    Thanks Underway and Midd!
    Hamster and I talk all day everyday on BBM so we are at wit's end now being reduced to SMS.

    I spent another 2 hours with Tier II tech support at BlackBerry this afternoon. After all the things I have tried and all the diagnostics they tried (including sending bbms and pin messages to Hamster and the tech and to me and back again and timestamps and checking their servers to see the logs etc) they have concluded that it is NOT A DEVICE ISSUE.

    They believe it is a BB network issue. So BB and BBM are at fault and not VZW or ATT.

    Their Tier 3 or Network Analyst is going to be hot on my case and with 24-48 hours I am going to hear from him. Let's hope he has a solution. I am going to hold off doing the full security wipe and reload one painful app and theme at a time since I would rather remove my liver with a shrimp fork than do that.

    I feel like I have been dragged through a knothole since I have spent 4 hours in the past two days on the phone with these techs. All very nice people, but I am kinda tired of repeating the same story again and again to them. If it solves my issue tho, it's worth it. Especially since I don't have to reload everything again...YET!!!

    Midd, I was beta testing the new BBM and hated the lag and typing errors etc so I deleted it. I would go backward rather than a leak at this point I think.
    I'm glad they are taking your case seriously and working hard to resolve it. I most certainly hope you don't have to remove your liver with a shrimp fork. But if you do, make sure you take a video.

    Hey everyboddddddddeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyy!!!

    Hamster and I are back together on BBM!
    In fact, this morning, my other contact and I are finally back on too!! So whatever was wrong fixed itself or BlackBerry really DID work on the network issue.

    I'm so happy. I can't tell you how upset I was yesterday when faced with the prospect of security wiping my phone and starting all over!
    Well, all that is passed now...for a good long while I hope!!!

    So you have the same thing I did!
    It will clear up right away because if I was able to see my other contact, (and that was from last Wednesday) then it should be getting better.

    Hey, since I thought I would have to reinstall all my themes and apps, I started to cut out some of the clutter. I dumped a few apps and as for my themes; I did something neat.

    I took my phone and backed up the themes using BBSAK which creates cod files. Then I used BB Hybrid Tools Create-a-Jad and made an OTA essentially for each theme I backed up. So on my card on my phone, I have a folder for each theme with a small access file, the cod and the jad I made using the app. Now, whenever I want to install a theme, I can use my phone, my card and download the theme (although it does not need to go to the internet) and install the theme OTA. That means, no rebooting after each install like BBSAK does, no plugging into my PC, no going to the internet and loggin on to Mobihand or CB to download the theme.

    Pretty neat huh? I of course, just discovered this in my geekdom this weekend. Having too much time on my hands. How many theme s are on my card like this? Right now about 170.
