Used 8300

Bought a used 8300 curve. Verizon tells me the server is blocking web service and email account set out side the server. Any help?

No I didn't say that, I read your menu choices which are related to pay as you go plans or in your case, flex pay plans.
You have an address book. Open it and go to the SIM Phone card and copy all your SIM contacts to the BB Address Book.

8300 from German to English Hardware

Hello all!
I'm getting a used 8300 for free from a German friend of mine; unfortunately, I don't know German and don't want to be typing in it. The device changes languages easily back and forth, but on the German keyboard the 'Y' and 'Z' are swapped. I priced out a new English keypad on eBay for $25, but I'm wondering how I can change the software to reflect the physical button change.
Thanks heaps!

You can't. There is not a software change for that.
You can get a new keyboard, but there is not a software replacement to change the QWERTZ keyboard functions to QWERTY.
You are best learing to type with replacing the Y and Z as needed, or getting a QWERTY device.

Cannot open Planning application : An error occurred while processing page

Hi,
I'm using EPM 11.1.1.3 on Linux Server (Red Hat). Recently, I had to stop and start all services after which I am unable to open any Planning application. It gives me the following error:
An error occurred while processing this page. Check the log for details.Please close the current tab and open application again
An error occurred while processing this page. Check the log for details.
I cannot open it through Workspace also. There aren't any logs in %HYPERION_HOME%/logs/Planning which mention anything about this error. Appreciate if someone could suggest a solution.
Cheers,
Sahil

Thanks for sharing your expert opinions guys. I have checked the suggested log HYPERION_HOME/deployments/Tomcat5/HyperionPlanning/logs/catalina.out
It seems to be a JDBC connection error. This brings me to the point that I also reconfigured Planning over the existing configuration (8300). could this be the cause of the error as other utilities (Web Analysis, Essbase, Shared Services etc.) are working fine (I did not reconfigure these).
Kindly have a look at the log below from the aforementioned path and suggest a solution. Greatly appreciate any help.

So Can any one help on this how to achieve this w.r.t Planning Port, WorkSpace,Shared Services Port....

New Curve

ok, my wife just got a new slightly used 8300. We put the sim card in and everything worked fine. except for the e-mail. we did call today and tell att we wanted the data plan for a BB. When I go to the set-up wizard, it asks me if I want to set up with BES or skip the step.. I came here and tried to set it up and it said I need to register the phone. I followed the steps. Do you know how long it takes for registration?? or if theres something else i need to be doing?? Thanks in advance
Solved!

Before using BlackBerry service call your operator and subscribe for BlackBerry data plan. Once you have it you should use Email Settings icon for integrating email IDs. The icon (Setup Wizard) your using to set up your mail is used to integrated you device with enterprise mail system.

How do I use my 8300 as a modem for my laptop

Hi all,
I'm new to this forum. This is my first post...
I'm trying to set up my 8300 smartphone to be used as a tethered modem for my laptop to be able to get the full internet content anywhere with in cell coverage.
Question 1:
I got instructions from the 'BlackBerry HELP' icon on the phone (my question was: how do i use my device as a modem) which seemed very complete. The modem is dial-up and when I try to connect I get Error 718 (basically a timeout error).
Can anyone help?
Question 2:
Since this uses dial-up, would I be using my cell phone minutes?
Thank you, Lar

hello,
first thing is to look on the forum if people have already solved your issue. In this case, the tethering subject is quite frequent. You will certainly find your answer among these discussions :

BlackBerry built carrier specific devices. Almost every carrier have these device locked to network. Meaning a device from one carrier won't work in other network/country. What you're face after inserting SIM is the reason of that. You can purchase unlock codes from GSM Phone Source or Unlock BlackBerry. But again carriers follow a policy where you can have BlackBerry services only if you avail their bundled package. Moreover, if your carrier is not allowed to have a specific device from RIM and you purchase an unlocked device from else where and somehow you become able to use then your carrier will not be able to provide after sales support for that particular device as they don't have it in their portfolio.

