Why won't my radio stay on even though I know I'm in a valid coverage area?

Document: Q1089

If your Blackberry radio won't stay on even though you're in a valid coverage area follow the procedure below.

Remove the battery cover from the back of your Blackberry.
Using a paperclip, push the recessed 'Reset' button to reset your Blackberry.
Put the battery cover back on.
Once the Blackberry comes back up, click Options.
Click Network (or Network Settings).
Click to pull down the drop-down menu and click Register Now. (You should receive an email message indicating that you were successfully registered on your providers network. If you don't, contact your cellular carrier.)
1. NOTE: Some newer Blackberry devices don't have a Register Now in Network Options. Instead click on Host Routing Table in the Options screen and click Register Now on the pull-down menu.

If the radio still won't stay on, contact your cellular service provider (NexTel, Verizon, AT&T, etc).
