BlackBerry Z10 keeps restarting

Hi there,
When I try to boot my Z10, first the red LED turns on, then turns off and then the BlackBerry logo appears on the screen. After a few secs, it restarts and it shows the red LED again. That's endless and I haven't found any hay to boot the device. I've tried to reinstall de software via web, but it doesn't work.
Any solution?

pauarge, since rebooting and reloading the OS hasn't worked for you, you may need to use an Autoloader file to revive the device. If you don't have a backup, you will lose all data and preferences.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    We understand your situation is urgent to you...but please understand that this is a volunteer-contributed user-to-user community. No one is paid to participate here, but rather does so out of the kindness of their heart. As such, it is customary to wait 24 hours before "bumping" your thread to try and re-gain attention.
    Nevertheless...from what you describe, this is a problem with WhatsApp itself...and you would need to contact the developer for support of their app.
    But, have you tried the basics yet? As in, removing, rebooting, and reinstalling the app?
    Good luck and let us know!

  • My blackberry 9920 keeps restarting

    My Blackberry device 9920 with 7 OS getting restarted every half hr. 
    I tried Factory reset but no sucess.
    Is any updated on this.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
    KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
    It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, see what happens.
    If the behavior ceases, then think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
    But if the behavior continues in Safe Mode, then you may need to consider more drastic actions -- WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload, and the "Bare Bones" OS Reload Process. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup to your PC...please review the Backup link in my auto-sig on this post for instructions.

  • Blackberry Z10 keeps getting update message and its already updated

    I have a BB Z10, whenever I plug it into the computer I get the message that an update is available.  I ave updated the device a couple times and my device is currently running 10.1.0.273.  Is this a normal thing?

    Had the same issue, also on Rogers.
    It would ask me for an update, then tell me that the update failed, over and over again.
    Ended up deleting Rogers apps (1Number, My Account, Anyplace Live) - went through BBWorld...My World...My Apps and Games, although long-press and delete should work too.
    Haven't been asked to update since.

  • My Blackberry Z10 restarting itself & also having Network Problems

    Hi Guys,
    I have been using Blackberry Z10 for +/- 16 months now and I was happy with it from the beginning but as time goes on, it's frustrating me a lot as a result I sometimes question myself if I ever made the best decision for choosing "Blackberry" than other Cellphone Manufactures like Samsung or iPhone.
    My Handset is running the latest OS Version: 10.2.1.3247 and I always update or upgrade it as soon as there's new release hoping that it will improve but that doesn't seem to help either. To add more salt on the wound, it keeps having Network problems during the night and weekends and I would much appreciate it if this problem could be resolved ASAP.
    Frustrated Customer,
    Z. Matu

    OK, I was having a very similar problem, and I had never done a security wipe since owning the phone. So, doing a security wipe cleared the issue up for me 99%. Once in a great while I will still get a restart. But it's very, very infrequent.
    I know it can be a pain doing a security wipe, because it basically resets your phone (without effecting the OS) as if new -- but that means removing all your contacts, messages etc. So, be sure to back it up if you try it.
    Also, be sure your battery isn't loose in the housing. I also has this issue (and it caused random restarts) so cut a tiny piece of a business card and shimmed the battery on the side opposite the contacts. Shimming the battery would be a simple fix, if it worked.  So, maybe you'd want to try that first. 

  • Blackberry z10 hangs and restarts a lot

    OS: Blackberry OS 10Model Z10
    Model Number: STL100-3
    Software Release: 10.1.0.273 
    I have also tried 10.1.0.1880 all problems remain same.
    I am new user to the blackberry family.
    I was very exited to use Blackberry Z10 but there are many small bugs in the phone. 
    I thought that they will get fixed after update but last night i updated phone with 10.1.0.273 but majority of bugs remain same with my case.
    List of bugs.
    Phone automatically restarts - High Issue
    while i am typing message it hangs up suddenly and restarts automatically.
    Phone heats up with out any operations and restarts.
    Phone is having very less battery running time. ( this can be resolved by my self by changing the battery with high power battery. )
    Please acknowledge me once you check this message.
    Share me link if there is any portal / community is there which keeps update about the Z10 updates which are on going so that i can update my OS accordingly.

    The rebooting issue is a known issue. 10.1.0.2342 was rumored to have fixed it but I haven't heard for sure what the consensus is.
    When the phone heats up and battery takes a hit it usually means something is running in the background. Download an app called "Advanced App Manager" and run that and see if there any applications running that you can kill.

  • Please Help. Message pops up when I try to connect my blackberry z10 to Linc.

    Please help.
    I downloaded the Linc Software and also restarted the computer numerous times. 
    Each time when I try to connect my blackberry z10 to my computer the following message pops up:
    "Files Needed
    The file 'rndismpx sys' on Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 CD is needed.
    Type the path where the file is located, and then click OK."
    Please help I have no idea how to make my new z10 connect to the Linc because this message keeps poping up and I don't have any CD's.
    Thanks so much.

