Default Rogers $15 Plan Battery Pulls

I switched to the Rogers $15 Personal Email for Blackberry Plan on January 28.
Since then, my Opera/Google Maps/Windows Live have not worked and I have had to do Battery Pulls to correct the problem, one on January 31 (Thursday) and one today (Tuesday). That is approx. every four days. I don't think there is a way to fix this and I don't really care. A Battery Pull is a simple thing to do and is good for the BB anyways. But I am curious as to whether the rest of my "Rogers $15" friends are experiencing the same thing!

I had to do battery pulls for about the first two weeks when I had the personal email plan when running opera. But that's all I had running. Now that I have windows live I have not yet had to do a battery pull....yet *knocks on wood*. Maybe its just like a simple "overload of data" reset haha

Technically, the items your trying to axxs are not SUPPOSED to work as they are all 3rd party apps....knocking on wood at this point is the best you can do lol.

This doesn't solve your problem but.

Go here and download Soft reset saves you doing battery pulls, probably save your battery door too.

Or hold down I believe ALT+CAP key

Another note when you have trouble connecting with Opera mini etc, I find just turning wireless off and on again does the trick no need to battery pull.

I have had to do one battery pull for Opera not connecting, and about 50 getting all the other apps loaded up. LOL

Honestly, if a battery pull is all that is required for hours of BB fun, then maybe I should pull my own battery every once in a while.
