Please forgive me if this was already addressed at some other point. I searched, but could not find the answers I needed. I found the BlackBerry Connect software (after a while on the forums) and installed it on my BA. The software runs, generates a PIN, etc...
Right now, I do not have BB service on my plan, and I am wondering - will this client only work on BB Exchange Connector, or will BB Web Connect work also? I want to make sure I get the service that best suits my needs...
If a PIN is generated w/o sync, do I still need to sync it w/ BB software on a Win PC? I use *nix and that would be inconvinent to say the least...
Also... How the hell do you uninstall BB software if you decide not to use it? There is no entry in the remove programs app...
Thanks!
Does anybody have any practical experience with this peice of software for other than BES connectivity?
Does anybody know if this can be used for PIN messages or other Blackberry push services?
BB Connect with TMO Dash - repost in the correct forum
Hi All,
I am trying to replace my company issued BB 7520 (Nextel) with a T-mobile Dash. (my personal cell)
-I have downloaded the BB Connect Cab file to the Dash and installed. Ver2.1.2.39
-I have downloaded the BB Connect for Windows Mobileto my desktop and synched the Dash ver 2.1.1.9.
- I synched my Dash, it recognized the new PIN and I created a new encryption key
- I have called Tmo and had them add the BB service to my account.
The Dash is connecting to the TMO BB Network. The identity, Status Services and IT Policy all look OK.
However, I cannot send or receive emails, and my calender is not synching. I have turned off Calender synch in Activesynch. I don't have Activesynch synching anything.
Am I missing something? When I run the BB Connect Desktop for Windows Mobile, I only get panel that looks like the redirector settings on the BB Desktop Manager.
Do I need to run the Desktop Manager when I run the BB Connect for WM?
Thanks in Advance
James
I haven't been able to get BB Connect on my Excaibur afterthe first restart of the device. It does work though if I deselect the radio button for wireless PIM. Anyone know why this (I think the BBconnect service is CICAL) is preventing BBConnect from working?
Help, I am lost now.. I had BB Connect work on my Dash, then I flashed the ROM. I have BB installed and I can receive all my emails no problem, but I can't create new or reply to emails the action is greyed out. Since this is the only way I can email I really need to get this working.
Please help!!
Thanks
I fixed it, I just had to send a service book to my phone and everything works now..
"Tmobile" Dash and BB Connect Problems Please help
I have bb connect (smartphone edition) on my dash with the blackberry plan on my account.
It works great alot better then the trigger system !
I have a issue with the internet not working properly it is really slow I have to suspend the bb connect to get it to work normal ( pain in the butt )
And also my mms messages come in as a text that directs me to a web link as instead of downloading the pictures
Any help I know a couple other people posted this issue but there was no fix
Please help Thanks
****UPDATE*****
Fixed the mms messages not coming in.
The problem was I selected the blackberry 8100 on my tmobile account so I can add the blackberry and set it up. Once I switched it to the dash. The picture messages come in just fine.
Any one out there that can help with the slow internet problem ?
Was the slow Internet problem ever figured out? I installed BB Connect 4.0 and im noticing the same problem too.
disable the bb connect when ur using the internet through status in the bb connect menu...and when u finished surfing just enable it again( disabling it is not closing it...its just suspends until ur ready to use again)
Blackberry Connect using BIS (not BES) on WM6, possible?
I am using a Rogers S621 Excalibur (Carrier, CID, & App unlocked).
On my phone I am running WM6 standard 5.2.1238 (Russian ROM)
On my computer I am running Vista.
I do have a BB Connect data plan on my account.
I have installed the BB Connect software seen here:
http://www.sems.org/entry.asp?ENTRY_ID=228
and here: http://www.sems.org/entry.asp?ENTRY_ID=225
If I try to run the Blackberry Connect Desktop for Windows Mobile it begins to start up and then says "The account is not provisioned properly on the server" and then shuts down. I don't think that is an issue as I believe the desktop client is only for BES.
On my phone when I try to select the BB Connect app and select Register now it says:
Blackberry: Not Connected
Blackberry: Network Available
Blackberry: Data Tunnel Available
Blackberry: Not connected
On the BIS (www.rogers.com/bis) when I select "Change Device" and then enter my PIN & IMEI (found on my phone by selecting Blackberry>Settings>Identity ) it says: "The information you have provided could not be verified. Please check your information and try again".
On my phone when I select Start>Blackberry>Settings>Email Settings it says "Email settings unavailable".
What have I done wrong, or what can I try?

What carrier are you on? Rogers?
BES? or BIS?
does this means you are confirming that your S621 is indeed CID & APP unlocked ?? and this is a "software" issue ??
I was starting to get confused with other posts of yours going back & forth not knowing yes or no

What are you talking about? When was I "going back & forth"?
And why are you rolling your eyes at me?
And wasn't it a "software" issue the whole time? It certainly wasn't a hardware issue.

How did you know that the service book transfered to your handset? I did the same but there were no new service books.
BB Connect 4 and WM6
I've just installed BlackBerry Connect 4.0 on my T-Mobile Dash with WM6. It works like a charm...!!!.
Regards.

