Default Blackberry newbie that knows nothing!! :(

Please Login to Remove!

Hi,

My OH bought me a blackberry Pearl 8120, a few days ago. The most i;ve done with it is turned it on & connected it to my broadband (I think).

I'm totally new to Blackberry never had such a advanced phone before. I'm not sure where to go from here in setting it up & getting the best from it. My work tryed connecting my emails to it, But it says im not registered?? When i try and register it fails again.

Can anyone guide me on how to get the most of my Pearl?

sounds like a shady wireless provider...If you go to Options>Advanced Options>Host Routing Table> and click the Blackberry or (menu) button and click the trackball on Register Now, what happens?

sending the hosting routing table bit WONT work untill the orange BIS is setup, put your £10 top up on that you normally 'have to buy' with handset
then phone customer services and get them to add on the £5 a month BIS package, you will then get several messages and your hosting table will be filled in
c/s = 450 or 453

Yes, because the data for BIS will also be PAYG, therefore needs credit to work.
