Curve 9300: Middle sensor not working

Hello all..
Quite a while ago the middle button on my curve 9300 started behaving tempermental, I would have to press it hard to get a response from it. Now it's stopped working completely! Is this a common flaw with blackberrys because i've heard it's happened to other people also. Advice greatly appreciated!

Yes this is a common problem. I have just had the exact same fault on my own 9300, the best solution is a replacement trackpad. I got one off eBay for £3.95 and fitted it myself, problem solved.

    hi,
    are you referring to the application named "Facebook Messenger" or the chat feature inside the application named "Facebook for BlackBerry smartphones" ?

  • Toshiba - A665-S5170: ambient light sensor not working after recovery

    Hi all,
    Two weeks ago I bought Toshiba - Satellite Laptop Model: A665-S5170 | SKU: 1859059
    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Toshiba+-+Satellite+Laptop+/skuId=1859059
    I tried to resize the C: partition using the recovery option. It works fine ending with C: partition (100 GB) and D: partition (480GB)
    All the divers and applications restored fine except the ambient light sensor.
    I used system recovery to out-of-box state, but still have the same problem "ambient light sensor not working".
    Would you please help me find a solution?
    Thanks in advance.

    I had the same problem. I tried resetting SMC but that didn't do the trick. Then I tried “Repair disc permissions“ and that fixed the problem.

  • Curve 3g 9300 track pad not working.

    Hi my daughters Curve 9300 trackpad stopped working. Is this a common problem and if so does the phone need to be replaced or just the trackpad??
    All replies would be gratefully received.

    Hi aishilei
                             Thanks for the Update ! I am sorry but if your Trackpad is not working even after Device Update I think you need to replace or repair that.But before that I would like you to simple test ,Try starting your Device on safe Mode and see if your trackpad works,If it works your Apps are responsible for that ,But if it did work even on safe mode then as I said you may had to replace your Trackpad.

  • Ambient Light Sensor Not Working Macbook Pro 13 inch early 2011 version

    Hi. I just need some clarification on how the ambient light sensor works. it seems mine is not working. Correct me if I'm wrong:
    1. Screen light must increase brightness if you are in a dark / dim room
    2. Screen light must decrease brightness if there is natural light
    What must be the level of light in F2? Should it just be in the middle to activate ALS?
    Am I correct or not?

    1. Screen light must increase brightness if you are in a dark / dim room
    2. Screen light must decrease brightness if there is natural light
    Actually, you are wrong. The opposite of each statement is true.
    If the screen adjusted itself to maximum brightness in a very dark room, it would be blinding. In a dark room, you only need a very dim backlight to be able to see the screen well.
    And in bright light, the screen is quite hard to read unless it is very bright.
    What must be the level of light in F2? Should it just be in the middle to activate ALS?
    I'm sorry, but I don't understand these questions.
    The ALS is always active. You can determine (in System Preferences) whether or not it will automatically adjust your keyboard and display backlights as ambient light levels change.

  • Curve 9300 Blackberry Enterprise not available

    Hi everyone,
    I am currently using the Curve 9300 and I am not able to use my work email with the Blackberry Enterprise software. When I go to settings --> advanced system settings (which it says has enterprise activation) THERE IS NO ENTERPRISE ACTIVATION OPTION... 
    I also go to the set-up wizard and click email and my only options are yahoo, gmail, aol, windows live. There is no option for Blackberry enterprise.
    Please help!!! Thanks in advance

  • Trouble using a Curve 9300 for personal not business

    Would appreciate some help as I have just bought a Blackberry Curve 9300.
    I cannot send normal SMS, I can receive them and reply but when I compose and send they do not reach.
    The top of the message box shows Text Messages instead SMS,
    Any idea about this? in the manuals does not show about this problem.
    Regards
    Anxo Lobos

    Hi there,
    Well it was none of the issues neither with GPS nor server, it was basically that to send a SMS will have to do it with more clicks than on the IPhone4 or  Nokia C1, in my Iphone4 I can access even my hotmail without special data plans from the carrier but guess that I am just experiencing with Balckberry to see how it works before deciding for longterm use.

  • Iphone 6 proximity sensor not working any more

    Dear apple users,
    A few weeks ago i dropped my iphone 6 and my screen broke, so I decided to fix it. I ordered a screen online and changed it. Every thing seemed to be fine until i tried to call somebody, because my screen didn't turn off when calling, yet my light sensor did work. So I took it apart again and again and again but it didn't change anything. I went online and read on some forum that you had to tape it off in order to keep light from getting into the sensor. So i tried but also this didn't work. I really don't know what to do now, does anyone know how to fix this problem? By the way, I should just have brought it to apple, but I thought this would be a lot mor expensive and take a lot more time. But after all I should have never done this
    With kind regards,
    Joost Bun

    Sorry, but as you already wrote, you should have never done this, and Apple will not service the phone anymore after you have opened the phone.
    Your only chance would be finding a 3rd party repair service that can fix that for you. And we can't help you either, due to the Terms of Use in these discussions.
    Good Luck anyway.

  • Proximity Sensor Not Working on Brand new Z2

    Hi, The Proximity sensor is not working on my new Xperia Z2. I have ran all the tests on the phone and they have failed. When Put up to the ear during a call the screen does not switch off and all the icons get pressed etc. This is VERY annoying as i cant even speak to anyone for a minute before im dialing someone else by mistake. All Software is up to date. SONY, What the soslution here? I will be taking it into the Sony Center here tomorrow but I dont want to be without my only buisness phone for 3-4 days.

    OK installed each update to the pre-installed apps one at a time and tested the proximity sensor after each. All fine till Sony TV Side view : quick remote. after instalation proximity sensor stopped working. after uninstall all working fine again.Seems this is the culprit but I will add my 3rd party apps one at a time just to make sure. 

  • Sensors Not Working. Please help!!! :(

    I have got a new BB z10 and its Sensor doesnt seem to be functioning.  When I take the call the take the headseat near my ear, the screen doesnt sleep automatically. similarly when I take the phn back from ear it doesnt wake up. Is this a software issue? I am on the stock OS yet and havent updated to 10.2. Please help.
    thanks 
    Naveen

    Hi,
    Use the BlackBerry Virtual Expert to test the sensors. It should pre-installed, or go through the Help icon and select Test. I'd also make sure the device software is up to date, using BlackBerry Link.
    If the Test shows that it's not working and the device is new. I would suggest you return it to your point of purchase for repair or replacement.
