New Blackberry Curve 9360 is still charging at 18 hours. What is wrong?

I have a new blackberry curve 9360 that i got yesterday. i charged it first time (until 100%) for about 2-3 hours. then i did the usual downloads (bb app world, yahoo, emails, etc) and since it was already around 15%, i charged it. now, it has been charging for almost 18hours but it still is not 100% charged. is something wrong? is this normal? i heard of 16hours, but not of over that. pls help..

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Are you charging the device with a electric outlet charger or are you charging using the USB cable to your computer?
Thanks,

Many Recurring Problems w. new Blackberry Curve - 3 new phones in 2 months

I got the new blackberry Curve on Jan 1, 12 and right away started experiencing problems with the texting (as I have seen many on here having the same issue as well) - I am unable to scroll through texts. Switching it to "stripes" and not "bubbles" does not help. Pulling the battery doesn't even help anymore. I've had the phone exchanged twice already and each time, have had the same issue.
The other problem is that my internet consistently freezes on me - pulling the battery will only help for me to load the internet page fully once, then immediately stops loading after that. This is beyond frustrating and I don't see the point in exchanging the phone over and over again when clearly it is an issue with the curve itself. Please help! I really cannot be pulling my battery 20 times a day to perform the simplest of tasks.

Clarification to the above:
Running chmod on a given mbox file didn't help Mail import it. It still imported a folder that's empty and that would disappear after quitting and restarting Mail.
New mystery involving Smart folders:
Mail was able to download mail that was on my POP server (since September). I defined a few smart folders (to identify mail from given senders). These Smart folders see some of the messages from my backup. If I try to click on one of those old backed-up messages, it says that the message "has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it." But I don't have an IMAP account. Does this tantalising hint suggest that Mail sort-of sees my messages, and if it sort-of sees them, can we make Mail really see them?

Blackberry Curve 9360: How to fully turn off?

I have recently got a Blackberry Curve 9360 running on O2 UK and the latest update of OS 7 and love it, but want to turn it off over night without setting times for it to turn off and on. I have looked at many posts on forums and want to fully turn it off, as when i click the 'power off' icon or hold down the end key, it just goes into standby. when i set an alarm, it gives me the option to 'turn off' or 'full power off' but they both do the same thing. a battery pull does NOT work as it just turns on again straight away. Help me please!
thanks,

Ok, I've read what you said.
If you press and HOLD the "end call" key, far right of the trackpad, hold it for about 5-6 seconds, you should get TWO choices, power off and Full power off.

Update problems with blackberry curve 9360

I need help, I downloaded the latest software update for my blackberry curve 9360, during installation the freezes at 9%, I've looked everywhere for the answer to fix... I've tried safe mode but it doesn't let me select the 'OK' option, I downloaded the bb desktop software where it can find my phone but down the bottom right corner it just says connecting, would really appreciate the help

Hi and Welcome to the Community!

There are two methods of recovery for you to try:
One:
Open Blackberry Desktop Software & Connect your device with PC using USB cable, without inserting battery.
You will get three option Retry, Update Or Cancel, then click on update.
Once it is to the stage of the update "initializing handheld", then insert battery.
If this does not work, and you remain stuck on the backing up the Social Feeds database, go to the second method below.
Secondly:
Start your BlackBerry in Safe mode. Article ID: KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Modehttp://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB17877
Connect to the BlackBerry Desktop Software and allow your handheld to connect. If you are prompted to upgrade, cancel the upgrade for later.
IF you cannot connect or your Desktop Software does not recognize your device while in Safe Mode, please follow the directions here to force the detect:  Article ID: KB10144 How to force the detection of the BlackBerry smartphone using Application Loader
Go to Device > delete > SELECT DATA > select to delete both the Social Feeds and Smart Card databases, and follow the remaining prompts to complete it.
Now, you can return and click to upgrade the device through the Desktop Manager, or reboot the BlackBerry in normal mode and continue the over the air upgrade.

Can't connect my blackberry curve 9360 to my internet home router

hey everyone, so I have a blackberry curve 9360 and I wanted to connect my blackberry to my home router while I'm at home, but away from the computer, so I did this:
-I went to Manage Connections
-I went to Wi-Fi Network
-My network at home, which is my saved network, shows up and I click on it
-instead of asking for a passcode even though it shows that my home internet is locked, it immediately starts trying to connect to my internet, and then says "Failed to authenticate against the network"
Since this happens ALL THE TIME, I went to "other ways to connect", then "Wi-Fi Protected Setup" and I see that the two options are "Press button on router" or "Enter PIN into router."
So I clicked the first choice and it tells me to press the Wi-Fi Protected Setup button on my wireless router or its administration screen. That will probably get my internet working on my Blackberry, but I have no idea what this is asking
Someone please help meee!

1. Delete the saved home WiFi network from your BlackBerry saved WiFi profiles.
2. Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
3. Reboot your WiFi router (unplug the incoming internet cable and the power input for a minute, reinsert both and let it the router restart.
4. On your BlackBerry, return the WiFi setup and select your home router name when it sees it. If you asked again for the "Press button on router" or "Enter PIN into router." methods, click your escape key once and you should go back to be able enter the password for your router.
good luck.

Blackberry curve 9360 shuts down even when full battery

Can pls help to resolve? Thanks. appreciate.

try
The on-device battery meter is 'off sync' with the actual battery charge. There are a couple of ways you can try to repair this...
Leave the device to charge an hours or so, and then, still connected to the charging cable, remove the the battery from the device a few seconds and reinsert it. Watch over the next couple of days to see if the charge and the battery use is in sync.
Roughly every 30 charges, deliberately discharge your battery to 10-15%, and fully charge to 100% afterwards. This will help maintain the accuracy of the “fuel gauge” on the device (your battery meter or scale).
Don’t drain your battery every day to 10-20% of its charge. You can actually expect battery problems by draining the battery. Again, to repeat, top-off your charge during the day whenever convenient – even ten minutes in the car or at your desk will give you an extra 20-25% charge.

Blackberry Curve 9360 Frequently shutting down at random

Having some real issues with my blackberry shutting down at random. Somtimes in my pocket, somtimes when its just sitting on a table, often several times in a day. No, before you ask, its not getting unlocked and shut down by accident. Ensured its not just a low battery issue, as it happens even when it has been fully charged for several hours. When it eventually boots back up, it seems to have forgotten the time and date. It is, very inconvieniant. I am however by no means an expert when it comes to phones, as this is the first one i've had that does anything more than call and text, so any help or advice anyone could give would be greatly appriciated.
Random Details:
Provider: Orange
Model: Curve 9360
OS System: Had some real issues finding this, ill write down what i found (though its probably incorrect). 7.0 bundle 1825 (v7.0.0.400).
The only app i've downloaded onto it is sky news, and the battery has been replaced and played with many different ways to no improvement.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
If your BB remains under warranty, it may be just as well to cease any further diagnostics and seek support from your warranty service provider.
Good luck and let us know!
