    Hi, I have a BB9530, unlocked Verizon version. All of a sudden the whole screen turns white showing JUM Error 529 messagge. After pulling the battery and rebooting the phone for 2 or 3 times it works again. Then a day later same thing happens. Anybody has a clue how to solve it or whay could be causing it?

    Second question. Does anybody know how ta change the phone number stored as *611 ? That's the local customer service number from my local provider, but since it's a Verizon phone it directs me to Verizon's customer service.

    Thanks,

    Diego

        i checked the BB 9530 today at the croma store, its really pathetic.
        it takes so long to type, you have to hit the screen to type the alphabet (i mean literally!)
        and having used samsung touchscreens, i was pretty disappointed with the berry :(
        the text keys in both portrait and landscape mode are place in a very scary manner...
        i went to buy the phone, but its not worth it...
        i'll be checking the storm2 tomorrow, hope that is good; lest i'll settle with HTC

                      in my contacts i have someone added and there phone number is saved with only the 04 at the begining..

                      but when i recieve a text message from this person it doesnt come up with their name only their number..

                      so to change this i go to edit in contacts and change the number so it has +61 at the begining taking away the 0.. so now in messages it displays their name..

                      but then when i get a phone call from that person it wont come up with their name anymore because i changed the number to have +61 at the start.

                      why is this happening? can i change this?

                      i have never had this problem on any of my other mobile phones.

                      PLEASE HELP! it is very fustrating and i dont want to go through all my contacts edit them and put their number in twice one with 04 and another with +61 at the start!! just so their name will come up when they call me and when i get a message from them.

As far as the problem wth the 'Vodafone' wallpaper is concernd, try formattin ur device as it may solve the issue. Also try changing the wallpaper to something more pleasant lik nature, abstract or hot babes, jus kidding:-)

                                        Rohit, 05 Mar 2010Hey superman,i bought a locked BB9530 from US,provider was ... moreHey Rohit, sorry for not bng able to revert to ur query in time, was a bit bz wth stuff, ne ways, im back in action and here are the steps u can follow to fix the issues u've been facin wth ur BB Storm:
                                        Problem 1: Unable to Recieve Calls.
                                        Fix: Format ur handset aftr backin up ur data. once done, dial ##000000 and set ur phone numbr as 'My Number' and hit save and let ur fone reboot.
                                        Once fone starts up, press the call key, select 'options', go to 'Smart Dialing' and put +91 as ur country code and area code shud be 10 and press 'Save'. Restart ur device and be rest assured that the issue wont persist.

                                        Problem 2: help with BB messenger.
                                        Fix: Speak to ur service provider and activate the basic BB services (Vodafone charges rs. 299/- per month and Docomo charges rs. 599/- per month, i donno about other providers). Go to the BB messenger icon and send a request to the person using a bb and once they accept it, you can chat wth he/she unlimited widout any additional charge.

                                        Problem 3: Unable to recieve files via bluetooth from other handsets.
                                        Fix: Follow these steps to combat this known issue Rohit:-
                                        1 -turn on the bluetooth on both the devices
                                        (if u hav the other device as a nokia mobile better keep the blackberry in its paired list)
                                        through blackberry, search for the other device from which u want to recieve data.
                                        2- if all works fine, then both the devices are connected.
                                        3-if its a document file u want to recieve, open the document viewer or any of the media options
                                        open the options through options button(the one with blackberry's b sign)
                                        and select recieve file.
                                        from the other device send the data to the blackberry and it will start recieving it
                                        note- maximum distance for bluetooth transfer is 10 metres
                                        better keep the both devices near with u to hav a check on both.

                                        Rohit, try these steps out and bid gudbye to all ur worries. BB storm is a gr8 handset and with internet, u hav a whole new verizon to discover. visit http://in.blackberry.com/ to check for free and paid apps for ur device. Plz post ur response if things work out well and if anything still needs attention, lemme know buddy. Cheers..
