blackberry bold 9700 Signal problem :( please help!!
i recently replaced my bold 9700s screen with a new one 002/111 since it was broken, while the screen was broken i was still able to get signal from o2 calls/txts etc came through,
since i replaced my screen im no longer able to get signal!
please note that when i replaced the screen i took very very very careful measures to make sure i didnt break anything else in the process so i dont know how this has happened :/
ok i read through a few threads, tried 3 times to upgrade the OS and downgrade the OS to OS5 but it still is giving me the problem of "No Signal" but when i do get signal its only from Orange or T-Mobile,
my phone is a contract o2 bold 9700! i tried the manual search for network but it isnt working either:S or listing o2 as a network!
would it be wise in buying the likes of this :

under the battery cover, at the sides, there is a U shaped black strip..... but you only change the screen.... there are 2 black screws at the bottom of the phone underneath the logo branded clip... did you put back in those screws and tighten them properly? I think they hold the circuit board antenna contacts firmly onto the antenna strip, so if no contact is being made, it will mess up with signal issues. Or somehow the antenna "pins" near the mic on the board itself are pressed down and not making contact. Try lifting them a bit with a pin, then make sure you put back in those bottom screws firmly....... see if that works

Try to take it apart carefully once again, maybe the antennae is not connected so good.
