Q10 Screen Sizing Problem in Blackberry 10.3

Has anyone else noticed that there seems to be a screen sizing problem in Blackberry 10.3.
When you wake the screeen with a gesture or pull the handset from the Q10 pocket, the screen that it "wakes" up to is enlarged, requiring the user to use the finger gestures to shrink it down to regular size.
Or have I just not mastered 10.3 yet?

Hi Folks,
I've sussed this one out!
It is not a problem with the screen resolution or the software update, I had within the accessibility settings the "Magnify Mode" enabled.
Disable this and the screen behaves perfectly..........
False Alarm. Sorry!

  • Q10 Screen Lock Problems

    I have two issues with screen lock on my Q10.  First, when the phone is in sleep mode, pressing any of the number keys wakes up the phone and activates the lock screen.  I would like to know why this happens -- it doesn't make sense to me that any of the keys should work when the phone is locked.  Is this a software issue?
    Secondly, when I remove the phone from the holster, the lock screen activates which is fine (I have the phone set to lock when in holster).  However keys get pushed randomly while removing the phone from the holster.  For example, the password field can get populated as the phone is being removed.  The alt key and the shift key also can get pushed inadvertently. Again, is this a software issue?  It doesn't make sense that keys should be active until the phone is well out of the holster and the lock screen is activated.    

    Hey Calawson,
    Thanks for the detailed reply.
    Also just to clarify my reply, all the number keys and Q, A will wake up the screen.  There is no reasoning why these keys have been chosen to wake up the BlackBerry Q10 smartphone.
    I can definitely see your concern as if you are putting the BlackBerry Q10 in a holster and the padding is touching the ALT or Shift key it will be enabled when you unlock or even wake the screen of the BlackBerry Q10.
    There is no way to stop the ALT or Shift key from not being active when BlackBerry Q10 is locked.
    I hope this information helps, be sure to let me know if you have any more questions.
    Cheers.

  • Problems with Blackberry protect

    Hello Blackberry community,
    Recently I had my Blackberry Bold stolen so I said "No problem, Blackberry protect will take care of all my stuff". "Its in the cloud". But today when I did the blackberry protect recovery in my brand new Q10 I realized that I only have 31 contacts now! Almost all of my contacts are GONE! Does anyone knows what might have happened with the rest of my contacts? I don't understand how the Blackberry protect weekly backups that I had set up only ended up saving a small portion of my contact list. According to the Blacberry protect website, the last Backup was on August 5, 2014. My cell phone was stolen on August 12, so the backup should be up to date. But its not. Is there a problem using Blackberry protect to migrate from Blackberry 7 to Blackberry 10? Any indication as to what is happening with my contacts will be greatly appreciated.
    Regards
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello there, more likely them 31 contacts are from an really old backup, and all your contacts are now synced wireless with your email. That's why you don't have them in a BlackBerry protect back up.
    Did you set up your email yet? What is it, Gmail, outlook?
    Blackberry! Here, now, forever!

However, Approwld says that credit card cannot be accepted. WHAT A MESS!!! And there is NO EMAIL or phone number to contact regarding this problem which is quite RIDICULOUS !!!

  • EHP1 Upgarde Monitor screen resolution problem in a support message

    Hi Experts,
    We have recently upgraded our Solution manager to EHP1, iam facing a screen resolution problem with 15 inch monitors.
    Our key users have 15 inch monitors to their system and when they try to reply a support message under transaction data-> Overview tab -> reply it is showing only one line for them , due to which they are unable to enter the complete data in it.
    How ever We have found that this does not occur with 17 inc monitors as the required screen resoution 1280* 1024 is possible due to bigger size of the monitor.
    can any one suggest how to make the overview tab visible completely with small resolution monitors.
    Thanks

  • Mac Pro 2007 with Nvidia 8800GT screen redraw problems on Mac OS 10.5.2

    I seem to be having a slight screen redraw problem. Such as when grabbing the browser window and moving up and down it seems the redraw can't keep up,also seems problematic when watching flash or other video online. It does it in the finder too for windows listings or in icon view there is a fluttering or flashing back and forth, kind of like a white super split second flash when dragging the window box smaller or larger not as bad as when making smaller. Hard to describe but my original Ge-force that I pulled was not having these characteristics. I figure that the drivers need tweaking. In windows I am not getting these results. I have newer boot camp installed as well as the leopard graphics update done so I am trying to see if others are having a slight problem or maybe it is me.
    Also I make certain it is not heat related as I monitor that and it does not matter at what temp it is.

