Default Post your quick RANDOM STORM questions here

How do I get rid of the keyboard quickly (when I load up facebook and go to the status page, the keyboard pops up) instead of having to press the bb button and go to hide keyboard?

Mine does a similar thing...it vibrates, then rings, vibrates, rings, vibrates, rings, and then voicemail kicks in. I'd like it to vibrate and ring at the same time, not alternating.

You press and hold where you want it to go.

Put you finger on the top of the keyboard, and drag it to the bottom of the screen. It will close the keyboard without you having to go to the menu. This shortcut should work anywhere the keyboard is displayed...or at least it has so far in my experience.

Press the Send button at the bottom, then click the BB button at the bottom and select VIEW SPEED DIAL LIST. Click on any number and pick which phone u want associated with that number. To make a speed dial, return to the phone pad and press and hold a number.
