apps but these are RIM made i think and already preinstalled. everything else on the phone works fine
i have tried both wifi and network internet and battery pull
i really dont know what else to try or who else to contact to fix it. very annoying paying for a service you cant even use!
any help or more ideas would be great!
thanks

Hello carckberrypie,
In this case i would recommend wiping the BlackBerry smartphone. To do this we would need to back up the BlackBerry smartphone http://bit.ly/aSediX
Once backed up please follow the link below to perform a security wipe of your BlackBerry smartphone.
Link: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB14058
Test the BlackBerry smartphone and proceed with a selective restore as outlined below.

Unlocked bb curve 9300 , can't send or receive pictures

I bought an unlocked at&t bb curve 9300. At&t, Verizon doesn't work where I live, (northeast USA) I was told by my local wireless company that I could use my sim card with any at&t , or tmobile phone, as long as it was GSM, unlocked. My friend has a bb curve and I really liked it, so looked at one and it was GSM and At&T, unlocked, put my sim card in and I can call , I can text, my wifi works, but I can't send or receive pics or use the 3G. I took it to my local wireless company who then said "oh a bb, I don't know if I can make it work" After they had it for over and hour, came back and told me " no luck"
Is there anyone out there that may be able to help me or is it a hopeless cause? I really like this phone.
Thanks!

Wind doesn't offer the Z10 so you obviously brought an unlocked phone to their network. Unfortunately, the carrier (Wind in this case) controls APN settings so the ball is in their court. Keep in mind that just because a phone works on a carrier's network doesn't mean that every feature will be perfect. Since Wind doesn't support the Z10, you're on your own.
I hope that answers your question.

App World Missing Icon Curve 9300 OS 6

I recently noticed that my Blackberry App World icon was missing from my home screen. I drilled into each of the sub folders, selecting 'show all' for each, and still could not find the icon. I attempted to re-download the app from the blackberry website using my browser, but was informed that I already had the application on my device. I then attempted to replace the existing version, and still no icon.
I then decided to navigate to the application center and remove the app world application. I then navigated back to my browser (cleared the cache) and attempted to download the app. I received a 'download failed' notification, with the details of 'Invalid COD error 907' message (or something to that affect).
Based on a google search attempt, I have also attempted to register my device via advanced system settings -> host routing table.
And yes, I rebooted the device with a battery pull multiple times.
Now I'm stuck. Thanks for any replies or guidance.
-Jake S.
Specs:
Device: Curve 9300
Carrier: Vodaphone UK
OS: 6.0 Bundle (v6.0.0.448, platform 6.6.0.124)
App world: v2.1.1.19 (i think)

RH - Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I have already attempted your provided suggestion.
I navigated as follows: Options --> Device --> Applications Management; and removed the App World applicaiton. I rebooted the device, and used my phone browswer to navigate to the appworld download page at blackberry.com.
When I attempted to download, I received a 'Download failed.' notification. When I select to see the detail of the error, I receive this message: '907 Invalid COD A network error occurred'.
Any other suggestions?

Data Usage on BB Curve 9300

I have a couple of questions, I recently activated a BB Curve 9300 on a basic talk & text plan (I don't have a data plan at the moment, I do plan on updating my plan in the near future).
I'm within wi-fi range almost 99.99% of the time, so I was wondering:
Can I connect to my home router using Wi-Fi without being charged for data usage?
Can I install apps from BB App World (downloaded from my desktop) onto my device without being charged?
Can I use things such as BBM while connected to Wi-Fi, without a data plan?
Thanks, I appreciate the help!

That information is, by it's very nature, generic. With hundreds of carriers in the world each with dozens of different data plans, it's impossible to know exactly what your carrier has for you. Consequently, the formal answer can only come from those who handle your account...your carrier. They determine, by virtue of what you subscribe to from them, what services you have and do not have. They set the billing structure. They set your capabilities. So, if you wish for a formal and official answer, the only place to make that inquiry is to your carrier. Hopefully you will find someone there who has adequate knowledge.
Good luck!

Curve 9300 takes long to charge and discharge in 6 hours without use.

Vodacom South Africa
curve 9300 6.0 with bundle 2949
I got the phone in September. About 4 days ago the battery started to discharge even when I didn't use it. It only hold for about 6 hours. It also takes about an hour and 50 min to charge from 10% to full. I did about 3 battery pulls and it didn't help. I switched the battery with another one. It charges normal in the other phone and my phone does the same thing. I'm using the original charger.
My apps:
AccuWeather
Facebook
Twitter
Flashlight
Google Maps
Groupon
Memory Booster
Opera mini
Photo Studio
Telmap5
TuneWiki
Vectir Wifi Remote Controle
Whatsapp
None of these apps is running.

I noticed today that the charge stays normal for about 6 hours. Then before 7 hours it drops from around 65% to red. I also have signal problems. It shows the cross that there is no signal and then suddenly its full again.
