Curve 8320 Known Issues Already
I picked up an 8320 yesterday afternoon just before the Company email that told them not to sell. When I got home I attempted to connect to my @Home Hotspot. While the Curve found the router, it did not illuminate the UMA under the Wifi symbol to indicate Calls going out over WIFI. In fact, it kept searching for network. Took it back to store, associate looked up on their tech sheet and said a known issue had been posted. Disconnect the Wifi connection and reconnect. Went back home, did all that, still did not work. Went back to store (only 1 mile from home) and was told that there had been many complaints about this and a Company email was sent telling them to stop selling. Manager said going home to try his at his house and would contact me. His did not work at his house either. Call advance tech, spent 20 minutes troubleshooting, she told me to return phone. Went back to store, they asked that I wait till Monday and see if that made any difference. Went back home, still did not work. Went to a different store this morning, said that they were just released to sell today. Told them the story, changed phones, put in SIM card, IT WORKS JUST LIKE IT IS SUPPOSED TO. UMA SHOWING WITH SIGNAL STRENGTH BARS. This store also had 3 or 4 complaints from yesterday sales. Since they are located beside a Starbucks they are going to test every Curve they sell to ensure that the UMA is registering before the customer leaves. A lot of trouble and acknowledged known issues, but they solved my problem, I am at home and UMA is working perfectly. Just thought I would share with all of you because you have been waiting just like I have - this is my first Blackberry so I will be spending a lot of time this weekend learning new techniques.
