Angry grayscale on 8700r unit - 12-22-2005, 06:33 PM

By the way, reloading the firmware on a wiped device will bring back all 3 browsers at least until the itpolicy is pushed back down again.

Our latest issue: For some reason, the higher resolution devices (7100, 8700) only load page images as grayscale, or black and white, when using the BlackBerry Browser regardless of whether we browse internal or external sites. I assume that's to allow for quicker browsing, but we don't want quicker browsing, we want the page to show up the way it is suppose to - the way it shows up on the 7290s. As an example, we have a site where our BlackBerry users can see a graphical representation of how our stock is doing. Looks great on the 7290, but looks horrible on the 8700 and the 7100. It only shows up correctly if you wheel-click in the browser and select "Full Image" or something like that.

Any ideas?

I have searched and searched and searched, but the keywords I've been using seem to be fairly generic and usually I get lost in articles that do not seem to apply.

Thanks again...
I am having the same issue, I have no idea how to enable the color graphics on the 8700r unit, other units have no issues, 7780 or 7750 all seem to work fine using the blackberry browser. I have check all the mds settings on the server and restarted the service to see if it would resolve the problem.
does your bes have service pack 3 hotfix1? Mine does, but we are on a domino environment, hotfix2 has been released and I plan to implement this mid January, Im not sure if that hotfix did anything to mds.
