Default Help please with trackball

hello all, and happy new year
I just downloaded ota and installed google maps, it loads up and finds my location which is great, but now my trackball will not scroll up, I can go side to side and down, just not up. this just happened when I tried using this app. I did a battery pull twice, and just deleted google maps, the trackball still does not work properly, so I guess its not a google map issue?
Any ideas?
thanks,
clive

This happened to me once. I just cleaned my trackball with a moist q tip. Just make sure to let each side dry before you roll it.

Thanks for the help, I tried to reload the os had that cause the trackball to not respond before on a 8100, anyway gave me a reason to update to .124, I had to take the trackball out and clean it completely. I used a can of compressed air and blew out all the dust everywhere in the bb as well. Working now.

Cool, removing and cleaning the trackball is a breeze i think. There is alot of people who are intimidated by it...
