Pearl 8100 Charges When Phone off but not On

My phone charges fine thru wall and USB charging while the phone is turned off but will not charge with either when turned on. When I first plugged it into my laptop, the phone said something to the effect of USB charge not sufficient. Since then, I've downloaded the manager and latest driver.
Any ideas?

When you plug your BlackBerry into the wall charger while its on do you see that message about the charge not sufficient? Also have a look at the article below about turning off power management:

Hope this helps.

HT1476 Anyone experience that the phone will not begin charging when plugged in, but must be rebooted while plugged in for phone to begin recharging?

Seems like battery is faulty. Make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple for resolution under Warranty.

can some one help please, i have followed all of apples advice!!

"i have followed all of apples advice!!"
No idea what this means, unless you say what you have tried. When you say that you have tried "all", it really does not encourage anyone to make suggestions. If you have tried it all, then, by definition, there is nothing left to try.

Phone won't charge when shut off

I have a new Blackberry Classic and most of the time the phone won't charge when it's shut off. It's not a problem with the charger, as the phone will charge when it's turned on. Sometimes (not all of the time), I can get it to charge when shut off by turning the phone on and off a few times. It's also not a question of the charging lights not working, as I've left it turned off and plugged in overnight, and the charge will be less in the morning than the night before.
Aside from this, the END CALL button normally turns the phone on and shuts it off (as it did on the Bold) when the phone is unplugged. When the phone is plugged in though, the END CAll button won't turn the phone on.
All of this makes me wonder whether the phone has some underlying power/charging problems that will get worse as the phone gets older.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks for the advice everyone, the software update solved the problem.
QM, even without the software update the phone should charge when it's turned on. Is the battery so dead that the phone can't even be turned on? If that's the case, then I would return it. Otherwise, I would plug the phone in, turn it on, wait for the battery to charge and then do a software update.

TA44551 My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work.

I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work. I tried to restore it again and charged it in three different locations with different cables. etc but nothing. Suggestions?

- After charging for 1/2 hour or so, does iTunes see the iPod? If yes, restore the iPod from backup.
- If no, se if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:

Droid X battery will not charge when phone is in vehicle mount

Droid X battery will not charge when phone is in vehicle mount. If you plug phone directly in to car charger it charges fine. This makes using the GPS virtually useless as it runs down the battery very fast. Anyone else have this problem. Other wise I love the phone.

Many of the Verizon Droid X car mounts have defective wires in them. This problem is widely reported on many forums and websites. You should return your product for a brand new replacement that is not defective (that is, the car charger will charge your Droid X when it is in the car mount).
I happen to love the Verizon Droid X car mount. Lot of ways to adjust it from different angles for different placements. Just get a Verizon Droid X car mount replacement that does not have defective wires in it, and it should work just fine!

HT1476 My iPhone 4S will charge on a laptop but not from a wall plug. I have tried different boxes and different USB cords from the wall but none work. These boxes and USB cords work for other family members with iPhones. I'm stumped :/

My iPhone 4S will charge on a laptop but not from a wall plug. I have tried different boxes and different USB cords from the wall but none work. These boxes and USB cords work for other family members with iPhones and a USB cord that works from the laptop won't work from 3 or 4 different wall boxes that work for others. I'm stumped :/

Update: It seems as though the phone will charge if I plug it in and then turn it off. It will not charge while the phone is on. Also iTunes will not recognize it, so I can't sync or anything. I read somewhere that it could be a fuse somewhere?? Or maybe the dock connector. Where is the best place to get this repaired?

My iPad 1 won't hold a charge for very long and will only fully charge when turned off while plugged in. Will a full reset fix this?

maybe but
most likely no
if you have many apps running and using data and localization at the same time yes maybe
but batteries get worse and worse and worse over time until they die a software reset will not change that

HT1386 I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S). I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone. But not sure how to do that.

But not sure how to do that. When I open iTunes it has a button that say "Back Up iPhone", but I'm not sure what that does. When I go into the sync options it say I have another user account and asks me if I want to merge of replace. I'm assuming it's trying to tell me I have an older iTunes Library, but don't know that. Geez, maybe people over 60 shouldn't have iPhones, iTunes just bafles me.

Can you choose to block phone calls but not texts from a number?

So I have searched all over the place and have not found an answer. I am sure someone has blocked me from calling them because when I try to call them I recieve this message: "Welcome to Verizon Wireless. The number you were trying to reach has calling restrictions which has prevented the completion of your call."However I am wondering if they can still receieve my texts. I have sent two and they both show that they have been delivered on my phone and they both also show up on my online bill as having been sent from me and recieved to the number that I am pretty sure has blocked me. Does Verizon allow someone to block just phone calls but not text messages? Or if you block a number from calling does that mean texting from that same number is automatically blocked as well (or is it two seperate processes)? I understand it may look like it has been sent on my end, but I am wondering, since I never got a "message failed" indicator or anything else telling me they never got it, if they were able to receive and read the 2 messages? We both are Verizon customers by the way. Thanks!!!

That person did block you, and no they cannot receive or read your texts.

IPad 3rd gen no longer charges unless shut off and not recognized by iTunes

iPad 3rd gen no longer charges unless shut off and not recognized by iTunes. Done 2 resets, used original charger and cable and bought brand new charger and cable from Apple store. Nothing works. This started yapping after the iOS 7.1.1 update.

Common troubleshooting is to try a different USB port and to give your ipad a reset. (hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot)
You can also try on a different computer to see if it's the ipad or the computer.
When you charge, do you try to charge plugged into the wall? that's the best way to charge.
If you go through all that and it's still not working hten it may be time to make an appointment at your local apple store and have them check it out

FIOS remote can turn TV off but not on? (Westinghouse LCD TV)

Westinghouse model CW26S3CW 26" LCD HDTV. Weirdest thing happening and that is I am able to get the FIOS remote to do everything but turn the TV on. I have contacted Westinghouse and they are saying to use the Sanyo or Samsung codes but they don't work. I have different types of FIOS remotes and have tried them all to no avail. I'm just dumbfounded how a FIOS remote can turn the TV off but not on.... Westinghouse must have some real whacked out technology that on and off are done differently. Anybody have a solution to this problem?

I'm having this problem, started about a week ago. I tried a factory reset and it did not help. I have model 46G300U1. Unplugging the TV is the only way that I know it will stay off.
TV will randomly turn itself back on. It does not always happen after a few seconds. For example, last night I turned off the TV and sat in the same room for a few minutes and it did not turn back on. However, when I checked this morning, it was back on.
I'm running the latest firmware.

- What happens when you try? Error message?
- Is the email addrese listed on her iPod in Settings>Messages>Send and receive?
- Is the same email address listed on your device in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive? If so it will not work.
