In the 9500 Storm blackBerry Smartphones moisture damage

I live in Austria (Vienna) and use for a Storm 9500 year and unfortunately the last 2 months of serious malfunctions

Hi and welcome to the Forums!

Moisture damage can happen in many ways. He has been known to be caused by the simple starting with a BB in a small bathroom with a hot shower running... steam has been known to be sufficient to cause this. And no, these damages are generally not covered by the warranty (if your warranty is between you and your business... so only you and they can tell with certainty). Your warranty is a contract between you and your business - this contract is in control of what remedies are available to you. Nobody here can replace.

If taken quickly, the steps described in this FAQ have been known to be useful to some:

Good luck!

    1. make sure that you set your own code to the Dialer phone screen > Options > smart dialing.
    Set your country Code in this format: "+ xx" where xx = country code. Some countries have two or three-digit country Codes. Do not place not the '+' in the entrance of your contact.
    * In the United States, the value of this country as '+ 1' Code and place your code in the appropriate box (this normally the default setting in a new BB).

    2. in the same place, change the length of National number for the number of digits corresponding to your country (since some countries have less than 10 as that set by default in the BB). Check out the total numbers, less country code. Do not place not the '+' in the entrance of your contact.
    * For example, some countries have a total number to 8 (more than 3 for the country code). You must enter '8 '.

  • Lock button on the Curve 9380 blackBerry Smartphones

    Hello

    I hope someone can help.  My Blackberry as has recently developed it a problem where the bolt touches the habit ' work.

    I tried several resets masters by removing the battery and the SIM one frame and then leave.

    She also now further developed where the phone is locked or goes into applications with instructions.

    I'm a few months upgrade if you need this binding

    any help would be appreciated.

    This looks like what I've seen several times on a device with moisture damage.
    Even sitting on a counter in the bathroom during a steamy shower bath, or hot in a humid gym locker or against kitchen when there is high humidity, can cause problems with keyboard and trackball up to properly dry. 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).
    4. 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 rice uncooked dry, and then you can also place it in one of the locations mentioned below.
    * On top of any 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

  • Storm BlackBerry Smartphones new

    I've had my storm for a little over a month now and have had some problems. When the phone works well, it's amazing, but I feel like I need some answers. I realize that they probably were all answers here already, but I don't have the time/patience to find if all discussions to find... Any help on this would be much appreciated.

    #1 I already scratched the screen a bit, as I expected. Cures? Repairs? AIDS?

    #2 the storm seems much slow down and/or freeze? Why? Cure?

    #3 any means to improve the battery life? It's decent, but still seems short sometimes.

    #4 orientation seems sometimes a little confused or risk of stuck and the screen doesn't flip.

    #5 if it goes dead it takes forever to load up and it shuts down the antenna?

    #6 the program computer-blackberry jams and does not work very well at all.

    That's all... Seems like a lot, but really is not. Love the phone, looking for some answers/solutions to the theses of the little hiccup.

    I'll try to answer some of your questions.

    (1) the scratches on the screen is most likely on the plastic screen protector that came on your phone.  Just remove it and all these scratches will be gone.  Your storm screen is very durable, and some people said you don't need coverage of the protection screen.

    (2) if it is slow, you may have other applications running.  Best thing to do is a battery pull and see if things speed up.

    (3) the best way to improve the battery life is to turn off Bluetooth when not in use.  Turn off GPS.  Make sure that you are not on the global network and update network 1XEV.

    (4) if all goes well they will be able to fix this in the future.

    (5) not a good idea to drain your battery to death because that will harm the battery and damage it.  Always load before it affects 20% of life.

    (6) do a battery pull.

    Good luck and let us know if one of these suggestions helped.

  • Problems with my Storm blackBerry Smartphones

    Hello everyone, I bought a Storm 9500 during a trip to the States and I have problems with it. First of all, he started resetting itself evert 5 minutes so I did a battery pull, but it did not work. Then I tried to soft upgrade and it worked for like 4 days now, it does nothing. I am trying to reflash phone but nothing seems to work... Today, I plugged the phone and after 6 minutes it connected and started to blink but only turned on the lower part of the phone. I would like to know where to send my phone so that it can be fixed cause I really like it and do not want to change. Thanks for any help on this matter. BTW, he is 2 months old

    You must call your carrier for tech support and warranty. RIM offers service guarantee by the carriers.

    If you bought a used (no carriers in the United States even selling the 9500, Verizon sells the 9530 here in the United States), it will be difficult for you to get warranty service.

    Your first and best bet is to call the place where you bought.

    In the meantime, I recommend that it seems that the battery could be dead. To do this.

    Leave the appliance to charge 2-3 hours and then, always toujours relie connected to the USB cable, remove the battery from the camera a few seconds and plug it back. If it starts - let - the charges to 100% (check the Options > status for the percentage).

    If it does not start - try using a wall charger if you're not. If you are connected via USB to the computer, make sure that you have Desktop Manager (or USB device drivers), you can download it below.

    Make sure that your USB cable is connected to one of the main rear USB ports of the PC. A USB hub, or USB Monitor port not a USB port on the front of the PC.

    Download Desktop Manager here:

  • Help on the home screen blackBerry Smartphones nothing will work!

