Don't know anything about BES, but I know several of my users have had
the OS on their phones upgraded and were not very happy with the
results.

Hey folks, 

 

Sorry to semi-hijack this thread, has anyone done an upgrade from BB
Server 4.x to BB 5.x and have any advice, horror stories, gotcha's?

If I ever bothered to sync my BB with my Outlook contacts I'd check to
see what the behavior was after I synced such a number from Outlook
was... because Outlook WILL allow that format...

Joe,

User is full of horse hockey.  I can't even input the '/' mark when in
dial mode or can I input a '/' mark in a numeric field.  My test was in
two parts. 

 

1.       Attempt to dial your phone number in the xxx/xxx-xxxx format.
No go.  The / marks is  alternate on key on the 'g' key/  When I press
alt+g I get no response.  When I just press 'g', I get a capital G.
Fail.

2.       I tried to add you to my address book on my blackberry and when
I attempted to type '/', I get a capital 'G' only, no slash.

 

HTH,

Outlook 2k3

Exchange 2k3

 

I have a user, who has hundreds of contacts in her Outlook.  She's new
to our agency, and we imported her contacts from her previous job.  She
says that her Blackberry didn't have issues dialing these numbers, but
that her Samsung Saga WM device does.  When I investigated, the issue is
that a lot of the phone numbers in her contacts were input as XXX
/XXX-XXXX.  The Samsung doesn't like the forward slash, so when she
tries to dial these numbers, it dials the area code only.  I proved that
the slash is the issue, by having her fix one number, and try it, and lo
and behold, the phone dials the full number.

 

My question:  Is there a tool, script, whatever, that I can have her
use, to go through her contacts, and replace the forward slash with a
dash?  She already has a bad view of WM, and I need to get a solution
for her fairly quickly.

 

I can't even prove or disprove that the Blackberry can or can't dial a
number in the format XXX /XXX-XXXX.  If someone else could try it and
let me know, I'd personally appreciate it, even though I can't go back
to her and tell her she's full of it or not...
