Timer stuck at 72 hrs

[CobaltGirl87]

So for about a month now my timer has been stuck at 72 hours. ive let it run all the way out but then it resets to 72 hrs again! ive done many battery pulls since it did this for other reason and it hasnt gotten fixed. any ideas? ive read a similar forum about a Bold but the timer on 8900's doesnt seem to work the same. any help is appreciated.

Are you absolutely sure that it doesn't have a limit to 72 hours? Because if
worse comes to worse I'd think it's an OS issue. A bit extreme but hopefully
someone can help you out on this one.

click on the blackberry/menu button
click on set timer...
change the time using the number keys!!

Done that. Its almost as if the default is 72 hrs. It was not like this originally. Example, just tried to set it for one minute, and it started from 72:00:59.

that is weird... checked mine and it works fine...

If it is a huge issue you could back up your data and wipe the phone and re-load. What OS are you using? Are you interested in upgrading?

i still dont completely understand the whole OS thing, (i mean, i know WHAT it means) but if you mean App Version when i hit alt shift H it says 4.6.1.114

Just to let you know, I'm stuck on 72 as well, have tried everything and have no idea yet what to do....
