Thread: Who has trackball problems?

Didn't work as well for me, mine still stalls and skips lines in text. Guess I'll swap it tomorrow. I had set it to 80-80 a few days ago hoping that would work.

Cruz did you try my trick? Worked wonders for my trackball.

I gave it a shot to no avail. I just got off the phone with Verizon, they are saying it is a known software issue, and that RIM has promised a software update to correct the issue. Verizon further states that said software release is promised within 30 days of the Tour release date.

My question is, those that have replaced the device and the issue was corrected, would it not be hardware related?

They are calling it a software issue, hmm, would love to believe that. I had my device replaced yesterday because of the battery door and the trackball works fine. So that would lead me to believe it's hardware not software.

I need to call and get a replacement for mine as well. Ever since my 3 year old threw it at the ground it has been shotty at best :lmao:

Verizon replaced the device, loose battery door and Trackball have been corrected.

Got to love Big Red at: I called today and ordered my replacement no issues. After he said it was on the way I asked if it was a refurb or new phone. He stated refurb and I told him shouldn't it be a new phone being under 30 days an all? He said have you had it for less than 30 days at:

So this is the kicker he couldn't cancel the order so I have to wait till I get the phone then ship it back, wait till they receive then call and get a new one :angryfire:

I'd be pretty upset with the rep and make sure his boss knows it. In fact, I'm about to go do that with Comcrap.
