    Some pictures that I take are blurry In low lighting conditions, the camera might compensate for the lack of exposure by using a slower shutter speed. If you move
    the camera before the shutter clicks, the picture might be blurry. If the camera is using a slower shutter speed, an exclamation point indicator appears at the bottom of the screen.
    User GuideMedia151 
    						
    							Depending on your BlackBerry® device model, you might be able to decrease the blurriness in pictures that is caused by slightmovements of the camera by turning on image stabilization in the camera options.

    cold temperatures, when the battery power level drops below 20 percent, the flash might turn off.

    							Ring tones, sounds, and alertsAbout ring tones, sounds, and alerts The profile that you select in the Sound and Alert Profiles application defines how your BlackBerry® device alerts you of phone
    calls, messages, reminders, and browser content.
    Your device has a Normal profile and five other preloaded profiles: Loud, Medium, Vibrate Only, Silent, and Phone Calls Only.
    You can change the tones in any preloaded profile to an audio file that is stored in your device memory or on a media card, or you can create additional profiles. The All Alerts Off profile cannot be changed.
    By default, some of the settings in the preloaded profiles are based on the settings in the Normal profile. For example, when
    you change the ring tone in the Normal profile, the ring tone in the Loud profile, Medium profile, and Phone Calls Only profile
    is automatically updated. If you do not want specific settings for a preloaded profile to update automatically when you change
    the corresponding setting in the Normal profile, you can manually change the settings in that preloaded profile.
    You can create contact alerts, which alert you when particular contacts call you or send you a message. Contact alerts are
    always turned on, and do not turn off unless you select the All Alerts Off profile. For example, even if you select the Silent
    profile or Vibrate Only profile, audible contact alerts remain audible until you select the All Alerts Off profile.
    Change your ring tone, notifiers, or reminders In addition to changing the tone, you can also change options for volume, LED, vibration, and notification during calls.
    1. On the Home screen, click the  Sound and Alert Profiles icon.
    2. Click  Change Sounds and Alerts  > Sounds for Selected Profile .
