On the phone itself under the status settings it has a different PIN and IMEI number than what is under the battery, also when I try to register it on blackberry it says the phone is suspended to deactivated...

today I have been using my phone, as much as
I would normally do. I have been affected by the 523 application error for some time but never paid any mind to it as it stopped after i deleted a couple unnecessary applications. But today my black berry pearl 8100, battery was low so I decided to plug it into a computer via usb at my school which has a 220 power supply. The phone locked off and showed a dim blue light and then suddenly shut off, I quickly pulled the usb cord out where the metal fitting that goes into the phone was burning hot. What exactly has happened to my phone? It doesn't respond in any way to usb connection nor its charger, already tried a different battery from another pearl... nothing happens ]]> BlackBerry Pearl 8100 KB124 http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=367170 http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=366472&goto=newpost Wed, 18 Nov 2009 02:05:07 GMT BlackBerry Handheld Software v4.5.0.302 (Multilanguage) Package Version: 4.5.0.302 Consisting of: * Applications: 4.5.0.180 * Software... BlackBerry Handheld Software v4.5.0.302 (Multilanguage)

Download

This download is from Vodafone UK but will work on ANY carrier's 8100 model BB. (Not 8110, 8120 or 8130)

1. Download the above OS file to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded. (Vista users be sure to right click on the .exe file and select "Run As Administrator.")
2. Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
3. Plug in BB and double click on "Loader.exe." It's located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

The process takes about 45 minutes to an hour depending on how much data you have to backup and restore during the process. Once it's done loading the new OS it will reboot (it may do this twice during the entire process.) You will see a white screen with an hourglass for up to 20 minutes at a time while the DM says "waiting for initialization."
If, for some reason, you end up with a white screen with small icons and the number 507, simply connect to the PC again and run Loader.exe again and it should load the OS to the device. ]]> BlackBerry Pearl 8100 zocster http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=366472 http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=365939&goto=newpost Tue, 17 Nov 2009 17:34:10 GMT Hi, When I connect my 8100 via USB cable to my laptop (WinXP SP3) AVGFree pops up this message; *Accessed file is infected F:\AutoRun.inf ... Hi,

When I connect my 8100 via USB cable to my laptop (WinXP SP3) AVGFree pops up this message;

Accessed file is infected

F:\AutoRun.inf

Virus found Worm/AutoRun detected on open

Is this correct? Or is it misinterpreting the automatic opening box? I've run a scan on the lappie after disconnecting and it's found nothing.

Any help deeply appreciated. ]]> BlackBerry Pearl 8100 SopwithSnipe http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=365939 http://forums.crackberry.com/showthread.php?t=364932&goto=newpost Mon, 16 Nov 2009 16:12:57 GMT I have a Blackberry 8330 Curve with Verizon...and have the internet usage plan and everything, and have hooked my Blackberry up to my Destop Manager...

I just removed & readded a Hotmail account from the myprovider.blackberry.com control panel.

Before I removed it (lesson f'in learned: ain't broke, don't fix it), email was syncing in the sense that when it was read on the phone, it appeared read on the web inbox. Now, after adding it again, after I read it on the phone, nothing happens on the web inbox!

When I added it the first time, it gave me an activation message about live's 90 day password change policy. After removing & readding, I get a message about "I need to go into my email client and choose "Leave messages on server" otherwise my emails may not sync" But I don't even use an email client!

So I tried a few more times of adding and readding, then I decided, Ok, I'll play ball. I installed an email client, and made those settings, readded the email a couple of times, AND THE SAME PROBLEM STILL!

I called my phone provider, they told me its a Hotmail problem. BS! I have another hotmail account on my phone that I never removed, and it syncs up JUST FINE! I have also tried adding other hotmail accounts, and they all have the same problem.

I don't want to call RIM support because you're charged for it.

What can I do?

When I go to Restore and click -Restore Selected Data it shows Password Keeper with a total of 21 records and password keeper options with 1 record. When I select them both and go to -Restore it says its restoring and then finishes.
If I then go to the applications icon at the top bringing me to install/remove apps, it doesn't show up there. Same thing happens when I go to my phone, even after a battery pull.
