Never mind. If you create a separate contact for the direct connects it works.

hello there fellow bb fam. man I am a very, very, new to this world, so I appreciate all and every bit of help!! I have been flashing my nextel bb to work with my boost service and running into a prob... I have been working at this from this site for a couple of days now and I'm having some success but, the mian problem that I'm having is on my device the signal icon that would normally show you how strong or week your conn. is, just says "off" and it seems that no matter what I do or update nothing changes that! Is this a user error? (which I wouldn't be surprised... 8P )or am I just missing something?... i appreciate any and all suggestion

I am not sure what you have or have not done. But I will tell you from expereince and with the help from the guys on here I have a working Boostberry. With detailed instructions from this forum I did everything and in the end I had to do a complete phone and radio wipe, then I started from the beginning and went to the end. Bingo everything works !!!! Good luck ! Details on how to wipe your phone and radio are listed on this forum.

Hello everyone!! Here I am with the best deal out there $50.00 and a Blackberry trying to figure out all the ins n outs. I will read the whole thing and take it from there.

[ortodoxa]

OK, great info!! THANK YOU!! However I opened an account with gmail, I got the notifications of email received but 4 hours later!! Question?

Will this only work if I am in a WIFI place or anywhere?

If I want to write an email from my BB, can I do it right from contacts or it won't link it to gmail? Meaning, must I go to gmail application to write an email?


Also, correct me if I am wrong, the only way to get Yahoo forwarded to my Gmail is by paying yahoo plus right?

Thanx in advance!

[Fltim]

I try that and it's not letting me and also I try to call and talk to a rep and they saying it's not taking it because it's a nextel phone not boost.

Same problem here and to wait for support is like waiting for the cable company. "You wait there. And we will try to get to your issue sometime...."

its a bit of a late comment but do you have to have the 50 unlimited plan, or is it also possible with the pay as you go plan

I have been using my boostberry 8350i for about a year now... but a strange thing happened the other day and I cannot seem to get it fixed.

It was almost as if the Boost network stopped recognizing the phone. The SIM card works... I have it in another phone now and the phone receives calls fine. The Boostberry just won't receive any calls... won't pick them up at all. I tried reloading the service books, and doing a hard restart on the phone... all of that did not work.

Any ideas on what to do?

sos means no signal, have you moved around? do a battery pull.

also goto "manage connections" and confirm mobile network is ON.

good luck

Have done this to 4 phones, works great except on one, I send a text and it shows an X (not sent) any ideas. All the settings seem the same.

I know with mini opera you can go to Facebook and I've seen Myspace as well. I use mini opera to check my yahoo emails.

I downloaded Facebook 6.1 because 7.1 won't work and is almost the same. Type facebook 6.1 on your search in these forums because I forgot where I found it.

You have to do this again.

On your device, go to Options -> Advanced Options -> Service Books hold Alt and hit {S}{B}{E}{B} let go of alt and it should show a message about how legacy service books are enabled.


WRITE NEW SERVICE BOOKS TO DEVICE

a) First, clear your service books by scrolling down on the right side, high light Service Books, then press Clear

b) Check your device now (Options -> Advance Options -> Service Books)

i) If there is anything left besides something that mentions TCP/IP or Browser, delete those also

c) Open BB DM, go to Backup/Restore -> Advanced -> Left Window -> File -> Open -> select the service book file you downloaded, then the >> button to move it over. A pop-up will ask if you want to over-write. Say "Yes."

d) Disconnect phone from Computer.

e) Go to Options -> Advanced Options -> Host Routing Table -> BB Menu key -> Register
