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 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 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!

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.

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!

OS 6 is available for BlackBerry 9300, please log on to www.blackberry.com and download latest device software from support section, install it on your PC and then connect you device with PC using USB cable and check for device update.

Bug with Curve 9300 WiFi

I seem to have the same issue as those with the Torch 9800 experience here: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Torch/BIS-loses-connection-when-leaving-a-wifi-net...
However, the issue is ONLY present when I remain in wifi range for an extended period of time (say, 3 hours or more).
If I leave my phone connected to WiFi for half an hour, and go outside, BIS automatically switches to 3G. However, after a longer time, WiFi connection drops but BIS does not reconnect over 3G. I have to turn the mobile network on and off for it to reconnect. This is an absurd bug, I have tried deleting WiFi profiles, rebooting, and readding them to no avail. Please patch the software, this is a big issue for me and one of the reasons I bought a Blackberry. Are there any actual fixes I can use right now?

I also have the same problem.. I just want to toss it out the window.. Lucky for it, it's not mine.. >.<

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

I have an IPAD 2 that I use to view an IP camera over a Wifi network. The Ipad is in a vehicle that leaves the Wifi range and then returns to the range. Upon returning to the range, the Ipad has trouble connecting to the network. (30 seconds)

I have an Ipad 2 that I use to view an IP camera over a Wifi network. The Ipad is in a vehicle that leaves the Wifi range and then returns to the range. Upon returning to the range, the Ipad has trouble connecting to the network. (30 seconds) The Ipad will eventually connect to the network, but by this time the driver is frustrated. I have moved the antenna to within 20' of where the vehicle comes to a stop. My Iphone does not have a problem connecting or reconnecting when used side by side with the Ipad. Both the Ipad and Iphone have Otter box covers. Has anyone run into this problem or have any suggestions?

30 seconds to reconnect to a WiFi network is not unusual, especially in an environment where other radio signals on similar frequencies are present. Sorry about that.
You might get better times by letting the WiFi base station pick another channel. But you might not.

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

WHY SUCH AN INJUSTICE THAT BBM CANNOT BE USED ON MY CURVE 9300 OVER NORMAL DATA SERVICE AND OTHER PLATFORMS CAN USE!

Hello,
I am using Blackberry Curve 9300. I purchased this phone for Rs. 17,250 before some 3 years, I considered RIM to be a Company providing premium services which is unique in itself and which worth spending on them and the most important thing is those are not available to non-blackberry users! Especially in case of Blackberry Messenger, which is such a service connecting all the blackberry users around the world, making a mark of precious symbol of the users of BBM.
Before few days I came to know about BBM being available on Android and Windows phones, my question is why this injustice with your own customers, you provide the app which they will use with their normal data plan and we people who are your real customers, who trusted in you have to spend not less than Rs.129 for just BBM!I must say RIM is the most back-stabbing company I have had ever dealt with! People are laughing at us as they are using the same service for almost free and we have to spend a huge sum for availing the same service, my question is are these non blackberry people your customers or we people who contributed in your success with hopes of trust?
My question is not why you made available BBM usage to non-blackberry users with such flexibility but my question is why can't you be loyal to your own customers?
I hope that RIM would have a pleasing justification.

Thanks with the signature but I already removed it from my profile too.
I was never under a rock when it comes to technology I know that in India before few months yoru Blackberry Z10 was Rs.44,000 and now it is Rs.21,000. I understand the ploy of making BBM cross platform to generate revenue, first in a technical sense and another by creating it advrtisement in the marker.
Do you think that taking an undue advantage of our loyaty and enduring the mockery of your own customer would take you anywhere? Don't you think that abusing your own customer's prestige would even affect you negatively? While your customer is paying Rs.129 for just BBM the Android person sitting next to him is lauging at him for he paid you and call him fool! Profits doesn't starts only by making huge business decisions but from the loyal and satisfied customers. You may always find customers all around always complaining but deep down if you have touched their needs they will bless you with good words at your back, maybe in such a way that you will never come to kow but it will grow you more. I am not here to deliver you a marketing lecture as i am in corporate law field but let me tell you what I read during my graduation, it said something like one disatisfied customer can discourage ten potential customers from buying your product and I have started feeling the same in case of online shopping but I do not know when the company giant blackberry would come to know!
When you said about expanding customer base, think about a company who is expanding its base of customers by disatisfing their current customers who always took pride in you by providing them services at harsh terms and in front of their eyes others are getting benefits at a very low cost.
Our family business is textile manufacturing, not as big as blackberry but we always knew that if we will start selling our goods by describing them as really premium goods and start charging out of lips and bounds, of course my product could be premium worth the price but one thing I could be missing would be a point of finance, there could be cheaper alternatives in market which could be selling at lower price which same usage. My concern is just to keep our eyes open.
Now consider a phone on which I can use Whatsapp which satisfies my messaging needs, gtalk and yahoo messengers for my im needs, push mails for emails, browsing and downloading for just Rs.99 and on the other hand Blackberry services for Rs.389, it is indeed clear the reason of downfall, though it is labelled as premium service and indeed it could be, permium service as I said earlier.
When you feel that your boat is sinking, you do not have only have to pull out the waters but on the priority basis you have to cover the hole too! Blackberry is just pulling out the water leaving the hole as it is!
If you say that legacy mode in BBOS could bother you from providing BBM for BB device, you know that it cannot be and even I know that, any technical person can know that as it is a little secret that I can use BB browser without BIS and many other apps are example of the same (to be a bit informal). See, I never asked this thing from last three years but now when you are making it cross platform why not to give a little benefits to those who paid you till now, if you can give it to those who are nothign to you?
My question is that why can't you provide BBM to be used on the normal data paln for your own old and loyal customers who paid you such a handsome amount from many years for your services as how you provide on other platform, just for BBM not email and rest of your services?

