Music to listen on my Blackberry 8520

I just bought this phone yesterday. I haven't bought the internet plan. Can someone tell me how to get music to listen on my Blackberry 8520? I have absolutely no idea about this.

Not having a data plan means you are probably missing out on most of the functionality of these devices not least of which is the ability to use free wifi for calls and data which would have allowed you to download your favourite music but.....
Easy. You have to plug the phone into the computer and access the System or blackberry folder, and it should be there. Look for the iTunes folder, the Music folder, or Documents folder. it is in one of those drives. Be Careful because if you take it out while it is still syncing, you will screw up your phone, and it will crash.
Another point, it would be best to store music on a media card, not the BB itself so if you don't have one, don't transfer too much.

You have to call the carrier so they can add the blackberry data plan. Without that plan it will not work.

Glitch in the BlackBerry 8520!!!

Hello all,
I have purchased a Blackberry 8520 through the Rogers Mobile Network about 3 months ago and I just started having problems with it. When someone calls the phone, there would be no ring when the phone is on Normal, Medium, or Loud profile. This affected all incoming alerts from Blackberry messenger, SMS messages and phone calls. It also stopped any music from playing and a red bar that says "Error Playing." would appear in the top right corner of the screen. Below that, a message pops up that says "An error has occurred attempting to play media "MusicDemo_Fontainebleau"." I contacted my service provider and they sent me a replacement phone as it was under warranty. Two days after I got the new phone, the same issues started happening. I new it couldn't be a physical problem with the phone so I started troubleshooting. I found that when the "Word Mole" game is running with the sound disabled for the game, and a call comes in, no ringtones or incoming alerts will work. The speaker is also hung up not allowing any music to be played. The phone can still be used to make calls or use other application. If the game is reopened and actually closed properly by clicking "Exit", all functions return. This only happens when this specific game is running. All other games are ok and there are no issues with any other programs that I tried. I have not downloaded software or music on the phone so it can't be a virus, and it is only running the basic programs that the phone comes with.
I hope this helps BlackBerry find a fix to this problem.

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Here are some articles from the technical library on similar problems,
Basically we know the error occurs but we can't prove the Word Mole did it,
First always go with the hard reset (battery pull)
Try the extract procedure and lets get some documentation.
Thanks

Blackberry 8520 keeps repeatedly downloading the same email messages and facebook notifications

My Blackberry 8520 has all of a sudden started downloading the same email addresses and facebook notifications, that I have already read, I tried deleting them totally and also deleted from my computer inbox, but it just downloaded the next lot in my inbox repeatedly instead. Sometimes it says I have 50 unread messages, which is the same 7 or 8 messages over and over again, showing as unread.
I have rebooted device several times and don't know what else to do now, can anyone help please?
Thanks very much

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Have you changed the settings for messages on your account on the providers website?
(Gmail, Yahoo, etc.)
If that's not it try the following:
Go to options advanced options, Host Routing Tables, click to enter. DO NOT click on any listing.
Press menu key, and select register now.
You will get a verification message. Then go to email settings and send service books.
I would suggest logging into the carriers BIS site via PC if you can.
You will get an email per account. Repeat the battery pull and see if the problem is
resolved.
Let us know how it goes!
Thanks,

Not able to use facebook on my blackberry 8520.

Still no revert received regarding my earlier post. Not able to use facebook on my blackberry 8520.

If you can access Facebook while on Wifi at home, but you are unable to access it while away running on your carrier's 2G network, I could phone your carrier. You have already completed the Cellular Data troubleshooting for the iPhone, so any limitations keeping your from connecting to Facebook over cellular will have to be answered by your carrier.

Opening pdf file in Blackberry 8520 curve

I am unable to open pdf file in my blackberry 8520 curve. Can anyone help me in this regards. The mobile does't have any pdf reader pre installed. Do we need to install software, if so please send me the link to download or the software itself.

PDF files can be easily viewed as an attachment to an email.
If you are wanting to view a PDF file downloaded to your Media Card, you will need a third party application, such as PDFtoGO, BeamReader or Repligo. Google will find any of those three for you.
Good luck.

Application error with blackberry 8520 curve

hello,
i own a blackberry 8520 curve and i keep having the same problem with logging in into yahoo messenger.
while i can log in from a PC or another phone, logging in from this phone seems impossible, regardless the account i try logging in with. after it displays the ''connecting to" message it pops this: "'internal error. please try again''.
i tried reintroducing the internet connection settings; i reinstalled the application, i've put another SIM card into this phone and i've removed all the entries from my yahoo account's apps and website connections list - and it keeps popping the error message
i hope receiving an answer, 'cause it's been 4 days without getting to use the app.

Blackberry 8520 curve hangs, suddenly white screen comes and the only solution is to re-insert battery with power source on?

My Blackberry 8520 curve suddenly hangs giving a white screen and when i restart it - the screen remains white. After i put it into charge - then only a successful start is done. So the only solution as of now i have - is whenever my blackberry hangs - i need to remove the battery - insert it again - and immediately put it into charging via USB/Electric-Power. Even if i re-insert the battery - the white screen comes - unless and until i put it into charging Earlier i was guessing - my battery was weak - but no such problem. pls advise.

Hiya!
Personally, I havent seen this so it may be isolated to your device.
Your best bet for warranty is to call your carrier.
It very well could be classified as physical damage and void your warranty. Or they may classify it as "manufacturer defect" and replace it.
Its hard to say as carrier's policys are different

Hindi Language in Blackberry 8520 Curve

Hi there,
I am unable to see hindi posts/fonts on blackberry 8520 curve.
Please assist me how to get this done.
Regards

Its a mere perception that Blackberry 8520 Version 5.xx doesn't support Hindi or Indic fonts.
Visit the following url from your Blackberry handset having operating system version 5.0 and above, including old Blackberry device 8520
http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23613317/A_HindiFont/hindifont4bb.jad
dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23613317/A_HindiFont/hindifont4bb.jad
Download hindifont4bb.jad file
You can download the Indic font for Blackberry and install it. You will be able read and write Hindi characters on your handset.
Please confirm if it works.
Thanks & Regards,
Shivshankar
