Blackberry Rim Error: 373.......HELP!!!!

Trying to find out if anyone can help me with this problem:
I have a Blackberry 7290 that displays an error message "error 373" it also displays "reset" at the bottom. The indicator light is lit continueously red and I'm trying to find out how I can upload my stored information from this Blackberry to my new phone - the Blackberry Bold.

Hello afterhours!!!

Is seems funny but according to blackberry customers , seems the error is fixed by dropping down the phone on a floor!!!
Not sure about the solution .. But y not give a try on a carpet floor!!

Hi Anand

Practically speaking i spent 3 hours looking for your solution but nothing much even the BB intelectuals failed .Try these steps out it may resolve the issue and lets hope for the best .

This error : 373 : Device Error means that the Timers are corroupted

1. Remove the battery for at least 5 minute.
2. Make sure u have working SIM card, other wise remove the old SIM.
3.You should receive an Hour glass spinning. Give a few minutes, after that u will see a 507 message on the bb screen, (which means there is no app loaded on the bb)
4.If this dosent work
Use application loader to wipe handheld clean and reinstall base software but do backup your data

And please let me know .

the device is nuked! i have lots laying around with same error and i use them for parts! the device is nuked has hardware errors even if you re install the os it still will error out!

what button answers the phone

for that problem you should re-install the blackberry system for your pda and it would work! good luck!

Take the battery out of the phone and look at the model in there. It sounds like a 7290, but I am not sure. I am looking at a blackberry just like the one you describe.

I can suggest you go to www.blackberry.com and download the version for desktop manager and re-install your blackberry operating software...

Good luck!

Bang your device hard on the floor a few times and it will come back to life. Seriously!
I REALLY threw it down hard, and then now, after the revolving hourglass for Many many minutes, it's back up and running.
