Personalize your Ringtones

One of the many great things about a BlackBerry® smartphone is that you can set up individual ringtones for the various incoming messages or tasks (email, IM, and other alerts) as well as custom ringtones for individuals as discussed in the previous post on Changing-Your-Ring-Tone. This can help you to set priorities to your daily tasks by notifying you that you have a new e-mail message rather than a Facebook alert, or a meeting coming up and not an IM.

How to Personalize your Ringtones by Task
(Note: this is based on BlackBerry® Bold^TM smartphone)

Your BlackBerry comes with some preset Sound Profiles - Vibrate, Quiet, Normal etc. However, you can change the settings within any of these to fit your preferences, or set up a new profile.

• Find the Sound Profile Icon, open and find the "Advanced" option to make changes.
  
• Choose a profile that you would like to edit - for example "Normal"- or click on the BlackBerry menu button and choose "New Profile"
• A page with a list of alerts, types of messages, and application or tasks that use ringtones will be shown on this page. You can make changes to any of these.

Choose one task/alert/message (for example BlackBerry Messenger Message) by clicking on it.

There are a variety of settings that you can adjust, as well as you can have different settings for in and out of your holster (BlackBerry case). To make changes to a particular setting:

• Scroll down to the item you want to change
• Click the BlackBerry Menu button, choose "Change Option"
• Highlight your setting and select.

Note: If you are changing the ringtone or volume you will hear the ringtones as you scroll over the options.

When you have made all the changes you want to make to Ring Tone, Volume, Number of Beeps, Repeat Notification and Number of Vibrations click once more on the BlackBerry Menu and choose "Save". You can do this for any of the items on the profile. In fact. you could potentially have a different ring tone for each type of message, calendar alert etc. Personally, I have set my IM clients with one ringtone, my personal e-mail with another, and work e-mail with a third variation.

Personalizing Your Home page

Due to new methods of production, and digital technology we have come to expect that we should be able to modify anything and everything. From our computer desktop to web sites, and from T-shirts to M&M's® - we want to be able to customize it, personalize it, and essentially make it reflect our own tastes and individuality. So, it will come to you as no surprise that the first thing most of us want to do when we get a new BlackBerry® is to start personalizing it!

Here are the basics to personalizing your home page.

* Note these instructions are specific to BlackBerry® Bold™. If you have another BlackBerry check out BlackBerry.com/Support for more documentation.

Wallpaper Picture

Your screen will likely have a nice scenic shot as your "wallpaper" or "home" image. While clouds, mountains and placid waterscapes are lovely - you might prefer a photo of your dog, kid, or your favourite Facebook profile picture. I went with my kids because it is easier to brag about them if I can also show off their picture:

Here is how you do this:

Use your BlackBerry camera to take a picture of your favourite pet, kid, place, etc.

From the picture view press the BlackBerry Menu button (this is the button with the BlackBerry logo on the left side of your trackball) This menu will have a choice "Set as Home Screen Image" - choose this and your new picture will now appear on your screen when you are at the "Home" page!

If you already have an image you want to use:

View Pictures: Media>Pictures>All Pictures

Open the picture you want as your Wallpaper

Press the BlackBerry Menu button (as above) and choose "Set as Home Screen Image"

If your picture isn't already on your BlackBerry,:

Use e-mail to send the image to an address associated with your BlackBerry.

Open the attachment and save it. View Pictures: Media>Pictures>All Pictures (or choose the folder where you saved your image)

Open the picture you want as your Wall Paper.

Press the BlackBerry Menu button (as above) and choose "Set as Home Screen Image"

Note: Reduce the size of you images before e-mailing them, you don't need a picture that is 12" for a BlackBerry screen! Remember data charges may apply.

Icons

Chances are the Icons on your main page are not set-up the way you would like them. We are all different - so of course you can customize this as well!

