I ran into a unique error today on a colleague’s Verizon blackberry world phone. It was reporting that it was in SOS mode after he had run down the batter. After attempting the regular removing the battery, pulling the SIM card and reseating it (remember that it is a world phone so it has one) and rebooting several times I found that the network setting had been set to GSM only mode. After setting it back to world mode everything worked fine and disaster was averted
