Quick route to setting vibrate on phone

Folks, I've been a WIndows smartphone user for years and will be switching to Blackberry when the Curve comes out on Verizon next month.  I've scoured the online documentation, but can't find the answer to this question:
How simple is it to execute the basic task of turning your phone to vibrate to suppress rings and notifications?  Do you have to navigate through menus or is there a quick key press or key combination to do this?  (FYI, Treo's do a great job on this function with a slide switch on top of the phone to automatically set it from ring to vibrate.)

Q1. Yes Curves device come with improved version of HTML browser. You can enable java script, allow pop ups, foreground and background color and images, support style sheets, can select emulation mode from a pool of 6, embadedd media support and many more
Q2. If you're on BES (access to corporate domain's mail with BES server setup) then you contacts and calendar will be wirelessly synced. You can accept/send meeting request as well. If you're on BIS (access to POP/IMAP enabled work/personal mail) they contact and calendar need to be synced manually using desktop manager
I don't mind in taking questions...happy journey with BlackBerry...

  • Optus ADSL2+ and WRT610n Quick Guide to setting up.

    Hi all fellow Optus (australian isp) ADSL2+ and Linksys users,
    I have a quick guide to setting up your new WRT610n with the optus supplied ADSL2+ Speedstream 4200 modem. This should solve most users problems with no internet connections, firewall rules not appearing to work properly etc.
    It took me several hours of stuffing around and online researching untill I got these two to work together and have full firewall funtionality!
    First up.... DON'T USE the LELA to setup the router! For some unknown reason, the laptop I used to setup the router, was configured by LELA to be a proxy and gateway, and unless that laptop was on.... the router wasn't passing info through it and back out to the internet! A full Reset of the Router was needed to clear this setting!
    Now Lets get started.
    BEFORE inserting the router into the network and connecting everything up, we need to reconfigure the Speedstream modem to FULL BRIDGE mode. NOTE! this will infuture disable the Web interface to the DSL modem, so changing to FULL BRIDGE mode should be the last thing you do to the modem before logging out. A full hard reset (little button) will restore the web functionality again should you need to put it back to normal.
    1) Setting Speedstream 4200 to Full Bridge mode - This is necessary for the Modem to fully pass on ALL of the ISP settings. Such as correct gateway info, DNS info, "REAL" online IP address (not the generic psuedo 10.x.x.x number) etc.
    - To do this, open your web client, Internet Explorer or similar. And enter the IP address 10.1.1.1
    - Feel free to look around the settings of the modem but don't change anything just yet. Wouldn't be a bad idea to take screenshots of all the settings pages now like I did should I need to return it to original settings.
    - The Webpage of the modem will open up and click on PPP - Take note (as in write this down!) of your "PPPoE 8/35" type which you'll select in the router later, and your Username for optus logon and password (you should know that or go looking for that paperwork that has your username and password that came with your optus Modem installer CD). You will enter all this login info in the router later as the router will do the logging in and take over from the modem!
    - Next, click on Mode - You will see 3 options. For most, it will currently be on Optus Bridge. This mode enables a router inside the modem and is now to be replaced by the new Linksys you just bought. By Changing this to FULL BRIDGE mode, you essentially disable the modems internal router and turn it into a dumb modem (like the good old days of dumb dial up modems yey!)
    - When you've changed to FULL BRIDGE mode, it will tell you the Web interface is now disabled. Close the window. And lets get to configuring the router.
    2) Plugging everything in time!
    - The Speedstream 4200 ADSL2+ Modem stays plugged into the wall as normal, but the LAN cable which used to go to your computer now plugs into the WAN port of the router.
    - Plug the PC into one of the LAN ports of the Router also.... or if like me, you have a Switch that all the PC's use, plug that into the router.
    3) Setting up the WRT610n (or similar linksys router)
    - Open Internet Explorer/Firefox and enter the IP Address of the Router (Fresh install IP is 192.168.1.1)
    - Username is "admin" and password is "admin" (you'll want to change this later I'm sure)
    - OK now your in! We need to setup the internet account settings.
    - Setup-Basic Setup page:- Internet Connection Type will be what you saw in the modem PPP page (you did write that down didn't you?). For me, I select PPPoE.
    - The enter my optus username info and password
    - click on Keep Alive (30 Secs).
    - Then click Save Settings at the very bottom of the webpage.
    It will likely ask to reboot.... let it do so
    Now at this point:
    - Your modem should have always been in Sync
    - Your LAN IP from the WRT610n should be in the 192.168.1.100+ range? (I changed this later to put my IPs back in the 192.168.0.100+ range so I didn't have to reconfigure static PC's or printers around my network)
    - Your Router should have reset about now and hopefully logged onto the internet through the modem.
    To check all is working fine. Open the Routers webpage again and click on Status. Under the Internet Connection area, Click connect if it hasn't already connected for ya. This page should auto-refresh.
    Check that the connection says Connected and that the IP addresses given in all the fields appear to be internet addresses (ie not 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x etc). If not, check that the status lights on the modem are all correct (you know how it should look when it's ok).
    Open IE or firefox and check that you have internet!
    It's important to make sure that the Internet IP Address in the Status page matches the one you get from http://www.whatismyip.com/. Because if it doesn't, then the Router isn't truely at the front of the Internet-Lan boundary. If this is the case, you may still have internet working ok, but the firewall portforwards may not work as seen in other forum posts around the net.  
    If it's OK, then Grab a Beer and Celebrate, you've just saved yourself 6 hours of hair pulling frustration!
    SUCCESS!
    Now, if your so inclined.... I would highly recommend changing Admin passwords, adding security to your Wireless connections, changing your DHCP to something your comfortable with or just leave them alone if everyone is server assigned IP's. I find it's a good idea to use the DHCP Mac reservation in the basic setup so I know each PC will get the same IP each time it logs into the router and thus makes Portforwarding SOOoooo much easier knowing the IPs don't change on you when the IP lease time expires if the PC has been offline too long.
    Please feel free to comment on this, I'm pretty sure 99% apart from grammar is correct! Hope it helps many new and old users.
    Have a brilliant day! and may the force be with you!

