    My mom accidentally deleted the contacts folder, is there a way on how to make a new contact folder? To view my contacts, I have to go to search first. Please help

      Hi JRF, from the posts about this phone, you seem to be one of the most experienced one can rely on.
      I just got this phone for my wife yesterday and had the contacts from her former phone moved to this new one (BB 8520) only to realise that when she tries to call a contact on her phone, the number is prefixed by +86 and it doesn't connect.
      Honestly, I'm at a loss as to what the problem might be 'cos mine never came me any problems. Please, I'll appreciate it if you have an idea as to how I can overcome this problem. Thanks

        intheknow, 18 May 2010your very badly miss informed, the 8520 is 3g (3rd generati... moreYou're misinformed as well. 3G means it has higher internet speeds, and some phones can do video calls. 2G is EDGE which is a lower speed for internet, but can still be used for it. EDGE on this device is pretty fast for mobile sites, emails, chats, and other stuff. For larger sites, there are Bolt and Opera Mini browsers that help keep things fast.

            Badddd. At first when I got my phone I was really pumped and it worked for the first 3 months, so I couldn't complain. Camera could've been better but that was listed in specs, so I knew what I was getting. 3 months later, I have a pressure crack. No idea how the hell it got there honestly. 2 days later, my phone starts acting up. When I'm in a phone conversation, during parts of the conversation, the phone would blank out and I wouldn't be able to hear or speak for about 2 minutes and this would happen continuously. BAAADDDD
