Kate asked us,
I upgraded my Blackberry OS after following the instructions to install the Zen theme. The theme is neat but after awhile I found out I was missing my browser. Thinking it was something to do with the theme, I switched back to my old theme and my browser is still missing! Any ideas?
This is actually a common occurrence when upgrading the operating system on the Blackberry handheld. It is an easy fix for the most part, just do the following:
1. Options –> Advanced Options –> Host Routing Tables.
2. In this screen you may see several entries, ignore the others and highlight the bold entry.
3. Wheel-click and select ‘Register Now’.
4. Close the screen and go back to the Home Screen. Give about 30 seconds for your browser to reappear.

Thanx
WHAT is a “Wheel-click”?
Needless to say, I’m new to the BlackBerry. When I click the trackball on the bold entry, I get a description of the CDMA entry, but no option to “register now”.
Easy Lloyd,
First tell us what type of CDMA BlackBerry you are using, and what else you see besides the description.
Also, what BlackBerry OS are you using (i.e. what version number?)
THANK YOU! You saved me from hours and hours of work.
Using BlackBerry 8700g and installed the upgrade OS. The install crashed, but was able to restore data from backup (VERY IMPORTANT TO SAVE). After which, the new OS looks rather cool, but I was missing the browser.
THANKS AGAIN.
GENIUS! thank you! I tried for an hour to get the browser back and finally resulted to google.
I can’t see the browser for the internet and I try to do what you said on this sitge but the icon didn’t appear. I also have a error message that appear in the help button WHAT CAN I DO ??? I need the browser…PLEASE HELP ME

I have a blackberry 8700G.
I went to options and under advanced options.
I clicked on Host Routing Table.
There are no entries in the HRT Editor.
my list is blank,
what can i do?
Now, I can NOT get the web browser.
Please help.
thanks
Kattalien/James -
If your list is blank, click the Blackberry button, sometimes I call it right-clicking, to bring up the options. You’ll see the option to register there!

Amazing fix! My first 8100 got smashed, so I got another one and had no browser, tried EVERYTHING! Never would have figured that out!!! Thank you so so so much! Now if I could just figure out my enterprise activation info I’ll be set…
I have the same problem that Kattalien had. I tried to fix it per your directions but nothing happened. I have a pearl from At&T, the mediamall is also missing. Please help. I can’t browse or receive multimedia messages.
I TRIED REGISTERING THROUGH HRT AND IT SAID THAT REGISTRATION WAS SENT.WAITED AND STILL DID NOT SEE ANY BROWSER ICON.ALL I SEE ON MY HOME SCREEN IS DATA CONNECTION REFUSED.PLS HELP.
@tony
You need to have your service provider send you the service books again. Go to Options->Advanced->Service Books. You can delete all the books except the provisioning one which should be locked. After you delete them first try to register the HRT. If that doesn’t work (and sometime it doesn’t work for me) either login to the blackberry services for your phone and send the service books from there or call your service rep and have them do it. You may have to wait for 30 - 60 minutes (my experience) before you have everything again.
The other thing I’ve noticed is that if you have a password set in security, the browser can get screwy. This is the technical term meaning you should disable the password to test and see if it comes back. A battery removal reset might be in order if no immediate results occur but don’t forget to turn off the phone first before doing that.

I tried the quick fix to relocate/enable my bowser and when I got into the Host Routing Table page, it was blank. What does that mean?
is the medianet browser same as the blackberry browser? i tried to look for the blackberry browser and did the hrt suggestion and i got a message saying i was registered but no new browser icon appeared… so.. is there something wrong? im on the unlimited data plan for blackberry. thanks
hi im trying to also locate my browser and i did wat u suggested but its not working for me, wat else shud i do
plz help
Thanks so much! This actually worked. I had spent an 1 hour on the phone with tech support, then another hour in the Verizon store and no one could fix it. They told me that the only thing they could do was ship me another phone. So I decided to google it and luckily found this site. Verizon Wireless customer service, wireless data support, and in-store technicians suck!
I dosen’t work for me cause my Host Routing Table is empty and even if i register it never sends me the message! I even have a video on YouTube if you know how to fix this problem please!!! HELP ME!
