Blackberry 8100 everytime I try to call from my address book a +86 is put in front of the number calling china or something

This is a corrupt software problem. This should be consulted to a authorized dealer.

This happens becasue of the following
1. the blackberry does not have the option to open the attachments.
A. check if the attachement option is intalled by going to OPTIONS == ADVANCED OPTIONS == APPLICATIONS.

2. the DESKTOP(CMIME) service book is missing.
A. call the service provider and as to resend the service book.

3. if the blackberry is associated to the blackberry internet service then the EMAIL ADDRESS(CMIME) is corrupt or missing
A. first delete the service book by going to OPTIONS == ADVANCED OPTIONS == SERVICE BOOK then highlight the EMAIL ADDRESS(CMIME) press MENU and then select DELETE and then call the service provider and ask them to send the service book.

4. the message data base is corrupt
A. clear the message data base on the Blackberry.

Hello, +86 is the extension to call in China!
You probably have to change your country code's setting for outgoing calls,
Can you check you rsettings here:
- Open Phone Log Screen
- Click menu "Options".
- Click Smart Dial;

And in general all your outgoing call settings related to region
Hope this helps

Are you sure another address book isn't hidden? You can view all apps to see if it shows up. If you click the menu button and show all or unhide. If that doesn't work try switching to another theme.

1. In the address book, press the Menu key.
2. Click Options.
3. Click General Options.
4. Set the Allow Duplicate Names field to No.
5. Press the Menu key.
6. Click Save.

Seeing as this is a blackberry I need you to do a hard reset- take the battery out of your phone while it is still turned on, then let it reset itself. If that doesn't work, consult with your phone company's tech support. Good luck

When you do your automatic dialing, does the number include the area code? ie. mine is 937 (937-xxx-xxxx)
If you don't have the area code put in with the rest of the number, that may be your problem. 1 is the country code for USA, so normally when you see a number that says +11234567890, its country code, area code, phone number.
+1(country)123(area code)4567890(phone number)
So anyway, the only thing I can think of is to put the area code in the phone numbers in your address book if they are not already there. Other than that, I dont know.
