Using Blackberry Messenger with 2 Sims

A friend has a Blackberry 8520 Curve on 02 Pay Monthly and is able to use Blackberry Messenger fine, they wanted to use an Orange Pay As You Go Sim and loaded this with credit and purchased the Blackberry Data Bundle on Orange for £5.
The internet now works fine with the Orange Sim, but Blackberry Messenger doesn't appear to work with the Orange Sim. Any idea's why??

what do you mean by "doesn't appear to work"?

ok, I did, and it said again congrats your iPhone is unlocked, but, when it said there was a new carrier update, I cancelled it, but, it asked me again, I cancelled again, I guess I'm scared it will lock it again if I allow the carrier update.
Oh, there it goes again, this time on the phone, arg. I hit update, I hope it doesn't freak out.
I'm glad I didn't destroy the SIM like I almost did. But, it will come out again, longer battery life with the cell portion turned off.

Help !! Using Blackberry Messenger cross-border

Help - I am a UK use of a T-Mobile 8310 GPS and am trying to connect via messenger with a friens who is on a Rogers Telecom BB in Canada. I can add her as a contact, she can send me BB Messenger messages with pics but cannot receive my replies and I cannot initialise conversations.
Any ideas??
I have spoken to my carier and they can't help - she has spoken to Rogers - Ditto !!
There must be a simple solution
Thanks

I would recommend doing this...
1. Both of you delete the other from your BlackBerry Messenger as a contact.
2. Remove any open conversation between the two of you either device
3. Both of you do a full reboot: With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
4. Confirm that neither of you is listed in the other's BBM contact list and that no open conversation remains.
5. One of you add the other back as a contact in BlackBerryMessenger... let the other receive and accept the request.

does this mean that playbook only work on certain blackberry only?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You have the latest software versions.
Try deleting the bluetooth connection between the
2 devices, and reboot both devices.
Try repairing the devices, this worked for me.
Are you doing this as a BES, u may have an IT policy in place
that needs to be removed.

Using Blackberry phone with ipad mini cellular

I have a Blackberry Torch 9810 and want to purchase the mini ipad with cellular.
Can I link between my phone and the ipad so that I can get the internet without lloking for wifi.
I am with Bell.
ChucklefromOttawa

If you are buying the cellular version of the iPad then it already has Internet without Wifi. The cellular version would use the same cellular network your phone uses to connect to the internet. You would of course require a data plan for the cellular iPad though.
I think what you mean is if you have a wifi only ipad can you tether to the blackberry. The answer to that would be yes as long as the black berry has the hotspot option and your cell carrier supports it.

Settings to enable blackberry messenger in ireland

I have an unlocked Blackberry Curve 8320 from Canada and am moving to Dublin and need to go with an Irish mobile phone company. To be able to use Blackberry Messenger in Ireland with an Irish company, I was told I need to change the settings to Irish settings. How do I do this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If the device is already unlocked then all you need is a sim card with a BlackBerry data plan on it. No other modifications are necessary.

Viewing Blackberry messenger group calendars on my MacBook Pro

Help!
Can anyone tell me if it possible to view/sync my blackberry calendar on my MacBook Pro? My work has a shared calendar using blackberry messenger it would be so helpful to be able to view this on my mac.

Hello,
The Email Account Validation Tool may be useful to your situation:
KB33444 How to use the Email Account Validation Tool (EAVT)
Note please that this is intended solely for OTA synchronization between your BB and your server...what happens between your server and your MAC is completely a separate matter. On the other hand, if you truly meant to ask about USB sync via LINK, then that's yet another separate matter.
Good luck!

Blackberry Messenger: Cannot receive message from one contact only

I have been using Blackberry messenger since a few months ago. It has been working fine until 3 weeks ago that it stopped working with only one of my contacts:
I message with my friend every day and out of the blue one day I can't receive any messages from him anymore, and all the messages I send to him would only turn to "d" status even he's read them already (and he'd appear as away on my contact list with a little clock next to the smiley... messages never turn to "R").
My handheld is on a BES and his isn't. I am in the US and he is in Europe. Not sure if that's the reason... but I have other contacts that are either on or not on the same BES and there's no problem with them. He also has contacts that are in the US as well and doesn't have any problem with them either...
We have tried battery pull, shortening name, deleting and re-adding and no luck.
Can any one please help? Thanks!