    Here's another similar experience -- and my solution.
    I bought a Quad-core 2.8GHz (8GB RAM) Mac Pro in May and got the "better" Nvidia 8800GT. I thought I was happy, but there were redraw issues after sleeping and a display "roughness" I found annoying. Upgrading to OSX 10.5.4 didn't help.
    I found it to be mostly absent on startup, but sleeping the Mac would bring it on. I.e., after sleep, the relatiionship between the 8800GT would be different than before. when I logged out and in again, the problem woud vanish. No what I expect from a "superior" graphics card. I ascribed it to funky drivers from Apple.
    The store I bought the Mac from offered to swap for my suggestion of an ATI HD 3870, so I went for it about a week ago.
    This card is far smoother than the 8800GT and just as fast in rendering benchmerks for graphics. (I'm not a gamer.) I am a happy camper! There is no stuttering, oddball redraw, or jerkiness as there had been with the 8800. It's perfect! Never mind that it may be 5% slower for gamers, it feels faster for my use.
    BUT NOTE: As I now see from reading several forums, I wasn't alone is getting a screaming-Mimi at first! The first 3870 ran at nearly full fan speed at power-up. The speed changed a little with resolution changes on my big Mitsubishi CRT monitor, and actually stopped when I switched to 1080x1920 @ 72Hz! Then the fan would start and quit, start and quit randomly -- convincing me it was defective.
    I returned this RED-shrouded unit and the store replaced it, this time with (randomly) a BLUE-shrouded unit. (Slightly lower serial.)
    Bottom Line: This replacement 3870 is quiet as a mouse! Fan runs near-silently at startup and after hours of regular use in a 75ºF room. I get the distinct feeling that a bunch of cards with wonky fan controllers were built, and some of us got 'em.
    Bad News: The ATI HD 3870 does NOT support multiple refresh rates under Windows XP-SP2 booting the Mac Pro, with or without Boot Camp drivers installed. No version of the ATI drivers fixes this, and ATI does not officially support Boot Camp yet. You can choose a resolution okay, but you're stuck at 60Hz refresh -- a pain for those of us who hate 60Hz flicker. (I like 100Hz refresh.)

  • Nokia Lumia 1520 - Screen Brightness Problem

    I  have two Nokia Lumia 1520.
    Both of them have the same problem. I will explain the problem to you in detail and before that let me assure you I am a Windows Phone long time user , have been part of the development , developed several apps for the platform and I have used Lumia 800 , 720 , 920 , 925 and now 1520. So I am well aware of all the settings , sunlight readability , automatic brightness etc. This problem is not due to any of these , I can assure you
    Now the problem , 
    I set the automatic brightness option OFF
    I move the brightness to HIGH
    Then I lock the phone
    When I unlock the phone , the brightness drops by 10% suddenly without any intervention
    This problem happens sometime. Some days I see this problem , some days I don't and there are few days where I see this problem very heavily.
    I purchased another 1520 and it has the same problem. I am very sure , from my experience that this is a firm ware issue. This is NOT a hardware problem , but a serious problem from your software end. It is prudent that Nokia recognizes this problem and finds a solution to this. Interestingly , I am not the only one who is facing this problem , the whole globe is facing the same problem and for such a pricey phone , this is a frustrating experience - very frustrating. I am sending some links , which will show the problems users are facing:

    The phone is rock solid and amazing except this irritating problem. 
    I have only few days within which I can request a exchange from the merchant. So if any Nokia official can confirm that a software fix is on the way , it would be super helpful 
    Nokia , please help !
    Moderator's note: We have removed the IMEI numbers. Posting of personal information is not allowed in this forum for security purposes.

    I have Nokia Lumia 1520 Black.
    I have also been facing the same problem with screen brightness.
    The problem occurs only when the Brightness is in Automatic mode.
    --> When the Brightness is set to Automatic mode & take out from dark location to bright location the display turns out to weird grey color.
    --> And then if the brightness is set to low, medium or high display comes to normal.
    Is this issue related to the hardware or software.
    If it is related to the Software will you be able to fix it ? or else How about the replacing with the new one ?
    Awaiting for the response.

  • Screen refresh problem where data is entered and the screen doesn't refresh

    Many people in the company are experiencing the odd screen refresh problem where data is entered and the screen doesn't refresh to show the updated result in corresponding cell formulas.
    Microsoft have issued a hotfix to fix the issue for Excel 2003 as shown. Microsoft released a hotfix for this problem (<a href="advisory?ID=978908">KB978908</a>). Display memory tends to pick up data from hidden sheets and pastes it
    into the active screen. No impact on the file. This occurs when protecting and unprotecting worksheets in VBA. I also suspect that enabling and disabling screen refresh contributes to this problem. In any case there is a fix, albeit with the following disclaimer:
    As of yet I have not been able to find a fix for this for office 2010 and 2013, Any suggestions would be great.

    Hi,
    Based on your description, Excel does not show the text strings when you typing. It may be caused by the cell format, if we set the cell format as ";;;" in custom format, it will not display the text that you typed. 
    And the issue may be caused by the third-party input method, there are some compatibility issue between them.
    If the issue still exits, please try the following methods
    Verify/install the latest updates
    Repair your Office program
