Constantly sending and receiving date since outage

[spree8786]

Ever since the blackberry outage that happened, my phone has been acting very strange. I am on the sprint network and the sending and receiving arrows have been going off non-stop and it kills the battery. I have to shut off the data in order to keep the phone alive for more than two hours. I tried wiping out the phone and installing a fresh OS. In addition I tried removing the two email accounts I have set up. There are no apps running in the background. Sprint told me to go into a repair shop which wont help because they will do exactly what I just did and will order a refurb for me. Any suggestions? Thanks

I am having the same problem!
I have tried battery pulls, and full restores.

BlackBerry Bold 9930
Verizon
v7.0.0.374
p5.0.0.552

I am going to go into Verizon to see what they say.
It causing my phone to spaz since whatever it is consuming CPU.

Maybe it's only certain berries that are doing that. I have Verizon also and my batteries have still been up to par. I haven't noticed constant data exchange neither on my 9930.

So I just got off the phone with Verizon Tech Support Tier II.

We walked through a multitude of steps to try and correct the issue.
Finally, it was recommended to try to "Reactive" through Verizon automated system.

This seems to have done the trick for the time being, but if it acts up again they know I will be calling back.

Side Note:
Either I am uneducated or the Verizon guy was, but he kept arguing about how BlackBerry's seem to operate.
-How OS's get approved through Verizon before being pushed out to the phones.
-Data Compression (Tried to tell me BlackBerry eats just as much data as iOS and Android....)

Plus, a few other tid bits. After a few rounds of debates he just dropped it.
Whether he admitted to himself he was wrong, or just let the customer be right. I don't know. However, I think they should become a little more educated on products they supposedly support.

Well I figured out what caused this problem!
-At least for me...

For some reason BlackBerry was syncing to my Google Calendar, but it was duplicating events for over 1000 entries for EACH event I had entered!
So it kept resycning and adding more events to Google and then back to my BlackBerry Bold. Which caused the major backup!

I had to delete the calendar from Google and then I had a previous copy and re-imported it back into Google Cal, and then resycned back to BlackBerry and now everything looks great!