• Think about what tasks you do most frequently, or which applications you use most often. These should be the first icons you see when you turn on your BlackBerry.
• Move the icon by highlighting the icon and clicking the BlackBerry Menu button, and then choose "Move".
• The Icon will now have a frame with arrows around it, use your trackball to move it up, down, left or right.
• Do this with any other Icons you wish to move until your page is exactly as you want it!

Get customizing! What other things have you done to personalize your BlackBerry?

Changing Your Ringtone

It is one of the first features people change when they get a new phone - the ring tone! For some reason a ring tone says something about you, and it makes the phone "yours". Not only does it reflect your groove, it can also allow you to know who is calling without looking at your BlackBerry® by setting a custom tone for your favourite (or not so favourite) people.

Changing Your Ring Tone

How to change your ring tone?

• Choose Media on your main page

• Then click on Ring Tones on this menu
• Choose "All Ring Tones"
• From here you can play any of the pre-loaded ringtones.

• When you have located a ring tone you prefer click the BlackBerry Menu Button and choose "Set as Ring Tone".

• That is it!

How to personalize your ring tones by individual:

• Go to your address book

• Find the person whose ring tone you want to customize
• Click the BlackBerry Menu button, scroll down to Add Custom Ring Tone
• Chose the ring tone and press OK.

Stay tuned for a future post on advanced sound customizing on your BlackBerry.

What is your favourite ring tone? Have you ever heard a ring tone that annoyed you? Made you laugh?

Personalization Theme

Continuing on the personalization theme, not only can you change the Wall Paper or Home Image, and move around your Icons - you can change the format or setup of your desktop by changing your "Theme".

A theme can be a great way to add a bit of fun to your BlackBerry! Depending on the theme you choose it may change the background image, the placement of the icons on the desktop, or the look of the icons. Your BlackBerry comes installed with a couple themes, but you can also find plenty of websites where you can find plenty of free themes and you can also buy themes around your favorite sports team, video game, or if nature or dogs is more your style those can also be found.

Changing Themes:
1. Choose the Options icon

2. Click "Theme"

3. Select a theme

4. To return to the Main Screen press the Escape Key (the rounded arrow)

Do you have a favorite theme?

Taking Picture

I went to a BBQ this weekend and I was chatting with a couple of recent converts to the BlackBerry® smartphone. We spent quite some time wondering how we existed B.B. (aka Before BlackBerry). We marveled at how we got along before we could IM, email or check Facebook® from anywhere. Similarly, my previous BlackBerry was a model without a camera. I didn't mind, as I didn't know what I was missing.
Now that I have the BlackBerry® Bold^TM smartphone I've found so many uses for the camera on my BlackBerry device!

• Shopping: Taking pictures of products and sending them to family and friends "Hey, do you like this one?" or "Is this the brand you wanted me to pick up?", or "Add this to my wish list!"
• Just in case pics: We found this handy when we were on vacation and the rental car was in less than perfect shape. As we did the initial walk-around with the rep we took pictures of the damage.
• Line-ups: I will on occasion send my husband pictures of grocery store line-ups or photos of traffic (I commute - I don't do this while I am driving ) instead of sending him a long explanatory email about why I will be late.
• Weather: I like to brag when we have nice weather so sometimes I will take a picture and send it to my family on the rainy coast.
• Home Improvements: We were recently shopping for hardwood floors and so I took photos of the room with us. It doesn't beat having the actual samples in the room, but it meant we brought home the right samples the first time!
• Quick shots for sharing: Best of all I love being able to take pictures and immediately share them without every having to download them to a desktop.

What interesting uses have you found for your BlackBerry camera?

Geotagging 101

Thanks to digital photography I take thousands of pictures a year. I have about 15,000 images stored on my computer, only sortable by date or folder name. So, I have recently started to tag these images with keywords describing the individuals and events in the pictures. In the future when I want to be able to locate all pictures of my son sleeping in a car or pictures of my husband and I on vacation, I will be able to simply click on a few check boxes or type in a selection of keywords in my photo software. Of course doing this for 15,000 images is a time consuming job.

