hey everyone i have had my BB Bold for 3 months now and have loved every day with it, never had a problem.

Suddenly last night i get terrible service everywhere i go. Never had this problem, always had great 3G service, now im constantly "searching for signal" and if anything getting one bar of 1X.

I am on Verizon (great service in my area) running the latest official version of BB5.

I've done the battery pulls, checked for updates, reinstalled the OS...nothing helps

any ideas?

Did you call VZW? Perhaps they are working on a tower in your area.

It sounds like a tower issue in your area. Call Customer Service and report it.

called them, sorry i should have mentioned that- no tower issues in my area according to verizon. also a coworker has the same phone also on VZ and he has full 3G service in the building while i have no service

I am having the same issues. I figured it was this latest build of OS6 as that and a PRL update were the only things I have done recently.

I have had the same issue twice with my Bold. First time it was a tower issue. They fixed the tower. It was only detected after they sent a tech out to check the signal. The second time was after towers were reconfigured. A hybrid PRL was pushed to my device and all has been well since.

This may not help at all and you may in fact have already tried, but if not, I'd remove sim and set to cdma only, also home network if applicable, reboot phone. Worth a shot.