Hp 8300 SFF How to enable 3rd montior when using MAtrox p690 plus vidoe card with windows 7 pro

I have an Hp8300 SFF running Win 7 pro with the onboard video as well as an Matrox Millenium P690 video card
My Current configuration is using the Matrox as Video 1 and 2 but want to have a 3rd monitor running off of the onboard intel card. I was previously able to do this in WinXP but it will not work in Win 7.
I have enabled the intel in the bios and it shows in the device manager but I cannot get a the 3rd monitor to show in the Display.
I have tried using the onboard video thru the vga port as well as the display port and it still will not display. I have also tried a usb to vga and it will not display the 3rd monitor.
The Intel and the Matrox card show in the device manager but there is no option to enable the 3rd montior

Using the BB 8300 as a PDA with Verizon

I have been considering the purchase of a BB 8330 for the express purpose of having the PDA capabilities. I do not want to connect to email or use internet functions. I do want to connect to my computer via USB and sync the calendar, phone book and contacts in my Outlook file and any notes I may add just as I do now with an older Palm Pilot PDA. Verizon is telling me that I will need an additional data service plan in order to transfer the data between the computer and BB. Is this correct? Can I use the BB 8330 as a PDA independent of the Verizon service?
Also, my Palm has the capability to transfer a Wrod or Excell file from the computer and edit and view it on the PDA. Will the 8330 do this?
Is software that is not packaged with teh Smartphone necessary and available to allow these functions?
Again, all I want from Verizon is the phone service. All else I want to do through the USB and Computer.
Your answer will determine if I buy the BBs as Christmas gifts for my wife and myself or stick with my old phone and get a new stand alone PDA. Thank you for your help in making this decision.
Harold
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yes you will need a data plan on your blackberry, your bb can use a program called documents to go and edit them on your blackberry, but it is buggy to say the least, but not a bad program. The blackberry is defiantly a better device then any PDA you will find though.
If someone helped you give them kudos. Research all info!

What steps do I need to take once Verizon unlocks my sim card for international use on another carrier

Hi, I am traveling to Romania in a few days. I called Verizon Global Support and had them unlocked my sim card for the 4s.
They told me there was some steps I had to take after they unlocked it and I will find these steps on the Apple website.
Well I cant find what they are talking about and my search on the internet is not giving what I want.
I see things about Sprint 4s and that u must connect your phone to Itunes to complete the unlock process is this the same for verizon ?
The Verizon Rep told me I will be able to use a Internation Sim but I had to connect my phone to a computer after replacing the International sim and go threw a whole process of Restoring and resetting my phone threw Itunes. Is there true ? I dont not have a internation sim with me is there any other way to see if its unlock and how the process is ? Do i need to set my phone to only run on GSM when I get there or will the International sim automatically switch the band ?
I know its alot of question all at once but i just want to get to the point.
Thanks any help will be appericated

This is the only thing I could find but it does not answer my question or even what I was told by the Global Support Rep.
Verizon has confirmed (here and here) they WILL unlock the SIM on the iPhone 4S, allowing for use of local SIM cards while traveling abroad (no word yet on whether this will allow for use on AT&T and T-Mobile.) This is different than the jailbreak unlocking method; SIM unlocking through Verizon is permanent and will not affect your warranty in any way.
1. Meet the following requirements:
* Must be a Verizon Wireless customer.
* The iPhone 4S being unlocked must be active on a Verizon Wireless line of service.
* The line of service must be active at least 60 days.
* The line of service must be in good standing for the past 60 days.
* Only one SIM Unlock per line every 10 months.
If you don't meet one or more of the above requirements, call anyway. You may still get lucky.
2. Insert a foreign SIM into the SIM card slot on the side of your phone (only required to confirm that the unlock is successful.)
3. Call 1-800-711-8300 (Verizon Global Support) and ask the representative for a SIM unlock. Occassionally a representative may not know exactly what you are referring to; make sure you are not transferred to a different department. You are in the right place. Explain that they should have a walkthrough on how to do this, and that it allows for the use of local, non-Verizon SIM cards while traveling abroad.
4. Get confirmation from the rep that the unlock has been applied to your account, then check your phone to make sure it recognizes your SIM and can connect (if successful it will roam on AT&T, assuming you are calling from the USA.) You will NOT see an unlock confirmation in iTunes as that is for a factory-applied unlock only.
5. Enjoy your new unlocked iPhone 4S!

