Torch 9860

My 9860 has stopped sending emails to my car system. Please advise steps to take to repair.

Not knowing what you've already done... here are two suggestions.
1. Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
2. Delete the pairing between the BlackBerry and the auto and create it again.

What is your Operating System loaded to your device? Look at Options > Device > About, third line down beginning with a "v.7.0.x.xxx", What is yours?

Unable to receive email in HTML format on BB Torch 9860 with BIS

I recently purchased BB Torch 9860 with OS 7 and configured by personal and work email on BIS. I am receiving emails only in text format. In some emails with images that have hyperlink, I just see a link and images not displayed. All the images comes as an attachment in the email. My friend having another BB Torch is able to view emails as HTML. But he is with BES.
Is there any solution for my issue? I am not receiving any options in the email preference to enable HTML format for emails.
Appreciate if anyone could help me with this.
Regards,
Midhun

Memory leak issue on Blackberry Torch 9860

I own a Blackberry Torch 9860 Os 7.0 Bundle 1465 for the last 5 months
Previously I had Blackberry Curve 9300 which I had upgraded to OS 6.0. It had memory leak issues wherein my application memory would gradually dropdown to merely KBs within a few days and I had to reboot it to restore the same.
When I purchased Torch 9860, I migrated my device settings from Curve to Torch using the Desktop Manager. I face the same memory leak issues in this new device as well. I have 3 email accounts configured on my device and some social networking applications which include facebook, twitter, and some messengers. I usually delete my emails and keep only a few useful mails for reference. Still I am facing this issue wherein I have to reboot my device to restore the application memory. It starts from 152 Mb and usually dropsdown to merely Kilobytes of memory. The phone freezes for around 1-2 minutes sometimes when I am on call, or accessing my contacts.
Also to let you know that I have a 8GB memory card on my phone which has around 1.6 GB free space. I have disabled Compression on my memory card as well.
Please advise as I am having a hard time using this time this way.
Regards,
Abhinav Sharma
Thanks and regards,
Abhinav Sharma

I have the almost same problem when i run the phone gap app on the 9800 torch OS 6 than this build of 1.2 MB takes the memory of 40 MB at run time and the device gives the low memory message and close the app forcefully.
In my app phone gap is using 3-4 html pages and java script .
And when i navigate on these pages it gives this message of memory low.
Please help me to out of this .
And please suggest if any professional help in this

BlackBerry Presenter + Torch 9860 = World of Pain

BlackBerry Presenter. Nice idea, eh?
Who wouldn't want to save the weight of lugging a PC around when a handheld would do the job? [Except that it doesn't.] Amazon details say Torch 9860 is supported. OS version needs to be above 4.6. Mine is v7.0; I duly shell out money. Box arrives a few days later.
Honeymoon Period
Power up the Presenter, look at all the pretty lights. Download & install the desktop software. Connect the Presenter, update the firmware. What next? Oh yes, follow the email link to install the handheld software and we'll be away. But wait! What is this? An error message:
"Your device is not supported. Go away." *
Honeymoon Over
Oh, OK, I'll find a spare weekend morning to do the v7.1 OS upgrade. Sparkly new features. (Well, 1 of them is useful and if there are some patches to the unresponsive screen issues then maybe this investement in free time will be worth it). Now I have v7.1 installed, let's follow the link....
"Your device is not supported. Why are you persisting with this?" *
Lot's of web searching. Idle hours spent on the utterly useless and inappropriately named "Knowledge Base". Presenter doesn't support the Torch. Presenter does support all devices above 4.6. Presenter should not be used in the bath. Skiing whilst using the Presenter is not advised. Problems with your love life caused by prolonged use of the web site are not the responsibility of RIM or its employees. *
Aha! A deep link into BlackBerry.com to the actual software for the 9860 (supported).
“Error 404a – This page no longer exists and now you’re trying to be clever. You again? Your DEVICE IS NOT SUPPORTED whatever it is! Give up! Go away!” *
OK. Back the retailer. The trusty Sale of Goods act will swing my retailer into action on my behalf. Amazon respond at the speed of light or thereabouts: here are contact numbers for RIM in the UK, links to specific support and an email address. It's a tech problem, they'll help. Sorry you’re having problems. All the best, etc *
Follow the links. Find myself back at the Knowledge Base, again in search of enlightenment. Hmmm. Try the (non-freephone) telephone number. "Press 1 if you are a distributor, press 2 if you have a support account, 3 if you have no life or 4 to be sent around interminable links of our automated system until you lose the will to live" * I select 4 and due to a fault in the system find myself speaking to a sleepy but well-meaning chap in America. He is determined to help me. After some time trying to establish what strange BlackBerry device this is I have bought ("Yes, Presenter. P-R-E-S-E-N-T-E-R. P for Papa, R Romeo, E Echo" - you get the drift) he (politely) explains in the way that only a twenty something graduate can that this device isn't actually made by RIM, it's from a 3rd Party ("That's kinda like another company that we use to like do stuff for us..." *) and therefore there is not much information in his KnowledgeBase about it. "Can you try this link, sir?". Oh whoopee. We're back in the user manual. Yes, I can try following a link to App World. No, I can't find the app there any more either. My helpful assistant eventually gives up when I decline paid support, and gives me an email address to which to send my problem and advises me to see my network provider. This email turns out to be for their “Idea Processing” department. The automated response asks me to sign a confidentiality agreement before sharing my ideas on how the product may be improved. I decline, life being too short to pursue this line of attack.
Network Provider (Vodafone) is ridiculously helpful in the circumstances. They can't get it to work on a 9860 or a Bold 9900 either. They photograph the same error I have on the chance it will help BlackBerry chase down the problem.
Back to Amazon. “Thanks for copying your email to BlackBerry, We’re really, really sorry this is not turning out to be fun. Here’s the contact details of the 3rd party who actually supplied this item to you. Lot’s of love, Amazon. *”
Aha! This will be a fully accredited RIM partner with exclusive access to their limitless training resources. I am only seconds away from “Oh – you need this new version of the handheld software!”
But…no.
“Dear Sir, I'm sorry for this issue. I never used this presenter myselft [sic] so I can't really help you. I'm fine to refund this order for you.”
Me: “Can you contact BlackBerry and establish the root cause of the problem before I give up?”
Them: “I’m sorry I didn’t as it’s nightmare to get in touch with any manufacture.”[sic] It’s good to see that basic communication skills are still being tort at skool.
Penultimate Episode:
Let’s try the 1 person in BlackBerry with whom I have previously corresponded (regarding integration of BES with Office 365 but you never know). “Thank you for contacting BlackBerry. We will respond shortly.” + 1 week: Me: “Any progress on this?” “Thank you for contacting BlackBerry. Your email has not been delivered. Please consult the Knowledge Base”.
Final Episode:
Rant on the forum. Before I take the Presented and smash it with a club hammer, maybe someone who designed the Presenter will read this. Or even Sting’s lawyers:
I’ll send my SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my (x3)
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
I’m sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS. (repeat until fade)

