I have a JasJar and when I switch sims the mailboxes keep disappearing. I still see them in the TODAY screen but when I try to select them they are nowhere to be found. I also try to manually go to messaging but they are missing from there too. I keep creating new boxes and they are starting to number up Yahoo1, Yahoo2 etc.
Help Me.
Thanks.
Yeah i have experienced the same thing, whats seems to work for me is making sure you close down all apps before a soft reset or sim card change, go to start settings system memory running program list and stop all
This works for me every time now and i no longer have to set up my mail accounts
All you need to do is to turn off your device off for a while (a couple of seconds will do) before you reset.
It's because WM5 caches data to speed up the device a bit, and if you reset your device before it gets a chance to permanently write the data, it gets lost.
Best thing is to shut off before you do a reset, in case you lose data.
Well I sent mine to service, switched the mainboard and i can soft reset at anytime now, never looses any data any more.
Same Rom and config but the problem is completly gone

Which Universal device did you have exactly?
I have a Qtek 9000 that seems to be forgetting its authentications and I can't figure it out. Nothing else seems to be wrong with it which leads me to think it HAS to be a software issue, but I can't pin it down!
The only weird things I'm experiencing: Bluetooth devices lose pairing (device redetects them and asks for PIN), Wi-Fi access points get wiped clean (get prompted for WPA keys), and infrequently the Exchange Server password in ActiveSync and the GPRS login information to Cingular are asked even when "Save password" is set.
Qtek 9000 from Dangaard Norway
Min wiped Email settings, Wlan, and some GPRS settings
Don't know about BT, dident use it before i sent it back.
Thanks Bosjo, I was beginning to think I was the only one, or that it was a software issue.
I believe it's related to the fact that the IMEI temporarily disappears from the phone, so it loses authentication of itself and therefore the devices or credentials its encrypted with.
I posted full details here http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=797931 and will likely be shipping it back to the supplier tomorrow for replacement.
That's true, I totally forgot about the Imei disapering.
It also failed to display the radio version.
I know for sure that they actually switched the mainboard cause I have a different MAC adress, haven't checked the Imei number though.
It's a bit funny that this is a hardware error, one would think that it should forgett all settings then and not just pieces off it
Got the same problem. Im seeing my mail account on the today screen but can't access it, if i search for the e-mail's i can find them but can't access them. Anyone find a workaround or where can i delete my mail account i had before it dissapred, becuase now if i try to add the mail account again with the same name as last time it says that i alredy got a account but i can't edit it :/... Please help
damn, nobody found a solution for this? search thru the registry twice without a result ;/
does this happen only when you take off the battery?
another one ....
any solution for it....
regards
ady: nah when i do a soft reset
can't find it in somewhere in the registry either so don't know how i could remove this damn buggy thing :/

Hi Gang:
I have recently been trying to solve a puzzling issue that I was experiencing with my 8125, and I wanted to share the problem and (partial) solution with everyone in case this ever crops up again. I did pretty extensive searches here (and elsewhere), and could not find a single case of this problem happening to someone else. I tried every combination of search terms that I could think of...
Description: 8125 Freezing or Slow Down Upon Attempted Access of Phone Settings or other settings icons
Background: My (heavily-customized/optimized) 8125 had been stable for weeks, with no significant "upgrades" for over a month. Then I upgraded to MS VC 1.6. A few days after this upgrade, my phone got quite wonky (e.g. alarm going off non-stop, etc.) due to the notification queue getting clogged. I don't know if this is the fault of MS VC or not, though. Thanks to Memmaid & CheckNotifications, I cleared out the queue. At this time the phone appeared to be functioning normally.
A few days later, I tried to access the phone settings to manually select the network provider (traveling internationally). However, regardless of which route I would take to access the phone settings, the phone would freeze, quit responding, or greatly slow down. A soft reset was necessary to "un-freeze" the phone. Also, even if I tried to access other icons (e.g. Sounds & Notifications, when clicking on the Notification tab) under Start/Settings, the phone would quit responding.
Corrective Steps:
I initially worked the smartphone support folks in my employer's IT dept & Cingular tech support. Neither group was aware of this being a regular problem with the 8125.
1. Multiple soft resets – no help
2. Multiple hard resets – no help
3. Cingular replaced my 8125 – no help
4. Multiple hard resets of phone #2 – no help
5. Got a new SIM card – no help, but met a new Cingular tech
6. Hard reset** of new phone + new SIM card = OK
** Everything working OK now, with this "special" hard reset. During the setup procedure, I skipped the password setting screen, then let the phone unpack the ROM. In all previous attempts, I had enabled this password during setup (company policy, can't sync to Exchange server w/o it). According to the new Cingular tech that I met while getting my new SIM card, having this password set before the ROM is unpacked can "corrupt" the ROM unpacking. I don't know how true this last point is, but it sounded reasonable -- and it worked.
Next, I synced the phone (via USB) – guess what? The problem was back! Sooo, another hard reset and I decided to sync via EDGE first (i.e. email,calendar,contacts,& tasks only). The phone was still working!
After inspecting the ActiveSync settings on my PC, I noticed that I was not only sync'ing the 4 items above (from the Exchange server), but also "Notes" from my PC. This had to be the problem, so I disabled the sync'ing of Notes.
THE PHONE STILL WORKED AFTER A USB SYNC!!
Apparently there was some conflict related to the sync'ing of notes that was corrupting a key system file on the phone. Not sure what the root cause was, but by disabling the Notes sync the phone is working great again. I know this was a bit long-winded, but hopefully it will help someone in the future.
Of course, if someone has any ideas about how I might be able to reliably sync notes again, I would love to hear 'em. For now, I am doing without.
regards,