  • Quick camera button sets the camera in automatic settings.

    Hi,
    A friend is having troubles with his Z3 :
    He used to take pictures with the quick camera launch button, but since a recent camera or system update, when he use this button, the camera is set to automatic mode instead of manual, with poor resolution and quality settings. If he launches the camera with the standard button from the phone menu, everything is fine and perfectly set up.
    When the camera is used from the quick button and set back to the correct quality settings and manual mode, after closing it, it goes back to auto mode with bad settings. Same thing when he slides the camera icon from the locked screen. The only way to get the proper settings when launching the camera is to use the icon from the phone's menu.
    He tried a lot of thigs, from uninstalling the camera updtades to searching everywhere on the internet, there is no informations or messages about this problem.
    Where is this problem coming from ? The quick button is unusable since that update, it's a shame !
    Thanks in advance !

    Well not really, I had it too and we are 100% sure that the quick camera button starts the camera in it's deffault settings since a recunt update.
    What would be the point anyway of a button like this if the camera isn't usable ?! The aspect ratio is even set to 16:9 in 8mpx instead of 4:3 12mpx…
    My friend is so used to launch the camera with that button that now he keeps using it by "error" and take photos that are not proper to use later…
    I'm personally using a nexus 5 and had some bad changes after some automatic updates too, but this one on the Z3 simply kill one of it's most useful feature, and since almost nobody is talking about it I'm afraid that it will stay like this forever.

  • HT201328 I have been given permission for unlocking my iphone 3 GS from Orange. I want to set up the phone for my wife to use with a new number and carrier. Do I unlock under my itunes account first or set one up for her and then unlock the phone.

    I have been given permission for unlocking my iphone 3 GS from Orange. I want to set up the phone for my wife to use with a new number and carrier. Do I unlock under my itunes account first ( I now have a new iphone on this account) or set one up for her and then unlock the phone. I am worried about upsetting the new phone.

