BlackBerry 8900 smartphones will be no more power up and a red light blinks!

I have a new 8900 and put in place all OK.  It now will not power and all I have is the red light flashes intermittently. Have tried removing the battery but no joy.

Someone at - it ideas please?

If your BlackBerry is still under tension turned off with a black screen, follow the instructions below. The only indication of life may be the flashing red indicator light in the upper corner. Nothing seems to wake and Desktop Manager does not recognize that a device is connected.

(1) make sure that you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/services/desktop/
(2) on your PC, go to start > run and copy and paste the following line exactly (i.e. with quotation marks):

'c:\program files\common research in motion\apploader\loader.exe' /nojvm

(3) the Application Loader Wizard will appear - click on "next".
(4) in the ' connection: ' drop-down menu, you should see "USB - PIN: UNKNOWN". Click on the button "next".
(5) you should see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Press Next and finish, and that you are well on your way to get your Blackberry to life.  Just unplug and let the process finish completely.

NOTE: If you do not display the list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead to see the message "the Blackberry Desktop Software has no Blackberry Device Software for the device you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator', then you must download the Blackberry operating system for your support and your device.
http://www.BlackBerryFAQ.com/index.php/BlackBerry_Operating_System_Downloads
Just select the appropriate type of carrier and network, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the steps above again and you should be on the right track.

  • Browser blackBerry storm Smartphones will not change views?

    Hey,.

    I had my storm for a few weeks.  Out of nowhere, just today, the browser is locked in landscape mode.  Whenever I turn it on it remains in the same position, even if I flip to landscape the opposite effect.  He is stuck in the same position.  My accelerometer works well because the menu, messages, e-mails, etc. all change view very well.  Someone knows how to fix this? It's really annoying.  I usually use the portrait for web browsing, anyway.

    Hello

    I think you can try two things: the soft reboot, and if it does not, the hard reboot. Don't worry, you can not lose data with these two reboots.

    Soft reboot:
    1) struck the following three keys at the same time:
    -Alt
    -Left shift
    -Remove
    (2) wait 2 minutes for the Blackberry to wake up.

    Hard reboot:
    (1) your BlackBerry smart phone is on
    (2) remove the battery and wait a minute
    (3) replace the battery
    (4) wait 5 minutes for the device to wake up.

    Please tell us if it works for you.

  • BlackBerry 8900 Smartphones keypress questions

    My BB 8900 from T-Mobile is having problems on keyboard - it does not seem to recognize when I press any key on the device, but roll the trackball still seem to work. Clicking on it does not work. However, I can't be sure of that since I can't get through the lock screen. Also, when the screen goes black, I can't wake him again without getting a charger and plugging him. It is not frozen, as the time displayed on the device still happening. I did like 5 battery pulls and every time I got the same result.

    This looks like what I've seen several times on a device with moisture damage.

    Even sitting on a countertop bath during a hot steamy shower or bath can cause problems with keyboard and trackball up to this JUST-withered.

    Does seem likely?  Really, it is more common than you think.

    1 the battery immediately! Do not turn on your BlackBerry device.

    2. allow the device to dry in a warm, dry place for 3 to 5 days * (see below)

    3. DO NOT "check it every day" by placing the battery in. Leave what would to dry completely. It takes time. Replacing the battery to check it can damage only (humidity + power = disaster).

    3. If the unit is hot after the drying period, let it cool to room temperature before placing the battery in the.

    * Suggestions on your BlackBerry in a warm dry place (open, with battery):

    • Place the BB in a container of dry uncooked rice, and then you can also place it in one of the locations mentioned below.
    • On top of all heat dry emitting electronic components: TV or CRT, LCD, TV cable box / Satellite or plasma monitor
    • On the dashboard of your car on a day sunny
  • BlackBerry 8900 Smartphones not charging

    Hello

    If she does not always change after a few hours, then there are 2 possibilities.

    1. you can connect a battery of 9v to your BB battery, this will give him a helping hand to start the charging process.

    2. your battery is dead and you need to buy a new 1.

    Good luck

    5. go to computer / driver C / program files (x 86) / Common files / research in motion / application loader / LOADER

    6. click on LOADER and follow the prompt.