Hi, in order for the BB connect to work on the Dash you have to have the BB data plan through your carrier. After you install the cab, go to your website where you can manage your device, pick a blackberry as your current device and then you can send the service books. You can also call your company and ask them to send the, just tell em your using a pearl or something. ANy way after that make sure you update the pin and then your good to go. Oh by the way the current US smartphones cant multitask APN's so you will not be able to access the blackberry.net apn for mail and the wap apn for internet at the same time. In order to use the internet you must suspend the bb connect software. I have a .cab for for smartphones which works if you want one. It was designed for the dash, excalibur, etc. It works great.

I am using 2.1.2.39 and I can get the software running, where I seem to have the problem is with the service books. TMO has another PIN and IMIE number and will not let me change it.
I can send a new service book but they are not showing up on the handset.
BB Connect 4.0 not working on WM6
Hi there,
I have my HTC S621 from Rogers with Blackberry plan and recently upgraded to WM6. When loaded with BBC 4.0. It will not connect (works well under WM5). I have seen some ppl say it works and some ppl say it does not work.
Not sure if there is a way to fix it ?
Here is the info of my HTC:
ROM: 1.27.405.1
WM6 CEOS: 5.2.1238 (build 17745.0.2.3)
radio : 4.1.13.44_02.94.90
Thx.
BB Connect question: Is it possible to change (or get a different) PIN?
Long story short, my BIS won't accept my PIN and tech support has no idea why, so changing my PIN or getting a new phone seem to be my only options.
I have installed the Faria ROM on my Hermes and I can tell I am quite happy with it. Only thing I can't get to work is to use my Hermes with my AUDI built in handsfree carkit. I am able to get connected with it and I am also able to do phone calls, only thing is that there is no access to my phonebook, I also have tried to set the bluetooth to allow remot sim access, but still doesn't work. Does anybody know if there is a nweer bluetooth driver out there? Will be happy for any suggestion.
Thanks
Duke
I have Chryslers U-Connect and it accesses my phonebook I put into U-Connect. when connected , I have never been able to access my phonebook from my phone.
@pumpiron, sorry for the silly question, but what is U-connect and where would I get that from?
It comes with Chrysler Products. Check it out...http://www.jeep.com/crossbrand/uconnect/jeep/interface.html
Sorry to bring up this oldie, but I am now having this issue when trying to connect my bluetooth to my Kenwood radio. Downloading is extremely slow. These are the things I used to be able to do before I flash my Hermes with a new WinMo 6.5 ROM:
1. Dial a number through the radio. I now have to dial from the phone.
2. Calls log is not being downloaded. The only thing that shows up is the contacts list.
3. Simultaneous actions. Before the flash I used to be able to dial a number while information was being taken from the phone to the radio. This is no longer the case. I have to wait until info is downloaded before being able to make a call. This also prevents me from answering incoming calls.
Is there anyway to check what version of bluetooth (if any) is on the phone or if there's some type of upgrade?
Appreciate any help.
Can anybody help me out? I cant seem to send and files over bluetooth with dash to other cell phones.
Make sure both devices have their bluetooth on and the reciepient must have the device visible.
you kno that option "beam".. thats how u send files
What do you guys do about Passkeys? I was trying to send a contact to my gf's phone via bluetooth, and both phones asked for passkeys to connect with each other.

Well the sender puts in a pass key and the reciever puts the same pass key, the same as if you was to pair a device.
Hi, I, plus many others, would like a VOIP solution that works.
I know some say there is a VOIP that is built into many ROMs but I have had about 10 devices, starting with the XDAII that I have never gotten to work here in the USA.
Yes, I have tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299950 and the gOD Shaun33 SipConfigTool_2_0_1.CAB and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=574521... And many hours of searching...
I would install SipConfigTool_2_0_1.CAB & WM6VoIP.CAB & even SecondToday.CAB on roms with different Today skins.. (Touch Flow or whatever)...
On all roms, the today plug in "Internet calling" would not show.
I think the verizon and sprint must have sabotaged the possibility of VOIP or something.
I also have read that when people did get it to work, it would not work with their BT headsets and OR would produce sound out of the speakerphone and not the normal speaker.
Here is what I want.
I want the ability to switch between regular cell calls and VOIP.
A simple file edit or GUI like the gOD Shaun33 SipConfigTool_2_0_1.CAB
Can be switched from VOIP over WIFI or VOIP over reg cell data or reg cell phone via a button or a Today plug in..
To be able to use my Blue tooth headset.
Not use a third party app,, just the default - built in phone dialer so the ringing and other stuff.
NOR a third party app that does not slow things down, activate your WIFI.. (like fring) and that wakes your phone up for a call, yet allows it to sleep to save on battery life.
Hell everyone is doing VOIP now days, especially with the Windows based VOIP server that will even run on Windows XP. www.3CX.com .... Its free.. We use it at my business with a laptop or desktop and the 3CX softphone. To make it the best thing ever, we use a BUA-100 Plantronics BT USB device and a www.JAWBONE.com and the quality is the best thing out there and you can answer and hang up by a click on the side of the BT headset, just like your cell phone, so you can keep your hands free and not have to sit by your computer.
Asterisk is another.
Now to put that coolness into a cell phone that would go out over the hi speed wireless or WIFI, THAT would be the FRICKEN COOLEST!
I would pay $150 and I think there is MANY people who will donate money too.
