Curve 8520 Serious Help Needed.

Hi.
My phone isn't working and it isn't charging either. Let me explain.
I checked the time then put the phone on lock and put it down. About 35-40 mins later I went to unlock and screen was black (as in turned itself off) and well, it's not going back on.
I've tried to charge and the red light goes on then a battery with a cross displays on the screen.
I waited about an hour during the charge and tried to switch it on and it still hasn't worked!!!
Help!!!
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).

  • Annoying problem with CURVE 8520, please help !!!

    My blackberry Curve 8520 connect to the mobile internet (not the BB service ) automatically everyday without me logging on any application or browser or making any updates.
    I tried installing a new software, formating the phone, removing all the aplication and restoring the factory settings and all of them did not work and the same problem PRESISTS.
    I contacted my provider customer service and they said that they can not know what exactly connects to the internet
    Does anyone have a clue what may be this annoying OPTION that makes the connect to the internet without any notification?
    I appreciate you help !
    Thanks 

    Hi gom3a and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    The BlackBerry® smartphone will always make a connection with the data network in order to ensure you are always receiving email and messages when then are sent to you.
    The BlackBerry® data services do not require you to login and most applications only require you to provide your login information once, then its saved so you don't have to login over and over again.

  • Curve 8520 india problems. need help

    hi.
    these are the problem i encounter with y blackberry
    i can not forward the media files being played...
    i can not receive mms (my carrier - airtel haryana )
    there is a glitch in the sms applet as sometimes, when i am deleting a conversaition, the mobile fone hangs and i can not re-open that conversation again.
    upon restart, the mobile shows "uncaught exception index 8>=8'
    NOW. to resolve this, i go to a BB technical solutions centre. there i enquire them what all will they do to this. the tech support person tells me that he will use the deskktop software manager to update my mobile phone. he switches on his laptop and connects my mobile to his laptop and his screen shows a number of updates for my mobile. he is charging me 500 rupees for that. i tell him not to update my mobile phone and i bring it back to my own laptop and repeat the same process again on my own laptop, my laptop says that there is no update available... now my question is that is this a joke? i mean why does d tech. support guy's laptop show him updates while my laptop does not. why do i have to pay him 500 bucks when i can update my mobile phone at home?
    please reply.

    With any glitch on a BlackBerry, first off do a battery pull reboot,
    With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.

  • Serious Help Needed, Please! Media Card Error

    Blackberry Torch 9800
    Okay this has happened to me twice. Second time just now. I noticed all my files were mucked up and wouldn't open, so I performed a battery pull with the device turned on. Turned my phone back on to discover a media card error with clustered files- tried to repair, repair failed. I've lost everything- again. I went to options>device>storage and tried to repair from there and it said I didn't have a media card installed. Tried to repair anyway and it also failed.
    The first time this happened I tried to repair from my computer and that failed too- it has failed this time also. I reformatted the card from my device- if anyone has a way to get my files back please let me know!
    I had seriously important memories and things I seriously need to get back. If there's any way I can't get them back please let me know. It says I have absolutely nothing in my files on my phone. Pleaaaase help!

  • G3 Firewire...Serious help needed on Start-up!

    Hello folks,
    I've had my G3 power book for 4 1/2 years now. I've never had any serious problems until now. When I start it up I get the flashing question mark. I've had this problem before but I was able to fix it by pressing
    'shift' while starting up. I've also tried holding the 'space bar', 'cmd-opt-p-r', 'c'. Anything that I try does not seem to work. I am unable to start up from the cd because my cd drive does not work. I've also tried an external cd drive but that doesn't work either. My main concern is that I can get some saved information that I desperately need.
    Is there anything else I can do? Please help.
    Johnnie

    Johnnie,
    Shut down the Powerbook FireWire a.k.a. Pismo and disconnect all cables, PC cards, and peripherals.
    Press the PRAM reset keys (command-option-R-P), power on and release the keys after you hear two startup chimes, and see if it will boot. You have probably already done this many times, but give it a try anyway.
    The host computer...running 9.x or 10.x? If 10.x, the Finder Preferences may not be set to display an HD icon on the desktop; open a Finder window and see if the HD is in the left column.
    Does the Pismo powerbook properly enter FireWire Target Disk Mode. Please follow the instructions in the link in my previous reply.
    Host computer turned on > Pismo turned off > connect Pismo to host via a 6-pin FW cable > start Pismo while pressing the 'T' key until the FireWire symbol appears on the Pismo's screen.

  • Serious help needed, google chrome wont work, access priviledge problems

    I have a 2007 MacBook Pro. I recently wanted to change the settings so I wouldn't have to type my password to make changes to the system settings, so I typed this is the terminal :
    sudo chown -R myname .
    Then I put in my password. After that I changed an account called "wheel" that I never saw before from "read and write" to "read". In the middle of this I think I cancelled the operation. Shortly after the internet page I was on crashed. I tried to restart Google Chrome and it doesn't respond. I tried safari and it doesn't do a thing. My iTunes keeps giving me a message that says the library cannot be saved because I don't have sufficient access priviledges.
    I'm seriously worried right now that I permanently broke my laptop and I am very concerned and help would be so appreciated rn.

