If your smartphone was previously associated with a BlackBerry Enterprise Server and your administrator hasn't removed 
IT policy rules from your smartphone, you can use the 
BlackBerry Desktop Software to remove the IT policy rules. For more

The flash or video light dims or turns off
If the camera has a flash or the video light is turned on, and the battery power level drops below 20 percent, the flash or 
video light dims to conserve battery power. In cold temperatures, when the battery power level drops below 20 percent, the 
flash or video light might turn off.
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.
Depending on yourBlackBerry smartphone model, you might be able to decrease the blurriness in pictures that is caused 
by slight movements of the camera by turning on image stabilization in the camera options.
I receive an error message after I rotate a picture
Every time you rotate a picture, your BlackBerry smartphone automatically tries to save the picture's new direction. You 
might receive an error message if the picture is copyright protected, over a certain file size, or isn't in a JPG or PNG format.\
 
If the picture isn't copyright protected and if you have a third-party image editing application, you might be able to reduce  the size of your picture or change the format of your picture to JPG or PNG and then try to rotate the picture again.

About ring tones, sounds, and alerts
The profile that you select in the Sound and Alert Profiles application defines how your BlackBerry smartphone alerts you of 
phone calls, messages, reminders, and browser content.
Your smartphone has a Normal profile and five other preloaded profiles: Loud, Medium, Vibrate Only, Silent, and Phone  Calls Only. 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 don't 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.
