Address book, Sending pictures via Email not available

Hi,

I've got everything working thanks to you guys.

When composing a new Email, the address book is not being used (no Auto completion or suggestion).

I would take a picture from the camera but the option to send via Email is greyed out with the account setup via BB.

No HTML Email viewing.

Is it designed to work like that with BB Connect?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] dineshh:
PIN Issue

PIN is provided by GSM service provider. These step enable the BBC software to accept your handset model as compatible for BB services. Its not a hack for working BB without BB activation. Get the BB services activated from GSM operator and u shall have a PIN also.:o

NO PIN

hi there, i have the same problem of not having a pin on my tp2, my carrier says the pin is on the device here is a copy and paste of my carrier web iste when i tried to activate the service

"To find your PIN perform one of the following actions:

* In the BlackBerry device options or settings, click Status.

* Look for the PIN and IMEI information on the outside of the box that your BlackBerry device or BlackBerry-enabled device came in.

* Turn the BlackBerry device off and remove the battery. Look for the sticker on the BlackBerry device with the PIN information where the battery is usually located."

Nice tutorial, patcat007. On my TP2 with a 6.5 ROM my BB Connect work. Anyway, when I change the AKU to .1.6.3, something happens with graphics in my dialer like in the picture attached. Anyone could help to correct this? Thank's!

Thats not a Graphic glitch in WinMo 6.5 ROMS that is what leads you to the call log dont worry enjoy your mail connectivity

Hi,

After 3 days of perfectly working BB cllient, I now have a problem. I don't receive any message anymore.

My BES server is indicating xxxxx ILLEGAL to every message it's trying to send to my HTC. I think it's Orange blocking me somewhere but I don't know how to identify.

Hi

It working fine for me for over a week.

But has anyone tried configuring more than 3 email services. My Vodafone India Delhi, BB customer care says HTC devices cannot configure more than 3 email. Whereas on other devices and otherwise 10 emails can be configured.

Another issue though multiple APN's work,

But SPB insight/ News RSS readers don't get updated at all with GSM Edge/ Wifi. Activesync service even after BBC is functional.

If someone reasons out, please confirm.:o

Hey Dinesh I am too on Vodafone and everything works fine. all updates on all programs happen over GPRS. I can also configure more than 3 email accounts. Have my BB/Gmail/Yahoo and another POP account done. The trick is dont configure Vodafone Mail account. Set it up as a separate account.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] patcat007:
You can use it for the HD 2 havent got it as yet. 40K for a phone is just too much waited till I got the Touch Pro 2 down to 31K then tried this on the TP2. You can try it principally its the same. BB Connect has stopped supporting devices after TOuch Pro, so you need to fool the BB connect into thinking that your HD 2 is a Raphael. Follow the same instructions and let me know if it worked. Will serve as Beta testing before I wait for the prices on the HD 2 to fall.

You might have to Hex Edit the ROM then. You can try this solution provided at the Link below. Its for Hex editing the .nbh file from Rhodium to Raphael. My guess is the same should work for HD2. Search for HTC HD2 and change it to HTC Raphael. Reflash the ROM to your device and then try and install BB Connect. If all else fails wait patiently for one of the Chef's and tweakers to come up with a solution or Trade in for a Rhodium pal. Cheers

I was able to do excatly the same process on my HD which worked. Interested to know why this doesnt work on HD2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mumboender:
When you hex edit you need to use a device id that is exactly the same number of letters...that is why it works for Rhodium and Raphael...and then you change the aku to that device. I assume for the HD2 the device id is LEO so you will have to find a device that works with Blackberry connect that is 3 letters, change it through the hex editor and then change the aku to match that device....

Despite I struggled a bit as a total beginner, BBC works well on my new HTC TP2 now.

Many thanks to Patcat007 and to Eckerbuddyecker for their installation hints.

I had a problem with "SetModelID.exe" as it was blocked by my WM6.5 , but after releasing it for run the model has been changed to Raphael.

Provider: Orange Slovakia

ROM: latest factory ROM: 1.86.401.1 (67102) WWE, date 10/07/09

acu: .1.6.3

BBC: 4.0.0.106

So in the end the change from Nokia E90 to HTC TP2 was a success.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ayr_ray:
Please advice how I can check weather the model Id has changed to Raphel

Please also be a bit more clear on what you meant by

"I had a problem with "SetModelID.exe" as it was blocked by my WM6.5 , but after releasing it for run the model has been changed to Raphael."

