I live in a major metro area and reception was always good, however this morning my phone was off network and was not able to connect

I do not know who to blame ATT or rainy weather

Did you try the battery pull trick?

LaPerla · 03-15-2009, 07:42 PM

and it did not help
teh phone searches for service and then I get "no service" message

Try re-seating your SIM card (remove it and re-insert it).

I tried this trick, and even inserted the other SIM.

Have you dropped it lately? Exposure to moisture?

Maybe a call to your carrier is needed.

I did not drop it, no moisture. The phone is unlocked, so I am not tied up to a carrier. I went to BB repair shop, they are going to test it. Can I return it the RIM as it is unlocked? I used it for a month and it quit

You might need to update/reinstall the OS. Sometimes a persistent lack of network is a sign of corruption in the OS but not enough corruption to give you the 507 Error screen or completely crash the BB. Just enough to screw with the BB's ability to find a network.