    Never give up:  Unininstall Link then do a search and remove all BB and Link files.
    Reinstall Link, if you still have the same issue uninstall Link and all BB files.
    Depending on what you want to do attaching phone and computer BB Device Manager might be sufficiant
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Z10/DIAL-KEYBOARD/td-p/2662937
    If you do install BB Device Manager and have the same issue it could be computer related.
    Before doing the above check to see if you have the file    rndismpx.sys   on your system, it is located here:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers     probablly not there.
    Two choices: uninstall SP3 and reinstall  or find the file on another computer copy it then paste it in the location mentioned above.
    XP is 12 years old and normally OS is supported for 8 years but was extended for 4 years.
    April 8 2014 all support for XP ends, that means no more Security or any Updates.
    Eventually you will have to get a new computer. Only 4 months left.
    You could check again on the Web for that file, it should be available.

  • Must-know BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry 10 tips and tricks

    Check out the following must-know BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry 10 tips and tricks to get the most out of your new BlackBerry 10 smartphone.
    1) BlackBerry 10's Built-In Screen Shot Feature
    Capturing a screen shot on a BlackBerry 10 device is simple. Just hold both the volume up and volume down keys simultaneously for a couple of seconds until you hear a shutter sound. Screen shots are saved to your BlackBerry 10 camera gallery.
    2) Volume Up/Down Keys as Media Controls
    You can use your BlackBerry 10 device's volume up and volume down keys to skip through songs in your music librery. To enable this feature, open your BlackBerry 10 Settings by dragging down from the top of your display while on your Active Frames screen or a home screen panel. Choose Settings from the dropdown menu and click System Volume. On the following page, slide the Music Shortcuts button to the On position.
    3) Volume Up/Down Keys and the BlackBerry 10 Camera
    You simply tap your BlackBerry Z10's display with the camera or video camera open to snap an image or start recording a video clip. But it's sometimes easier to use the volume keys. Just tap the volume up or volume down keys with the camera open to snap and image. And you can also use these keys to start and stop video capture when your camera's video mode is enabled.
    4) Instantly Launch Voice Control
    The BlackBerry Z10 can initiate lots of different actions based on voice commands thanks to its Voice Control app. And you can instantly launch Voice Control by holding your device's mute key for a couple of seconds.
    5) Launch BlackBerry Camera from Lock Screen
    BlackBerry 10 lets you quickly launch your camera application from its lock screen, a feature that can be valuable when you want to take spur-of-the-moment shots. A camera icon appears in the bottom-right corner of the locked display screen, and you can hold it for a couple of seconds to launch the camera app.
    6) Advanced BlackBerry Hub Inbox Controls
    The BlackBerry Hub is the central inbox for all of you various BlackBerry 10 application notifications and messages. You can access basic Hub controls by clicking the Menu key at the bottom right of your Hub screen. (The Menu key looks like three dots stacked on top of each other.) But you can also access some advanced BlackBerry Hub controls from the date bars that appear in the inbox stream at the start of each new day.
    Just hold a finger on a date bar to bring up controls that let you skip to the start of the past day, the start of the next day, jump to the top of the BlackBerry Hub, jump to the bottom of your BlackBerry Hub or mark all prior messages as read.
    7) Speedy BlackBerry 10 Navigation
    The BlackBerry 10 OS can be broken down into three main components: The BlackBerry Hub; the Active Frames screen; and your application panels. You can do navigation through these components using a basic set of swipes and gestures. But you can also use the tiny slider tray that appears at the bottom of the Active Frames screen and all of your home panels. Just tap a specific panel in the slide to navigate directly to that panel without scrolling. Touch the Active Frames square, which is composed of four smaller squares, to jump directly to your active apps page. Or tap the Hub button, which looks like three horizontal lines on top of each other, to navigate right to the Hub.
    8) See Your Battery Life Status as a Percentage
    The BlackBerry 10 OS does not currently allow you to set your battery-status indicator to show a specific percentage, only a battery icon. But you can check your device's hardware settings for a more specific battery status. Just open your device's Settings by sliding down from the top of your Active Frames or application-panel screen and choose Settings from the dropdown menu. Then click About. On the following screen, change the Category menu from General to Hardware. You'll see a battery percentage listed in the Hardware information.
    9) BlackBerry 10 Boot Status as a Percentage
    Whenever you restart or power up your BlackBerry 10 devices, a BlackBerry logo appears with a status bar that encircles it. The status bar shows you start-up progress, but you can also view that progress as a percentage number. Just hold your finger anywhere on the BlackBerry logo and a progress percentage appears.
    10) BlackBerry Z10 Keyboard Tips, Tricks and Shortcuts
    You can type special characters using the BlackBerry 10 virtual keyboard by holding your finger on top of a letter with associated special characters (e, a, i, o, u, y, etc.), and then sliding your finger over to the character of your choice.
    Quickly sliding your finger downward from the top of your keyboard to its bottom cycles through the number and character screens so you don't have to tap the number/character screens button, which can slow down typing.
    And you can delete an entire word instead of just individual letters by swiping leftward from the backspace key toward the center of your keyboard.