    I would complete unlocking as is and then
    restore as new once you know the iPhone is unlocked
    Be aware Orange will process the request at their speed
    one of the reasons they usually reside at bottom of User Sat surveys
    will likely take weeks
    This may also help

  • I have my apple i.d set in my phone but when i go to download an app it has a different i.d how do i fix this

    i have my apple i.d set in my phone but when i go to download an app it has a different i.d how do i fix this

    If you are UPDATING your app, it may be because that previous app was downloaded using another Apple ID.
    If not, you can try going to:
    Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Tap the top bar with your Apple ID>Sign Out and then Sign back in
    This may fix the issue you are having with it wanting to use another Apple ID.

    You can call Verizon to replace it or go to an applestore to replace it since it won't even power on with multiple chargers.

  • I have a 'family' yahoo email address which is shared across several phones. How can I set up my phone so if I delete an email which isn't relevant to me it doesn't automatically delete from the other phones?

    I share a yahoo email account with my husband and children. The emails may be for one or more or of us. When an email arrives on my iPhone 5C, if it is not relevant to me (because it's something he is dealing with) then I would like to delete it just from my phone without also deleting from his phone. Or it may be an attachment like a photo which I don't need stored on my phone, but will need to download when I get home and on the PC. He can delete from his Samsung without it deleting on my phone or on the PC, but I've not found a way of setting up my phone so it works the same way. Please can someone tell me which are the best settings to use?

    To set it up as POP you need to delete the account, reboot the phone by holding the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds), then add it back following these instructions: Forcing creation of a POP or IMAP email account
    I understand that you have used the same account for many years, but the technology is also changing constantly. Years ago the standard was POP (Post Office Protocol), which was designed at a time when it was inconceivable that anyone would access their email from more than one device. When people started using multiple devices, for the most part they wanted to see changes on one device mirrored on another. A new standard, IMAP (Internet Mail Access Protocol) was developed. With iMAP the master copy of all messages resides on a server, and multiple devices are kept in sync with the server. So if you delete a message from one device it is removed from the server, and then removed from all other devices when they next sync. This is the same way Microsoft Exchange works. Other benefits of IMAP include the ability to have multiple mail folders that are kept in sync across devices. In your case you could use this to create a separate folder for each family member, so they could move messages to their own folder and not clutter up the shared Inbox. Most computer mail readers can even automatically sort incoming mail into folders based on the contents of the message.
    IMAP is considered a "higher level" standard than POP. When you create a mail account iOS devices query the server and ask what it supports; if it says it supports IMAP then the account is automatically configured for IMAP. So if you really want POP you must fool it, as described in the link above. In my experience Android devices default to the highest level protocol also, and I suspect newer Blackberries do (although it has been 15 years since I used a BB).

  • I have a new email address. Changed this on my itunes account. On iPhone deleted old icloud account and created new with new email. I have set find my phone to on. When I download music it no longer goes to icloud an does not show up on my iphone.

    I have a new email address. Changed this on my itunes account. On iPhone deleted old icloud account and created new with new email. I have set find my phone to on. When I download music from itunes it no longer goes to icloud an does not show up on my iphone.

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

  • Each time I connect my iPhone 4s in to iTunes as it keeps trying to set up the phone as a new one. How do I fix this?

    Each time I connect my iPhone 4s to iTunes, it tries to set up my phone as a new one/restore from back up. I have it all set up already, but it keeps appearing. What do I need to do to stop this?

    Hello there, deelish.
    A great Knowledge Base article that has some valid information is:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    The pertinent section for you would be:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities!

  • How do I set up my phone to use in Europe

    how do I set up my phone now that i am in Europe and not in the USA

    If it's an unlocked phone, there is nothing to "set up". Just put in your SIM and fire it up.
    If it's locked to a US carrier, then you're out of luck. The only GSM carrier in the US is AT&T and they will not unlock iPhones under any circumstances.  Verizon and Sprint use CDMA. They will unlock the SIM for customers in good standing to use for international travel, but if service with them is terminated, the SIM slot will be re-locked.
