I am pleased to hear this as it helps validate my theory. Now, all I have to do is figure out why this is happening? (I am a serious tech type and things like this really bother me). 73
Hey Hudres.. Any luck figuring out why the SIM card removal helps us work around the issue? Is there a permanent fix out there?
I actually had this problem with my replacement storm when I first got it. I pulled the SIM card from the old phone, and put into my replacement storm and I haven't had a problem with freezing since.
I just figured it was a coincidence or something like that, since I had upgraded the OS on my storm right after switching the card.
im gonna give this a shot next time it freezes or is gonna randomly reboot... next battery pull its coming out .. and if it dont work.. then i guess i gotta deal with the issues just like every other BB Storm owner! lol
this might explain why I've never had these problems that everyone keeps yelling about, I've never had a SIM card in my storm. Now I know to unlock it if/when I need it.
12/19/08 Mexico, running .75 always had a SIM inserted never had a random reboot or freeze.........Camera slow,video slow but I have a camera and a video cam so I am good. I guess I am just blessed.
Well it has already rebooted so didn't work for me I put it back inAnd its been good for now I have noticed the reboots happen most when I get a new mesage onAny app and I try to take it put of the holster right when I get it idk why that would matter but it only happens with messages even if I leave the open or on the masage screen and it goes to sleep or whatever it does it goes to reboot once I hit a button somethin has to be conflicting

I encounter most of my freezes when I leave it "idling" on a bbm message window.
Anybody else run into this problem? I will certainly give this sim-removal a shot.
Thanks!
Storm OS .75 - When my Storm reboots, it is almost ALWAYS when in BB Messenger... :-| I get the "Device Error" with some number, it flashes way too fast to read then reboots... I dont think pulling the SIM will work..
was having issues with reboots and freezes. I wiped, downgraded to .75 offical and then upgraded to .132. No more random reboots. woo hoo. (NO Sim Card in my storm also.)
I was having random reboots 4-5 time a day on OS .75 and .122 I also wiped my Storm downgraded to .75 then back to .132 its been 2 days now and now I have no more reboots! I still have my SIM card in. I'm not sure if this is just my phone or if .132 was what fixed the problem.
I will give this a try. My storm reboots itself constantly. Now its doing it when I am on phone calls so, I hope this rather simple fix actually works.

Right. I was way happy Been almost a week not a single random reboot
Wow I have had my phone for 5 days now and it turns off about twice an hour and KILLS the battery. I'm hoping this works, too or I'm switching to the curve.
well since i cleaned it up... which was taking apps like appworld..deleting vznav and hiding those word excel and ppt programs and what else i didnt use and hit them and its been running better.. so i will see how it goes.. but it pulls what it did last night resetting every 10 mins and sometimes one right after another.. yea its going back ill get a diff BB
