Hi, I am getting a BB Pearl from verizon this week but have been reading alot of posts from ppl that say, they cant get blackberry messenger on there BB or that it freezes sometimes. Does anyone have a Pearl from Verizon, that can give me some positive or negative feedback about if its any good or not?
love mine no major issues.. Other then learning how it works LOL
bb messenger came pre loaded on mine..
no freezing here..
i wouldn't trade it for any other phone if that helps at all
I have a BB pearl with Verizon. No problems and I run tons of apps.
The pearl has the least memory of any BB, but don't let that stop you. Read the BB 101 forums. They are terrific at teaching you your BB - no matter which one.
i got the pearl for verizon and have been having all types of problems. My sms messages keep deleting, my entire call log keeps deleting, and now my phone won't ring it it will just show that i have missed calls and when i go to see what the missed calls are, it says its empty.
Pwb - low memory. Go to options > status. What does it say is your free memory. For any BB to run efficiently, you need 12 000 000 in free memory. http://forums.crackberry.com/f3/how-...-memory-34633/ will help free up memory. Having a memory card for your pictures, ringtones, etc is a must for the pearl. http://forums.crackberry.com/f35/quickpull-101512/ is a sweet app to have. I schedule a pull every morning so I start the day with refreshed memory.

If your messages are deleting you're out of memory. Battery pull or softreset will take care of that. BBM comes on all blackberries so your friends uninstalled more than likely.

Not sure where you're reading. I have no issues on my Pearl on Verizon. No freezing or whatnot. Just upgraded to 4.5.0.131 a couple of days ago. Probably have close to as many apps as D does.
D, just curious, why do you have both WeatherBug and WeatherEye loaded?
I like them both. I like seeing the temp with a glance and I seeing the forecast also. I downloaded them both to see what I like best and decided I like them both. I know of others with both also.

Definitely just got the Pearl and I love it.
Blackberry Messenger was already included and works great.
I haven't had any problems with lag or anything.
Just need to get the OS upgrade to 4.5.
Other than that it's a great phone.
Haven't had too many problems other than having to watch the memory. Overall I love the phone but am more willing to get a larger BlackBerry for the bigger screen and more internal memory. It is a great device if you want something small.