What doe the words "releasing it for run" and how do you do it

Please advice in more detail

BBC Connect on HTC HD2

I dont have a HD2 to test it but you can try Hex editing the ROM download the hex Editor from the link given below and follow the instructions. You could try changing the Device ID from HTC HD2 to HTC Elf and see whether BB Connect works on that. May be you could be the beta-tester for this solution. Sorry mate no other help I can provide without a HD2 in my hands to do some tinkering.

You can see the device by tapping:

After softreset a warning appeared that "SetModelID.exe" is an unknown file for WM but just for a fragment of a second and than came the screen for SIM PIN input. The device was not changed.

After next softreset I could release "SetModelID.exe" for use ane device has been changed.

Hi Patcat007, I went through full process, first did a soft reset after setting up SetModeID.exe anf that worked with startup. When I check registry, I also find HTC-Raphael as device ID. I also changed the AKA setting.

However when I look at about in BB, it still reflect Rhodium. Now I am somewhat puzzled. Any help will be apprecaiated.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] patcat007:
Jeff this process works fool proof. Just uninstall the BB Connect software and then install it again. Check whether your Launch130 is the highest value in the registry. If it doesnt work just PM me I will take you through the steps over chat.

When I get to work I will look up some info on BBC. I work for an ATT Call Center. I know I have seen info relating to Windows Mobile features for Blackberry Connect.

i doubt i'm in the right thread... but how do i go about fooling my HTC DIAMOND into thinking its RAPH so i can install "BLACKBERRY APPLICATION SUITE"
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] burninglight13:
there is a feature on ATT called Smartphone Enterprise with Blackberry Connect and CV. This feature allows windows mobile devices to access BES email accounts. The biggest reason I looked this up is so none of you will have to call ATT and tell them you are using a blackberry and give a different IMEI which will yield no results anyway because the PIN is generated off of YOUR IMEI. This feature is $45 for the Bolt-on and $50 for the standalone(means no voice plan required.) This will allow you to generate your pin off of your imei. Not everyone has had confusion on this but I have seen questions asked about it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] asamax:
Hi everybody,

Yesterday my chief announced "trash your rhodium, this blackberry 8900 is your new device. We'll save a lot of money with vodafone in email and data traffic!".

Cried all the night long.

Then I got on xdadev and.. is there a way out? Can I keep using my rhodium exploiting blackberry for emails and internet stuff? This thread seems to say YES.

If so, please someone tell me which limitations shall I expect using those BB tools on my WM-energyrom-rhodium before I get into trying install, compared to the rom usual email and web apps.

I thank you in advance for giving me a way out this nightmare.

EDIT 27/2/2010

I installed BBConnect and (almost) everything seems to work good. I have a BIS (blackberry internet service).

For them who's wondering which limitations BBconnect brings, I report the ones I noticed, hoping someone help me removing'em (I could'nt find any solutions in forums):

1) BB email account shows emails in a poor way, compared to the standard email accounts. But not so bad.

2) Opening attachments in an incoming email you get a strange behaviour. Open a pdf and you can see only the text. No format, no tables. It seems the file's perfect but the viewer's a light version of the pdf reader. I couldn't find a way to save attachments, and open them with the installed wm software.

3) BB emails have strict limitations for attachments weight. Outgoing emails cannot bring attachments larger then 32K (!!!).

4) BIGGEST issue for me: Installing BBconnect doesn't route your data traffic through BB connection. It works just for the BB email account. This means that you cannot exploit the blackberry data plan and, maybe, pay more money everytime you surf the web. If I could route data traffic through BB connection (at least internet browsing) I could say BBconnect is the solution. At the moment I have to go through my Vodafone web GPRS and my company is not going to bear it anymore.

Comment please
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] patcat007:
That my friend is the limitation of BB COnnect. The BB is basically a dumb device. With Push mail available in so many options ppl are gonna switch to other faster more AIO devices. I predict a swift demise of both RIM which makes Blackberry and Lotus Notes.

Dunno why IT chiefs prefer it though??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] asamax:
Thx patcat007,

you saved me from spending all my freetime finding solutions that actually do not exist.

I think the only reason I'll have to repack my rhodium forever and turn to BB is a too quick answer to a too quick question:

- how could we save money in mail/internet with our devices?

- well, we've got a very interesting all-inclusive flat pack. We'll give you BB devices, a BIS, and you'll have no more surprises.

I read about BB applications suite, a maybe. Maybe one day I'll be able to come back.

Good Bye!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Hi All,

I have a Touch Diamond 2 (Topaz). I have BBConnect working, but there are some things I would like to change:

I use Cornholio's SetModelID program. However, because my company email have strict security on them, the Blackberry lock program starts BEFORE the SetModelID program after a re-boot. Therefore, after a re-boot, I need to unlock the Blackberry lock, stop Service, log and security, then run SetModelID, then re-start Blackberry service, log and security, unlock and then "Register Now" on the Utility tab of Blackberry Settings. This then gives me one or two new emails in the System folder which I then delete. I do this whole process with a mortscript, but it takes a long time to do and sometimes the process does not fully complete all by itself.

