This software is limited to intranet browsing for corporate backdoor websites or links. Please provide feedback and suggestions deemed appropriate.



The following link contains the BB Connect Software (v.3.37) for the P990i.

Bigfeat Hi,
Trying to access your BB connect files for the P990i, I'm going thru the pocess but can't get the files (all 3 of them). The system won't accept my PDF password for the PDF file or the other password for the 2 other files, and finally gets to a message:"HTTP server is not alive". can you help?
Thanks

Check your browser settings. It appears to be running fine as I do see download activities.

What version is your handset saying you have. I drafted the guide using the most current version connect software. So there is no update. If your mobile is having issues with IMEI/PINs then they need to troubleshoot it.

Vodafone (UK) no longer support Blackberry Connect for new devices, and also block PINs on the mobileemail website. So this will be your problem.

I believe there's a way you can still work around this if you're an existing BB account holder. Inform Voda that you are swapping the PIN/IMEI IDs on your account. This happens on a daily basis for a myriad of reasons like phone upgrades and so forth and Voda will acknowledge that this is a reasonable request with special circumstances.

Make sure you hit "Register" on your handset and have RIM verify that they have received the registration request from your handset. They will ask you to verify your old PIN registration. Thereafter, RIM will the swap the PINs on their end and the BB Intermail Mail interface will actually prompt you with a message noting that the PINs are being swapped.

The case that Artesea has made is partially true. There may be a general mandate to slow down the influx of BB Connect account holders. However, there are exceptions that these carriers make on a case by case basis. In your case, it appears that hey have escalated it, therefore, my suggestions should help you out.

Default Vodafone UK issued P990i

Just realised my P990i has phone s/w version R5A006 and Organiser version R3A04. The figures are all lower than that shown in the Dummies Guide. I've tried to update but discovered mine is already up to date. Anyone knows whether if I select a country other than UK would help?

Best regards,

Erik
