Hello people,

I have purchased a Blackberry Curve 8320 from Overseas and am using it in Auckland, NZ. I have already got it unlocked from the official Vodafone store.

Recently, I got the Vodafone data plan ($10 for 100MB) and have started using my phone to browse the net. It does not have 3G but its got a GPRS connection that i use.

If i use the in-built browser, I am able to browse the internet perfectly and can check my gmail, facebook etc etc  and everything works fine. However, if i try using an application for the same job (I downloaded some gmail and facebook apps from the net) it does not work.

It repeatedly gives the error "this service requires an active data connection. Please contact your service provider if problem persists", even though my phone does have an active data connection.

Can you pelase help me out?