    7. it will take time to recognize your PIN or your device. Just continue clicking NEXT until it pass.

    8. after that it will inspire you by selecting your language, then a page with "finish or close" is displayed just click on one of them for the process to move forward.

    9. a loading bar will appear. When you receive an error message that says something like "cannot detect the device.

    It's time for step 10.

    10 replace the battery
    and click on 'Retry '.

  • BlackBerry 8900 Smartphones: all keys + Trackball won't work.

  • BlackBerry 8900 smartphones, email problem after OS 5 upgrade

    Hello

    I guess it's the last resort for finding a solution to my problem. I hope I'm not repeating a topic previously started by someone else.

    In any case this morning received a notification that there is finally an update to OS 4.6. * lot of 5 BONES 1682. Updated the BB Desktop Manager, supported the phone it is autonomous and has started the upgrade.

    Subsequently, I basically ran a main problem, even if all my emails have been restored, it seems, some mailboxes are not visible in the traditional sense of the term, (I took the part of menu "Show all", looked through all the folders, etc.). But they all have is E-mail 2 mailboxes that contain some unsent emails from months back. If I look in the menuish 'messages' thing (home screen, displays all the messages in all mailboxes) emails are all there, Ditto for the '-> options' ' status-> "sizes of database"->"messages".
    I know this is a complicated explanation, sorry.

    The most visible example:

    I have 5 setting up email on the phone. 2 on gmail, personal accommodation 2 and 1 from blackberry.com

    As far as it goes for personal accounts and blackberry, all there is, nothing 'missing', but I can't say the same for the gmail those.

    If I choose the menu "filter"-> check the box of "AllMail", then I get to see everything, but only until I leave the screen and everything must be redone.

    Even if a new installation of operating system seems to be the only solution perhaps there is something that I have not yet examined. A roll to 4.6 is an option, because there is no significant change.

    Using BB 8900 v5.0.0.1036 (bundle 1682, platform 5.2.0.104)

    Carrier: Vimpelcom (Beeline), Russia

    Official purchase if that matters)

    Hope someone could help me, thanks in advance

    Mike

    Eh_bien it seems that I have found the problem and resolved, although I can't be sure if cela an acceptable or official, but it works and im fine with it.)

    There seems to be confilict with enhanced gmail plugin and OS 5, which results in the change of filter, so basically the best way is to remove the plugin via BBSAK:

    Use BBSAK and delete the following three files of COD:

    net_rim_bb_gmail. COD
    net_rim_bb_gmail_resource__en. COD
    net_rim_bb_gmail_help_en. COD

    For some reason I thought any thorugh the updater of Blackberry that there is no update available for my phone which is 4.6.1.231.

  • BlackBerry 8530 smartphones will not be recognized by computer

    I have a 8530 with 1.5 free space that will not be recognized by my operating system Windows Professional 7 600 G. I uninstalled BB OS, re-installed and restarted my computer several times, the driver will not be recognized by the computer. I tried updating the driver, but it won't take. "Software for USB MTP device cannot start." On the device driver, the BB Phone and USB composite device work properly, but the "RIM MS/DPW does not start." So the whole device is not recognized as a device on the system.

    As for the device driver files:

    C:\Windows\System 32\Drives\wpdMtpDr.dll

    C:\windows\system32\Drives\winusb.sys

    C:windows\system32\DrivesWUDFRd.sys

    C:windows\system32\WpdMtp.dll

    C:windows\system32\WpdMMtpUS.dll

    The driver will not be displayed in the computer, but the BB phone says: "File version 6.1.7600.16385. Victory 7_rtm.090713 - 1255.

    Fortunately, I can synchronize my data in the Organizer, but I can't transfer photos or music.

    Can someone help me?

    Well, it's a shame... I tried to write, with links to all sorts of instructions step by step, so that almost anyone could do. The only really "dangerous" part is the register edition... and you can skip past, and I hope that things will still work. Is there a specific portion of this set of instructions that you fear excessive?

    Otherwise, I hope you find another solution that solves your problems.

    Good luck!