Along with tagging the images with the people and activities in them I often use keywords to describe the location the image was taken. As cameras have become more advanced, some are now including GPS capabilities, which means that this will longer be necessary. Cameras with GPS technologies allow location information (longitude and latitude) to be written directly to the file at the moment the image is shot. This ability is also available on some newer BlackBerry® smartphones and is termed "Geotagging".

What is geotagging?

A digital photo is geotagged when location data (latitude and longitude coordinates) are added to the digital file alongside the photo’s existing EXIF data.

What you need:

BlackBerry with camera and GPS (enabled)

How to turn on Geotagging:

(Note these instructions are specific to BlackBerry® Bold^TM smartphone because that is what I have)

• From camera screen click on the BlackBerry menu button (this is the button with the BlackBerry logo).
• 1. In this menu choose "Options"
• 2. Scroll down to "Geotagging" and set to "Enabled"
• 3. Click on the BlackBerry menu button again and choose "Save"

When you are in the camera screen you should see a small map icon in the right hand corner. This indicates that you have enabled geotagging. However, in order for it to work you will also have to ensure that you have turned on GPS Services.

To turn on GPS Services on your BlackBerry:

1. Go to "Options"

2. Choose "Advanced Options"

3. Scroll down and click on "GPS"

4. Choose "Location On" for GPS Services

In the camera the geotag icon (the little globe in the right hand corner) needs to be white in order for the geotagging feature to work. If the icon is red it is not picking up your location via the GPS. For the most part this will be an issue when you are indoors or if you have just turned on your phone, as it may not have coordinated your location with the satellite yet. To be sure that you are connecting with GPS - open BlackBerry Maps® and "Start GPS navigation".

Now you are ready to shoot photos with geotags!

Watch for a future post on fun with Geotagging!

Auto Text

Don’t we all love shortcuts? We look for ways to make our route shorter (take the road less traveled, the one with fewer stop lights, or the one with more lanes), ways to cook our food faster (pre-cooked bacon), and ways to type on our BlackBerry® smartphone quicker. Whether you want to beat your friend in a type-off (whose thumbs are faster?) or just want to get more accomplished - you need to know about a neat BlackBerry feature - AutoText.

If you have ever typed the word "dont", "wouldnt" or "youve" using your BlackBerry smartphone you will notice that they quickly become "don't", "wouldn't' and "you've". Similarly, "i" becomes "I" and "www" remains status quo even at the beginning of a sentence. There are presets for commonly misspelled words, words with apostrophes, and words that require a particular lower or upper case at all times. If you need to tell a friend your phone number or PIN number simply type "mynumber" or "mypin" and the number will appear in its place.

You can also create your own AutoText settings to shorten frequently used words, or statements. A few I have created:

• Type "wru" and it is replaced with "where are you?" (a question I ask my husband regularly when we are out at the hardware store and he has gone missing! )
• Type "bb" and it is replaced with "BlackBerry" (obviously this is a well used word in my vocabulary!)
• Type "omw" and it is replaced with "on my way" (worthwhile when you are leaving work late and you want your spouse to know you have left)

How to use AutoText on your BlackBerry:


Go to Options (wrench) > AutoText

You can scroll through the presets to familiarize yourself with existing AutoText.

To add your own AutoText:

Click the BlackBerry Menu Button > New >

Type the quick text in the first field, and then what it will be replaced with in the following field, as seen below

Click the Menu button > Save
Ta Da! You have now created your very own shortcut.
Are you already using AutoText? Do you have a favorite shortcut for your BlackBerry smartphone?

Power Saving Tips For Blackberry

It might be a stretch to call this "going green", it isn't on par with using reusable bags or replacing your light bulbs with energy efficient bulbs, but these are a few tips tohelp you maximize your batter charge!

Network Connections
Turn off unused connections when not in use for example: Wi-Fi ® Bluetooth® (Manage Connections)
Use “Auto On/Off” (Options>AutoOn/Off)
Use a single mode only. Choose 2G or 3G rather than 2G and 3G. (Options>Mobile Network)

Applications
When exiting, be sure to close the app, not leave it running in the background. (close with the ESC key, the rounded arrow not red power end key. Or, choose Menu button and scroll down to close)
Log out of applications when they are not needed.

