My blackberry Curve 9380 won't switch on

Hi, my blackberry curve 9380 won't switch on and i have had it on charge since last night. The red light or green light isnt on and it doesnt want to switch on even after i take the battery, sim and SD card out? It is just under a year old. Can anyone help because i need my phone to be on urgently!!!!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB):
With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
Remove the battery
Wait 15 minutes
Insert the battery
Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
Obtain a known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem.
Good luck and let us know!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
Remove the battery
Wait 15 minutes
Insert the battery
Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does

The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
Good luck and let us know!

Switch b/w edge and GSM on Blackberry Curve 9380

Hey few days back I bought Blackberry Curve 9380. Basically I'm new to Blackberry Universe.
Generally when I'm at home, I prefer to use GSM only coz I have Wi-Fi. But when I swtich off data usage, connect to Wi-Fi, the Browser and other internet applications say that they are unable to internet.
Also guide me how to switch b/w GSM & edge network...
Solved!
Go to Solution.

First Your need BIS - Blackberry Internet Serives subscription from Vodafone IN, this is the unique feature which seperates other mobile devices from Blackberry.
Browser, Facebook,twitter and all other apps require BIS subscription. Only appworld will work in Wi-Fi mode.
You can change the Browser settings to Hotspot to work in wifi, but i think in OS 7 it will detect automatically.
if you have BIS subscription 3G is free.

My Blackberry Curve 9380's screen won't turn on!

My Blackberry Curve 9380's display screen won't turn on! The flashing red light still appears so I guess I am still able to receive texts. I can also receive calls; my ring tone goes off but I cannot answer! I have to unlock it and I can't do anything on a touch screen that's virtually useless now. I've done so many battery pulls yet it doesn't work.
I did drop it but it wasn't very hard. My bb fell when it was in my rubber case and the fall was around knee length (I am very short only 5'0). My friend said its possible that the backlight broke. If it is true, how much does it cost to repair it? My warranty expired a few weeks ago...
My friend also said there could be something else wrong with it. Like a downloaded an app that had a corrupt file (this has happened to me before and the phrase "Uncaught exception java.lang.error" kept popping up every time I did a battery pull) or a programming error. I tried Jl_Cmder and I've done reset to factory. I've even tried to wipe everything completely. "The device will reboot to a white screen with a '507' error" this didn't happen... It did reboot but nothing can be seen. I regret it deeply ...
I'm sorry this is so long but please can someone help me? ):

Ouch, that doesn't sound good. Even though it's out of warranty, you should check first with your mobile provider for a repair estimate.
Sorry!

My BlackBerry Curve 9380 is lost/stolen

Please help me...
How can I track my lost BlackBerry Curve 9380 by its pin? It has been stolen and I don't know what to do.
Note:
I don't have BlackBerry protect account and I think the thief through away my SIM card but am sure he must not be switched off the device.

Hello,
Please see this helpful thread:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Device-software-for-BlackBerry/Lost-or-Stolen-BlackBerry-What...
It is a pity you did not activate the FREE BB Protect app...it can be quite useful in your situation. But, like insurance, the time to prepare for this situation is BEFORE the need arises.
Good luck!