    Just a few additional thoughts; if you would like to attempt some automated repairs:
    A) Repair disk permissions via single user mode. This link should help: http://osxdaily.com/2014/01/27/verify-disk-command-line-mac-os-x/
    B) Purchase a boot-able flash drive for Disk Warrior: http://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior. Which is a more advanced tool than the built-in one.
    By using sudo, it makes (super user) changes instantly. The reason unix and similar oses prompt for a password is to safe guard potential harmful system changes. You can't remove the requirement entirely from needing one.
    Its tough to trouble shoot blind without being there, but hopefully the system can be restored with a backup or repairing permissions.

  • Serious help needed with icloud restore

    Hey guys and ladies, i am in a serious state of confusion.
    firstly with my old email address i was getting alot of spam and fake emails, so i changed my email address, and i updated my apple id to this as well.  all going well, and then i decided to get an iphone 5.
    i was using iphone 4s and backup my photos and apps to icloud so i could restore it to my new iphone 5 today.
    well that hasnt worked out great.  its still asking for my old account/apple id password and even the senior level of applecare support cant figure it out either.
    i have lots of important family photos sitting in the icloud that i truly dont want to lose.  when i reset and try again still asks for the old and new logins. 
    been a nightmare today.
    any help or tips would be great.

    Since the email address is no longer active you'll need help from iTunes store support to reset the password.  (Even though this is an iCloud account, they deal with Apple ID issues all the time.)  Suggest you contact them here, explain that you are trying to access your iCloud backup but it isn't accepting your Apple ID password and you are unable to reset it because the primary email address associated with the account is no longer active and need their assistance: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.

  • WRT160N Version 3; SERIOUS HELP NEEDED FOR SETUP PLZ??!?!?!

    I bought this router probably around 3 weeks ago. 
    The following is a list of chronological scenarios that i have tried in order to install it and everything during the first week that i got it:
    1. I followed the CD's instructions, got LELA, but then when i used LELA to 'add another computer' it just gave an error, and then after this i could not be screwed using LELA anymore and so i uninstalled it, and then went online to 192.168.1.1 to configure the settings of the router, SSID, password and security which i put was WPA2 etc.
    BUT THIS DID not work at all, i have 2 laptops, 1 of them which is new, and the other which was a couple of years old, they could not detect anything.
    2. I then did some internet research, and read on these forums that i needed to change some of its advanced wireless settings, i did that. And then I could actually connect......and was extremely happy at this moment, BUT the next day i noticed, that even though i was about a metre away from the router, my speed was varying BADLY, initially when i first connect with my new laptop which has a Intel Wifi 5100AGN adapter it has a speed of 144mbps, but when i open internet explorer, i see the speed going slower and slower, until it is 1mbps, and sometimes the wireless just cuts out. This happened to my other laptop as well.
    3. I then called for technical assistance, spent so much time talking trying to solve, and downloaded the latest firmware, reflashed the router, but still it has this problem of slowing speeds which is really frustrating.
    And doing some more talking and following more instructions from the person on the phone, both my laptops could not connect to the router, even though it can see it at 'Excellent' connectivity.
    4. And so, the person on the phone concluded that i should exchange the router with new one, which i am planning to do, and will probably get it tomorrow. But i am also thinking to myself whether or not to get a different one.
    SOME NOTES:
    -When it is wired the internet works fine
    -the adapter in the older laptop is a intel 2200BG, so i know that it would probably go at a max speed of 54mbps
    -when i said changing advanced wireless settings, i meant changing frequency/RTS/beacon levels etc to the values i have seen on these fourms.
     CURRENTLY, since i am exchanging i have gone back to the old ASUS router which is G. and it connects well with the old laptop with a constant speed of 54mbps, but havent tried the new laptop as i can not be bothered. Also my main reason of getting a N router is just for range, because with the current one, i just cannot detect the router when i am in my bedroom, which is less than 20m, even if i can detect it is is very poor connectivity, WHERE AS with the WRT160n before i exchanged it, i could detect at first with Excellent connectivity, but as i said, the problems with speed and wireless cutting out etc is what results from this router.
    I guess my main point is that, i want to ask any of you have used the VERSION 3 of WRT160N, and is currently working very well wirelessly. Can u please tell me the step-by-step instructions to help me set this router perfectly?
    regards

    Try updating both of your laptops wireless cards that could fix the problem (you know may not be compatible with your WRT160N).
    I know you said you changed the channel your router broadcasting in but do you have a lot of other wireless networks in your area???
    GoodLuck
    Matt

  • Can't Activate my Creative Cloud Subscription -- SERIOUS HELP NEEDED!!!

