I would reccomend trying
1. removing the battery (you've probably been told this before sorry)
2.. Deleting and downloading the most up to date version of BBM
3. Deleting your service books (Options>Device>Advanced>Service Books>BB Menu>Delete)
4. Registering device on the network (OPtions.Device>Advanced>Host Routing Table>BB Menu>Register)

hopefully that works out!

I would have thought if a software update did not fix this issue that it is a fault in the hardware. Contact your network/point of purchase to see if you can get a replacement.
