Blackberry Storm2 - brand new took at Hazlet,NJ Verizon Store - not working since 2nd day!

I bought this nice BB Storm2 GSM Phone from one of the direct Verizon's own stores in Hazlet, NJ (Route 35), because I was in need of making calls from abroad to US and other places on business and personal calls.  The unit was working fine on the 1st day, and while I was traveling on the 2nd day in Paris - it simply stopped working!...
(* I have a small bit of ditsy/bitsy doubt that they gave me an old one...But I am not sure...and now I cannot even prove it to them! - but don't know what to do and get exchange for a brand new - sealed one!
First, I thought the battery must have drained out (although I was suspicious because I just charged fully the day I bought it and I hardly made a few calls only).  
Then, I  took the battery out and  cleaned and waited for some time...3-5 minutes...and then I put it back. It did not make any difference. 
The phone seems to be kind of getting some charge..The screen is trying to light itself showing the bottom buttons as if they are ready to operate...But the screen is completely blank...nothing is coming no matter what button I press...
I tried several time regarding the battery exercise...But still nothing has changes..My cell is just 2 days old..And this high-tech...freaking device is giving me problems.  Now I am traveling all over the places and I don't even have any phone. 
Shame on BB,...Very poor quality! They look pretty ,..but don't deliver real service
Dont know what do do and get help from Verizon. Any body can shed some light...what to do if I am outside the US on a business trip. 

Try this, put a small strip of something like a Manila folder cut to battery's thickness so you can get the bat. door back on the back edge of battery and see if that creates enough pressure on bat. to work.  I remember a problem when the S2 first came out that the battery's were a hair to short and kept causing the S2 to reboot.

  • HT1369 Brand new computer with Windows 8.1 will not sync with iPod Classic 120G.  Windows does not recognize anything but iPod Touch?  Is there a simple sloution?

    Brand new computer with Windows 8.1 will not sync to iPod Classic 120G.  Windows does not recognize anything but iPod Touch?  Is there a simple solution.  Diagnostics have run and failed to point to a fix.

    Might be worth tearing down the whole iTunes install and starting over...
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • Brand new iPad mini 32GB LTE (Verizon) purchased on 1/7/13 is constantly crashing while on Safari and other apps.

    Brand new iPad mini 32GB LTE (Verizon) purchased on 1/7/13 is constantly crashing while on Safari and other apps. Anyone have any suggestions on what I should do besides restoring it and rebooting it as I have already done so. Should i exchange it at the apple store for a new one? Any suggestions? Im still under the 14 day return policy.

    Returning it is a way to go, obviously. Unless that's quick and convenient enough for you, you may try resetting it to factory settings first under Settings -> General -> Reset.
    A new setup and sync (not restoring, to avoid the cause of the problem coming over again) might fix it once and forever.

    I bought Adobe Elements 12; I cannot use panorama photomerge, I have followed the directions to go to Full Edit  mode in edit workspace> choose File> New> Photomerge. However the Photomerge does not work, it does not respond.
    The only thing I can come up with is that I found a blog that said that in the Trial version Photomerge does not work, however I do Not have the Trial version, I did at one time but I purchase Adobe Elements. Thank you.

    The blog was incorrect. Photomerge should work in the trial, too.

    Hi, I have now got ne new wireless keyboard because my old one broke. I connected the keyboard, the F3 key (Mission Control) functions, the F4 key, especially for Lunchpad does not work, I'm Lion on it, previously on the old keyboard I had in 2009, he occupiedwith Launchpad F5.

    Maybe someone can help me!!
    Thank you
    greeting

    Hi,
         Your migration to Lion brought over a previous hot key preferences document. And this contains one bad key that wasn't updated.
    - Quit System Preferences (if open)
    - Delete this document to remove a carry-over mapping error.
    - Then logout
    Note: That this will delete any existing modified keyboard assignments. Re-assign changes manually.
    Note2: This document is in your users preferences folder.

  • After updating to iOS 5, my Iphone 4 is not reading my SIM Card.  I went to ATT and got a brand new SIM Card, and it still hasn't worked. Can you help??