    For the past 3 weeks, I've been trying to activate my Creative Cloud subscription (placed my Creative Cloud order on 12/29/12).  Like others, it appears that I’m trapped in perpetual "trial mode" status.  When I try to activate my subscription -- I click the “register product” button…sign into my Adobe ID account…and receive a prompt to enter a serial number.  Every time.  I’ve litterally read every post/link/tutorial/troubleshooting selfhelp in this forum and on the Adobe FAQ pages - with great attention, might I add - but nothing seems to work.
    I've spent hours upon hours on the phone/live chat w/ Adobe reps trying to resolve this issue.  I've opened no less than 10 support cases.  EVERY SINGLE TIME that I try to activate my Creative Cloud membership, an Adobe rep feeds me the "I'll be sure to escalate this issue to the next level of support" line.  Likewise, Adobe support reps stated numerous times, that personnel from Adobe would contact me within 24 hours of my call to resolve the issue.  However, they’ve yet to follow through with this claim.  (Surprise)
    Adobe should be ashamed by the egregious performance of their "technical support team.”  If Adobe won't fix the software, which they've already charged me for, then they've left me w/ little choice but to cancel my order before the initial 30 day period is up.  Enough is enough.
    With that being said, Adobe, the following describes this dismal experience:
    I bought a subscription of Creative Cloud on 12/29/12 (somehow I ended up w/ the Multi Language edition of Creative Cloud- yes I've fiddled w/ the language settings in the app manager.  Doesn't work.)
    I received an order verification email from Adobe for my purchase, however, the order was never listed under the "my recent order" section of my Adobe ID
    Despite telling Adobe support that I only had one Adobe ID, they insisted that my order was showing up in their system, of which, was accessible by logging into my alternative Adobe ID (this didn’t exist because I only have one Adobe ID).
    Eventually, Adobe determined that a system error occurred on their side while processing the transaction, and fixed this initial issue.
    After this was resolved, I was able to login to my Adobe ID account and actually see my Creative Cloud membership order when viewing “my recent transactions.”
    After all of that, I'm facing my 2nd major issue w/ this program: the inability to activate my subscription.  As previously stated, I've tried everything to fix this issue.  I'm thinking that the initial problem w/ placing the order resulted in defective software.  Also, I’m not sure if this info is relevant, but I purchased the multiple language edition of Creative Cloud (somehow).  I live in the US, speak English, and am running OS X 10.8.2.
    Someone from Adobe, please look into this issue and help me.  I’ll be glad to provide any other relevant info that you may need.

    Had the exact same problem, just got it fixed. The solution is quite fast. Navigate to the hosts file. On a pc it's in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc folder, locate the file named 'Hosts' inside the etc folder. Open it with notepad. Delete everything underneath
    " # Copyright (c) 1993-2006 Microsoft Corp. # # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows. # # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name. # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one # space. # # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual # lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol. # # For example: # # 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server # 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host 127.0.0.1 localhost"
    Save. Open the application manager again, click "License this product" and sign in. It should work, now.

  • Facebook app is no longer working on my BB curve 8520!HELP please??

    Hey there
    I have had my BB 8520 for quite some time now & never had any problem having access to my Facebook app , it was slow with notifications etc etc but never did it not allow me to use the app!! So I woke up one morning and opened my facebook app from the previous night as always & it had frozen its home updates so I tried to refresh the page & it reloaded the page but then it was un-responsive from then on!!so I removed the battery,never helped!I un-installed it,rei-installed it,never helped!!I then deleted the app off app world and re-downloaded it,never helped!!HELP???I can still see the facebook app on my home page and when I click & open the fb app it opens up the login page through the app so I put my email and pin and then say login , the bubble pops up saying contacting facebook so I wait. .then it says in the bubble 'The facebook server is not able to handle your request at this time. Please try again later. (1503) ????? My facebook account still works in the facebook web internet page when searched through google but the App has crashed!!

    It could just be that your phone is having issues connecting to the Facebook server at the moment because of a communication error. You can try resending your service books to see if that might help, otherwise I'd try to wait another few hours. To resend your service books, go to Setup > Email Settings, press the BB Menu button and select Service Books. From here, you should be able to resend your service books.
    If resending the service books doesn't help and if it still doesn't work in a few hours, come back and let us know as there are some more drastic steps we can try to get you back up and running.

  • Serious HELP needed, on Airport Extreme

    Hi.
    I was wondering if anyone here could help me out, the thing I was looking, for is there any application where I can view the people who are connecting to my base station?
    I know you can put a password on it, but I just want a application where I can either accept or decline somebody, and view there name or something...
    +(I can't put a password on anyway as I have family that use the network connection in my house, and there on Windows machines, that can't connect when I have a password on for some reason...!)+
    If anyone can help, please do, I'd really appreciate it.

    It sounds like you attempted to use WEP for your wireless network encryption. You should use WPA, as WEP is no longer considered secure, but if you need to use WEP to support older devices, you need to know that one of the problems with WEP is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.
    In order to make things easier, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling the use of simple easy to remember WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys. The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a non-Apple client and vice versa.
