OS .591 Crashed my Tour

[rlkmartin]

I am on my 3rd Tour in 3 days. Verizon store tech rep called customer service and they said they were unaware of the issue. Tech support is walking me through .591 setup again. Will see what happens.

I am thinking of downgrading to 4.7 because of this! what the...........

The corporate Verizon stores in Arizona will not touch the BB for upgrading. They won't take the responsibilities . I did the upgrade and hated it I am glad to have the 4.7 again.

i only run official VZW OSs and i still got this error. i could not reload the OS, wipe or anything. i have had the 552 errors before on OS 4.7 anmd i could fix those. i was in SMS and just sent one. When i hit the BB menu button my phone reset and that Technical error came up!

Well,
I have gone 3 days now on my 3rd Tour and it is still running. Only difference is I have not loaded BerryWeather or BerryBuzz. I wonder if 1 of these apps is causing the problem? I am going to load one ata time and run for a day or two and see what happens.

Mine crashed yesterday. VZW tried to make me pay for a replacement at first! I said that it was their stupid OS, and that I was happy to walk to the other side of the mall and get an Iphone. I spend 160 a month, on service. They gave me a refurb. I upgraded again. I had loaded linkedin, podtrapper, pandora and vz navigator. I was playing music when it happened.

I suppose I am the only one who had crashing on Sprints 484, issues with 419, and issues with the other 2 previous 5.0 leaks... but I've had NO issues with 591 at all. As a matter of fact this has been the most stable and best battery life since Sprints official 4.7 the phone shipped with.

I find it so hard to believe all these people are having issues. Maybe there is a common unique factor that 99% do not do. Interesting.

I am beginning to wonder, personally, if there is something in the upgrade that is causing devices with borderline benchmark stats to brick. I know that I had a similar issue attempting to upgrade my Storm and when getting a replacement unit from Big Red, the upgrades worked fine. It's not much of a secret to anyone at this point that no two Blackberry units seem to behave alike. I had never seen the "Technical Issue" error either prior to upgrading beyond Sprint's official release (.484). But on both .530 and .591, my Tour has not even come back up after upgrading, going instead to the TI error, and causing me to reinstall the official.

i am on day 3 with my replacement Tour that came loaded with 5.0.0.591. i have both BerryWeather and BerryBuzz installed the entire time. No run ins with the Tech Issue yet.

The only apps i don't have installed that i did on my previous bricked Tour are: UrbanSpoon and Trapster, and a theme made for 4.7. Mine bricked with Tech Issue when i was SMSing. i haven't re-downloaded any of those thinking they may the issue. No idea.

My previous Tour was prone to 552 Errors...so maybe there was a defect in that phone.

i'd really like to figure this error out.

How did you go back to the 4.7? I HATE the upgrade, it has totally jacked up my phone and I'd LOVE to just go back to the way it was.
Thanks for any help!