8300 Freeze and Crash While on Phone

I've had my 8300 since February or so and for the last several months it's been doing this thing where I am talking to someone, when suddenly they get cut off. The screen is usually black at this point (because I wasn't using it anyways) but the red light at the top flashes a few times (though I don't necessarily have any messages), then the screen lights up and I get a turning hourglass. This will stay like this for anywhere from 30 seconds to 5 minutes, during which I cannot do anything (turn it off, even taking the battery out doesn't fix it, as it returns to doing it when I put the battery back in) aside from activate Caps, Alt, or Num Lock (not that those do any good, of course). When it's done doing this, the Blackberry logo comes up and my home screen appears, giving me a message reading "Verifying Security Software". After this, I can use the phone, but it doesn't have the memory of the previous call (in other words, it doesn't show up in my recent call list, nor does it remember who the last person I called was in my address book).
These freeze ups don't happen regularly at all, they're entirely random and I know I'm not accidentally pressing anything to cause it.
I've called tech support at both Blackberry and my service provider, neither of which were much help. Even talking with the people I bought the phone from, they didn't have any idea what the problem was.
One tech support guy did ask me what my memory usage was like and he said it was fine, so it's not that the call is overloading it or something.
Any ideas? I will GREATLY appreciate any help, as you might image this is really really aggrivating. Thanks!

Mine does the same thing too..... screen goes black. Often during a call but sometimes when using the browser or other applications. After a few minutes the watch glass comes on and it basically reboots. It seems to recover faster if I plug it in????? Although it still comes back without being plugged....and starts working again. So I don't think it is a battery issue unless the battery is losing charge for a few seconds.
I am on Rogers in Canada.
I reloaded the software and applications. It did not solve the problem.
It started happening when my 8310 Curve was about 1.5 years old. It was occasional at first. Once every week or two. Now it happens 2 or 3 times per day.
When I reloaded everything from scratch, I did not install any 3rd party applications or restore any databases. It did not fix the problem.
Only thing left to try is a new battery. Don't want to waste $50 bucks on a new battery if the hardware is faulty. Rather just buy a new phone.

Spinning circle * Thunderbird is not responding when I try to write or access emails. I had attempted to delete a bunch of old txt messages in seldom used Gmail

I saw I had almost 30,000 txt messages on a Gmail account that I had created a gmail account for on Thunderbird. I didn't realize that they were going here from Gmail. I highlighted all of them and attempted to delete them. The spinning circle finally went away and all of them were gone. But when I tried to do anything else on Thunderbird with my regular email accounts (Comcast & Hotmail), I would get a spinning circle and Thunderbird is not responding. I had to use Ctrl Alt Del and then reopen. I tried compacting but this morning when I tried to write an email from one of my Comcast emails in Thunderbird, again I got the spinning circle and Thunderbird is not responding. In order to do anything, I have to close the program by hitting Crrl Alt Del and try again.
My Trash Local folders says 8300.
This morning, when I tried accessing Thunderbird at the bottom of the taskbar it said, "downloading....of 17,000 to All Mail. Had no clue what that meant. I let it continue until all were and thought my issue would be resolved. But no. :(
Something obviously got corrupted in the program. What do I need to do to fix this?
Thank you.

I have AT&T & Curve 8300 running BIS - Can I upgrade-

to version 2.5 of the device firmware along with the companion v4.5 or 4.6 desktop software?
Here's a little background:
I bought my Curve last fall at an AT&T store. I had been a quite satisfied Palm customer since 1994 and so had accumulated over 1500 very detailed contact records, as well lots and lots of appointments. But I had to return my latest Palm device, a Treo 680 within the 30 day warranty period due to a severe problem with battery life. To my frank amazement, it stay charged up enough for use for more 3-4 hours at a time. (I'm a heavy data user but not that heavy!) So I decided to make the big switch, thinking that Palm technology was becoming obsolete anyway and the company's future was in doubt.
It turns out this was a really good move, except for one thing: with the Treo I had become acustomed to not needing to lug my laptop around on planes, etc. because I could do most anything I needed on the Palm, including most MS Office work via the Dataviz software product Documents To Go.   While this software was not yet available for BB at the time, I was told that this was coming in a few months. So I decided to get by without MS Office temporarily - really meaning only the loss of MS Word and Excel because I knew that the Curve integrated well with MS Outlook.
But what I didn't expect was to still be waiting 15 months later!
As I say, I've been very happy with my Curve and Dataviz did in fact come out with the BB platform support a few months ago. However, the issue remaining is that this software requires me to upgrade to at least v4.5 BB Desktop (I'm running 4.3 now) and to upgrade to Curve firmware version 2.5 (I'm running firmware v2.4.2 now).
I was in contact with AT&T "support" again today and I'm still being stonewalled. The trouble is AT&T only supports the software versions I'm running now and apparently have no plans to support anything newer.
Obviously there are no worries about running desktop v4.5, but I have two specific questions about the v2.5 firmware:
1. Can I upgrade the firmware to 2.5 and still safely receive AT&T voice and BIS data services? I guess what I'm really asking is whether there are compatiability issues I shold be aware of???
2. If I find later that have any issues, or AT&T arrests me (kidding, sort of) can I safely downgrade back to firmware v2.2.4?
I don't care a wit about whether AT&T offically supports these O/S versions. There little of that expected or needed anyway. What I'm asking is "will it work technically or is AT&T doing something funky on their network with file transfer protocols, etc.?"
Any feedback here will be much appreciated!