I would rather use the http://www.silentservices.de/HexEdit-ROM-for-BBC.html, but HTC-Topaz has fewer letters than HTC-Raphael. I have tried to change "Topaz" to Sedna, Dopod, Touch, and just about any other HTC device with 5 letters but cannot get it to work. Can anyone suggest how to either (1) make the SetModelID permanent so it is not required after a re-boot or (2) somehow change my preferred Topaz rom to turn it into a Raphael?

I hope someone can help me.

By the way, if anyone wants a mortscript to do all this, please let me know.

Hi!

I have been using BB connect for the last two years with my Elf. I can browse the web using the Blackberry Browser and therefore using the BB connection. It is true you can not use Opera or Skyfire browsers just the default Windos Mobile internet browser but that is OK for me.

Give it a try.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Vintila:
Hi mitsi!

May I ask which device name/ BB connect version / AKU have you used to enable BB connect on your Diamond2?. I have now a HCT Touch2 (Mega) and BB connect is not working out of the box. I have been using BB connect on my Elfin for two years successfully.

By the way, once I get it to work I will be in the same situation as you as my company has enabled the BB Password IT Policy. It is really a pain to unlock the device every time I want to use it, as the Elfin has not keyboard I have to use the stylus to unlock it.

Thanks a lot.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Hi Vintila,

I have used the Topaz SetModelId program from Gnick. Therefore, my device name was "HTC-Topaz" and now it is "HTC-Raphael". I am using BBConnect version 106 with an AKU of .1.6.3.

What is your device name according to the BBSettings\About tab without using any SetModelId?

The security policy will mean you not only have to use your stylus, but also the other steps unless you install the mortscript program which automates the steps needed. One thing I can add with the stylus is that I have installed Finger Keyboard. This includes shortcut keys, so I have a shortcut key which is my Blackberry security password, so I can unlock it without a stylus, just by pressing one key.... :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Vintila:
Mitsis,

Thanks a lot for your prompt response!

> I have used the Topaz SetModelId program from Gnick

Do you mean I need a custom SetModeId for my Mega?. If so, who can build it?

> What is your device name according to the BBSettings\About tab without using any SetModelId?

I have the Mega at home but I remember it was not HTC-Touch2 either HTC-Mega, I will check tonight and post here

Quite interesting your comments about unlocking the device with mortscript and fingerprint, if you don't mind once I get the BB connect to work in my new Mega I will ask for your help.

Best regards
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Vintila:
Can you use Opera using the BB connection :eek:?

Why can't you use the Blackberry Browser?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Hi Vintila,

I don't know who can build the SetModelId for your phone, or if you do need to have it at all. You could ask Cornholio or Gnick. Cornholio was the original person to have discovered this hack and Gnick amended it for the Topaz. I certainly take my hat off to them! You could try to use the Rhodium one though - it may work.

I would be glad to help with your mortscript. Here is mine:

The attached zip file contains the other programs you will need:

(1) Enable BBCTopaz - although you will not use this because this is the SetModelId program.

(2) BBReloaded - this program contains a screen which stops the service, security, log, installs the SetModelId, re-starts the service after the SetModelId has run etc.

(3) BBStopSecurity - this is the final program to be run in the mortscript which means you will not have to keep unlocking your phone because of the Blackberry Security. You could omit this if you want to keep your phone secure!

(4) SendRecieveAll - this program will make sure that the silly email that arrives in your system folder and shows on your notifications is automatically deleted by the mortscript.

(5) BBReload1 - this is the mortscript program detailed in the text above which automatically runs the other 4 programs. You will need to put a shortcut to this in your Windows\startup folder. Then, following a re-boot, you will have to firstly input your security and then the mortscript will do the rest..... By the way, you can see the line "SendKeys( "pppl" )". You should replace the text "pppl" with "whateveryourpasswordonblackberryis". One thing to note is that the Mouseclicks are all based on WVGA screen as that is what my TD2 is.

Good luck
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
You're right. When I use Opera, it goes through "Mobile Web" from O2 instead of the Blackberry connection. When I try to use the Blackberry Browser, I get the error message "The internet connection is currently in use by the Blackberry browser. Would you like to temporarily disable Blackberry browsing?". When I press "Yes", I just get the screen "The page cannot be displayed".

As I say, I don't mind because I don't want/need to use the Blackberry browser. I use Opera direct from TouchFlo.
