Unknown message icon on bb curve 8310

about a week ago, an additional nes message icon appeared at the top of the screen. It looks like a new message icon, gold and slanted slightly to the right. the number 1 next to it. Right now it is to the left of my regular message icon although I have seen it on the right too. I cleared both of my message lists and the icon is still there. I don't have any messages in facebook or twitter.
I don't know how to find out what this icon represents or how to get to its list.

The slanted envelope is an SMS.
The slanted envelope with a clip in the envelope is an MMS message.

  • Curve 9300 - New Unknown Icon next to New Messages Icon

    Evening,
    A new and unknown icon has appeared next to the new messages icon.  It is a white envelope with a black splodge in the centre and a red circle in top right corner.  It is not clear what is in the black splodge or red circle - could be an exclamation mark in the red circle.  The Icons and Indicators guide does not show this one.
    It also does not refere to any messages from any app that I can work out.
    Any clues?
    Bold 9790/Curve 9300

    Hello ColinStone,
    The steps in the following article should help regarding the update icon appearing on your BlackBerry® smartphone screen:
    These same steps will apply in BlackBerry App World™ storefront 3.0.
    After an update to BlackBerry App World 2.0, the update notification is still visible - http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB23718

  • JVT ERROR 517 message on Curve 8310

    SO my  mom dropped her phone at work today. She noticed the battery pop out along with the back, and scurried to put it back together and go back to work...
    Well when she comes home, she gives the phone to me and it has a blank white screen with the message that says "JVM ERROR 517"
    I tried taking the battery out and putting it back in, didn't work. I tried clicking the one option that says "reset" but that didn't work either. 
    HELP? Please? She has important calls to make and we need this fixed ASAP if possible. I noticed the media card is missing, is relevant? Does she need to find it/ get one?

    It IS a third-party app that's causing it and the third-party app is from Motek.  It's called Two In One Flashlight or something like that.  Do you have that app installed on your phone?
    Cheers.

  • New Message Icon - Can't find the messages! :)

    Okay so I've had my BlackBerry Curve 8310 for a week now.  Just been tooling around with it to learn how it works on my own.  Today I was trying to register the BIS to log into my email account to create a filter to stop sending my Gmail Sent mail back to my phone (so annoying).  Anyway, Tried registering as a new user via PC.  I entered my PIN and IMEI and it told me that an account already existed for that PIN.  I thought that was strange, I hadn't registered before?  SO just out of curiousity I clicked on the 'forgot my password' link and had it sent to my phone.  I see an icon saying I have a new messge however I cannot FIND the message.  Thought I did something stupid or wrong so I clicked resend for the password and again I see now I have two and then three new messages (third time is supposed to be the charm right?) on the icon but can't find these messages!  I looked in SMS/MMS folder, looked in Gmail and BlackBerry mail folders but still cannot locate these messages!  Where the heck did they go??
    BTW I finally registered with the BIS through my phone and was able to complete it there and then logged onto my PC and created the filter I wanted.  So I'm cool with that.  I just need to get that stupid new message icon off my phone.  Dunno if it helps but when I get new emails, the number on the message icon increases, so it must be something to do with email..? 
    Please Help!

    Set as follows (may vary depending on your device OS level):
    Search Type: Local

    Subject Message: <leave blank>
    Include Encrypted Messages: Yes
    Service: All Services
    Folder: All Folders
    Show: Unopened Only

  • BB Curve 8310 automatic restarting

    My blackberry curve 8310 is just restarting.. no startup screen just white blank screen and then restart every time..
    dont know what to do ...
    guys plz help....

    If your BlackBerry stays powered off with a white or black screen, follow the instructions below. The only indication of life might be the blinking red LED light in the top corner. Nothing seems to wake it up and Desktop Manager doesn't recognize any device is connected.
    1) Make sure you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
    http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/
    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. 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.
    http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/BlackBerry_Operating_System_Downloads
    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.

  • Sounds on Curve 8310

    I recently purchased a curve 8310. How do I set up different sounds for alerting me when I have a text message
    or a voice mail or anything other than a phone call?

    Go to the profile icon > Scroll down to Advanced {press trackball}
    Highlight the profile you wish to edit, then press the MENU button. (the one with all the dots on it, to the left of the trackball)
    Highlight Edit and press trackball in.
    A list will come up with all the different things you can change the tone for.
    If your issue is resolved, put a checkmark in the green box that contains the resolution.

  • My Blackberry Curve 8310 has no video recorder on it

     I there a way to upgrade my phone so I can have a capable video recorder to record videos?

