Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
Remove the battery
Wait 15 minutes
Insert the battery
Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
Good luck and let us know!

So I installed the newest version of Twitter on my phone and it says that there is no internet connection even if I'm connected to my wifi. I can't upload my photos to Twitter but I can tweet and send DMs.Regarding the BBM problem, I can't connect my BBM with my twitter and facebook, it's always stuck on step 2 which says that I need to turn my radio on. I tried to connect it with the radio on but it still won't work. Please help me.
Thanks.

Issue with Blackberry Curve 9220

Hi,
I have a problem with the blackberry curve 9220 joy stick or laser (do not know what to call it exactly - phone terminology). I could see the laser light while switching the phone ON and then later it disappears. Due to this I'm unable to navigate the screen through the joy stick. This is becoming very difficult to make phone calls nor for any usage per say. Is there something wrong and needs an urgent attention?
+ I agree about 3 months ago the phone fell into a mug of water and after a day it worked with no problem till date.. Need your help and insights to see if I can put the phone to sleep and buy another one.....
I really love this phone and wanted some solution to make it work.
Need help
Thank you

Up until that point, I thought that I would have useful advice for you...but that information changed everything. There were steps to try ("the rice trick"), but they needed to be done 3 months ago...too late now. Applying power to your BB between it getting wet and doing those processes reduces the chances of success. Further, the only thing predictable about moisture intrusion into a BB (indeed, any electronic device) is that the results will be unpredictable. I've seen some come back up right away and be fine. I've seen others never work at all. I've seen still others run for a bit, and then die later (which sounds like your situation). And everything in between.
Good luck!

SOS blackberry curve 9220

Its been only four months since I bought my BlackBerry curve 9220. Last night it just went blank and when i tried to switch it on a battery with a cross appeared. I tried to charge it and this morning i noticed it was not charged at all. Does this means the battery is definetely dead?

Can be, first try pluging it on an outlet or try using a different battery to determine if its with the battery
Let me know if this help.

Blackberry curve 9220 got dead in just 4 weeks. the worst service center experience in ahmedabad, gujarat - india.

hi, my name is hem(personal info removed) from ahmedabad.
i m feeling like a fool after buying a blackberry curve 9220 white handheld from snapdeal. i received the phone in the last week of april'13 and on 31st may'13 my phone got dead. i submitted to the service centre in ahmedabad @ mithakali on 3rd june'13(WORK ORDER NO. - (personal info removed)223). i have been told that it needs to be sent to bangalore and will be back in aroung 15-20 days. still i have not received my phone. no one from blackberry is responding to me. from service centre ms. shweta told me that it will take one week - the same reply since last two weeks. mr. chintan has cooperated well on the no.((prsonal info removed)70). mr. chintan said that this service centre does not belongs to him so he has given me one more contact no. of mr. pravin - (personal info removed).
i m trying to get connect to this no. since last two days. this no. is either busy or not getting replied. i tried this no. in last two days for more than 50 times atleast. today mr. chintan has given me one more no. of mr. prashant ((personal info removed)13). he asked me for the WO no. and told me that some one will get back to me. i got a call from mithakali service centre and same reply - one more week. now mr. prashant is also not replying my phone. i m really not understanding a phone like blackberry which i hardly used for 4 weeks is lying with service centre since almost last four weeks. now in no way this phone is acceptable to me. now this long message is my last hope. i hope to recieve at least a reply as this is the longest message i have ever drafted in my life and that too for a bloody phone like blackberry. black service and black associates.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
As a user-to-user community, no one here can answer your question with any level of authority whatsoever. BlackBerry provides zero front line support to end users, including warranty...all support starts with the carriers, authorized resellers, and authorized service centers, all who can escalate cases into BlackBerry at no charge to the end user.
So, your escalation path is not here, in these forums. Rather, it is through your service center and/or place of purchase...even if they may have so far been unhelpful. You have no free path by which to bypass them, and should be escalating to their management levels.
There is something called incident support, but it costs to just ask the initial question, since you are bypassing the contract you signed upon purchase. If you wish to investigate that, you can review it here:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/programs/technical/incident.html
There also might be some good reading here:

Blackberry Curve 9220 compass

Bought a Curve 9220 a couple of days back and post searching all through the phone I am unable to locate the compass icon.
Desperately need help on this.
Is the compass sensor built into the phone (I was told that it is by the retailer, and all the specs available on the internet show the 9220 to be having the sensor)
In case the sensor exists on the phone, how do i use it ?

Hello hd101,
Welcome to the forums.
According to the user guide for the BlackBerry® Curve™ 9220 smartphone, this device does not have the compass feature. You can review the user guide and the below link.

Blackberry curve 9220 abruptly stopped working

I have purchase a blackberry curve 9220 in last week of march this year, after three months its aburptly stopped working. I have submitted it around 11 days back to delhi based blackberry service center (Expert Center, Nehru Place, New Dehli) but till now there is no update.
Can anyone update me what should I do shall I purchase some other mobile or wait for its repair?
If reparing would take time period like this then what is benefit of purchasing blackberry phone why should not to purchase phone from other venders (like Nokia, Samsung) who have very responsive service center.
Blackberry service center are hell nobody want's to go their as they never respond correctly.

I recommend an iPhone and you need to follow up your unit. Getting or replacing a smartphone can be expensive; more than $200 for even the most basic model. One of the questions sales representatives will often ask is if you would like to insure the phone. Is that insurance worth it?

Lost my BlackBerry Curve 9220. - help!

I just lost my BlackBerry Curve 9220. I had not taken note of the IMEI number of the device? But I have the PIN. How can I get the IMEI number ? How can I wipe out all data from that device ? Awaiting valuable advise from the Forum .... Best Regards, Roy Kurian

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Side note -- next time, please try to use the actual message body for all of your post, not the subject line. ;-)
Next, refer to this helpful thread:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-software/Lost-or-Stolen-BlackBerry-What-to-...
Lastly, if you have the original box the device came in, you can often find your information there. Or on your original receipt. Or on other documentation you have. Maybe on your monthly bill? Or, you can try to see if your mobile service provider has record of it for you.
Good luck!

Blackberry Curve 9220 - A disgusting Model....

I have seen a lot of Users of 9220 posting message with heating & hanging issue with BB9220. I would like to add to that -
I was excited to have bought the newly launched Blackberry Curve 9220, however was least bothered to encounter what was in store for me during the coming days. The nightmare started the very next day when i could feel my BB Device heating up automatically in standby and the battery draining within 3-4 hrs of full charge. If this was not enough, my 1 day old device started to hang on every other call where i couldnt pick the incoming call and had to remove the battery everytime this happened.
I thought this was a minor issue and would rectify within a day or two. But to my dismay this started increasing as time passed by.....and i was completely frustrated within 10 days of my device purchase.
I rushed to Redington Office @ Cunnigham Road and they kept my device for 1 day for issue verification. I demanded a DOA certificate so that i could get another 9220 device from the same dealer (No other choice).
Question is -"Is RIM working on a solution to this...Wasnt this model tested before release to India Market. Is RIM considering returining our hard earned money which we wasted in purchasing this disgusting model...which failed to deliver what it committed in those advertisement - "Long Battery Life", "Great User experience"....etc
If RIM is listening please answer.....

Hello,
Just to set your expectations, these forums are a user-to-user community of volunteers who attempt to help out other kind souls to the best of their abilities. It is not to be considered a user-to/from-RIM formal channel of communication. Sometimes RIM actually does participate here, but that must be considered quite rare indeed. Hopefully your message will at least be read by someone of authority, but I would not expect any formal response.
Good luck!
