Here are the final three tips. You can vote now by leaving a comment on this post or emailing us at info@blackberryhomepage.com. The first two posts are up yesterday. Here are today's tips.
1. On Curve 83** devices, and quite possibly all QWERTY keyboards, if you hold down ALT, SHIFT and press DEL your device will reboot. Its nice to reboot without having to take your battery out
2. On my 8320 in Camera, to toggle between fullscreen and regular moder is the SYM key. To toggle through the flash modes, the SPACE key. In Video mode the SPACE bar is used to toggle through the "light" mode. It make for a great FLASHLIGHT...better than using your BlackBerry's backlight by far!! This is only available in 4.3 and up.
3. (Quite lengthy) This modification will allow you to stream Audio and Video sound to any bluetooth headset. The results may be in mono or stereo it depends on the headset itself, and since I don't have the time to test every headset out there lets just be glad we can even do this.
There is now support for 8300, 8310, and 8320. I have made this with the most recent OS's for each device as of this post.1. Download and Install the most recent OS for your Device.8300 OS 4.2.2.1818310 OS 4.2.2.1818320 OS 4.2.2.1842. Delete the Vendor.xml file which is located here on your PC:C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader 3. Download my version of the Java folder for your device.8300 Java Folder 4.2.2.1818310 Java Folder 4.2.2.1818320 Java Folder 4.2.2.1844. Extract the Downloaded Zip5. Replace the "Java" Folder with the one that was installed in step 1, It is located here:C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\Shared\(your OS #) 6. Plug in your BB in, and start Desktop Manager.7. Start Application loader and it will ask you if you want to "replace the files with the OLDER ones provided by Desktop Manager". (Don't worry about the files being older...99% of the OS is the same as the original.As stated above this will allow you to stream Audio and Video from your Blackberry 83xx series device.
Just make sure you are paired with your Bluetooth Headset, play a song or video, then hit "Menu" and select "Activate (your BT's name)"This may also at times make your notifications such as ringer, emaill alerts etc... to go through the BT headset. If you have any problems with not getting notifications after disconnecting your bluetooth just play a song or video and activate the speakerphone.
