If your mobile phone is lost or stolen you can inform your cell phone provider with your IMEI number. Your cell phone provider can then put the serial number on a shared database. This list stops this particular phone from registering on any network and will be useless for anyone even if the mobile phone's SIM card is changed. Your best bet is to ring your cell phone and hope the person who answers your cell phone will return your phone to you. Otherwise I suggest you contact your cell phone provider ASAP.

You will need to contact your service provider to purchase/enable call blocking – they will provide you with a password for the set-up listed above (which, by the way, I lifted directly from my Curve – must give credit where it is due!).

Yes. I used to do that before 3G became popular.
The Dial Code depends on the country and carrier. I used *666#
Set Up a Dial-up Connection
You'll need to set up a dial-up connection on your Windows machine to use the BlackBerry modem. When you installed the BlackBerry Desktop Manager, it should have automatically installed the modem drivers to use with your device, and you should have a modem called "Standard Modem" in the Phone andModem Options section of your Control Panel. The drivers are located in the following folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\Modem Drivers. Use the following steps to set up your connection:
Connect your BlackBerry to your computer using the standard USB cable that came with your device and start the BlackBerry Desktop Manager software.
Go to the Control Panel, then Network Connections, and select Create a New Connection.
Select Connect to the Internet, then Set up my connection manually, then Connect using a dial-up modem, and select your BlackBerry modem from the device list.
Choose a descriptive name for the ISP Name (e.g., BlackBerry Modem Connection).
Enter the phone number for your service provider. You'll probably have to check with your carrier to get the right number. For Cingular and other GSM carriers (AT&T, T-Mobile), it's *99#. For CDMA providers (Sprint, Verizon), the number will be #777.
The username and password will vary by carrier as well. Cingular just accepts null values for both fields.
Complete the wizard, being sure to deselect the "Make this the default connection" checkbox.
Sounds like a corrupted update or incompatible apps. Try reinstalling the affected apps. If they now work then that is your best solution. Since you didn't specify your phone make/model the only other choice would be a reset *NOTE you will probably lose all data and contacts*. Then update the software and then install any apps

Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC. You can even use a different carriers OS package by simply inserting, between steps 1 and 2, the deletion, on your PC, of a file named VENDOR.XML. Be sure that you remove, from your PC, any other BB device OS packages as having more than one installed to the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:
