is my curve broken or is there something else i can do
- Hello,
So I've been on the phone with RIM for the past 4 days trying to get my 8320 curve to work. Things started going wrong when I went to install the new t-mobile 4.5.0.81 software. I now get error messages one being a java.lang.illegalexceptionargument when I start up the device. The other problems being that the unit runs 20X slower than it used to and the blackberry text messaging program either doesnt load or freezes randomly about 25% of the time. What they told me to do was reset the device and thats all they told me to do they had me do it every way possible including skipping over the desktop manager completely. I was wondering if there was anything else i can do to fix it short of getting a new phone.
any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Are you using MyFaves? The java exception could be caused by that. I had the problem on the last 2 OS's I used. If it is, you can fix it by resending MyFaves from TMO.
CrackMem is help for doing the OS upgrade, but at this point I don't think it's necessary to wipe your device.02-18-09 05:01 PMLike 0