Curve 9300 won't turn on all the way, please help!

My daughter has a blackberry curve 9300. It froze on her so she tried to reboot it and now its gets 3/4 of the way and reboots again. Ive tried everythings possible like desktop manager and jl_cmder but nothing seems to work. If anyone has any suggestions i would be very greatful

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB):
With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
Remove the battery
Wait 15 minutes
Insert the battery
Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
Obtain a known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem.
Good luck and let us know!

I need to know a lot of things about Blackberry Curve 9300, I need hel please...

Hello there! Some of the questions or problems I'm encountering now maybe for some is nothing & seemed silly but for me it's giving me headache. First, just downloading & installing the Blackberry Desktop Software for PC is giving me a problem already, I downloaded & installed Blackberry Desktop Software v.5.0 but seemed not compatible with my PC & Blackberry Curve 9300, some options & features were missing/incomplete. So what is the best BB Desktop Software for BB Curve 9300? And I want to upgrade my BB Curve 9300 v.5.0.0.977 (Platform 6.3.0.63) to 6 OS. However, I want to know the advantages of the 6 OS first, what features are so special with this OS? Is it ok to download & install the 6 OS leaks? Among those leaks(V.6.0.0.448; v.6.0.0.418, v.6.0.0.380, v.6.0.0.344; etc.) what is the best & safest & most compatible with version of blackberyy Curve 9300 that i have??? Is it a must to upgrade my version of BB Curve 9300 to 6 OS? Í love changing my themes, wallpapers & ringtones but the version I have doesn't allow me to do so... So limited choices... What can I do???
I will really appreciate any comments, suggestions, replies regarding my concerns... Thanks!!!

Hi and Welcome to the forums!
Wow...that's a lot to pack into a single paragraph with a large colorful font! But, let's see if we can take your points one by one, shall we?

Exactly how did it seem not compatible? Precise descriptions are always better than vague generalities...which leave us to only guess...which helps no one I find...
Netteski wrote:

Again...what, exactly?
Netteski wrote:

The most recent version (6.0.1.18), available here:
http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/
BTW...the version of the Desktop Software itself is not at all tied to your BB model, nor your BB OS level. It is always best to use the most recent Desktop Software version, regardless of BB model/OS that you have. (There are some very special cases that are exceptions to that...but they are indeed very special.)

OS 6 is very very different from OS 5. I suggest you read the release notes, view the videos, and other things. If, ultimately, you decide you don't want it, then you can always fall back.

I don't know if those versions are leaks or not. But, if they are from a carriers download web portal:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
then they are official and not leaks. From what I can quickly find, the most recent official OS for the 9300 is 6.0.0.461 (from Telus). Typically, on this officially sanctioned (by RIM) site, we shy away from much discussion about leaks since they have bypassed the official channels and are not sanctioned by anyone for release to the general public.
Netteski wrote:
Is it a must to upgrade my version of BB Curve 9300 to 6 OS?
Nope...you can stay behind for as long as you want. Just be aware that someday your OS will be End Of Life and there will be no further formal support. Before you ask...no, I've no idea when that would happen.
Netteski wrote:

Given that OS 6 is even newer, I'd expect that your choices for those things would be even further limited. But, over time, that will shift and there will be plenty of options for OS 6 for you to play with.
Good luck!

Memory Card Issue with my BlackBerry Curve 9300

Hello,
I have been using the memory card for more than a year. It's a SanDisk or a ScanDisk memory card. It's 8 GB. I didn't use the card that came with my BlackBerry Curve 9300 phone. I'm always trying to delete files or to copy files, most of them are music files from my laptop to the memory card via memory card reader.
Now I am encountering a message that I need to repair the memory card whenever I try to insert it to my phone again. And most of the time whenever the phone automatically repairs it, some files are corrupted or considered as a "lost chunk files".
How can I recover those files? And why did it happen or always happen in the first place?
According to this site, you need to reformat it: http://www.techtalkz.com/tips-n-tricks/1535-memory-card-corrupted-here-solution.html
So what I did is to copied everything to my laptop then reformatted it completely.
It kinda solved the issue but for how long will I won't be experiencing the "repair memory card" issue and the "lost chunk files" issue?
Do I need another program to reformat the memory card and not to use the one that comes with every windows computer?
Does using a memory card reader or using a memory card adapter (for the microSD card) corrupts the memory card?
I have been researching on how to completely recover the files but I'm a bit confused.
There are a lot of recovery programs out there.
Can you guys help me out here? Thanks.
Here are the researches that I made:

I think you should try each and everyone of the solutions suggested in the link I provided, given that it covered both harware and software suggestions. And always reset the device by removing the battery whilst the device is powered-on. Leave the battery out for a minute or 2 after each step.
See if that resolves the problem.
