The keypad on my phone is kind of dead, anyone can help?

I just purchased my blackberry curve online and received yesterday. At the beginning, everything was great, I can make phone calls, edit address book, change phone tunes etc. And 1 or 2 hours later, suddenly the screen kept showing "Uuouououou......" like someone keeps pressing keys "u" and "o", and of course nobody touched the phone, not even myself. The phone is like totally getting crazy by itself. Then I tried to press "del" or red phone key to delete or turn off the phone, either not working at all. I had to take out the battery, and put it back on after few minutes. Now it's even more interesting because only the trackball can move but none of other keys working. I can't call the original seller for help because now is the weekend. So I wonder if anyone here can help me figure out what the hell is wrong with my phone. It's just like a weird computer virus completely disabled my keypad but I swear to god I don't even have internet service and that tiny memory card yet. So, it's like this freaking problem just come out from nowhere. Please, I need help very very much. Tell me whatever possible. Thank you!

You bought it used off eBay?
Remove the battery and examine the inside housing of the device, looking for a small 1/8" sqaure white stick usually up above the battery housing near the SIM or Media Card insertion area. Is it white?
Honestly, the symptoms you descibe are common to moisture or liquid damage to BlackBerrys.
My personal recommendation is to return the device to your seller and get your full refund back.

    You cannot uninstall the update. Apple does not support downgrading. What troubleshooting have you done? Start with a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. Are you syncing contacts with iCloud?

    I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

  • I am having problem with me Iphone4, looks like the mic of my phone is not working. no one can hear me if I make a call to them

    Can any one please help me I am having problem with me Iphone4, looks like the mic of my phone is not working. no one can hear me if I make a call to them. I have tried all restoring options but no use. please help me

    The mic on my iPhone4 has just quit also. Similar symptoms to yours in that people I'm talking to hear only static or my voice very faintly. The voice/memo recorder also only really records static.
    It happened suddenly and seemed to get better after a day or two but then went completely after another day.
    I'm returning it to Vodafone New Zealand shortly but will have to wait 5-10 days for a replacement. There are NO Apple accredited means to speed this procedure up in NZ.
    We don't even have a single physical Apple Store where you could walk in and talk to a Genius.

    Place the iPod in Recovery Mode and restore via iTunes.

    Upgrading the iOS "over-the-air" was introduced with iOS 5. If you are currently running an iOS version < 5.0 you can only update through iTunes. Connect your iPad to your PC or Mac. Open iTunes and click on "Check for updates"

  • I just downloaded iOS 6 to my iPhone 4 and all-of-sudden, the camera on the back of my phone isn't working.  Anyone know how to fix this?

    The SMS links thing is highly annoying. You don't have to copy/paste however. You should see an icon like this: (>) to the right of the text bubble with the link. Tap on that, the in the screen that opens, tap "Visit".
    Alternatively, you can tap twice directly on the link, then hold your finger down after the second tap.
    Still unnecessarily difficult, but not as bad as copy/paste.
    What I don't get is why can't I find any mention of this change or how to fix it (if even possible) elsewhere online?

  • Hi, I cannot be heard when iam on the phone? Does anyone can help me?

    Hi, I cannot be heard when iam on the phone? Does anyone can help me?

    Thank you for the feedback.  I still cannot locate the actual Audio file to listen to the book though.  I can look on my iPhone and see that it says the book is downloaded but I cannot find it anywhere on the actual phone.  I can listen to the Audiobook from my computer, but can't see it anywhere on my iPhone, which is where I really need it.  When I plug in my old iPhone 4, it is still listed and I can listen to it. 
    It is not listed under Music, TV Shows, Movies, Audiobooks, Tones, Purchased or Downloads. 
    Screenshot from new iPhone 5. It says the Audiobook is downloaded.
    Screenshot from old iPhone 4: (This is how I used to listed to my Audiobook before I upgraded to iPhone 5)
    Once I clicked on "Purchased" on the iPhone 4...my Audio files are listed and I could click on them and play. 
    (iPhone 4 screenshot)
    Now when I try to go to the same screen on my new iPhone 5, the Purchased button doesn't exist on my Downloads screen and I can't seem to locate the actual Audio Files anywhere, although the phone says they are downloaded and the iTunes App on my PC states that they synched to the phone.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only locate, lock or erase your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.

  • I am using iPhone 5. I have a smart playlist that shows the 25 most play songs within the last 3 months. However, the list on my phone got completely messed up. Please help me.

    I am using iPhone 5. I have a smart playlist that shows the 25 most play songs within the last 3 months. However, the list on my phone got completely messed up. Please help me.

    First thought:  Have you used the same Apple ID for all the purchases you're talking about?  If not, that could cause an issue.
    Assuming you've used the same Apple ID all the way through everything you're talking about, here's the second set of questions:
    When you say you can't play the songs from the iPhone playlist, can you see the playlist on the iPhone?  Is the song visible in the playlist?  Is it visible under "Songs" in iTunes on your iPhone?  Is it visible in "Albums" on your iPhone?  Is the song in iCloud?

  • In Lion, sometimes clicking on close button or tabs doesn't respond as if the buttons aren't there, i have to move the cursor away and move back to make them work again, anyone can help me?

    I'm not sure if anyone had run into this issue. Clicking the same place on the display sevral times will cause the click to stop working. For example, if i open safari and click on the Show Reading List button, it will work the first time i click it, but stop responding to my command as i click more, as if the button is not there, i have to move away the cursor and click somewhere else and move back to click the button to make it work again. And it happened everywhere, not just the show reading list button. The scrolling and moving are normal.
    In fact, I have my trackpad replaced in an apple store for this issue but it turned out this is not a hardware problem, and it is not only my problem. Ironically, i found the same issue on several of the demo Macs inside the apple store. So anyone can help me here? Thanks.

    Hi manni394, what version of Firefox are you running now?
    Firefox 22 has a new way of setting the default zoom level: it is based on your Windows font size setting. So, if you set Windows fonts to 125% (enlarged 25%), your Firefox pages also will be enlarged 25%. On pages that do not adjust their layout, you may get a horizontal scroll bar.
    To reduce the zoom on a page, hold Ctrl and tap the - key (the one on the numeric keypad or the one on the number row of the keyboard). The zoom should be reduced for each tap.
    If you want to globally adjust your zoom level to be lower, you can use either of these add-ons:
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/ Default FullZoom Level]
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/ NoSquint]
    If you already have one of those add-ons, check the default/global zoom level in case it needs to be adjusted.

    This is a scam. Do not phone these people, at best they will charge you for unnecessary 'cleaning' and at worst they will gain access to your Mac and steal your data. You've probably managed to install some 'adware' which is producing this fake warning. 'Adwaremedic' should remove it and is safe to use - please see
