Hi guys!

I just got the Blackberry Bold on an O2 contract here in Scotland 2 weeks ago.
Everything has worked just fine until today, when the waiting/loading/busy clock started to appear constantly on the screen. it doesn't matter if I am on the main menu, home screen, application or whatever. It pops up all the time. This is also very annoying when writing mail/sms as the letters are being delayed caused of the instant clock symbol that pops-up.

Is there anyone out there who knows what I can do to fix this? I did not do anything special prior to this problem.
I only have facebook application and an oxford dictionary application installed, but I have had this for a over a week now without problems.

About my device:

I have 35,6 MB free space of application memory.
859,2 MB total space of device memory, where I have 857,1 MB left with free space.
And 966,9 MB free space of Media memory

I am currently running OS v4.6.0.134(platform 4.0.0.139)

I just realized that the device is also starting to heat up! Seems like it's working on something which I can't figure out what is.

I would load the 162 OS - it addresses a LOT of issues. I doubt the hot phone will go away though, I have that problem when I tether - it gets hot!

Have you done a battery pull or soft reset ?

Yes you can also upgrade the OS as stated above which will fix issues...although different people have different issue so its sometimes difficult to pinpoint a certain problem.

A few others have reported their BB's warming up recently & no conclusion as yet.....maybe a bad batch of batteries ?

Ok. Where & how can I get this OS? I also run a mac computer, is it possible to use mac with BB?
Is this the only solution?

I just tried a battery pull(what is soft reset)
Didnt help.
The main problem is not the heat, it is just the stupid symbol popping up constantly

Sorry don't own a Mac...but theres a Mac section in the forum

latest O2 OS .162 is here
BlackBerry from O2 - Help and support

Perform a soft reset/reboot your BlackBerry
Press ALT+CAPS LOCK+DELETE

When you do a battery pull, leave it out for 30secs rather than just in & out.

The upgrade might help resolve the heat issue. Mine would do so when it was on the .92 OS system.