Hey thanks a lot for the info. I have been havng a lot of problems with my 8125 so hopefully this will help.
Ok my brain is about to explode…Does the bbconnect service do anything other than the push mail? I know this sound like a stupid question but bear with me.
I installed 4_1_.0.0.67 on my tytn and all hell broke out
- The blackberry software has hijacked the security login screen I had set up originally from my numeric touch login screen to a goggle-like field for which I have to either open up the keyboard or use the useless onscreen keyboard. If I shut down the security from the ‘blackberry security’ icon and go back to the tytn installed ‘lock’ icon it takes me back the 'blackberry security' screen anyway.
- I now have two user information bars and two device locks on my today screen. I know I can remove them both but dang…department of redundancy department anyone?
- switching between applications has slowed down to a crawl including the touch screen freezing for aprox 10-20 seconds each time I move between tabs and closing apps.
And to top it all off my incoming calls started being diverted right to my mail box. No ringing.
Had to nuke the bbconnect software and even that didn’t resolve the incoming calls problem and had to do a hard reset on the phone
I’m thinking I will kill the whole bbconnect package and save myself some coin as everywhere I go I have access to some wifi network anyway.
Sorry for the rant but am I missing the big picture here? Is there more to the blackberry connect service.
BTW I'm on a Rogers branded HTC TyTn with no modifications
BBC4 does make the PDA slower and does replace the original device lock by its own (which is terribly bad). Aside of that it works like a charm.

So it lookes you have to choose from 2 bad solutions....
- Remove the software
- Have bad performance
Isn't there another app which makes it possible to connect?
Thx all!
True, true. It is quite a load for the Tytn but at least I don't see that my device gets unstable.
I hope you know that you can disable the BB device lock? Just use Memmaid and disable BB's startup service.
But consider: you won't be loved by your company's sysadmin if you tell him that, and it is indeed a security loss. But you can replace it with a better locking software then.
Cheers

Oh Sh!!T... I just changed the bbsecurity service to manual from automatic, now I cannot get back into my TyTn... does anyone have a quick fix other than HR... I've tried SR several times, but that didn't work... I can connect via ActiveSync, I just need to start the BBSecurity service, then I can input my password (theoretically anyways) and should be fine... I used Memmaid to make this change... Just another example of using advanced tools without knowing the ramifications....
I guess i should have asked for more clarification first...

