Default Problems Using 8700c Unlocked on Rogers Network

Please Login to Remove!

Hi there:

I have an unlocked 8700c BB and can't seem to get it to work quite right.

I installed the SIM card from my 7290 BB, synced the 8700c with my desktop manager and everything seems to work (phone, recieve and send emails, address book) with three exceptions:

1) no matter what I do the registration does not seem to complete itself
2) I try to set the time and date, but the 8700c just sets itself
3) the calendar does not sync

I tried changing the time & date settings to Blackberry, Network and None options, but it still seems to have a mind of it's own, setting the time as it wishes.

Someone suggested I replace the Cingular firmware with the Rogers firmware to rectify these issues, but I don't know how to do this.

My questions are:

1) if replacing the firmware is the process I require, how do I do that exactly?
2) if all I need to do is fix the time & date issue, how do I do that?

Thanks,

- Eggs
