Wierd signal issue...

Have the Curve 8330. When I got it activated they had trouble getting the data to work at all. Finally got that working.

However, my signal in the top left of the screen is usually a 1X. But it only stays that way for an hour or 2 at a time. I will check the phone after a while and the signal will have changed to 1xev. When this happens I get no data at all. I can easily fix it by going to "manage connections" and turning the wireless network off then back on. But the same thing will happen in another hour or 2.

I thought I should be seeing 1XEV instead of 1X for the data to work but I may be mistaken because my data works with 1X.

It is not a signal issue because we have 2 other verizon blackberrys(Tours) in the house that work fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

The first thing I would do would be sure the OS software on your Curve is up to date. The latest release from Verizon is 4.5.0.138. You can check this by going to Options>About. If it is not, you can go here for the latest download from Verizon and install it via Blackberry Desktop Manager. There is also a link for the latest Desktop software on that page too.

Thanks for the response.

I have re-registered in the host routing table several times. Still having the same issue. Have run the diagnostics test as well.

I have not re sent my service books. I know where to look at them in the option, advanced options but I don't know how to re-send them.

Thanks for the response.
