u can get the blacked out curve by buying a new housing for the phone. im about to black it out and make the trackball neon green or red (you have to puttransparent colored film over the light on the inside of the phone)

Finally received my $100 rebate from my blackberry bold. I hate that it's on a visa card. Is there anyway to get a physical $100 bill instead of this? Oreven transfers the funds from this card to my Debit Card? Anyone ever tried?

Any way to change the Text notification sound for my Curve?


I could've sworn I came across it before and now I just can't seem to find that option.

I know this has probably been asked before but my blackberry curve keeps on deleting all my texts and my call logs. Is there anything I can do to stop it?
I have tried deleting pics and ring tones but it doesn't help. Any advice would be appreciated.

all the firmware is phone specific so no its not possible but if your looking for the look that the 8900 and the bold screen has try to search for"precision theme (insert your phone model number)"

That usually happens when you're running low on memory. Save the texts you need and begin deleting the rest.

it's the infamous BlackBerry memory leak.

pull the battery. it'll stop.

just make sure you turn off, and pull the batter out preiodically, and it won't happen again.

My black berry won't turn on, is this a common issue?

 

[datruth92803]

does anyone out there have any videos for changing the housing on the 8320 or know how who could give me a run down

I just got a Curve last week and I had the same problem.

Instead of going directly to niketalk.com, Google "NikeTalk Sports" or what have you and the links should be clickable.


try niketalk.yuku.com

What does the new OS do? I'm on verizon and split between a storm or waiting for the niagara.

KLJ, DL operamini.

(Operamini.com)

It's a lot better than the stock BB browswer, IMO.

Opera Mini -> Mobile view is all you need

Improves the accelerometer, makes the browser much faster, typing more efficient, improves the radio, copy/paste is easier to perform... Justoverall a different phone than the phone that was released back in November and the latter months after. Currently, the official OS is .113, but .122 wasreleased for Bell users... The guys over at crackberry figured out how to integrate .122 for Verizon users..

 

[urbenyouth]

Oh wow. Typing is more efficient? Really? Maybe I'll just get the storm then. Are you happy with it?

4 gigs is good, i only use 2 and its still got a lot of room to spare

you can put on music two ways.
a. just copy and paste the music files from your computer to the memory card and plug it in to the phone
or
b. plug the phone in to the computer and turn on mass storage mode, then copy and paste the files in to the music file in your blackberry (mass storage modeturns the blackberry in to a disk drive)

other stuff
-download themes here
-Download Blackberry App World

And make ringtones via Itunes for free

I LOVE it, but I'll will say this.... Touchscreen isn't for everyone! It's either Love or Hate with it. I would test it out first...
