Phone frozen blackBerry Smartphones

My turn has suddenly stopped responding. The trackball works, but nothing does; incoming calls don't ring, just go straight to voicemail. I made a couple of resets hard, but they did not help.

Any suggestions?

Thank you

Hello and welcome to the community!

You said "reset hard ', but it can mean a lot of things... so...

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.

Otherwise, I recommend that you try to start safe mode:

  • KB17877 How to start a smartphone BlackBerry in Mode safe

It will take several attempts to get the combination of keys ESC (press/release/hold) OK, so be patient. When properly in Safe Mode, thinking... what happened just before this behavior started? A new application? An update? A theme? Something else? Think carefully that the slightest change can be causal... and try to undo all that was.

Good luck and let us know!

  • Phone and blackBerry Smartphone installation last firmware update starts

    Info on the device

    Carrier: Bell

    Model: BlackBerry Bold 9780

    OS version: 6... something

    I have BlackBerry Protect and made a backup yesterday (July 30, 2012)

    Apps and free space

    A battery pull fix your problem?  After trying to install the latest update, which continued to install after 4 hours, I pulled the battery.

    When you write your question

    How can I get the load to the top of the screen to access my phone?

    My phone had OS6 installed at the time it was released. Today, I decided to update to the latest version of the OS6. I downloaded the update through my device, and then click the button install. There is a prompt message warning that the installation can take 2 hours or more. After 2 hours, I started the monitoring device and noticed that there seems to be a pattern to the load up screen. 1 loading screen screen 2) black with LED light red 3) the load screen and then ends with a bright white screen 4) back to the black screen with LED Red 5) repeat this pattern.  I waited another hour to see if there was no change in the situation, but nothing. So I did a hard reset (battery pull). After waiting 5 minutes, I put the battery in and now I get this screen load pattern.

    How can I pass the loading screens to access my phone again?

    How do I erase and reload my camera?

    If I erase and reload my camera, can I recharge my BlackBerry protect the back upward?

    I would greatly appreciate any help or advice on this matter as soon as POSSIBLE!

    There are two methods for recovering for you to try:

    • 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:

  • No. phones smart blackBerry smartphone made by BlackBerry - is it true?

    German press reports the end of BlackBerry as a manufacturer of smartphone.

    http://www.Golem.de/news/Mobilfunk-BlackBerry-entwickelt-keine-smartphones-Mehr-1609-123511.html

    Is this true? And delays in updating a hint of the near end of the BlackBerry smartphones? Both sell hardware as possible before moving to a software developer pure offering solutions to large business customers? And stop doing anything for the devices the year next after a last updated OS10 and Android?

    It is a promised how much official BlackBerry will support the PRIV and the DTEK50?

    What?

    http://blogs.BlackBerry.com/2016/10/the-future-of-BlackBerry-devices/

    "Stop us handset hardware development and take full advantage of third parties to develop the hardware and to distribute and support the BlackBerry handset brand."

    BlackBerry has signed a manufacturing contract, or in other words has had industrial partners. But BlackBerry has made the development and design, marketing and support. In the statement of BlackBerry itself, which ends. It will allow software; Is no longer develop and commercialize and support material.

    So to the OP, Yes to your first question.

  • Phone of blackBerry Smartphones is possesed?

    Hi... my blackberry 9900 randomly opens messages and apps and call someone from my contact list, the screen keeps jumping and open anything... help please!

    OK thanks... you did a Wipe of security on the device, not a factory reset. Ok.

    In view of all your symptoms and issues, I would recommend a reload of the OS. The easiest way is, on a PC (you can not do on MAC):

    (1) make sure that you have a current backup and your BB complete... you can find the instructions at the link in my auto-sig below. It is perhaps questionable in your situation... you may or may not now be able to make a backup. I hope that you have a recent, that you can use.

    2) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,

    (3) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

    (4) download and install on your computer, the BB OS package you want:

    • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    • If all you want are the levels of BONE, it is first sorted by carrier - the carrier supports, your search will be fast. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To really get the package up-to-date OS for your BB, you need to dig through and find all businesses that support your specific model BB and then compare the BONE levels they support.

    5) remove all copies of the SELLER on your PC. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

    6 (a) to change your level of BB OS installed (at level or lower), you can run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC.

    6 (b) or, for recharging your BB OS level installed as well to change, work around the Desktop software and use the CHARGER. EXE directly, through step 2 in this process:

    If, during the process of 6a or 6 b, your BB has an error '507', simply unplug the USB of the BB cord and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue.

    You can also study the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe what he is capable.

    You can also try the "skeleton OS Reload procedure" in an attempt to circumscribe the precise causal element:

    1. Load your OS "bare bones"... If everything is optional, do not install it.
    2. If the behavior is immediately, then try another OS with step 1
    3. If the behavior does not immediately, then run for as long as necessary to make you to be sure that the behavior will not occur.
    4. Add one more thing - no matter how tempting, one.
    5. If the behavior does not immediately present, and then runs for long enough to be sure he won't have the same problem
    6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are responsible or the behavior presents

    When the behavior shows up, you know the culprit... the last thing you have loaded.

    If the behavior doesn't re-present, then you know that step 1 or 2 cured it.

    If the behavior has anything, then you have probably a problem of material level for which no amount of OS or software can heal.

    You may also use these tips:

    If you are on a MAC, you are limited to only your sanctioned carriers OS packages... but can still use any level they currently have to sanction. See this procedure:

  • Frozen BlackBerry Smartphones after typing the password (). Help!

    Any ideas before making a hard reset?

    Last night, my Blackberry is not completely unblock after as I type my password. I type the right password and press ENTER, the password input section darkens (or it will stay on the "Enter Password" screen and seem to freeze). (If I type the wrong password it just invites me again, so I know I type the password). This is according to that multiple battery pulls.

    Sometimes, after you type the password, I can hold the blackberry button and it will bring to the top of the box that allows me to BBM, browser, homescreen, etc and I can "switch" to this program, but there is a sort of shadow frozen area enter the password on the app that never I going to and I can't use the keyboard or the trackball in these applications.

    This "box of jelly ' prevents me from using any application on my BB!

    I CAN receive calls. Barely. I can only make calls if I remove the battery and only unlock the phone and go to the option to purchase the place.

    I upgraded to OS 5 a week ago and until last night, things were fine. I hear my BB when it receives messages (work tones) or txt etc, but cannot read anything due to the lock!

    The only suspect is Google Talk, I have installed two days ago and seemed to be hogging resources and drain the battery, however the phone worked well for about a day with it on. Google Talk is perhaps run at startup and hang up things? I doubt it, but it is full disclosure.

    I also, pulled battery and removed the micro-sd card to see if it had an effect - unfortunately nothing helped.

    An analogy I can think of it is as if Windows Explorer is blocked, but everything else works.

    THOUGHTS?

    Try this:

    (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. Try UNclicking the Google Talk application and remove the device and we'll see if that is the question.

    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.
