Internet and BBM not working what so ever!!! HELP

I purchased the blackberry bolt on on friday and the £5.00 was deducted from my balance. My Internet and BBM however never activated or started to work. The signal appears in lower case as "edge" and "gprs". I have contacted o2 and went through all connection settings on the phone. Everything is correct. When i sent a registration message it says "registration message sent" but i never receive a reply. I updated all software and reset the phone completely yet no luck. I also went into o2 and they also are unable to help. I am waiting to hear back from o2 Support but this may take up to 72hours. My o2email tells me my device has been "suspended or deactivated". My brother gave me the blackberry as he use to have a contract on it but he has now upgraded to an iPhone. He has no arrears on the account or bill so there should be no reason for the phone not to connect
can anyone please help me as i have tried everything!!!!!!!!!
My phone is a curve blackberry 8520

Hey weeuna,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
If you're receiving lower case edge or gprs that means you only have voice only services and no data. I would suggest removing the battery and placing it back in and if the issue still persists then I suggest trying a new SIM card.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.

Internet and bbm not working.

help, my internet,bbm are not working and im not receiving emails, all im able to do is text. i tried taking out the battery and then restarting it but it did not work. any help would be appreciated, thanks

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!!
I suggest the following steps:
1) Register HRT
Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > BBKey (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your carrier.

Internet and BBM not working at certain times :(

I m on t-mobile network and every now and then instead of saying 't-mobile' at the top of my phone it says 't-mobile and orange' with a small red triangle. My internet normally works fine as well as my BBM and messages send normally, however when this service with the red triangle shows i cant use internet or bbm but messags still send okay??? please can anyone help to solve it as sometimes the triangle signal shows most of the day so i cant use the internet or BBM!!

In those cases you're roaming, it appears so set your Mobile network > Data Services to Data On while roaming, unless you're going to incur extra charges.
sounds like you're in a weak Tmobile signal area at those times.

I reported a problem and did not work, what do I do

I downloaded a game from my itunes for windows and went to the iphone, unfortunately, it worked, I was on my itunes, and I reported the problem, but it did not work, what do I do

It makes things easier if you reply on your original thread so that people know what you are talking about : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24121874#24121874 - each post should have a 'reply' button on its bottom right-corner

PLEASE HELP! BB CURVE 8520 EMAIL AND BBM NOT WORKING! :(

Ok, i would really appreciate it if someone could help me with my BB curve. i've tried the shop i bought it from and many other people and all ive been told is to send it away to be fixed. i really need my phone every day and dont want to send it away so im trying for a quick fix kind of thing, thanks to anyone who replies.
My blackberry was bought in October 2010 so its not old, from an o2 shop, it was working completely fine and great up until about 1 month ago.
i was trying to get onto the internet and a message came up saying 'unable to connect to server please contact service provider or try again later' or something similar to that.
from this appeared my phone is no longer receiving or sending any emails from or to anyone at all and my blackberry messenger has also stopped working.
i can open my email and bbm but when i open my bbm i type out my message and hit send and the message sends with a tick to show this but the little D for delivered never appears and my friends are not receiving my messages and im not receiving their messages either.
my phone says its connected to the internet and wifi, at the top of the screen the signal is full and it says EDGE most of the time or sometimes GPRS. i dont know what's wrong but its so annoying
i know this message is long but i want to give all details so someone can help me properly, ive tred resetting pulling the battery out, deleting and resetting up my wifi and all that, can anyone please help me? thanks so much if you can! its much appreciated! i can upload an image of what my screen says if it helps just let me know!

Hi, I'd recommend checking to make sure that you still have a Blackberry Data Plan by contacting your Network Provider (i.e O2)

Email service blocked and BBM not working on BB torch slide

HI.
I have real issues with my phone. First, my BBM stopped working, so I thought it was the bbm rim server because all other applications were working(whatsapp, email, facebook etch). Then I stopped receiving emails. Again, I didn't take it too seriously until I tried to send emails and a red cross appears with a message saying "service Blocked".
At this point, it is strange cause my browser works and my facebook. What really got me pissed was that my whatsapp stopped working as well, and I'm no longer on my mobile service plan, I'm using wifi at home. I was two seconds away from resetting my phone when it occured to me that it might not solve the problem.
I have looked at other possible solotions online and my phone does not have the advance system settings or the enterprise activation menu. I don't know what to do, HELP!!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Some clarification is needed...I cannot tell exactly if your device is a BES-enabled one or not...if it is, then stop now and seek support from your BES admins as they control, well, everything.
If you are not BES, then with a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Delete and Resend Service Books (pre-BB10 devices only)
KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
If you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletion
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Reboot
Pre-BB10 Devices ONLY. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
BB10 Devices. Hold the top button down until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the device to be fully shut down (e.g., nothing at all displayed on the screen, no LED lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red LED is lit. Wait through the full boot-up process. IF this fails, you can attempt the battery-pull method above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
Then again...