Hi ritikapal
Welcome to the Community
Sorry to hear about your problem but As you also known that this is just a user support forum ,here user like you and us try to help each other as much possible.
On your Home screen Go to Options > Device > Application Management > Move your Trackpad left or right on the screen to CPU USAGE... check which application(s) is using the CPU resorces.
Regarding your device problem if anybody told you that BlackBerry are meant only for calling I think he has a little knowledge about BlackBerry.Your device can handle much more application but it depends on the way we use it.pressing the menu key for a few second  will pop up a screen which will show all running programs in the background ,generally five will always there ( Home, BBM, Message,Phone , Browser ) look if any other apps. are running.
        Always try to Close Applications Correctly - Avoid using the End key to close applications as this simply minimizes the application and leaves it running in the background. Instead, press the Menu key, select the Close or Exit option to exit the application.If programs run in the background it will also lead to Battery drainage and also device hangs .Please have a look at this Article :
  KB14320 How to maximize battery life and free memory on the BlackBerry smartphone .
Try following those steps mentioned at the KB to see if your problem resolves.
If problem presists try it by youself :
1.Locate your Carrier and Download the OS you desire from here and Install it in your PC or Laptop Carriers
(make sure you are downloading for the same model as you have )
2. Download and install the latest BlackBerry desktop software from here BlackBerry desktop software
Then if it allow perform your backup of your device.
3.Search your C: drive for Vendor.xml and delete them, there may be one or two vendor.xml ( On your Pc change your folders option to show hidden files/folders ) :
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\Windows UserName\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
  4. Use BBSAK from http://bbsak.org/   and wipe the device then after you get the error 507 ( no OS ) then proceed to next step.
5. Go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader. (For 64-bit Vista or Windows 7, the path will be C: > Program Files x86 > Common Files > Research In Motion > AppLoader) double click Loader.exe.

Blackberry curve 9380 keeps crashing

hey,
my Blackberry curve 9380 (whcih i've had for 3 weeks) keeps crashing all the time, the loading square thingie appears and then it's stuck. after a while it even gives an error message. i tried pushing buttons, but the only solution so far is taking out the battery and re-installing it. then restart the phone (which normally takes 4 seconds but when it has crashed it takes 5 minutes...) i've installed the latest blackberry software, so that can't be it... can anyone please tell me why my blackberry curve 9380 keeps freaking out like that?
siincerely,
Kjaaps

the error message, i can't give any details, since i have given my cell back to the wtore as it still is in waranty and so they will search for the errors.
as for the loading clock, sometimes it just appears and then all of a sudden my cell blocks...., don't think that it's normal that that thing appears and blocks even when you're not using internet, or clearing cache, history, cookies etc... now i know this sounds vague and all, but since i've only had this cellphone for 3 weeks, i hadn't figured everything out.

I have installed the blackberry desktop manager and my PC still does not recognize my Blackberry. It just starts to charge and go on the clock face. My Blackberry is the V4,6.1.314..So, basically whenever I connect my Blackberry to my computer it just starts to charge!

Blackberry Curve 9310 won't reconfigure my Google email

I accidently pressed something on my Blackberry Curve 9310 and it caused all my phone calls and Google emails to run together for awhile. Well,I finally fixed that,but now I can't send any pictures from my phone to my Google email without me getting a message that I'm being redirected to the Setup Wizard because messaging isn't configured. I then get to Setup,press email accounts,and I'm stuck.....nothing happens. My phone won't do anything. I can read my emails,but cannot send anything to my email,and I like to send my pictures from my phone to my Google account to edit them before posting them online anywhere. I have tried the Service Book thing,but nothing works there either. Please help...this is very frustrating!!!

About Blackberry Curve 9380 Battery Warranty

Hi,
I have bought a BB Curve 9380 from Sharaf DG 4 U (Mirdiff Centre, UAE) dated 30-06-12. The phone is dead now as a result of a faulty Battery. I went to the Customer Service at Sharaf DG 4 U today and they are saying that there is no Blackberry warranty for Battery from the Manufacturer.
Guys, kindly help me out in finding a solution for this. Is it true that the BB Customers are not eligible for 6 months Battery warranty??
Looking forward to receive your opinions,
Regards,
Jaimon Joseph

Blackberry Curve 8520 Won't Lock! Help!

I recently purchased a new Blackberry Curve 8520, and it was working great, until a couple of days ago, when it starting not working.
Whenever I'd press the a* button to lock it like you're supposed to, it wouldn't lock.
I tried shutting it off and then turning it back on again, but it still won't lock.
It's really annoying, because I can't put it in my pocket without pocket-dialing someone from my contacts.
Any ideas on how to get it to lock again?
Solved!