  • Apps on BlackBerry World for BlackBerry Z10

    Hi BlackBerry
    I'm very impressed with the new BlackBerry Z10 device with its new features, display resolution, keyboard typing and gestures, but I have a big issue with the Apps on BlackBerry world. 
    Still BlackBerry World is missing lots and lots of popular apps that are widely used and are currently available on Apple AppStore & Android Google Play. I know that you are working on it, and it is hard for now to compete with Apple & Android appstores, but at least there is a punch of apps that are mostly common worldwide, especailly the social networking and voip calling apps which have to be launched officially on BlackBerry world as soon as possible.
    In addition, I'd like to draw your attention that the Facbook app (which is currently integrated with BB 10) is an older version of Facebook than the currently available one for Android & iOS devices (one big difference is that the current facebook app version for Android & iOS devices include the "Share" feature for my feeds and stories, while the facebook app on BB 10 still does not include that feature). I don't know about twitter and linkedin, as I didn't check yet, but at least pleasue ensure with their developers that those native integrated apps are updated to their latest versions to provide BlackBerry users the same experience that Android & iOS users are having.
    Also, about apps, there are many apps developed by Google (like youtube, Google Maps & Navigation, Google +, Google Current ...etc) which are not yet available on BlackBerry world (The Youtube app on BB 10 is just a shortcut to the internet broweser and not a fullt fledged Youtube App). Having Google apps on BlackBerry world will also give a big push to the users base for BB 10 (especially the Google Maps & Navigation, which are ranked and considered the best mapping database and app worldwide). I know that Google have to develop such apps from their side (as the same for other developers), but I hope that BlackBerry should give this issue its ultimae priority, as I think that the major drawback (if I can name it so) for BB 10 to earn a significant market share worldwide is the absence of many popular and widely used apps on the BlackBerry World as compared with Apple App Store and Android Google Play. 
    I know that BB 10 and its OS is just the begining, and that BlackBerry have more to provide to us from the apps side and other sides as well, so keep moving and hope to see the positive results soon.
    Regards;

    Hi ahmed_mh1,
    Blackberry has certainly put in a concerted effort to woo app developers of all types, big names and small alike. It by far the best effort that I have ever seen from them in this regard.. Unfortunately no matter the effort by them it will always come down to numbers for the big guys. If they aren't sure there will be a ROI on the investment of developing they won't put the resources into it.
    This can be seen with the Facebook app you mentioned, it is a great example because it wasn't developed by Facebook... Blackberry ended up doing it for them. I'm sure that we have all noticed that Blackberry has been busy working on other areas of the phone, and that they have lots more work that we would all like to see done.
    Would you rather have better notification granularity, or a better Facebook app?
    If all of the million + z10 use re would all petition Facebook for a better FB built app, then we would have a much better chance of seeing the dream FB app that we desire.
    Of course we all know about the rumours that FB wants to have their own phone.. so maybe conflict of interest has played into the game...?
    #GetWithBB10!!! As Kevin O'Leary says.. it is the best!

    Can't find an app on Blackberry World yet? Tweet the developer and ask when they will #GetWithBB10 !!

  • BlackBerry Z10 Error "The file cannot be played due to an unexpected error (10)"

    Hope someone can help this one, I received a voice note through BlackBerry Messenger, after downloading I tried to play it and the following message popped up, "The file cannot be played due to an unexpected error (10)".
    I received another file, 3GP format, tried to play it, same error pops up. I headed over to the music and video libraries, I could not see these 2 files. I connect my Z10 to the notebook and checked on my SD Card, I could see the files from were not named correctly e.g. VID 00001-20101226-1206 was named as VID 00001%20101226-1206 with the percentage symbol being the unusual thing I picked up. This was the case for both files.
    I then modified/remaned the files replacing the % with a - (dash) symbol. The files were now visible and able to play through the Z10. I think there is a problem with the way BBM files are being saved especially the naming convention might be having an error/bug.
    My OS release is 10.0.10.99, Version 10.0.10.738 with Build 455718. Is there a fix for this problem that is known? I checked but saw no posts where it was clearly addressed. Am I the only one experiencing this anomaly?
    I have restarted the device but this does not resolve. I have attached a screenshot of the error sequence also showing how the file is named upon saving to my media library.

    Hey runyamhere,
    Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
    To find the root cause of this issue regarding the media not saving the file properly, we will need to gather logs from the BlackBerry Z10.
    I would highly suggest you contact your network service provider and ask to be transferred to BlackBerry so we can get a case number created so we can get the logs.
    Cheers.

    Hey reltoukhi,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question..
    Do you find this issue happening if you leave Wi-Fi hotspots?  Also when did the issue start?  Have you tried a new SIM card into the BlackBerry Z10?  Also does the signal go down to edge or gsm in lower case letters?
    I look forward to your reply.
    Cheers.