    MY blackberry curve is locked on the main menu and I can move the trackball but I can't click on what whether, or type anything, I deleted it and put again but still nothing, also when the backlight turns off it won't restart! Help please!

    Is there damage to the water? Open the battery compartment and check indicators on the battery and in the Bay of roses. Apparently, you do not have dropped the phone in water so that he could get moisture damage and it plays havoc on the keyboard and trackball. If the indicators are pink and then remove the battery and place the phone in a dry place, for example in front of an air conditioner. Give him a few days to dry, and then try again.

    If this isn't the problem then this is may be defective. You're under? Generally, you are covered for 1 year then try and get a replacement.

    • Open Blackberry Desktop Software & connect your device with the PC using the USB cable, without inserting the battery.
    • You have three Retry option, update or cancel, and then click Update.
    • Once it is at the stage of the "initialization of pocket" update, then insert the batteries.
    • If this does not work, and you get stuck on the safeguarding of social data feeds, go to the second method below.

    Second:

  • BlackBerry Bold 9900 not saved the network of Blackberry smartphones

    Hello

    I have Blackberry data services with my provider of Meteor, and that they worked with my previous Blackberry 9900. I had to replace it and bought a second-hand 9900, which was a feature of company on the Vodafone network. I have unlocked it and I am able to use the SIM for calls and connect to the internet via wifi, but I'm unable to activate Blackberry internet services. Host Routing Tables are empty and I can't save. In addition, in the e-mail settings, I get only the ability to create a company account.

    I did a full factory reset and I tried to save the Tables in routing host several times but nothing happens.

    Thank you

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Start here please... you did some, but not all, these necessary things:

    • Article ID: KB05099 Steps to take before selling or after the purchase of a used BlackBerry smartphone

    In addition, please check this:

    • Article ID: KB30076 How to check for an it on a BlackBerry smartphone policy

    If there is a COMPUTER policy, please will then this:

    • Article ID: KB31291 How to reset a BlackBerry smartphone to factory using BlackBerry Desktop Software Settings

    Finally, after all that, with a strong network carrier (for example, not only WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2, each should result in a message from your BB... Please wait just before moving on to the next step):

    1) register HRT

    • KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with wireless network
    • Please wait a 'registration' message reach your Messages application

    2) Remove and return Service books

    • KB05000 Remove the maintenance book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account in the BlackBerry smartphone
    • If you do not have access CMIME, continue deleting
    • KB02830 Send the directories for the BlackBerry Internet Service
    • Please wait "the Activation' Messages, one per already configured e-mail account, arrive in your Messages. If you have not already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.

    3) restart

    • 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 this isn't the case, then again please contact your mobile provider for formal support. Please ask him to check very carefully as to why your BB cannot receive BIS of their network. There are several possible reasons (e.g., lost or stolen), and you will have to convince them to 'dig deeper' to understand why. Be aware that only they can do this research... nobody here has any access to this research.

    Good luck!

  • A freezing Storm blackBerry smartphones... help!

    I'm a convert of Treo in the world of BlackBerry and I thought that the storm is the way to do it.  In any case, after getting the telephone, connected to my corporate email server and downloading some apps, I run on the problem where scrolling and tapping are just frustrating me no end!  For example, when you try to scroll through applications, it just freezes on me and won't do anything.  I can press 'End' and it brings back me to my home screen.  Then, I tried to get into the phone to call Verizon to see if I could get help.  hen tapping/press the 'Contacts' icon, nothing happens.  OK, press harder.  Still nada!  OK, so I'll just type the number manually.  I press the 1 and 5 rises.  I press the 1 and 5 another appears.  I try to change where I am pressing on in the hope that I can get a 1 appears on the screen.  Nothing!  I had 3 seconds to throw this thing out the window.  I know that the BlackBerry is far superior than the Palm Treo but I want to tell you, I was contemplating going back to Palm.  I don't want to give up and hope that there is someone out there who can help out me.  Thank you!!

    OK things more to check...

    How did you leave apps when you're done? If it's with the back or on the red button, then the app is unable to close properly. Always use the BBKey and "Close" or "Exit" to exit the application when you are finished. Only if you have a reason to keep it running, you must use another method to exit an application. If left to themselves, many apps will remain running, and just like a PC, more you ask him to do at the same time, him more bogged down it will receive.

    Something to watch - free memory of the App. Options > memory, check the free AppMemory immediately after a restart of batt-pop. Then watch an it... If he's dropping like a stone, then something is running for consumption.

    You can always check what apps are underway into the BBKey - he will always phone, home screen, BBMessenger, Messages and browser running... everything else is an application that has not closed. Be very frugal with allowing applications to stay running.

    You can also search the QuickPull... a version is free on the AppWorld. According to a schedule, it will be a reboot which is almost as good as a proper reboot batt-sweater. I have mine work every night at 1130 hours... longer, with the paid version (which I have), it will monitor the memory of the app and ask me if I want to restart when it reaches a set threshold.

    The thing we want to avoid is an OS reload... who is the most radical, and we need to reduce the other elements of first possible causation (IMHO).

    Give these things a try and report.

    See you soon!
