About A-GPS support
Depending on your handheld version or service
provider, your handheld might be enabled with
Assisted Global Positioning System (A-GPS)
support.
If your handheld is enabled with A-GPS support,
when you make an emergency call from your
handheld, or during Emergency Callback Mode, an
emergency operator can estimate your
approximate location (subject to A-GPS
limitations). In the handheld options, click
Location Based Services, and set GPS Services to
911 Only/Location Off.
To allow an operator to estimate to your
approximate location at other times (subject to A-
GPS limitations) set GPS Services to Location On.
Warning:
In an emergency, always provide detailed
information about your location to the emergency
operator. Because of certain limitations in A-GPS
technology and emergency infrastructure, the
emergency operator might not be able to estimate
your location using only A-GPS information.

messages are sent immediately, so you cannot
stop the message from being sent.
Why are some messages already on
my handheld?
When you first receive your handheld and every
time that you update the software, several
welcome messages appear. These messages
provide information and tips for using the
handheld.
If your handheld is integrated with an email

The handheld automatically recognizes most
items as links. To create a link for a PIN, type pin:

that you file on your handheld are also filed in
your mailbox.
If your handheld is not enabled for wireless email
reconciliation, your handheld must be integrated
with an email account using the BlackBerry
Desktop Redirector or BlackBerry Enterprise Server
to file messages. You must perform an initial email
reconciliation with the BlackBerry Desktop
Software so that the folders in your mailbox
appear on your handheld. For more information
on configuring manual email reconciliation, refer
to the
BlackBerry Desktop Software Online Help
.
Why can’t I see a new message in the
messages list even though I received
notification?
If email messages are sent to your handheld from
specific mailbox folders and, in the general
messages options, you set the Hide Filed
Messages option to Yes, a new message sent to
your handheld is filed automatically, and it might
not appear in the messages list. To view all of your
messages, set the Hide Filed Messages field to No.
Why is there a different icon beside
some items in the messages list?
Different icons are used in the messages list to
indicate various items, such as message status,
saved web pages, call logs, and email messages
with attachments.
When you make or receive a call, the handheld
creates a call log containing information about
the call. To disable call logs, in the phone options,
click Call Logging. Set the Show Logs in Message
List field to No.
How do I show more of a subject line
for my email and PIN messages?

or recipient of the message. In the messages
options, click General Options. Set the Display
Time and Display Name fields to No.

deletes the oldest messages from the messages
list to accommodate new ones. It will not delete
saved messages.
84
If you have enabled wireless email reconciliation,
messages that you delete in your mailbox are also
deleted on your handheld. Messages that you
delete on your handheld are also deleted in your
mailbox.
If you deleted multiple messages using Delete
Prior, the messages are only deleted from your
handheld.
How do I change how long messages
remain in the messages list?
To change the number of days your handheld will
keep messages on the messages list, in the
message options, click General Options. Set the
Keep Messages field.
Messages sent to your handheld that are older
than the number of days that you specify in the
Keep Messages field are removed from your
handheld. The messages can be restored, however,
if you set the Keep Messages field to a longer
period of time. When you increase the amount of
time in this field, any messages sent to your
handheld during that period of time appear in the
messages list.
How do I restrict the types of email
messages that are sent to my
handheld?
You can create email filters to send only specific
email messages to your handheld. For more
information, see:
“Create an email filter”.
To stop messages that do not meet any filter
criteria from being sent to your handheld, in the
message options, click Email Filters. Set the If no
filters apply, send email to handheld field to No.
How do I create a generic filter?
To create a generic filter, use wildcards when
specifying the contacts to which the filter applies.
In the From field, specify part of the sender's
address and use an asterisk (*) in place of the
remaining part.
Why are some messages sent to my
handheld even though I have created
a filter?
A filter must be enabled before it applies to your
messages. In the email filters messages options,
verify that the check boxes beside all of the filters
that you want to apply to your messages are
enabled. Verify that the filters are in the correct
order so they can be applied to your messages
properly.
Why can’t I specify some folders
from which email messages are
redirected?
On the Folder Redirection screen, if the check
boxes beside the folder names appear with broken
borders, those folders are not enabled for
redirection. If your handheld is integrated with an
email account using the BlackBerry Enterprise
Server version 4.0, the folders are enabled
automatically after a short period of time. To
manually enable all folders for redirection, on the
Email Reconciliation screen, set the Wireless
Reconcile field to Off. Save your changes. Open
the Email Reconciliation screen again and set the
Wireless Reconcile field to On. Save your changes.
How do I make changes to the
folders on my handheld?
You cannot add, edit, or delete folders from your
handheld. To add, edit, or delete the folder,
change it in your mailbox and reconcile your email
with your handheld.
85
If your handheld is enabled for wireless email
reconciliation, changes that you make to the
folders in your mailbox are synchronized with your
handheld over the wireless network.
If your handheld is not enabled for wireless email
reconciliation, reconcile your email manually using
the BlackBerry Desktop Software. For more
information, refer to the
BlackBerry Desktop
Software Intellisync Online Help
.
How do I stop email messages from
being sent to my handheld?