Error message WMC604 in VZAM when trying to connect to 4G using Novatel USB551L.

VZAM recognizes the modem, and attempts to connect to 4G. After about 10 seconds, a message appears,"Error WMC604, Device could not establish a connection". (I have no problem connecting to 3G, just 4G)
One clue: If I have "Control Panel>Network Connections>Novotel 551L open when I try to connect, I can watch (if I am connecting to 3G) the modem aquire an IP address and connect. If I am connecting to 4G, there is no such activity shown on Control Panel>Network Connections>Novatel 551L modem. It just does nothing until the error message appears in VZAM. It's as if VZAM is not communicating with the modem although during this time VZAM displays a message "connecting".
I have created a dial-up connection in Windows 7 according to the Verizon knowledge base article ID=29355 just so I could use 4G, and the modem connects and works just fine. I just wish I get it to connect to 4G using VZAM.
I am using VZAM version v7.6.3.1(2642f) and one of the things that VZ tech support suggested was replace the SIM card, but that didn't make any difference. I am using Dell XPS 8300 desktop running Win 7 Home Premium,SP1 currently, although problem is the same on my Dell 5160 laptop running Win XP, SP3.
Hoping someone here on this board can help. I have spent hours on the phone with Verizon tech support and they say they have never heard of this error, and have no clue how to make it go away. In checking Google, I see that it is in fact a fairly common error in VZAM, but no one seems to know how to fix it......Verizon reps on the board feel free to come to my rescue?
HELP!!!!

Thank you for your reply. I checked Device Manager for conflicts and see none. I opened VZAM and Device Manager>Novatel Modem side-by-side on the screen and attemped to connect to 4G using VZAM while watching Device Manager for conflicts. There were none indicated when the WMC604 error appeared in VZAM. According to Device Manager, my Novatel modem driver is version 1.1.12.0 ; dated 12/8/10. The "update driver" button is grayed out so I don't know how to check for a newer version. This version is the one that came on the VZAM install CD I belive.
Some background about this problem: When I first got this modem and installed the software, it worked as it should. It came up in Global mode and connected to a weak 4G signal that was comming from the Portland OR airport. Because the signal was weak and un-reliable, the modem would constantly shift back to 3G, and then every few minutes back to 4G, over and over. I got tired of putting up with the constant hunting, and, using the diagnostic screen, locked it into EVDO mode until 4G went live in Portland OR in the middle of June. During the time it was in EVDO (3G) mode, I had no problem connecting to 3G using VZAM. When Portland went live, I locked it back to LTE mode, and that was when I discovered the error WMC604 message. This was using my previous computer, a Dell Dimension 4500 desktop, Win XP,SP3, and an external Wilson log-periodic tri-band antenna. Since Portland went live, my current RSSI for 4G runs around -68db, and SINR varies between -9 to -12 db.
I recently got my present computer, a Dell XPS-8300 desktop, Core i7, Win 7 Home Premium, SP1. I did a fresh install of VZAM on this new computer using the CD that came with the USB551L modem and then checked online (using 3G) for VZAM updates. It says I have the latest version. The problem is exactly the same on the new computer as it was on my other 2 computers. That tells me that the problem must lie with the modem firmware or hardware, because the problem follows the modem, no matter what computer it is hooked up to. I even took it back to the Verizon store where I got it and they hooked it up to one of their computers and got the same error message when trying to connect to 4G. 3G worked properly
As I mentioned before, the modem instantly connects to 4G using the Win 7 dial-up connection I created and gives pretty good speeds, about 10MB down and 4-5MB up, according to SpeedCheck.com.
I can use it the way it is, it is just frustrating that it won't work using VZAM.
Thank you for your attention and help,
