Add or remove call logs from your BlackBerry messages

by on August 5, 2009

By default, your BlackBerry stores your missed calls in your Messages application. So when you see that you have a missed call it not only shows on your call log, but in your messages as well. I’m not exactly sure why they did this — there’s a prompt when you have a missed call, and again it shows on your call log. I guess some people enjoy it. Thankfully, the BlackBerry is customizable, so you can continue to see missed calls in your messages if you want, but if you don’t you can turn it off. Also, if you like seeing your missed calls in your messages, you can also opt to have all calls display in that area. To get started, go into your call logs and hit the Menu button. Then scroll down to Options. Second in the list will be Call Logging. That’s the one you want. As the heading suggests, this is where you choose which of your calls shows up in your messages list. Missed Calls is up top and default. You can choose to have All Calls route to your message list, or if you want to keep your messages free and clear you can select None. Easy enough, right? So now you can see as many or as few call logs in your message list as you want. Simple, but effective.

none of my incoming, outgoing ,or missed calls show up under my call log. If I turn them on under my messages they show up there, but I want them to show up where they’re supposed to. How can I fix this.
