error message Uncaught exception:java.lang.NullPointerException
- Suddenly, I'm getting the error message "Uncaught Exception:java.lang.NullPointerException" when I try to run the Wall Street Journal Mobile Reader app or the AP News app. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and repeated battery pulls and still nothing.
Both were working a few weeks ago when I first installed them. No upgrades or anything that would affect it. Any ideas would be appreciated.

I uninstalled the program, and just put it back on since I got my replacement phone yesterday, and so far so good because I really like the Wall Street application.

The solution to that problem is to clear the Address Book database on the device. From the blackberry website it say you can do this by:
1) Open BlackBerry Desktop Manager.
2) Click Backup and Restore, and select Advanced.
3) From the Handheld Databases list, select Address Book.
4) Click Clear. Go back to the BlackBerry Desktop Manager window.
5) Synchronize the Address Book.

I pulled the battery several times. Given what this market looks like, maybe it's better that I don't have the Wall Street Journal application on my Storm.02-21-09 12:50 PMLike 0
- I had the same error and what worked for me was that i went onto the desktop manager and cleared the phone call log03-06-09 09:35 AMLike 0
- You won't believe this, but I think I solved the problem. While installing the new Blackberry Apps Store, it indicated that I needed to allow it to access the internet. I did and it worked. It got me thinking about my other 3rd party apps that caused the Uncaught Exception error. I changed each apps connections permissions to "allow" (they were set to "Deny") and they all work now. Here's what I did...
Device Options
Advanced Options
Applications
Highlight application, hit Blackberry key, and select "edit permissions"
Change connections to "allow"
Thanks to everyone that responded.04-02-09 11:33 AMLike 0
