Default wiped and reloaded- bigger issues

finally got wifi to work again, and the calendar issue is not solved, and now any time I try to use the browser, it says the server cannot be found.

I've sent the service books three times. I am registered on the network.

I'm banging my head off the desk at this point.

battery pulls have done no good.

I'm depressed and naked without my BB. not quite sure how to function..

help?

if i had to guess, i bet you found those instructions in aristile's signature.

It's possible, not likely but possible, that when you downloaded the OS from the net that it became corrupted in the process. I've seen this happen with long downloads. Also, you could try downgrading to the stock OS and then re-upgrading, I've seen this method overcome just about anything other than a hardware failure.

that seems very logical, and most likely the case in this situation.

It's a bad idea to start a new thread when you've gone through all the trouble of explaining what is not working and some possible issues in that other thread.

I considered continuing my issues in that thread, but ran the risk of non-response.. and I needed a response.
and it's not really the same issue, though related.

and considering some of the threads around here, I didn't think it would be a big deal..

thanks..
I wish when you edit you could change the title- if it was you that started the thread, I mean.. if that was the case, I would have stayed in the same thread.

so far so good.. almost done reloading .168

I think it was warranted in this case. She was worried about getting no further responses and had she not reposted I never would have seen the first thread, just don't have that much time when I'm in class.