Welcome Tiramisucat; I have the same problem and a few others share your frustration. There is one BB user who reported today that he finally fixed his problem with the assistance of RIM. You can read about his experience in the following thread BlackBerry Support Community Forums : Smartphones : BlackBerry 8300 Series Smartphone - BlackBerry Curve : Re: PENDING blackberry messenger contact.

Blackberry Messenger e-mail confirmation?

I recieved an e-mail (to both of my e-mail addresses) from Blackberry last night, this is what it read:
"Hello,
Thank you for using BlackBerry Messenger. To help prevent unauthorized use of this email address, we need to confirm its ownership. Please ensure that your BlackBerry is turned on to complete the registration. This email will be automatically processed by BlackBerry Messenger. Please do not delete this email until registration occurs.
If this email is in your Junk mail folder, mark it as "Not Junk". On your BlackBerry Messenger profile screen, click the email address you are trying to register and use the menu key to send the registration again."
How do I do this? **I did not recieve these message on my blackberry....but in my hotmail inbox and school inbox**
Thanks,
Mandy

Same problem, I would like to know how to do this also. I messed up my email setup, so I don't even have the app anymore either.

Strange Text in Blackberry Messenger

Anyone else had this..Started getting strange characters in the text when using Blackberry Messenger.
Totally random...sometimes it will be fine and then it will start randomly changing characters....hard to show here as I can't type them..but as if it is typing foreign characters...
It only happens in messenger.

Fonts are stored in several places, for example:
HD/System/Library/Fonts
HD/Library/Fonts
Home/Library/Fonts
Home/Library/Font Collections
The easiest way to sort them and avoid duplicates etc, is to use Font Book.app which you will find in either your Applications Folder, or in the Utility Folder.

Blackberry Bridge with Proxy

Hi,
I'm using Blackberry Bridge with my Playbook and it works great for email when it's not connected to the Wifi, but when I connect to the corporate Wifi (which uses a proxy) the Bridge tries to use the Wifi for the Messaging (and other) applications. This causes problems as when you try to run the Messaging application you recieve a message similar to this from the corporate proxy server:
Access Denied to http://127.0.0.2:187/messages
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to fix this? It would be nice if the bridge knew to always use the Bluetooth not the Wifi, or if there was an option in the Proxy settings to list exclusions from the proxy.
Thanks,
John

Yep, exact same issue here. I haven't found a work around for this as of yet, I'm also interested if anyone has a solution?
For now, I've been unchecking the 'use HTTP proxy' in wifi setup so I can at least bridge with my BB for mail/calendar and the have limited ability to use the browser to navigate to company internal sites etc (that do not require proxy credential auth). If I need to access the 'outside' with the PB browser, I've been manually editing the proxy server info on the PB. (which subsequently kills the ability to send/rec mail etc) Ugh...
This is definitely not ideal, I'm hoping this is addressed/resolved in upcoming updates. (preferably proxy auto-detect, but bridge simply ignoring the proxy settings would do the trick)

Dear Madam / Sirs,
I would like to seek assistance in resolving an issue with my BLACKBERRY TORCH 9810 I installed the new version of BLACKBERRY MESSENGER on my phone and it does not work on WIFI ONLY MODE.

The same issue occurs on a different BLACKBERRY phone that it was working perfectly...but after updating to the new version of BLACKBERRY MESSENGER it did not work.
Please help me resolve this issue.

Unable to use Curve 8320 with new pay as you go orange sim card

Hey everyone. If someone knows the answer to my dilemma, please help.
My dad just gave me his old Blackberry Curve 8320 Smartphone. He's hardly ever used it and it's been in a draw for a long while, anyway, today I bought an Orange pay-as-you-go sim card for it and having checked the blackberry is all charged up, have now tried it.
No matter what option I pick on (wizard set-up, help, Call Log and all the others), it comes up with on the screen saying:
My number
Then my dad's old number and a six digit number.
I don't know what to do and neither does my dad, so please help and thanks.

Welcome to the forums j9wolf
1. Was the phone previously with Orange? It may be locked to a specific carrier.
2. Can you make calls with the phone even if it shows the wrong number on there?
