Yet another great and helpful article by @ASacco!
Experiencing problems with that new BlackBerry Tour? Is your tried-and-true Curve 8300 acting up on ya? Have no fear; you don’t necessarily have a “lemon” on your hands.
BlackBerry devices, and smartphones in general, can be a “finicky” bunch of gadgets. But thankfully, there are some quick fixes for common problems, many of which I’ve covered on CIO.com before in my BlackBerry Bible.
However, BlackBerry-maker Research In Motion (RIM) was kind enough to post its own set of 10 BlackBerry smartphone troubleshooting tips and tricks earlier this month. While there’s nothing groundbreaking–like I said, I’ve covered most of the material before–any and all CrackBerry addicts will benefit from a quick refresher of the basics
What follows is RIM’s recent list of BlackBerry troubleshooting tips, along with comments of my own, where necessary or relevant.
Overview of the steps:
- Check Wireless Signal Strength
- Pull Your Battery or “Hard Reset”
- Check Wireless Network Settings
- Register Your BlackBerry the Wireless Network
- Check your BlackBerry’s Connection to a Computer
- Confirm BlackBerry Can Receive E-Mail
- Confirm BlackBerry Can Send E-Mail, PIN Messages (BlackBerry Messenger)
- Resend BlackBerry Service Books
- Launch the BlackBerry “Help” App
- Visit BlackBerry Technical Solutions Center
