    Thanks, this has been suggested before. When I do this it brings up a new email message, NOT a new SMS message.

    Maybe you have a separate SMS inbox, or don't have your email in Messages...
    I use the Messages inbox to show email, SMS, and BBM.
    (I have my separated email & SMS inbox Icons hidden.)
    Having seperate inboxs will fix that. But you can also have your left convenience key set to "compose". That's what I have it as and it's very efficient.

    Here's something cool not mentioned:

    In any typing field (I.e. Email, SMS, BBM, etc) try typing "mypin" or "mynumber" or "myver" and see what happens after you press Space or Enter...

    It's insane how much stuff RIM hides in these things!

    Don't forget the all important
    alt-right shift-del to force a reboot of the phone. I almost never do an actual battery pull.
    Thanks I can delete quickpull lite, or is there another purpose to that app?

    I didn't know about number lock until today. Glad I found it too cuz holding down alt and pressing some of those numbers right next to the alt key is kinda difficult.

    Surprised nobody has mentioned this:

    Options -> Status

    Type "buyr"

    It will show data usage and voice call usage since last boot and also if you are under an IT Policy.

    It doesnt bring up true address book, clicking on a contact will call them instead of viewing contact details.

    heres one, while in sms inbox press "m" to get to your email messages.
    Also if you hit alt "s" it will take you to sms and alt "m" to mms in any message window

    Some other helpful Tips
    In almost all apps - To close use BB MENU - C - Enter
    Some apps such as Google Maps use "Exit" not Close so repeat same except instead of 'C' use 'E.'

    Hope this is helpful.

    Yes and ALT + P in Messages opens a similar log of all phone calls.

    A couple mistakes. I think you must have taken this from a previous generation devices.

    Z toggles between Column & Page View.
    L gives you Link info (much like P for your current page); however, you must have the cursor on the link.

    ESC and DEL will both go back one webpage. I prefer DEL as ESC can accidentally close the Browser if you mistakenly hold it for too long instead of just clicking it.

    Plus like with many Apps, SPACE is Page Down and SHIFT+SPACE is Page Up.

    Better to use L instead of R for replies. L is Reply-All.

    Don't be one those bad BlackBerry emailers that always cuts everyone else out of an email thread!

    Also, SPACE is Page Down (as per my last post re Browser too).

    N & P go to the Next or Previous date.
    U toggles between Unread messages.
    ALT+U marks a message read or unread.
    S is Search and V is for your Saved messages.

    Yes, QuickPull Lite gives the option of setting a daily QuickPull at the same time. (Like 4am while it's just sitting there charging for most of us.)

    For a quick shortcut to find your pin number or to send it to someone:

    When sending a message (I believe any kind. I tried sms, bbm, and email)
    Type: my$pin (without the money sign, no space between my and pin)

    After you type the "n" in pin press space and it auto changes

    In Phone Options under Voice Mail, you can add your vm password.
    TIP: Add a # at end of your password to speed it up.
    Pls clarify where I would find this option on my Tour? I've checked all the categories under OPTIONS icon but can't find. This would be great if I didn't have to press pw numbers to check voicemail while driving!

    EDIT: Neverrrrrr miiiiiind!! LOL Found it. (smacking forehead with open right hand - DUH!)

    Yes it's not in the Options App, but in Phone.
    For any others confused:
    -press SEND (the green phone button),
    -press MENU (the BB button to left of trackball),
    -press O to skip to Options,
    -press the BB button or ENTER or trackball to select,
    -scroll one down to Voicemail and click,
    -type in your password!
    -TIP: add a # at end of password (faster for most carriers)

    Anyway, glad you figured it out. I just hope you were holding your Tour in your LEFT hand when you smacked your forehead!

    Press the $ key during a call to activate the speaker phone. It has a red speaker symbol above it.
