Re: BB8830 Software Upgrade
I would think that your issue is your data plan. Do you have a BlackBerry data plan and not a generic data plan?

Re: BB8830 Software Upgrade
What is a decent data plan? Is it a Blackberry Data Plan?

Re: BB8830 Software Upgrade
I just had a look at Yahoo and GTalk in AppWorld. Your device and OS are supported, so I would suspect either you don't have a BlackBerry Data Plan, or it is not provisioned properly. I would suggest you: re-send service books, do a battery pull. If that doesn't work then call your provider.
