Curve - rebooting on occassion normal?

[thenotoriouserc]

15 reboots and counting. Mine is made in Canada.
Don't think it matters.

You are probably right it doesn't matter which country the unit is made in. However there are Curve users that don't have their device rebooting all the time whereas only a few percentage of us have ours rebooting. I believe exchanging the unit can rectify the problem on the individual side but there needs to be a solution for the masses.

Honestly, I suspect its a hardware error so the device itself may need to be replaced. I m hoping to get time tmw or tonight after work. Waiting on my receipts that I left behind at home. Hyper, how's that new unit treating you?

Glad you asked. Actually its not only NOT rebooting, but all the contacts/calendar objects are syncing perfectly. Super happy right now.

So guys,

I swapped my Crackberry 8300 and so far, no reboots. This unit is made in Mexico too, and I have a new battery as well.

I will update this if I see a reboot flaw again, but it seems so far the solution is simply to exchange it, regardless of where the unit is made.

It has happened to me 6 time in the last week on my 2week old cruve. ATT tech did not sound supprised and had me wipe and the reinstall the os the manualy reinstall all my data after 2 day wait ti see if it would doo it again.well it did with nothing on it and the answer was each time it does it to remove the batt for 45sec then replace and thgat "will fix it till the next time it hangs". How is that for tech support. So i was on call for about 10 min and was in the ATT store when it did it this last time and the rep said he will just replace it. So here I going again complette new reload>

Hey guys,

I got my first blackberry about a month ago and am noticing the rebooting about 3 times a day (when I catch it). It hasn't happened while I'm actually using it (i.e. listening to music, talking, emailing, etc.), but I'm wondering if it's just by chance.

I called T-Mobile yesterday and a tech suggested that I turn it off and on at least once a day so that my settings get refreshed... I tried and nothing has changed. In fact... isn't the phone already rebooting!? Anyway, I'll continue calling tech support to see what else they suggest and keep you guys posted in case they actually find the solution.

Until then... I'm expecting that I'll end up with a replacement.

I got my 8310 last Saturday, reboots constantly. It rebooted twice while I was on the phone with AT&T trying to register it... They are sending me a new one. What are the chances that the new one will be better?

[PerfectLawMinistries]

Chances are good!

When I got my first BB, it had the reboot problem...and it seemed to get progressively worse...finally rebooting every few minutes. ATT sent a replacement and it hasn't rebooted once. Both were refurbs, BTW.

I have never had a random reboot (big reason why I dumped the Battery-Guzzling-Brick (R) known as a Treo700wx) and one of many reasons I'll never use WinBlowz(R) mobile anything again. I did have ONE (1) freeze months ago and had to pull the battery. Otherwise, it's been rock solid as far as the OS which is one of money many reasons I love my BB!
