Failure of BB button blackBerry Smartphones

First of all

Hi all

* waves autour at all... * This is my first time here, so please be gentle and excuse all stupid questions lol.

I had my first BB a year ago and I have cherished it since day 1. However, just went Thursday it froze in Mid-text.  My only option was to do hard reset and remove the battery. As a result I left it for a while to resolve. However since then, Ive was only able to put the battery back in and use the touch screen to access the texts/calls/etc. Of this, im not able to use the buttons to answer/reject calls or to access the menu options.

I tried different things to try to fix this (including the OS update) and now im at a total loss.

Any /advice help would be greatly appreciated

Sorry I don't have a magic to offer

as anything electronic, it broke after a while

  • Button blackBerry Smartphones BB Curve 8320 unexpected behavior

    Hi community

    I now own a BB Curve 8320, which arrived March 7 th 2010 with OS v4.2.

    Having previously & successfully upgraded the OS on my BB 8310 curve which has an expensive screen problem, I downloaded OS v4.5 for BB Curve 8320.

    I used this download: 8320EastAsia_PBr4.5.0_rel108_PL2.7.0.78_A4.5.0.81_Voda_Australia

    Everthing seems to work very well; the OS upgrade completed successfully and before & after reloading the data from Outlook I could access the menu via the Menu button & do what I needed.

    However, after some time of operation (i.e. on 1 or more hours), random unit see the menu when I press the Menu key and I can't answer calls by pressing the Green Telephone button.

    Instead, this key and a few others will produce strange characters (e.g., Yi) in applications that can accept text, or does nothing.

    I tried to help me with this problem by making a following and after:

    Battery grips.
    Hold the alt key, then press and hold SHIFT to the right, then press DELETE.
    Reload the OS after the failure with JL_Cmder v1.9.1

    I have read on this forum or on crackberry that I should consider the moisture under the keyboard and then proceeds to remove the battery and SIM and SD card then proceeds to the hair dryer the unit for a short period.

    RESULT = everything works again for a short while (a few hours), then it will repeat the above behavior.

    I'm a bit there is a simple fix of BB Curve 8320 or setting changes that I'm missing.

    The 8310 has been solid on the performance... and honestly that miss me.

    Please put me out of my misery.

    Who is blessed,

    Hello community,

    After trying my own idea and add some silica GEL for the bowl to rice taking into my BB Curve 8320 & leaving for 2 days, I took out the camera fed up and had a brainwave.

    I occurred to me that since this routine 'your BB dry' had not given a complete solution, while it was time to open the unit and correct what was going on inside.

    So... on March 15, I found a local repair shop, said the problem, as well as to what this forum (thanks JSanders) suggest that he was wrong and ignored the diagnostic charge.

    Finally, there is some minor corrosion under the keyboard, which he corrected and cleaned up.
    I asked the tech if I took the phone to him at the time, and he said yes, that I didn't have to worry.

    So now, I have a BB Curve 8320 with interchangeable spare parts of my BB Curve 8310.

    CONCLUSION.

    I think that rice and the desiccant, drying methods are best used to DELAY the progression of moisture damage.

    However, if this does not solve the problem... then you must go into the unit. (i.e. you or a tech)

    Don't get too long..time is essential due to the miniaturization of circuit traces are very small and corrosion can quickly make the device unusable.

    Who is blessed,

  • My button blackBerry smartphones 'About' does not work HELP

    Hello fellow BB owners ive been tweaking and updating my new 8330 and it appears that now my about button does not respond. All other menus and sites work fine, but when I click on the subject of button it does not.

    Thanks in advance

    Jason

    Jason, have you recently updated your device to the 4.5 OS, and in this process did remove voice activated dialing features? If you did, which also disables the Options > on screen and probably explained in the upgrade process you have used.

    Solution: on the home screen, press on and hold the ALT key while typing E A C E

    or

    Press ALT + rightSHIFT + H at the same time.

    See the link below to download it and follow these simple instructions.

  • Button of browser blackBerry Smartphones No. on curve 9300?

    Hi all, my original BB curve 9300 was stolen - son he has liked it so much I bought another one from an Internet auction site. All was well until my son has noticed there was no browser button. I rang vodafone who said that everything was fine with his contract. They helped me through the access remote and backed up, then tried to restore and update all nothing done. The only thing they think is that it is a business phone where a company buys a quantity of phones to give to employees, but they do not surf the net, so it is disabled. My question is, is that correct? Can do something to restore the navigation, or is it something else?
    Thanks Nicky

  • BlackBerry Smartphones lock button does not work after update

    Since the last update on my Blackberry Bold 9780 the 'lock' button no longer works.  How to solve this?

    You can try without decommissioning of your BlackBerry smartphone to the previous version to test it for me?

    Plug your smart phone BlackBerry on your PC and then launch the BlackBerry Desktop Software.  Before you do anything that this, backup your device.  Then click on the device and then update.  Choose see other Versions in the pop up screen then choose 6.0.0.461 from the list.

    If you can try this when you have the opportunity, so I would like to know if the lock button works, it will be useful in the diagnosis, be it a bug of software or a physical problem with the device.  You can let me know the results.

    Thank you!

    • Each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes. See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    I hope that will move things again for you! If not, then you should try remove and re-add your BIS configuration for these accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile provider for formal support, based on the error message, it seems that the e-mail from RIM server is the issue, but to reach the RIM support, you must be up to your provider.

    Good luck!