Need help on how to re-install/wipe OS on my BB Torch 9860

Can anyone in the house please give me a breakdown on how I can wipe completely my blackberry torch 9860 device and re-install a new OS without any fuss, thank you.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
To WIPE, it all depends on exactly what level of cleansing you wish to do...refer:
Article ID: KB16307 Actions performed by the BlackBerry smartphone during the removal of stored user and application data
As for OS reloading, the simplest way is to, on a PC (you cannot do this on MAC):
1) Make sure you have a current and complete backup of your BB...you can find complete instructions via the link in my auto-sig below.
2) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
3) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop.html
4) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
It is sorted first by carrier -- so if all you want are the OS levels your carrier supports, your search will be quick. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To truly seek out the most up-to-date OS package for your BB, you must dig through and find all carriers that support your specific model BB, and then compare the OS levels that they support.
5) Delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
6a) For changing your installed BB OS level (upgrade or downgrade), you can launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC.
6b) Or, for reloading your currently installed BB OS level as well as for changing it, bypass the Desktop Software and use LOADER.EXE directly, by proceeding to step 2 in this process:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC.
If, during the processes of 6a or 6b, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

Torch 9860 - Problem with wifi network

Hi,
I have a BB Torch 9860 and the internet access doesn´t work properly when connected to a wifi connection.
With my carrier data plan, everything works. Every time i connecto to a wifi connection, the internet access stops working. I tried to clean all registered networks, added new networks, everything i can remember of, but nothing works. The only way to get internet access on my phone, is with the carrier´s data plan.
Is this some kind of bug or software block?
I serched through the forum, and tried some of the solutions and sugestions, but nothing works.
The only satisfied part with this purchase so far is my carrier who seems to be very happy with the access through their data plan!
Can anyone give me a hand on this subject?
Thanks,
Rui

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Not knowing what you already found and attempted, we risk redundancy...nevertheless, with that risk...
With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Resend Service Books (pre-BB10 devices only)
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support. In very rare cases, I have heard of carriers blocking the use of BIS via WiFi...but only they (your carrier) can answer as to if that is what they are doing.
Oh...wait...another though...a bit of a wild one...please check this:
Article ID: KB30076 How to check for an IT Policy on a BlackBerry smartphone
If you have an IT Policy and are on BES, then talk to your BES admins about if they may perhaps be blocking this. If you have an IT Policy but are not on BES, then you have much bigger problems to deal with...you will need to backup your device, conduct a ResetToFactory, and then restore your device (but ONLY partial...do not do a full restore or it will put the IT Policy back on and you'll be right back where you started).

Torch 9860 headphones not working

the headphones on my torch 9860 do not mute the phone and play, so cannot listen to music. They did work but have stopped, headphones are fine on other devices, and i can not find a setting on the phone that might have changed

There's not a setting for that.
Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most glitches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.
Now, try the headphones again.

