Broke the screen on my 9700 yesterday and have switched to my old 8100 and am constantly getting 502 error so maybe it is because bis is out?

I've been having major issues receiving emails, BBM's and connecting to internet during certain times of the day on wifi and mobile network but I'm not sure if this has anything to do with BIS? Orange mobile, Torch Device, Liverpool.

Posted by Migi-B Wednesday, Jun 08, 2011 352 days ago

I think here (Portugal) also, although my original carrier is Dutch (Vodafone).
Since I updated (Bold 9700) from OS 5.0.0.862 to OS 6.0.0.546 yesterday (June 7) I cannot reinstall my email accounts ("no accounts activated"), BBM seems not to work, cannot login on Windows Live Messenger or Facebook, BlackBerry Protect - through only my Wifi network, as I don't wan't to roam. But these worked fine in OS 5 before.

 
 
Posted by wocampb Wednesday, Jun 08, 2011 352 days ago

It is interesting. After I read this I stopped getting emails from two of my accounts, including my work account. I am still getting emails from the rest, as well as texts (I think).

Never had a Problem With My BB Im On O2 UK everythings been fine WiFi and BIS

 
 
Posted by Fazer9700 Wednesday, Jun 08, 2011 352 days ago

BIS went down for me last night at around 9pm but came back around 2am, browsing the internet was really slow, BBM's did not even bother sending until the service was back up and Facebook was practically unusable. I got some ridiculous broadcast messages from my bbm contacts saying that BIS had been hacked and that I would need to send some 10 digit code to all my contacts to get it working again, I LOL'D so hard. However I've noticed since the service has come back BIS seems to be working alot faster. I'm on Tmobile UK in London btw.

 
 
Posted by redrumsilence Wednesday, Jun 08, 2011 352 days ago

Whoever the retard who wrote that BC has no idea about the BB community, gotta love that apparently, RIM only has 1 CEO: Jim Balsamic LOL that's not even the guys name, it's Balsilie :s plus no mention of Mr. Lazaridis, so not impressed...

 
 
Posted by redrumsilence Wednesday, Jun 08, 2011 352 days ago

9800, 9780 & 8900 there was an outage on o2-UK (3G), Vodafone UK (EDGE) and Orange Uk (3G) between 0100-0430 GMT, but no issues with my PlayBook at all :)

I had issues to access BIS yesterday, all day long. I´m from Brasil. Since I did a hard reset (pull batery) all came back to normal.

 
 
Posted by Izabela07 Wednesday, Jun 08, 2011 352 days ago

BIS is so redundant technology. I'm gonna ditch my BB to the next gen. iPhone. iOS 5 is very impressive and I don't have to pay for email, messaging and calendar syncing any fees. I can use all those things through 3G or WiFi without paying fees to Apple like I'm paying now to RIM though I use pre paid BB without any contract.

 
 
Posted by parked Wednesday, Jun 08, 2011 352 days ago

Um, I hate to tell you this, but with the iPhone, you will still have to pay for all that stuff. It's called a "data plan." Good luck trying to find a pre-paid, fully-functioning iPhone5 without any contract.

Some people are so dumb.

 
 
Posted by tobit2lux Wednesday, Jun 08, 2011 352 days ago

It is not a question to be dumb or not, but a problem of provider.

I have both BB and iPhone. For my BB, I have to pay a "BIS option" [9€] + "data plan" [15€] to receive mails. For my iPhone, I'm just paying the "data plan" [15€] to read my mails.

Lucky you, if your provider allows you an unlimited traffic with only your "BIS option", but it is not the case everywhere!

The response from O2 in the UK is that RIM are aware of the problem and have said service will be restored this evening

Sporadic service in Southern England for me on Torch 9800 with Orange and my girlfriend with Bold 9780 on Vodafone.

Mine has been playing up for the last 36 hours, sometime works slowly, sometimes not at all. Sometimes some apps work and others don't, sometimes works on Wi-Fi, sometimes on mobile network.

There's no set pattern to it but I've not long got off the phone to Orange and they still have no time for a resolution as yet.