    After updating my iphone 4 to iOS 5, it refused to read my att SIM Card.  I went to the Apple store (Lennox Mall, Atlanta Georgia) for help, they told me that it was an Att problem, and needed me to get a brand new Sim Card from Att.  I went to Att and replaced my SIM Card to a new one.  I later returned to the Apple store, but the phone still didn't work.  The apple techs blamed the att network, and stated I needed to go home and wait for 24-48 hrs, and retry the att network again, and hopefully the phone will work.  The next option they gave me was to pay $200.00 to get a replacement because my phone was out of warranty.
    So I basically I have a phone which has never been dropped, not abused, no water damage or what so ever.  Prior to my IOS 5 update, it worked perfectly without any problems.  Now, that its not working as a result of either Apple's or Att's fault, no one seems to be helping or standing behing their product.  Both parties are blaming each other for the problem.  Can someone help??

    I've seen a number of reports of this on here. In most cases where people took their phones in to the Apple store, they were given a replacement, even if the phone was out of warranty.

  • Printing errors with BRAND NEW Envy 4500 printer!!! Not happy.

    I've tried all the troubleshooting info available on the web. I even installed "HP print doctor". What is happening is that ALL of my test pages are printing fine but NONE of my jobs are printing to completion. If it's a 2 line document, sure. But more than one page or even a long page? Forget it. I get an error on my computer that the print job failed. It cancels itself and then ejects the paper or gets stuck and the printer is perpetually stuck in "printing" mode and I have to manually cancel it. It really took a lot of energy to set this up so I really don't want to pack this thing up and ship it back but I sure as heck will and I'll never buy another HP printer again. The last one had faulty software too and I had to find a hack on the internet to fix it which basically meant removing the wireless hardware from the machine. It worked but I am not doing this on a brand new printer. Give me a fix, please.

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand that you are having some sleep mode issues with your HP Envy 4500. I am happy to look into this for you!  Some questions for you:  How is your printer connected? Wireless, or USB?Are you using Genuine HP Ink Cartridges, or refills? Are you able to make copies with your printer? Copying Documents. In the meantime, I would suggest a hard reset, by going to this post, How to perform a Hard Reset, by . It is important that your printer's power cable is plugged directly into the wall outlet, and not a surge protector. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well. Then, I would double-check the printer's firmware is up-to-date. Getting Printer Updates for HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3540, 4640, HP ENVY 4500, and HP Officejet 4630 e-All-in-One Printer Series. We will start with these two steps, and see what happens!  Hope to hear from you soon!  “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

  • I just bought a brand new iPhone 4s from a Three store. When I used the cloud restore to put the data from my old 3gs onto the device, it's prompting me for an Apple ID login with an email address that isn't mine!

    I just got a brand new iPhone 4S on a contract from my local Three store. When I used the cloud restore to put the data from my old 3GS onto the device, it's prompting me for an Apple ID login with an email address (hotmail) that isn't mine! My old phone has NEVER had any Apple ID other than mine log into it, and the new one's a sealed box that I've opened and set up from scratch. Can anyone please explain this? I'm worried there's some kind of problem with my iCloud data being mixed with someone else's or something... Since I logged in with my own ID, it's downloaded the data perfectly fine, but I just got the Apple ID prompt again a moment ago with this same hotmail address in it... I'd be very grateful for any explanation!

    In iTunes on your computer, select the Purchased section under STORE in the left column. Click on the first track and choose "Get Info" from the "File" menu.
    In the "Summary" tab you'll see details of the purchaser of the track. Click Next to go through all your purchased music one by one until you find the ones you need to get rid of.
    Unfortunately, there are no smart playlist rules that can filter tracks by the purchaser that I know of.

  • A355D S6921 brand new seems slow and on vista 32 not 64

    Hello to all. I just bought this Toshiba A355D series from HHGreg. It has 3G ram, 250G HHD, and a 2.0Ghz AMD Turion X2 64 dual core processor running Windows Vista home premium. My desktop that i got awhile ago has 2G ram and a AMD 2.1 dual core running XP Pro SP3... Logical thinking would say the brand new laptop should be faster with its more memory or at least equivalent but this thing is SLOW. It has a hard time with the simplest multitasking and locks up every time i click on a different program. It takes forever to browse different internet pages and God forbid i open up another program while doing it... Why is it running soo slow? Also it's suppost to have the 64 bit config I thought but the system checks on the computer all say it's running 32 bit. Why is that? It says 64 right the front of the laptop? any ideas or solutions would be great. Thank you

    Sorry I can't answer any of your important questions.  But I just checked the spec sheet for your exact model, and (right or wrong) it states that your laptop comes with Vista 32bit, not 64.  Are you perhaps confusing the 64 bit processor, with the operating system?
    Also, Vista is a resource hog compared to XP, which may partially explain the slower performance, even with more RAM.
