9300 curve acting crazy

I am having a problem with typing messages on my 9300 curve in any application. Example: trying to type message in bbm and cursor bounces all over screen, and when you are finally able to type a letter, sometimes wierd accent marks appear above the letter. also when trying to use gsp, the page flips on you. Any advice? these problems happen sometimes, then other times it works perfectly fine. Thanks

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Best!

  • Ipad 3 acting crazy, doing things on it's own without touchng it.

    My friend's ipad 3 with retina display 32GB  is acting crazy. It switches between apps, closes/ opens apps, types, scrols, goes to home/ search and ...... by itself without even touching it. You can't think of using the ipad like this. It happens when you are using the ipad. It lasts from 10 secs to about 1-2 minutes or whatever. If you leave it for a while, it becomes normal ( you can use it) but after a while it starts acting weird again. We already restored it to latest frimware but no luck. Seems like a hardware problem to me. He said it used to become hot in the back while using it and playing heavey games(size of around 1GB). It is out of warranty now.
    Any one having same issues?
    Here's a short video clip i caught it acting crazy.

    thanks

    Take it to an Apple Store and ask them to diagnose it, there is nothing else that you can do if you already restored the iOS software, unless you didn't restore as a new device. If you didn't do that, give it a try, if that fails, make an appointment an an Apple Store Genius Bar,

  • My 9300 Curve (v5) keeps shutting down!

    My 9300 Curve (v5) shuts down every time I send an email with a picture attached, anyone have a suggestion?  It actually did it one other random time while I was writing a long email, but every time when sending a picture it definitely shuts off.  I assumed it was a memory issue, but cannot seem to figure out how to fix it or find an answer anywhere.
    Thanks

    Hi rowinchrist,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community.

  • I cannot access the Advaced Email set up screen from my 9300 Curve

    Can I talk to someone in Blackberry who can solve my email problem? Blackberry premium email team have been unable to help me for the last 5 weeks despite many attempts. Blackberry forums and BIS do not address why I cannot access the Advanced Setting screen to set POP/IMAP details for my primary email address from my phone. I have 3 other email address's working fine. I have had a 9300 Curve for the past year and this problem only occurred when updating the Blackberry software to 6.0 Bundle 2647 (V6.0.0.00 - Platform 6.6.0.223) 5 weeks ago.I am desperate for help....Jeff Dakin - 

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    So as to avoid wasting your time with redundant advice, please post EVERYTHING you have already attempted, with exactness and clarity, especially since you've already been escalated to the folks who certainly should have been able to solve it.
    Thanks.

  • 9300 Curve wifi problem - cannot connect to internet using only wifi once data turned off

    I've got a 9300 Curve with a data plan from Rogers. I want to use my wifi in hotspots when I go overseas without using my data. I have no problems connecting to wifi networks. Once I turn off my data services, my connections to the wifi network show that the signal is still just as strong, but I can't use my browser, facebook, bbm, etc. - message is "unable to connect to internet" when I try and access my browser. This problem occurs whether I'm using a public hotspot or my home router. I used to be able to access wifi without using data from Rogers on my older Curve (can't remember the model), so I don't think it has anything to do with my plan.
    Any suggestions/advice would be much appreciated!

    Thanks for the reply!
    Did you mean "leave data ON and turn off data roaming"? But that would just turn off my data while I'm roaming, and while I'm not roaming, it'll still access through data and not through wifi like I would prefer. That's what I understand, but pls correct me if I'm wrong! I guess I meant to also mention that whether I'm in my home zone or overseas, I still can't use my browser, bbm, etc through wifi only, with data turned off...it just says there's no connection to the server/internet, even though it shows that I'm connected to a wifi network.

  • Macbook pro 2010...cursor is acting crazy jumping everywhere and responding very slow...thought it was the track pad but I plugged in a mouse and it still does the same thing...is this a virus?..and can someone please help?...

