8110 Wont Power On - Battery symbol with Line through it

Hi, I have a Blackberry 8110 that I have just bought from a second hand shop. When plugged in the phone doesnt appear to charge and has a faint battery icon on the screen with a line through it. It has been charging for about 5 hours now and i have tried the reccommendation of removing the battery with plugged into USB and still doesnt work. I have also used a spare fully charged blackberry battery which also doesnt work. Any ideas?
Thanks

I found out what the problem was. I had installed Norton Internet Utilities. When the subscription expired I tried to uninstall it using the provided uninstaller. That did not delete all of the files and this was causing the start up problems. Since I followed the following instructions (link below) and downloaded and ran the program issued by Symantec (the company who makes Norton) It solved all the problems I was having. I suggest if you had the same issue as me just after uninstalling Norton this will correct the problems!

8800, battery symbol with red line through it. Won't boot. Please help!!!

I recently bought a 8800 and when I inserted a battery, all I got was a battery symbol with a red line through it on a dim screen. I changed batteries, tried to charge it via USB and from a wall outlet to no avail. I tried cleaning the contacts and tried uploading t a new OS, but it wont recognize the phone being connected when it actually is.    I am at the end of my rope with this phone and can't figure out what else to do. Is it just gone? Please help me
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Leave the device to charge 2-3 hours, and then, still connected to the USB cable, remove the the battery from the device a few seconds and reinsert it. If it boots--leave it to charge to 100% (check Options > Status for the percentage).
If it doesn't boot--try using a wall outlet charger if you are not. If you are connected via USB to the PC, make certain that you have Desktop Manager (or the USB device drivers) installed, which you can download below.

Battery symbol with red line thru it

how do you fix the blackberry with a battery symbol with a red line thru it?

Try this first:
Leave the device to charge 2-3 hours, and then, still connected to the USB cable, remove the the battery from the device a few seconds and reinsert it. If it boots--leave it to charge to 100% (check Options > Status for the percentage).
If it doesn't boot--try using a wall outlet charger if you are not. If you are connected via USB to the PC, make certain that you have Desktop Manager (or the USB device drivers) installed, which you can download below.
Make certain your USB cable is connected to one of the PC's main rear USB ports. Not a USB hub, nor a monitor USB port, nor a USB port on the front of the PC.
Download Desktop Manager from here:

Touchpad Dead - Battery symbol with Questionmark

Help! my Touchpad 32gb will not boot!
I've let it charge for several days. Pressing:
Power button = nothing
Power + hold center button = Battery symbol with questionmark
Power + up vol. = nothing
(I've tried all these combinations with it plugged in and as a stand-alone with no power cord)
I've used several chargers, including multiple touchstones, and several OEM HP round wall chargers to no avail.
I have two touchpads (1 for me , 1 for my child) and all chargers work with the other touchpad.
Any ideas on how to bring this back to life?
When it died, it had been sitting on a touchstone, but slightly off center such that I don't think it charged properly.
Post relates to: Tungsten E2

A user reported recently he was instructed to hold the power switch and then press the center button quickly about 15 times in a row. Might give this a try.

And yet many of us are very happy with our touchpads! I have two of them, both dual-booting into either ICS or webOS. I'm running programs that make iPad owners jealous.
Only problem I've had is a crack by the speaker... Sorry the two of you have become so jaded.

I am unable to tell when the battery is completely charged. I have showing the battery symbol with the bolt-this is present even when the device is not being charged. And it is always showing 2% charge.

Are you using the AC wall charger?
To check status, I use System Activity Monitor app http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/system-activity-monitor/id306192663?mt=8 and System Status Lite app http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/system-status-lite-device/id407752428?mt=8

Ost 5 hours and has just a battery symbol with a little red column on the screen when I press the on/off button. I don't know why its taking so long to charge. Any suggestions?

My iPod 5th generation died and I charged it. It has been charging for almost 5 hours and just displays a battery symbol with a column of red when the on/off button is pressed. My home button also doesn't work so I cannot try to reset it that why. Any suggestions?

Not Charge

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Given what you describe, I think you've done all of the diagnostics that you can...kudo's to you for having thought to try what you did! But, what it indicates is a hardware-level problem in the BB itself, somehow not communicating properly with the battery. For this, only a qualified service technician with the BB in their hands can diagnose any further...and that can't be done at an internet-distance.
If your BB is still under warranty, then take it in for evaluation. Your warranty service provider is whoever you bought the BB from -- your mobile network provider or your authorized reseller would be who you go talk to next.
If your BB is out of warranty, then you can talk to those same folks about other options.
Good luck!

Something is messed up with the Disk.
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

Trying to download version 4. Symbol appears with line through it , and I can't install it. Will not work. Have a mac os X version 10.4.

I was trying to upgrade my version of Firefox. Downloaded the new one, got rid of old one as it said could not install because old one existed. Now cannot use either. Firefox circle has line through it.

For to use Firefox 4.0 and newer you need both Intel and OSX 10.5 or newer.
Either you can use the 3.6.17 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html or use a third-party build of Firefox 4.0 from http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
note there is no actual 4.0.2 as they decided to get ahead with their own build.

Macbook pro wont start up-start up screen has a circle with line through it

When i turn my computer on it goes to the login screen, when i type in my password, an apple pops up on a grey screen, the computer thinks for a few minutes then a circle with a diagonal line through it pops up. Im hoping there is a way to fix this issue without loosing all of my data. i just got a hard drive but havent had a chance to back everything up yet. i know i signed up for some kind of back up with apple where they gave me a key # that i needed to save. i have that number but im really not sure what it is or how to use it. PLEASE HELP!

MBP hangs after login screen with Circle with line through it

Recently, my MBP (Model A1278, MB990LL/A) started doing the "folder with blinking question mark" at start up as if it couldn't find the startup disk.
I held Option at startup and chose the Macintosh HD that it found. After selecting, it brings me to my username/login. I type in the PW and hit enter and the screen turns gray and I see the Apple logo in the middle with spinning gear below it. (All good so far, as this sequence is the same sequence as my other MBP). After about 1min of gear spinning though, the Apple logo changes to a Circle with a line through it. It never logs in and I never see the desktop.
Troubleshooting I've done:
1. Pulled out the HDD, plugged it up to my OTHER MBP and ran Disk Utility on the whole drive. Found no errors.
2. Put the HDD in question in my OTHER MBP and booted into my user account just fine. All the way to Desktop, no problems.
3. Took my WORKING HDD from my OTHER MBP and put it in the MBP in question and tried to boot, did the same thing. Circle with line after logging in.
4. Tried to run Apple Hardware Test from boot cd by holding D but nothing happens. Just gray screen to infinity.
5. Replaced the trackpad from my OTHER MBP just for fun
Any ideas? I'm usually pretty good at this stuff, but this one has me stumped.
Thank you!!!

No luck. I can't do a Safe Reboot, nor can I reset the NVRAM/PRAM. When I power on either 1 of 2 things happen. A) Nothing, grey screen until folder with flashing question mark or B) When it decides to, it finds my HDD and goes to login screen but after entering pw and hitting submit, I get the Apple logo for a minute then replaces with a Circle w/ Line.
Can't hold Shift at reboot, can't hold c to boot from DVD (have to hold Option and choose DVD), can't hold D and boot the Apple Hardware Test DVD.
Does anyone know of a way to reset the NVRAM/PRAM manually? Is there a CMOS battery like on a windows PC or something similar that I can remove to reset? Command+Option+P+R does not work, it reads that I've pressed Option and gives me the Startup Disk Manager screen to select a drive to boot from.
Thanks
