    My phone is doing the exact same thing. My address book is frozen on my blackberry pearl and won't open.

  • Anonymous Oct 28, 2008

    I got a new blackberry because the trackball on my old one stopped working....then the next day the address book on my phone was frozen but I could access it by other means just not through the icon. For example you can press the send key for a few seconds.



    Resetting by taking the battery out for 10 seconds repaired this problem

Reset the phone by removing the battery for 10 seconds. That should release the application freeze.

How to put phone numbers on the blackberry 8120
you have 2 options. you can load them directly in your "address book" by going into your address book, menu button (bb icon left of trackball), select "New Address" and enter the info.
Option 2 , would be going into your address book, select "SIM phone book" and enter the info there.
Keep in mind, when you use the SIM phone book option, you can only enter their name and phone number, and after you are done, you have to import your SIM contacts to your address book.
Any contacts saved using the SIM option, will stay on your SIM card.
Any contacts using the Address Book option, will only remain on the phone, and not on your sim card.
ho[pe this helps!

Can not open my Address book - everything else works!
A co-worker suggested I simply remove the battery for a few seconds and then restart. That's all it took to solve the problem!

Can't view my contacts in the address book
You have a filter on. When you see the screen that says "no addresses" you need to go to the top where it says "FIND:" then click the "Blackberry" key to the left of your trackball. Scroll up to "Filter" and click. One of your "categories" is checked. Click on whatever one is highlighted to uncheck. All of your addresses should pop up.
