    Forgive me if this is a basic error on my part.
    Also, do you need to have a sim with a "Data Packet " attached to use the 7230 as a basic phone?

    Many thanks for your consuderation in this matter

    Thats quite an elderly model, so I'm not sure I can help you much. On the RIM site where you got Desktop manager, try installing an old version like 3.6 or 4.0. The newest version may not support your device. As for the SIM question, you don't have to have data. However with out it you're just carrying around a big old disabled phone.

    you may need to redownload the desktop manager and reinstall it. if that doesnt work, let us know which version of desktop manager you're using before we can proceed further.

    no, you do not need a data plan to use it as a phone.

    lastly, if you're using machine translation to post, then please continue and ignore what i'm about to say... but if english is your native language, please stop trying to sound smart by using "large" words improperly in an attempt to sound educated, because you're making little sense.

    When I find myself in times of trouble, mother Mary comes to me,
    speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
    And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me,
    speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

    Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be.
    Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

    And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree,
    there will be an answer, let it be.
    For though they may be parted there is still a chance that they will see,
    there will be an answer. let it be.

    Let it be, let it be, .....

    And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light, that shines on me,
    shine until tomorrow, let it be.
    I wake up to the sound of music, mother Mary comes to me,
    speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

    Let it be, let it be, .....
    And now, for something completly different...
