Dear Tether,

I have a Blackberry Tour 9630
OSv 5.0.0.624
Tether version: 1.1.0.6
Computer OS: Windows 7 Home Premium
Connecting with Bluetooth

The problem I would like to report is that while using Tether, sometimes the phone will just reboot. No errors just the phone reboots. This only happens when while I'm using Tether.

Thank You,

Delmar Dale

You may have to check the available memory on your phone. If there are many apps running at background, you may have to close some apps that is not in use and make the room in order for Tether to run properly.

I also have a 9630 Tour with OS 5.0 and have experienced the same issue since Tether ver. 1.1.0.5.

What is the free memory counts on those devices as your experienced constant reboot?

89 MB on apps and over 700 MB on mem card. I believe there have been some minor bugs introduced since the release of 1.1.0.5, as I am also experiencing some issues with my 8330 curve as well, (though the issue is not the same as i have replied to another post to someone who is having the same issue on his curve).

I know I have around 85mb on the device, and like 5GB on the SD card.

Also the only apps running besides the one's you can't close, is gtalk, and aim.

You can try an older Tether revision, you will be asked if you want to update each time you launch Tether. Select No.

Could you first uninstall Tether by following these steps from your BlackBerry:

1) Click Options -> Advanced Options -> Applications

2) Highlight the Tether in the list of applications

3) Press the BlackBerry Menu button

4) Select Delete

5) Remove battery from your BlackBerry for one minute, replace battery and let device boot

Once the Tether application has been uninstalled and your device has rebooted, install Tether again by visiting the following link through the default BlackBerry Browser:

Tether for BlackBerry (version 1.1.0.4) = http://tether.com/t/backups/1.1.0.4/tether.jad
