Does anyone know what this means? When I try to connect my blackberry to my lap top I get this almost immediate disconnect that says USB thread dead. I have tried reentering the registration code- did not work. The usb connectin is there as I can open BB desktop manager with it.
Can anyone help me- I am not very computer saavy, obviously.
Thank you
USB thread dead
thank you will give that a shot
We are having the same problem on 2 different BB's with two different carriers...
A curve with ATT
A world phone with sprint.
Help someone.
Uninstall Tether from your BlackBerry by following these steps from your Smartphone:
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:
http://tether.com/tim/1.4.3.2/tether.jad
This update targets this particular issue, let me know if you receive any errors please.



Mine does this also. I usually just unplug the usb for a few seconds and then plug it back in. If that doesn't work i do a battery pull and that helps every time.