If, by that, you mean that you have allowed your mobile service plan to expire, then that could explain everything. There are many services on BBs that are proprietary, and access to them requires subscription to an adequate data plan from your provider, regardless of the channel you use them through. Even if you only use WiFi as your connection pathway, you still must have an adequate data plan from your carrier in order to do many things, including email and BBM.
So if that's the case, then it explains everything...sometimes, when a data plan is allowed to expire, it takes the carrier a few days (sometimes longer) to "catch up" and shut things down that you are not paying them for.
Good luck!

Email and BBM not working

Hi,
My email services and Blackberry messenger are still not working, despite the fact that the disruptions of last week have apparently been fixed. However, I am able to access the internet.
On the setup menu it says that there are two email accounts, but when I click on it, it says that there are no activated accounts and there is only the option for enterprise activation. The Blackberry and 3G sign at the top of the screen are present and in capitals. I have tried pulling out the battery and rebooting. I have re-registered with the host routing table. I have also called my carrier (t-mobile), who have said it is not a problem with them.
It's been over a week now that my phone hasn't been functioning properly. Can someone please help?
Thanks

For them to successfully fob you off that way is, IMHO, inexcusable. Regardless of where the root of the problem is (e.g., the RIM network or the carrier network), your carrier remains responsible for ALL of your services and support. After all, you pay them every month for your services...they are not delivering those services. Only they have the ability to seek for you any support from RIM...you have no direct channel to RIM...only via escalation from TM can you get support from RIM. It is so sad that so many CSR's at carriers are responding like this and fobbing their paying customers off. I encourage you to ring them back up and impress upon them that your service and support contract is with them...and they are responsible for providing that support and service, including escalation into RIM if necessary.
Good luck!

Won't connect to server - hotmail and BBM not working.

Hey BB Community,
I have two problems which I think may be connected through my phone's inability to connect to the server.
- First off, my contacts can't receive my BBM messages. I can write and send them off but they aren't received.
- Secondly, my email account (hotmail) is not working on my BB. It's supposedly connected and logged in, yet I don't receive any mails on my phone, nor do contacts receive anything I send. When I try to access my email account options, a message pops up stating "Your device had a problem connecting to the server."
Everything was working fine before I had to duplicate my SIM card (it was scratched somehow) and battery.
So my question is, how do I reconnect my BB to the server?
Would appreciate the help, thanks.

Internet and WLan not working on Satellite U400 Win XP

Hi all, please help!
I just bought my new Sat U400 and I am trying to install Win XP and it went quite well till I wanted to have internet and stuff... no internet connection with cable, neither with wireless.
I tried to find drivers but I have no idea what I need to look for, since I have no devices detected on my computer... the bluethooth i am already afraid of, since i ve never even used it before :D
I know something like wlan 802.11/a/b/g/N-draft in the parameters of my computer but that s all.
And to be honest i have no idea about what it should be so pleeease someone help me!
thanx
annamarie

Hi,
Yeah, thanx a lot for both of u! Finally I found all the drivers :) i was just not sure of their type... now it s ok. thanx again.
And i also had a problem with my battery, i just couldn t charge my battery even if it was plugged in for a whole night, but as i read and as i did, after having a BIOS update everything became really fine (maybe this can help others...)
I just can t understand - not any complaint or nothing but - if i buy a computer from a company super huge and good like toshiba why do i have to do a bios update myself??? i mean, shouldn t the company give u the newest and best stuff whatever? i don t care, anyway, i m really happy now, my computer works very well, it was worth the things to do for a day to finally have this fine stuff. :D
now it s only trying to figure out how to make the controls function with winamp... :D i can turn winamp on with the buttons of toshiba (i downloaded a plugin) but i cannot switch songs or pause/stop etc. any ideas? ;)
cheers anyway for all

Im trying to get my music from my external hard drive to my itunes and its not working. what should i do?

i set up my moms new desktop mac a couple of weeks ago and i did the same thing i tried to do on my macbook but its not working, yet it worked on my moms mac. so i dont know what to do. i moved the file from the hard drive to the itunes folder. then went to itunes, file add to library and clicked on the folder but nothing happened. so i went back and moved the music folder to the automatically download to itunes folder and it didnt work. i even tried drap and dropping the folder directly into the itunes library. it went blue so i knew you could drop it in, but nothing happened. i dont understand how it worked on my moms mac but not mine.

FIle>Add To Library. Select all the music on your external hard (Select all the artist folders) drive and hit OK. This will add all the music to your new Mac's iTunes library file.
Good luck and good choice on moving to the Mac

Trying to use a lebara sim for internet and its not working

Ive just come over to spain and i was told that it would be best for me to get a lebara sim card so i could use the internet whilst here. However, its just not working properly, i can get imessages and whatsapp messages however its just not downloading it properly.
Ive rang lebara and ive got their settings in my phone but still no luck, Ive reset my phone a couple of times and still nothing... Lebara has just told me to contact apple!
I was wondering if anyone could help?!

Hi,
Please check if there is Event ID 9017 and 9018 in the application log, make sure the MRM works well.
Please make sure the Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Assistants service is working well.
And you can increase the diagnostic logging level for the MRM, then you can monitor the events in the application log.
Best regards,
