BBM/Email not working on unlocked Torch

I have a 2+ years old BB 9800 and just brought it to Colombia and unlocked it. Before unlocking it, whenever I brought it to Colombia I just kept it at home and used it for BBM, email and WhatsApp. I turned off data services when roaming and used my wifi network for all that to avoid roaming data charges.
Today I unlocked it to use it with a Claro SIM card. I was surprised to find out that while I DID have signal and was able to use my wifi internet with my old settings (data off while roaming, even with data just simply off) and I was able to use the wifi network to use the browser, App World, facebook, WhatsApp, etc, I was not able to use BBM, nor was I able to re-set up my email accounts, which I had deleted before unlocking the device.
Interestingly, when it tried to sync the facebook app (working perfectly) with the BBM, it said it was not able to do so since my radio was off (and it was always on, I even turned data services on always, and it did not work then).
I thought this problem was just with the Claro SIM card (granted I was able to text and call from it as a Claro prepaid customer) so I put the AT&T SIM card back in, and the problem persisted.
I should also add that while I am able to use the browser, the automatic search is disabled. For example, if i type in keywords it uses it as an internet address and replaces the space for a period, so I have to go to google.com or another search engine for a search.
Is there anything I can do to recover my BBM (pretty much the only reason why I havent switched to iPhone) and my email?

Also, I have done the battery pull a few times, and I still can't use BBM or enter email settings. I CAN enter BBM, I just cannot send messages (red clock) or receive any, nor can I invite or receive invitations.

  • BBM, emails not working through wifi

    My BB Torch 9800 has stopped being able to use BBM, emails and a couple more apps through my wifi conection. I am in an area where ther is no network signal, so this service is very essential for me. The internet browser on the phone works ok, and some apps work ok (whats app,facebook). I have been onto O2 and they say evertyhing looks fine at their end, and nothing has accidentally been switched off. My wifes phone (BB Storm with T-Mobile) is still working with BBM ok. Please help

  • BBM, email not working on the new network

    Hi!
    I was using Vodaphone earlier, and all the function of my Blackberry were running perfectly. I could use my BBM, my email etc etc.
    Only recently I shifted to the US and took H2O sim card.( H2O uses AT&T towers.) My monthly plan gives me 500MB data free. Though I am able to use the internet (that too only through Opera Mini broswer) , my BBM, and my blackberry Email client are just not working. (I have to access my emails through an internet browser)
    I must have called up the H2O customer care service at least 10 times asking for the right configuration etc..but I have recieved no help from them at all. They keep transfering the call..and never respond.
    I hope i would some help/answers here.
    Thanks

    That is correct.

  • HELP - BBM does not work on Playbook (Bridged)

    Hi Folks,
    Looked into other threads but all problems seem to be related to older versions.
    I am new to the whole Blackberry Lifestyle.
    Currently own, Playbook (wireless) and Torch 9860 for about two weeks - enjoying them independently.
    ANY HELP would be appreciated.
    Just tried the Bridge function but the BBM does not work.
    It is funny cause my Playbook does get a notification for any BBM I receive, the remote works, the contacts can be seen on playbook but when I click on BBM notification it I get a message "Your Version of Blackberry Messenger is not compatible with Blackberry Bridge. Download the latest version of BBM to use it on your playbook.
    I did what I normally do - googled it. Found out the specs and I do have all updated apps.
    On my 9860 I have
    7.1.0 System
    Bridge 2.0.0.35
    BBM 6.1.0.55
    This is not linked to BES or anything - purely personal.
    I have already restarted my phone and playbook with no luck.
    I am new, so not sure of the difference between stuff like hard set, shutdown etc  etc or other technical terms - so would appreciate if you assume that I am a complete dummy.

    Hi playbookfun and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    Have you tried updating to the latest version of BBM™?  If not, I would recommend trying that by going to www.blackbery.com/bbm from your BlackBerry® Browser.
    Thanks.

    You don't. Apps are permanently tied to the ID used to purchase them. Instead of creating a new ID, change the primary email address on your existing ID.

  • Share photos by email not working. Brings up grayed out check box? Want to share photos thru Entourage.

    Share photos by email not working in Photos Version 1.0 (209.52.0) on a Macbook Pro 17" Yosemite 10.10.3.  Brings up grayed out check box? Want to share photos thru  MS Entourage for Mac 2008 Ver. 12.3.6  Thanks!

    @Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
    UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
    Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
    You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
    Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
    Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
    Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
    IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
    You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
    Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
    I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!

  • Sharing by email not working in PSE10

    Hi there.  I upgraded from 6 to 10 yesterday and things were going relatively smoothly until I tried to email some attachments.  I'm operating on a Windows 7 computer and was trying to share via email attachments.  I select my photos and the contact that I want to send it to and then it just goes into limbo with the little moving circle.  One time the actual message box came up, but then my attachments were too big, so I reselected some and I haven't been able to get the message box to come up again.  Just been trying to do one picture as a test, so its not a size issue at this point.  With an old computer I used to do it through Outlook, but don't have that on here as it is a work computer and we use Notes, so I was using the Adobe Mail Services option tied to an email which did get verified.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.  Amy

    Thanks for trying, but what you have suggested did not work.  Every time I try to share photos via email, the software crashes.  This is extremely frustrating.  As far as I am concerned, this software has been a huge waste of time and money.

    Problem started last night.

  • C6-00. PUSH EMAIL not working and Nokia Messaging ...

    Nokia Messaging doesn't delete / expunge with IMAPand PUSH EMAIL not working.. C6-00

    I had a bad experience with my gmail account. It was really slow. 15min looks to work but it won´t make it faster as push email is not supported by gmail when using nokia devices ( I have read it somewhere on a gmail mobile compatibility chart at google help pages)
    I have created an ovi mail account and it works as push email on my c6 00 (latest firmware). I have setup gmail to send a copy of all the incoming emails to my ovi account, so I have instant feedback at my phone of incoming mails.
    The bad news of this workaround is that when I reply i´m doing it from my ovi account where y erase the mails after reading as I have the original mail at gmail.
    I hope this helps someone that needs push+gmail.

    in the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete your e-mail account and reenter it
    OR

    Hi kaydee92 and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    Have you contacted your wireless provider to ensure there are no problems with your data plan?  From the home screen, what does your network indicator show in the upper right corner? Is it in UPPER CASE or lower case?
    Thanks.
