I have done the following-:
Hard Reboot - Removed the Battery for 30 seconds, and then placed it again, No Blinking red Light.
Charge it with a different charger.
Blackberry Desktop Manager shows No device as connected, restarted my PC as well.
Tried removing the battery while the device is plugged in to the charger and then replacing it.
What has gone wrong with my device?Please help!!

Hi Bloodkills9,
Welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Try backing up your device via the BlackBerry Desktop Software and performing a clean reload of your device software. http://bbry.lv/bpv7DT Make sure to test for the issue before restoring any data from your backup file.

  • Blackberry Curve - dead!?!

    Hi.  Can anybody help?  I'm a technophobe so am at a total loss.  I charged my curve up this am.  Sent a couple of texts at lunchtime.  Watched the National, looked at my curve - dead as a dodo! HEEELLLPP!!!

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Put it onto a charger. Leave it totally alone for at least 2 hours. See if it comes back to life.
    There are a number of possible reasons for what happened...determining what it was would require being there at the time it happened and seeing it...not quite possible. But, an app could have been left running. Something could have gone haywire. Your battery could be defective. Your BB could be defective. Really, there's no way to tell yet...so let's see what happens in 2 hours.
    Good luck!

  • Moved to Helsinki with my 8320 Curve unlocked, can't get it to work

    Hi, I just moved to Finland and brought with me the 8320 Curve, which I previously unlocked from T-Mobile. They basically gave me the instructions and said it would be free to use with a new SIM card.
    I just got a SIM card and the cellphone works perfectly but no other feature. The carrier, DNA, said I wouldhave to set it up with BB since they only carry Nokia. Basically they do not help at all, like with everythingelse in Finland, no customer service.
    Kiitos,
    Carolina

    Port Forwarding.....or Port Mapping....as Apple calls it is a difficult and complex configuration method for most users. Because there are so many variables involved in this type of setup, it is not possible to provide a step by step guide that will work for everyone with all devices.
    It is possible that a setup guide exists for the the WD drive and AirPort Extreme, but you will have to go looking for it on the Internet. Even if you find one, it may not be tailored to your specific situation or needs.
    Sometimes, you can do everything right....at least according to someone's article or "how to" guide, and things still will not work correctly.
    In situations like this, when you really don't know what to do, you need to enlist the aid of an IT pro, who will know what to do based on your particular products and unique circumstances. Sometimes....they won't be able to get things working either due to particular circumstances.
    But, before you do this, I would strongly recommend that you use a Static IP address for your Internet connection with your ISP. If you do not have this now, contact them to ask them if they offer this type of connection. Expect to pay more for this type of service, of course.

  • My fully charged iphone4 is dead. Power and home reset doesn't help.What can I try?

    My fully charged iphone4 is dead. Power and home reset doesn't help.What else can I try?

    How do you know it's fully charged?  Are you sure your adapter is working?
    Plug it in to mains power for at least 15 minutes.  If it doesn't automatically turn on, try a Reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    If it still doesn't turn on, it's likely a hardware failure.

    Hi...
    Pull the battery now and place the phone in a bag of rice to dry it out...
    Here is another link on wet blackberries...
    If the phone is already dried out, you can send the phone out and have it repaired at the component level.
    There are several services that can do this. One is the bbrepairshop in Houston.

  • Really need help for 8320 curve cant open the camera

    I bought BB 8320 curve for 3 month and after 2 month later when i open the camara it show "Could not start the camera. Close other applications and try openning the camera again". what can i do with this problem. i have try to take the battery out for a while to restart it but its not work. Any one can help me?

    Hi Spacesa and welcome to the forums,
    Press the alt escape key (>looks like that) together and it will show you the applications you have running.
    Most people close the applications by pressing the escape or red key. This does not close the applications.
    Each application has a CLOSE option. For instance if you are in the calendar hit the menu key (spotted key) and scroll down to the bottom CLOSE is listed. Go through each application and press close. Go into the browser press menu and options select cache operations clear all categories and hit escape it will say cleaning memory.
    Go to options - security - memory cleaning - enable it. The BB will now clean memory when idle for 5 minutes.
    you will have an icon on you screen for memory cleaning make sure you press it. Once you have done this. Pull the battery for about 30 seconds, replace and try your camera, it should work.
    Make sure you use the CLOSE button each time you are done with an application. Your camera should be available to you when you like.
    Sorry for the length of this post, but I wanted to make sure we covered all aspects.
    Please try this and let me know if it works, or if your need more assistance!

  • My Mom has an ipod Touch 2nd gen. Working fine one night. Put on charger; next day dead.

    My Mom has an ipod Touch 2nd gen. Working fine one night. Put on charger; next day dead. 'Ive researched and tried everything. Fully charged. Let sit for 5 months to run the charge out.  Tap it firmly against padded surface. Press and hold buttons for x amount of time. Itunes won't recognize.  Deader than a door nail. What can I do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • 4s will not charge until battery dead. Tried reset and powering off.

    4s will not charge until battery dead. Tried reset and powering off.

    Inspect the charging port area for dirt/debris/fluff build-up that may be preventing a good connection and use a wooden toothpick, soft clean toothbrush, or a can of compressed air to clean it. Also look for bent or broken pins. Try another cable and/or charger block (be sure to always use a genuine Apple certified brand) in a known good outlet. If you're using a USB port, try another port. If you're using a hub, try a direct connection. If you're using a USB port in the front of a desktop computer, try one in the back. If all these fail, make an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar to have the device evaluated.

