Recently I have been noticing a couple different issues with my Blackberry Curve (Verizon). These problems include the speaker stops working, email account stops working, Web Browser will not load web pages and gives error message regarding Service Books. Below are a few things that have helped me fix my issues with my blackberry and there is a good chance that it will fix yours as well.

First issue that I have had happen, is the earpiece stops working, I spent a little bit of time on the phone with Verizon tech support. They had me resend the service books, didn’t fix it. They then asked me when was the last time that I sync my blackberry, well never, everything I need is over the air. Well apparently Verizon pushed out an update that has made my curve so much better, it runs smoother, faster and it seems much more dependable. The updates software also installs “Docs to Go” which gives you the ability to open Word documents as well as PowerPoint presentations.

2nd Issue: Your blackberry just decides to stop retrieving e-mail. I found that re-sending service books (Service Books) fixed the issue. Service books are basically just config files that tell the Blackberry how to interact on the network. To resend your service books, click email settings, service books, then cli ck Send Service Books.

Although theses methods are not full proof, they are a good place to start. I hope this helps you get back up and running with your Crackberry.

Till next time