Screen/Keyboard
Reduce Backlight Timeout (Options> Screen/Keyboard)
Reduce Backlight Brightness (Options > Screen/Keyboard)
Use a device holster (this turns off LCD automatically when you put your device away)
Set Audible Roll for your trackball to mute (Options> Screen/Keyboard)
Key Tone Off (Options> Screen/Keyboard)

Camera
Turn off flash (Camera > Options)
Set picture size to Small (Camera > Options)
Set Color Effect to Normal (Camera > Options)
Set Picture Quality to Normal (Camera > Options)

GPS
Turn off GPS when not required (Options > Advanced Options > GPS)
Use the zoom out function to get the largest viewable area that you can still use usefully.

Browsing
Close browser when finished using (close with ESC key, not red End key)

This is pretty big list, do you have any additions? Or maybe just some general "green" tips for life?

Using Blackberry Messenger

About two years ago we were visiting a local park with our son when he met a new little friend. It was the first time we had seen our son, who was two at the time, play with another child, as opposed to beside another child. We were excited to see how well they played together, as were the other boy's parents. Over the course of a few visits to the park we eventually exchanged phone numbers with the other parents so that we could arrange a future play-date. Neither us nor the other parents ever got around to calling. However, at the park, later that summer, we were talking about our BlackBerry® smartphones and decided to exchange PINs so we could chat over BlackBerry® Messenger.

From that moment on we began messaging each other about when we were going to the park; we organized play-dates; and weekend excursions to museums or theme parks all via IM! We could have done this by picking up the telephone but there was something less obtrusive about Messenger. We could message and reply at any time, unlike a telephone call where there is the potential to call at an inconvenient time for the other party. Using Messenger made organizing and meeting up simple and easy. Two years later, my son continues to be friends with the other boy and my husband and I are great friends with the parents. I credit Messenger for our friendship!

Messenger is a great way to connect with your friends who have a BlackBerry smartphone. If you are new to BlackBerry devices or have never used Messenger this will get you started:

Using BlackBerry Messenger

• Find BlackBerry Messenger, hint it looks like this (and may reside in your Instant Messaging folder)

• Your first time using BlackBerry Messenger you will be asked for a display name (this is the name that will show up on your friend's contact list), and a password.

To add contacts to Messenger:
• From the Contact List screen click the Menu button - looks like this:
• Click "Add a Contact"
• This box will pop up:

• Type an email address, name or PIN, press enter key.

Note: You can only add a 'name' if the individual is listed in your address book with a valid email address.

How to find your PIN on your BlackBerry smartphone: Options (wrench), Status

Can you credit your BlackBerry with making a new friend?

If you don't have IM on your BlackBerry:

Free Blackberry Download - Viigo

Viigo is a fantastic free offline RSS reader. You will have some default RSS feeds on your BlackBerry. You could add and dispatch RSS feeds from the home screen of the application program. They also offer a pretty complete listing on RSS feeds you can select from if you select add from list.

Now to assume what makes theapplication shine. In the options you will find out a setting allowing you choose how many RSS items the software should have stored at a time. The default is 250 but you can change that to 1000 by clicking on that box and typing 1000 out on the keyboard. The software auto-configures your connection but if it is inappropriate change it in the settings. You then need to change if you want the software to autoupdate every selected hours or to only update manually. This is a groovy feature if you are on a limited data plan. You can as well set if you want the software to handle rich text and download images.

The RSS reader is keen once it starts downloading the feeds every two hours. The reading pane takes advantage of the BlackBerrys scroll wheel to control what you are reading. I wish they tailored the software to let you hit the Spacebar to scroll down in an item but as of now you can hit “N” to go to the next item and “B” to go to the previous. You also have the ability to send the article link by email from your address book. The only downside of that is that it only lets you email the first email you have on file for each contact, even if you select different email address. They just added new functionality to be able to add the item to your del.icio.us account.