Hi, I experienced the same once. I am afraid, there is no way out but HR...
You should stop the service, not delete or manual start. I.e. after each SR you will be asked for the BB password, but once stopped, it won't ask again (till you SR).
other srvices
I use mail2web's free services and it works great and you cant beat the price and there is not that big of a deal with a delay of a few minuts or less and it is push hope this helps after HR
I just use bbconnect 2.x
works fine without those annoying 2 points you mentioned
in my experience, if your company only supports BES, then it is best to carry a blackberry device. the only way around this is if your email admin would be willing to set up a forwarder for your account. using a service like mail2web is ok, but only if you can get that exchange / groupwise forwarder set up.
Hey, new here but i hear this is the best place to come for advice so i thought i would give it a shot.
I am getting several errors when trying to use the social networks on the HD2
Twitter
It lets me log in but hwne i update it says my account is forbidden to access the twitter server, but everthing is fine if i sign in using a browser :S
Facebook
comes up that my username or password is incorrect when i know for a fact it is not.
Youtube
Says "There was a connection error while attempting to login"
I have tried it on wifi, edge, 3g, hdpsa and nothing works. I am on o2 an have a unlimited usage contract. Please help.
Had these when I first got my phone. All was set right after a reset (pop the battery out or hold down hang-up button)
Also, probably be a good idea to make sure you are logged out of all of those accounts in any browsers before signing in on your phone?
Outside of that... not sure.
add this to it: Nimbuzz
I can't connect over gprs or 3g. I'm on vodafone NL and i have disabled proxies and even created an experimented with new accespoints, but no luck. O even looked up in the registry to see if there is something that can be changed. I can only connect trough wifi.
Is anybody experiencing the same? It might be as well that vodafone blocks nimbuzz, but can they do that? legaly i mean.

I tried this and it does not work. Also i tried a complete reset and still nothing
Anyone have any ideas? this is really annoying
I turned off all connections before walking into a building on my college campus today since I know I receive no service there. When I walked out I tried turning on my connections and now am getting ZERO SERVICE. When I try to connect it says: "The answering modem has disconnected. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings."
I've tried resetting but it keeps giving me the same message. I performed several soft resets and even removed the battery a couple of times. The phone works fine, I am just not receiving any connection service.
Does anybody have an ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks!

What about bettery? I met same problem once, since my battery is low. After recharging battery, everything back to normal.
still not working
no, i removed the battery several times as well. Its not the phone apparently. I took it to two T-Mo stores and both couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. They gave me new sim cards, and it still would not connect. Tried sim cards in different phones and it wouldnt connect on those phones either. So now i have to wait because it can take up to 2 hours for a new sim card to work :/
First, what ROM are you running? Second, have you tried a hard reset?
If all else fails, then warranty exchange it.
~Jasecloud4.
Havent done a hard reset yet since they told me it could take up to 2 hours for the network to pick up my new sim card. And I am running ROM Version 2.13.531.1
Since your sim wouldn't work in the other phones, it's either the sim or some issue with account-level settings.
Thats what I'm thinking. I just did a hard reset and took my phone back to default settings hoping that it would fix the issue, but it didn't help at all. I'm going to go back to T-Mobile this afternoon and try to see what is up with my sim card. Being phoneless for 2 days is horrible

Try this before you return it because mine has done this a few times. I never tried hard resetting it to fix it.
Go into start setting wireless controls. then click on the left side of the data connection box, not on the switch. That will bring up the connections screen. click Manage existing connections then it will show Tmobile data. click edit, then just ok or next through all of the screens. on the last screen it will be blank for username and password or whatever, but that's ok. just click ok or next.
Now try to enable your data connection..
I know this sounds dumb, but humor me because it works for me every time.
Tried doing that, but now when I try to connect it states: "Cannot Connect: The answering modem has disconnected."

The fact that it changed something makes me think that Tmobile needs to go in and update the information...
The message you are getting now is exactly what I get. Try to do it one more time for kicks and see if it connects. If not, take it into Tmobile and see if they know the credentials needed to set that up manually.
Yeah, T-Mobile couldn't figure out what the issue was with my account/simcards/phone. So they are going to ship me a brand new HD2
Hi everyone,
Maybe someone else had experience the same symptoms, and may direct me to the proper place to solve the issue...
every so often TMO HD2 will "forget" any settings, including my e-mail settings... sometime will even "forget" my address book entries...
so usually when tmo hd2 will forget the e-mail settings, next morning it will also forget all of the address book entries - the cell phone will look just like "pristine", never used device.
I've tried to update the ROM, but have not really found the one i like. I'm not 100% sure whenever the same issue will persist with another ROM.
Any ideas anyone?
