    For the first time ever I got a screen that said App Error 523 Reset. I just took my phone out of the holster, it had been working when I put it in. I clicked the trackpad my bb rebooted and everything seems to be working fine. I did just download an app a few days ago but it doesn't run when the backlit is on. I am really confused as to why this happened. How can I find out what caused this? I really need this phone to last until ATT releases the 9900. Thanks for any help.

    Error 523 usually means corrupted software, usually a bad .cod. Since you just downloaded an app and you've never had an issue up to now, I'd wager that app is your culprit - try deleting it, do a battery pull, and see if that solves the problem.

    IMO, it's the BB version of the BSOD or the Blue Screen of Death. Things just don't work out sometimes and your BB resets, just like on a computer. I've had that happen a couple of times. The phone shuts off, resets and all is right with the world. I'd suggest that if it does it a lot, delete the app you installed, battery pull and reinstall, but if it just did it this once, I wouldn't sweat it.

    523 isn't a major problem. Its just that your BB caught a criminal cod and is trying to get rid of it/fix it. Don't fret. Delete the app you downloaded before if that error comes again.

    Thanks guys, I know there is a conflict with this app and one other. They won't show on the home screen at the same. I will have to decide which one to keep and which one to get rid of. I had a problem with my phone not dimming after I used one of the apps even though the other isn't running a reboot fixed. I will delete and reinstall the offending app to see if it improves. Thanks again.
