network no data??

[alicklee]

ok so today i was on my storm for about an hour doing my normal e-mail and stuff and when i got to class all of sudden my network went from 1XEVO to 1x and ev and there no data ??
anyone else having the same problem
or is this part of the bell upgrade for the full 3G hspa network?
if anyone can shed some light on this that would be great

[Roscopcoletrain]

interestinly Im on the other side of the country in NS and seemed to have lost data as well. Been nothing but 1x and 1xev for the last half hour

My dad and I are also having the same problems. I have the Tour and he has the World Edition. On mine it will say 1X or 1xev, but not in capital letters. On my dad's World Edition it will just say 1X only. He finally got through to a BlackBerry rep from Bell and said their working on the problem.

have you try CS they are like busy i was on the phone on hold for an hour almost and i just gave up i hope they are doing the 3G network upgrade *hspa*

[alicklee]

ok so bell network is down great well maybe when it goes up again it will be 3G

I am also having the same issue here in NB. Grrr!! It's frustrating!

[lordnordeth]

Same here in Halifax, but just started for me about an hour ago. Was able to get on net and BB Msngr until about 1630, then all went to **** in a handbasket!

[cbombaz]

Yep Same with me down here in Ottawa. I haven't had any data coverage for at least three hours.

Good Old Bell up to there antics again.

[thymaster]

Bell is aware of this. It's not a RIM thing. It's their entire data network that is down. Those with the Pre sucked more because the phone would go into activation mode (no calls and no text) when you power it off then on. At least I can deal with Text messaging while I go through Berry withdrawal. Hehe.

[lordnordeth]

Hehe...same here, but it's damned hard to do my job when all I have to work with is SMS! I normally use BB Msngr for dealing with Job issues, and arranging Staffing. Never realized how dependant I had become on it, until today.

Just as a side note, Telus is having same issues. One of my employee's is with them, and he's having the same problems.

Just a thought...isn't today or tomorrow supposed to be the roll out of the new BIS server?
Wonder if that has anything to do with it?

[Davanw]

Looks like mine just came back up.

[paulquzz]

mine is down as well
dman bell

[alicklee]

mine just came back up too all of a sudden flood of email on my berry it didn;t stop dinning for about a min lol
well i guess if bell and telus is having the same problem that is due to the network upgrades *i dont believe what bell or telus rep say* they are upgrade to the new 3g network and it cause a problem with the data cause of the HSDPA intergration that what it really is

[Davanw]

i'm down again.

it was up for a bit... got a flood of messages.... and then down again.