  • Iphone 5 won't charge after being dead for three days.

    Iphone 5 won't charge after being dead for three days due to power cable breaking. I got a new cable and it still will not charge. Is my phone broken in any way? What can I do to fix this?

    Hey TalkBack12,
    These are the recommended troubleshooting steps I found for when your battery does not charge:
    Battery does not charge
    Verify that the outlet being used is working.
    Try another USB power adapter if available.
    If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
    Try another USB cable if available.
    via: iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
    Since you got a new cable, I would concentrate on trying a cable other than the new one.

  • Since my I upgraded to ios7 my iPhone 4 will not charge, battery completely dead.  Any ideas

    Since my I upgraded to ios7 my iPhone 4 will not charge, battery completely dead.  Any ideas

    I updated my iphone 4 to ios7 three days ago. It now will only charge if connected to a computer USB port, either Mac or windows. It no longer charges on any wall mounted USB cable, like it did before the upgrade. The wall mounted cables still work just fine with an iPhone 4S and a new iPad retina display but not at all with the iPhone 4. Took it to a genius at apple store and they checked the battery. It still charges to 80% of original. They were clueless and suggested I replace the unit.  It seemed to be related to ios7

    Hello,
    I think you can try two things : the soft reboot, and if it does not work, the hard reboot. Don't worry, you can't lose data with these two reboots.
    Soft reboot :
    1) Hit the three following keys at the same time :
    - Alt
    - Right Shift
    - Delete
    2) wait 2 minutes for the Blackberry to wake up.
    Hard reboot :
    1) your Blackberry device is on
    2) remove the battery and wait for a minute
    3) Put the battery back
    4) wait 5 minutes for the device to wake up.
    Please tell us if it works for you.
    besides, what other devices do you want to connect to?

  • Battery not recognized, not charging, but not dead...AC plugged in

    My MacBook recently had a dilemma of not turning on. I went to the Apple Store and the Genius Bar tech guy fixed it with a SMC/PMU whatever power reset process it's called. Now my computer turns on, it just doesn't recognize the battery. The tech guy said my battery isn't dead, it just needs to be recharged. I'm kinda concerned that he didn't bother solving the issue at the store or try to tell me what is wrong. The computer only runs off the AC adapter, but sometimes when i plug it in the MagSafe connector will quickly flash green and orange repeatedly over and over and the battery status icon will go between X and 0% or from "No batteries recognized" to "Battery not charging" or "Charging not complete". This only happens occasionally. It also might say "Calculating..." but it will always go from one of these things then back to "No battery recognized" super fast repeatedly for a long while.
    Also, when i close my MacBook, it won't go to sleep immediately like it used to. So if i close it then unplug it to take it somewhere, it shuts down as opposed to sleeping. I know if it gets unplugged it might shut down cause lack of battery recognition, but why won't it sleep when i close it?
    I installed the Battery Update thingy for MacBooks and i don't think it did anything whatsoever. The AC cord works, the battery works, just not together on my laptop. I'm guessing while it was in it's permanent shut down state before i went to Apple Genius Bar, it must have drained the battery power, because i pushed the button when it didn't turn on the first time and it was fully charged with five green lights, then over the next two days i kept checking it and it slowly decreased until it is now a single flashing green light. It had two green lights when i went to the store, but after i got it "fixed" it stopped recognizing the battery.
    I've had this laptop for nearly two years now, and it has survived a lot. I read many forums/threads about battery failure in other MacBooks like mine, bought around the same time as mine, but my issue is a mix of all the different problems.
    For example, I have the same issues as these people did with their macbooks, but none of their solutions helped me:
    "my battery logo alternates between telling me the percentage and most of the time showing an 'X' in the battery, it says no batteries recognized. it even does it with the charger connected!"
    "The battery has a single, rapidly flashing, light when I press the button on it."
    "But it never is able to calculate a time, and if you disconnect the power, the computer immediately shuts down."
    "When I take out and reinsert the battery, it'll recognize it for a minute, flash in and out of orange, and than it will say no battery available."
    "In system profiler it says there's no battery installed, and the little LED lights on the bottom of the battery don't do a thing. It's as if the battery is not installed, yet it is."
    "My macbook has stopped working when not plugged in. The battery is installed but in profiler it says battery: not installed. Also there are no lights on the battery to show it charging. In the menu at the top of the desktop the battery has an X in it."
    "my laptop doesn't recognize my battery-- it only runs on the wall charger. I've tried popping the battery out, then back in. When the laptop isn't plugged in and I push the battery's little button, the first light flickers briefly for a second or two and then shuts off."
    "I turned on my Macbook with AC power after returning holidays. I realized it couldn't charge itself, and the battery indicator showed "X" with "No batterries available.""
    I searched everywhere for a solution. But it seems like i'll have to return to the Apple Store and get it fixed that way. Here's the computer info anyway:

    Do you have AppleCare? It seems to me you need a new battery but obviously we can't tell how bad the battery is unless you get that battery info while it is recognized.
    Try another SMC/PRAM reset and get that info. Call AppleCare about your issue if the Apple Store won't give you a new battery. (Depends how many cycles you have).