    My Macbook pro is acting Crazy....the Cursor just keeps on jumping everywhere and not responding when I use the trackpad....Even when it does respond it is very slow...I thought it was the trackpad acting up but realized it wasnt when i plugged in a mouse and it still did the same thing...this happened one other time and shortly after my computer froze...I had to restart for it to work but restarting dosent help this time...can someone please help?...Is this a Virus?

    It is not a virus.  See my Mac Virus Guide*.
    As to what it might be, that's hard to say.  You should try some basic troubleshooting...  Repair the hard drive with disk utility.  Boot in safe mode and see if it happens then, log in to a different user account and see if it happens there, reboot from another system and see if it happens.
    Apparently some people have had this kind of problem caused by swelling batteries that push on the underside of the trackpad and cause all kinds of strange problems.  Is your machine's underside deformed at all?

  • [SOLVED]Mouse and keyboard acting crazy. I have to restart gdm via ssh

    Here's the output from dmesg after boot.
    http://pastebay.com/14045
    Basically, I'm getting errors from my USB mouse and keyboard.  If I wait long enough udev will find them and they'll start working.  GDM starts too fast so Xorg is stuck without keyboard and mouse.  I had to ssh and restart GDM then mouse and keyboard worked.  For the meantime I've disabled gdm in rc.conf. 
    I usually see these messages from devices that are drawing too much power from the USB power bus.
    These devices work fine in the Win32 and OSX installs on the same hardware.
    thanks ya'll

  • My mail application is acting crazy.

    When I try to delete messages it tells me they can not be moved to the trash because an item is there already there
    or it quits unexpectedly.
    “37900.emlx” couldn’t be copied to “Messages” because an item with the same name already exists.

    Exactly.
    That is why I say it is acting crazy.
    When I attempt to delete from any inbox accross all accounts
    it gives the same error code.
    Wether I highlight drag and drop, right click delete, or move manually one by one to trash.

    On all model BlackBerrys, first make certain that you in an area of good signal coverage AND outside with a clear view of the sky in an open area of no tall buildings.
    For GSM network devices, do this:
    Click Options > Advanced > GPS > Menu > Refresh GPS.
    Give it up to 10 minutes to refresh, and try 2-3 times in a row. 
    For the 9800 model:
    1. On the Home screen or in a folder, click the Options icon.
    2. Click Device > Location Settings.
    3. Press the Menu key > Refresh GPS.

  • Wifi issue in blackberry 9300 curve

    Respected sir,
     i am vinod and i have blackberry 9300 curve.. whenever i turn on wifi able to connect to the wireless network but am not able to use internet. its giving the error message ie 
    '' unable to coonect to the internet, please try again later. if the problem persists please contact your service provider'' and i am sure that wifi is nothing to do with service provider. please help to resolve this issue.. and i hope for positve response from you.

    You're running OS 5 on your BB 9300, right?
    So go into your Browser -> Browser Option -> General Setting -> Default Browser Configuration -> You choose: "Hotspot Browser"
    (If necessary, you should check at Browser Option -> Browser Configuration, it should be "Hotspot Browser" too).
    Then it will enable to use wifi in browser.
    Hope it works for you, buddy
    P/S: In case, your device's running OS 6 or the above solution can't solve your problem, let me know

  • 9300 curve memory

    I had an offer I couldn't refuse from virgin for a 9300 curve. It was my intention to use it mainly for calls and texts. However I now want to use it for web browsing as well. I am finding that on some sites the memory is not large enough to open the files. I know I could get another version with a larger memory, but is there any way I can upgrade/increase the memory on my current phone? I would appreciate any replies in non technical language as I am not experienced in mobile phone technology
    Thanks, hope to hear from someone soon

    If you want to delete apps, scroll to in on the menu and hit the BB menu button (you know, the one that looks like the Blackberry logo). Delete should be in there. You might need to reboot your phone after deleting some apps though, it'll warn you if you do.
    That usually works if you select other stuff - like photos - that you want to delete too.

    This is driving me crazy as I have to repeatedly delete messages again and again and again and ....
    Yes, this all happens a couple of weeks ago...
    I thought that because I have so many messages in my folders so I deleted some messages but that didn't help.
