Keypad freezing and showing symbols

I have a blackberry 8520 and it suddenly just freezes particularly when i use the letters T and O. a set of symbols begin to appear where the letter T or O was typed and then the phone freezes. After multiple times pulling out the battery, it finally works, and then freezes again. The keypad and trackpad do not respond, unless heavily pressed on. WHY is this happenening out of the blue? My phone has never been near any sources of liquid and the only pressure applied to it is when my phone is in my pants pocket. 
Please can someone tell me how to get rid of this.
I went to a store and they performed a master reset. How do you perform this reset on  the 5.O software? ( im not talking about a memory wipe,im talking about restoring the phone back to how it originally was)
Hopefully someone has an answer
thank you !

Hiya!
 Those are one in the same really.
I would recommend trying a Clean Reload of your OS using the DM and see if that gets it.

    If you just got it back and it isn't fixed or something else is wrong with it take it back and have them do the repair correctly.

  • 2011 MacPro freezes and shows several multiple pink lines

    My 2-month-'old' MacBook Pro suddenly freezes and shows multpile vertical lines and makes loud beeping noises.
    When I manually reboot, again it freezes mid-boot and I have to reboot again.
    The second time I reboot, it successfully starts up.
    This is the third time it has happened in 3 hours!!
    See the video I uploaded on YouTube for a better idea of what I am talking about - http://bit.ly/kuBaFb
    I sincerely hope there is nothing major wrong with the computer. :-/
    It is running OS X 10.6.7

    Hello-
    I had a static issue like this a few Years ago with a Sony Point and Shoot Digital Camera not long after its warranty ended. Unfortunately the fix was replacing the Optical Sensor which cost more than a newer model. Time to Visit the Genius Bar. Remember You have 30 days if bought at Apple Store too Exchange for a brand new unit or for a Refund.
    best, s
    btw. Great Video Evidence, Plus There Seems to be A Very Subtle Saphire/Violet Saturation mixed with White, Your Window frames look slightly Violet throughout the video so Apple might have a bad batch of cameras or issues with the camera software struggling with discrepancies from the new hardware or just crap production or...? Keep the Faith & Everyone Updated & You'll Work It Out Soon

  • Mail freezes and shows empty mailbox a while after installing ML

    Hi there.
    I'm having massive issues with Mail since I upgraded my Macbook Pro from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion (and updated it to 10.8.1).
    I've been searching through the support, the web for hours but nothing matches my issues specifically. Sorry if I write a long message but I will be as accurate as possible.
    Mail was working fine at first for a week after upgrading to ML, then yesterday, while checking my emails, one of my accounts (Gmail set up as an exchange) couldn't connect, and had the small thunder icon by its side. I checked the password and settings, everything was fine. De-activated the account then reactivated it, still impossible to connect. And when I went again in the Mail preferences... the spinning rainbow came. For a long time.
    I had to force quit.
    Here started the real trouble.
    I restarted the laptop, and relaunched Mail. The mailboxes appear on the left and the messages are listed with a preview, but the right panel says "No message selected". Everytime I click on an email it hangs for a while then shows it, but if I click on another mailbox or even choose a subfolder of the same mailbox, the right panel goes back to "No message selected" and stays like this, even if I click on a message.
    In other words, I can't browse my mailboxes anymore.
    Sometimes it shows the new email download bar in the bottom left hand corner, but the new emails never show up. Every mailbox seems empty.
    Opening the preferences brings the spinning rainbow until I lose patience and force quit.
    Clicking on the check emails button does not react.
    Typing a new email also makes it spin forever.
    The "flagged emails" category says there are 12 emails in it but remains empty when I click it.
    I tried to be patient, and after a LOOOOONG while (15 minutes), 2 out of 4 mailboxes show the recent emails, but 2 of them (a google exchange and a google IMAP) keep freezing and don't show anything, as well as the flagged emails category.
    I've tried various things found over the web (deleting com.apple.mail.plist, deleting Enveloppe Index). Nothing helped.
    The weirdest thing is that is worked fine so far after upgrading and it started freezing out of nowhere, not after a software update or even after downloading new emails.
    Last precision, ML was a full install on a brand new hard drive, then Migration assistant brought everything from my former, snow leopard internal hard drive.
    Everything was migrated successfully.
    How can I fix Mail and... check and write emails again ?
    Thanks in advance guys, I'm lost.

    ...to continue: I've deleted the Mail folder from the Library and the 'com.apple.Mail' folder from the Containers folder in the Libtrary; created a new account from scratch and guess what? Still happens. As soon as I select accounts in the preferences the spinning ball kicks in. Can't find what is corrupted anywhere. As I create a new account (I've tried different email accounts), I've trawled the Mac looking for what's new or updated. Nothing seems relevent. Gah!
    Please somone, know something helpful and pass it on.
    Cheers,
    SNaP.

  • Ipod skips past several songs then freezes and shows error message

    My ipod recently started skipping past several songs at a time. When this happens, the album artwork doesn't match up with the song title shown beside it and the ipod just keeps skipping over songs, sometimes 20 or 30 until it finally stops and starts working again. Then it will just stop all-together and show an error message.....connect to apple.com/ipod/support. Anyone have any idea why this happens and if it can be stopped? Is there any way that the album artwork slows everything down and causes the problem?
    Thanks

    My ipod is still not working right. I've tried everything. I had recently started using an external hard drive to store itunes when the problems began. Is it possible that my music is not transferring correctly from the Ex. H.D. to my ipod.Some songs play fine one time, then don't the next. Any suggestions at all would be most appreciated. Please help, I really miss my ipod.

  • My Facetime keeps freezing and showing poor connection

    I have recently purchased a new iPad mini and when i use Facetime the screen freezes to a blur of the screen image and "poor connection, video will resume when connection improves" appears on the screen. I have been through all the Apple support trouble shooting and this has not fixed the problem. I have tried the iPad on different internet systems and the error still occurs. Has anyone else had this happen to them? I was reading on a forum from the U.S. that this is a software problem effecting newer models as older gen 1 iPads are unaffected and still working.

  • Activity monitor freezes and shows no processes

    I've been having a recurring problem lately. I have two large Numbers files with lots of cell references. When working with these files, my MacBook's brain seems to be melting: operations as simple as changing worksheets can take a few minutes, editing cell contents can take several minutes more. Copying and pasting is a "set it up, make some lunch, come back and check" kind of operation.
    The performance was so remarkably bad that I thought I should open up the Activity monitor and see how much of the CPU Numbers was using. However, I found that whenever I try to open the Activity Monitor, no processes are listed and the monitor hangs indefinitely with the swirling "waiting" pointer. No processes ever show up, no matter how long I wait, and the monitor is frozen with the "waiting" pointer. If I try to force quit the process, it is listed as "Not Responding".
    Any suggestions for what might be going on here and how to fix it? Could the Activity Monitor and Numbers issue be related? I'd like to troubleshoot the Activity Monitor first and then move over to the Numbers forum if necessary to figure out the problem there.
    Thanks very much,
    Adrian

  • Who else is having Safari freeze and show the spinning beach ball?

    So far Yoyo has been much much better than Mavericks in every way.  However, Safari suddenly just started loading pages very slowly and the spinning ball was almost constantly replacing my pointer.
    Has anybody else had this happen in OSX10 and what was your solution?  I loaded Chrome and all is well again.
    I was beyond angry with OSX9 and it was a useless waste of my time and energy.  Yosemite seems to have fixed nearly all the insipid problems that started with OSX8, but this has me wondering if I'm the only one.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

    Hey saandyy,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    You can try to restart the iPhone to exit recovery mode.
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
    Have a nice day,
