Blackberry data not working?
The data and voice portions of a Blackberry travel on different wireless networks. Thus the phone part of your Blackberry might work fine but sometimes your data isn’t working (can’t browse, no browser ball on the home screen, no email). You can pull the battery on per the other post, and you can do *228, but often this doesn’t fix the problem.
To reset the data services with the network, do the following:
options==>Advanced Options==>Host Routing Table. Then hit the “menu” key and “register now”
This generally registers all the data services. Often this doesn’t fix the problem right away – it can still take a couple hours for all the data services to kick in.
This kind of problem occurs often when you switch your service from one blackberry to a new one. Or if you’ve roamed off the Verizon network (say you drove up skiing….) and came back into town – in that scenario the data services might need to be reset.
If you got your Blackberry from us, stop by any time and we’ll work these fixes for you. We’re much nicer than the Verizon store!
