Let your personality ring out by creating your own personalized BlackBerry® ring tone. Just record a voicenote such as your friends' singing, your dog's bark or anything else you like the sound of.

Choose from existing BlackBerry themes or visit BlackBerry App World™ for a wide assortment of free or inexpensive themes.
In a world where it sometimes seems we type more than we talk, having an advantage can make a big difference. That’s why AutoText is a great feature to add when you’re personalizing your BlackBerry smartphone. You can create your own AutoText settings to shorten frequently used words, or statements. For example:
- Any acronyms that you use on a regular basis can be programmed into your BlackBerry to create your own autotext vernacular. For example when you type “wru” it can be replaced with “where are you?”, “bb” can be replaced with “BlackBerry” or type “omw” to get “on my way”.
- Another preprogramming feature allows you to type “mynumber” or “mypin” and the number will appear in its place.
- From Device Options, click AutoText
- Press Menu button and click New
- Type the quick text in the first field, and then what it will be replaced with in the following field
- Click the Menu button and click Save
- On the Home screen or in a folder, click the Options icon