Hi salmaatty
Have you recently installed any application before this Problem started ? Think carefully any new application , theme , wallpaper or any recent app update !
If you have then try to boot your device on Safe Mode , On Safe Mode delete any application which you think might be responsible for this issue , from Options > Device > Application Manegement > locate and delete any newly installed 3rd party application , it might help in resolving your issue :
KB17877 : How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
KB10040 : How to view or remove installed application on a blackberry smartphone
However .. If above fails or you're unable to boot your device on Safe mode then to recover your device you have to reload your OS , Try this method to load the OS again :

Torch 9860 sometimes goes silent

Hi,
My wife has a BB torch 9860, and I have updated the os to 7.1.0.523( 7.1 release 1646) from the earlier 7.0 version. Since this update , some times it gets silent, means when we receive a call , the phone does not ring. All the volume and sound alerts setting are ok, but the phone wont ring.
How can I solve this ?.
Thanks in Advance

Hi balubadan,
Please try to clear the Sounds and Alerts database on the BlackBerry® Torch™ 9860 smartphone then reconfiguring the notifications again manually and testing.

Torch 9860 does not starts

help!
my blackberry Torch 9860 does not starts, and the red led blinking a slow time and 3 times faster
I removed the battery and waited, when i put the battery back, nothing happens
I installed the blackberry desktop, but it does not recognize the phone, not from any sign that is connected
I tested with another blackberry and connected everything right, the problem is not the cable or pc
when I connect it via USB the red LED blinks 1 time 3 times fast and slow
when I try to start it nothing happens

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!

My BlackBerry Torch 9860 restarted itself

my BlackBerry Torch 9860 restarted itself and restarts again and loops again cant start the phone at all. Pls help! Urgent! What could be wrong? OS 7?? I think it may have some problem... I need help!!

Dear Fisol,
Thank you for your swift reply. I hope that my service centre would give me an immediate solution rather than awaiting 30 working days and being given a new one. I am EXTREMELY frustrated and disappointed by the symptoms my phone have may stem from poor quality assurance after phones fabrication.

Torch 9860 wont turn off completely

I bought a new Bb torch 9860 the day before. It was working perfectly fine untill this evening. It has now stopped turning off completely which it was doing very well before. Now it goes into a standby - like mode and quickly turns on when the red button is pressed. Earlier it used to take time in loading ( i know it's a time saver but what if i want to switch off my phone competely to give it some rest). I am unable to switch it off completely other than by the method of removing it's battery. Please, please help before i knock on the doors of the service centre, which i don't want to so soon otherwise my father would scold me for buying such a phone.
Also, it had stopped showing recent updates in bbm and was suddenly not playing any media file before this thing happened. These two have now been resolved but the turn off thing still wont work.

Try a Battery pull please, with the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery 15 seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot device. This will clear all cache like rebooting a PC. Then try again and see if your problem persists.
When pressing and hoilding the outer right button, there should be two options turn off or full power off. choose full power off.

My Torch 9860 Fails to Start

My Torch 9860 does not start up. I removed and plugged back the battery three times, but the screen is stuck on loading page. Can anyone help me with this issue, please?

How many times did you try? How many variations from the documented instructions did you try?
I recall one device I had (a 9550, I think) that required
Waiting until the screen became responsive
Holding the ESC until about 50% of the loading bar
Releasing the ESC key until about 80% of the loading bar
Then holding the ESC key from about 80% to 90% (I think)
That was the sequence that device needed, and it took considerable experimentation to find it. If you have only tried once or twice, and have not tried any variations, then you may wish to consider doing so.
Otherwise, the recovery methods are more drastic:
KB10144 How to force the detection of the BlackBerry smartphone using Application Loader
KB27956 How to recover a BlackBerry smartphone from any state
http://crackberry.com/blackberry-101-lecture-12-how-reload-operating-system-nuked-blackberry
Of course, those are only useful if the problem is not hardware. And hardware problems are impossible to truly diagnose at an internet-distance.

Is there anything else I can try.
Hi there,
Sounds like a hardware issue ! Still if you want to try then use BBSAK or JL_Cmder to wipe your device then load a fresh OS pack .Or first be sure that your battery is good enough then try those steps again :
( Credit JSanders )
1) Make sure you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed. BlackBerry desktop software
2) On your PC, go to Start > Run and copy and paste the following line exactly (meaning with the quotation marks):
"c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader\loader.exe" /nojvm
3) The Application Loader Wizard will appear -- click "Next."
4) In the "Connection:" drop-down menu, you should see "USB-PIN: UNKNOWN". Click the "Next" button.
5) You should then see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Hit Next and Finish and you are well on your way to getting your Blackberry back to life. Congrats! Just don't disconnect anything and let the lengthy process finish completely.
NOTE: If you do not see a list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead see the message "The Blackberry Desktop Software does not have Blackberry Device Software for the device that you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator," then you must download Blackberry's Operating System for your carrier and device. BlackBerry Software Download Site
Just select the appropriate carrier and network type, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the above steps again and you should be on the right path.
