Hey folks, my wife just got a new black berry and the reception is terrible in places where it shouldn't be. Anyone else have this issue or is it a one off with that particular phone. I'm with Rogers so that doesn't help diagnose the problem, but I get good service in these same places (ie: my home). Cheers, Lucius - Thu, 14 Oct 2010 9:27am

I have a Blackberry on Rogers and I was about ready to chuck the thing as far as I possibly could, until I found that the SIM wasn't making good contact. I wedged a guitar pick (.40 mm) between the SIM and the back of the phone and presto! Thing works like a hot damn.

Only thing is, I don't think Telus use SIMs, so this may not be of much use to you.

Talk to Telus. - Thu, 14 Oct 2010 11:25am

Ya, we took it into a Telus store and they reinitialized it but that did little to nothing at all. I'll check if they use a sim card and go from there. Cheers, Lucius - Thu, 14 Oct 2010 11:36am

I found this site helpful in finding out how close I was to the nearest tower when I was trying to solve reception issues: http://www.ertyu.org/steven_nikkel/cancellsites.html?lat=48.447038&lng=-123.420231&zoom=12&type=roadmap&layers=a&pid=0 - Thu, 14 Oct 2010 4:19pm Edited: Thu, 14 Oct 2010 4:20pm

That's what you get for supporting a criminal organization like Telus. - Fri, 15 Oct 2010 7:30am

I'll take this opportunity to let you know Telus (aka Satan Incarnate) is one of the most morally and technically corrupt organizations in BC. US owned and run and proud of it. Not all US companies here suck, just Telus. - Fri, 15 Oct 2010 10:41am