    That's odd... I have AT&T and a Curve 8310; it has both a video and audio recorder built into it.  I could not access my video recorder until I bought and inserted a microSD card into the Curve.  The video camera's recordings take up a lot of memory compared to the camera, and if you don't have a memory card installed, this could be your problem.
    If you do have a memory card with space on it, it's possible that the video recorder icon was accidentally hidden from view on the Home screen.  While in the Home screen, press the Menu button (to the left of the trackball) and make sure "Show All" is checked.  This will show you all icons, even the hidden ones; see if you can find the video camera icon among your list of icons. 
    FYI - You can also access the video recorder through the "Camera" icon.  Click on the Camera icon, then once the screen switches to camera viewfinder, click on the Menu button (left of the trackball) and select "Video camera."  This will then give you recording access to the video feature if your device has memory.

  • Rookie needs help downloading Windows Live Mobile to her BB Curve 8310

    How do I download Windows Live Mobile to my BB Curve 8310??
    I've tried both the Hotmail Windows Live and the link to the Blackberry Live, but am not getting anywhere.
    The Hotmail Windows Live link comes thru, but if I click on it nothing happens or I get lots and lots of black little squares.
    If I clik on the try it link for the blackberry specifically, I get a page that just tells more information, but nothing to download.....??
    If I go the software page, I get confused; nothing there that is specifically for the Windows Live Mobile??
    Any suggestions??  Thanks in advance!!

  • Desktop software version 6.0 won't sync with Curve 8310

    I adore my Blackberry Curve 8310, but the desktop software has been a nightmare.  I have tried to download new versions, but the only one that will sync with my device is the one that came on a disk with the phone, version 4.2.2, which I have in my desktop computer.  I have a new laptop with Windows 7 and Outlook 2010 installed.  I downloaded the Desktop Software 6.0 from the Blackberry website, and when I try to configure the settings for syncing with Outlook, it gives me the message "The operation terminated unsuccessfully."  I uninstalled and reinstalled the software and updated my device software, but nothing works.  HELP! 

    Hi staceyw,
    Is your Outlook 32 bit or 64 bit? Currently only 32 bit is supported with BlackBerry Desktop Software 6.0.
    I would recommend a clean uninstall then reinstall of the Desktop software following this KB article. http://bbry.lv/bvwP5D

  • BBerry Curve 8310 Adding Email Account

    Hello, I've used a BBerry Curve 8310 with T Mobile for 2 years with enterprise account, works great, added and removed email addresses as needed.
    The "Add/Remove Email Address" feature is no longer on the main page, seems to have disappeared.  I tried "Show All", it is not hidden, just not there.
    Tried to add an email account through Setup Wizard, not working. 
    A) Is there a way to add back the Add/Remove Email Address feature? 
    B) Is there another means of adding/removing an email address?
    Thank you.

    go under the blackberry setup icon. there is an icon to do the email setup there.

  • Calendar (Entourage) Not Syncing with BB Curve 8310

    I have a BB Curve 8310, and the BB Desktop Manager for Mac is not syncing my calendar (Entourage) with my BB Curve.  Nothing I do works!  I have used every option on the BB Desktop software, including where the software overwrites the BB.
    Any ideas?
    This is complete crap - this software should work RIM!

    I think I'm having similar trouble. Just downloaded new Mac Desktop Software to be able to sync BB Curve 8330 with MacBook Pro and updated phone software also. Every time try to sync get error with no message or code on Calendar and Address sync "A sync error occurred. Please retry the sync." .... then puts a green checkmark like worked fine but have no addresses or calendar events transferred. Simply transferring from iCal and Mac's Address Book... very frustrating! Was using PocketMac but it wasn't syncing over newly-added contacts for some reason and was goofing my computer's calendar all up. Why can't things be easy and just WORK?
    Would like advice also please!!!!!!!!
    Thank you! 

  • Need to link BB Curve 8310 with Microsoft Outlook 8310

    I am brand new to the Blackberry world! I just purchased a Blackberry Curve 8310 through AT&T and have the BIS service. How can I link my Blackberry with my Microsoft Outlook 2007 on my personal computer (Windows Vista)? Is it possible to link my BB with Outlook email and calendar without BES? Will the email and calendar snyc throughout the day without being connected to my laptop?

    That whould be what you would use to set up on BIS. For me, it's easier to go to your BIS website and do it on the pc.
    Do you know where your carriers BIS site is?

  • Sync problem BB Curve 8310 and Desktop Manager v4.6 with Outlook 2003

    I have a BB Curve 8310 with Desktop Manager v4.6 that I syn with Outlook 2003. Calendar, tasks, and memo will sync.  The sync fails on the address book with this message:  Unable to read application data record. Translation Canceled!  From other message boards, I understand that the problem could be with a particular contact record but I can't find that record.  I've followed all suggestions about organizing Outlook to look for blank entries for name or company and have deleted all those found.  The names on the BB log are not alpa so finding the one that is incorrect is a problem.  The sync failed at record 1211 out of 1428.  I deleted the last record shown on the log and but then it failed at record 1210!  I deleted several addresses and now it fails at record 1192.  There must be more to this!  I am getting ready to purchase a new computer and all new software and would like to resolve this issue before moving to new equipment.  HELP!

    First perform a clean uninstall oof DM 4.6.
