Z10 Z10 My BlackBerry went swimming and still works! -(sorte de)

I'm totally disappointed, but it was pure distraction that allowed my free time Z10 to fly out of my top pocket in the water and become completely submerged for a few seconds!

Immediately, I disassembled it and placed the pieces in my pocket and ran to the House to do what I could.  When I checked out I could see the water entered into the sim slot (I guess that via USB and HDMI ports) or the helmet.

I touch dry as much as I could and packed in an absorbent powder moisture (wrapped in cloth) for the night.

He appeared to research drought, then I gently he blow dried until warm and placed him in the compound, (several times). I know that I should have left computers a week, but...

Anyway, she booted up and seems to work fine without the sim card or SD card, so I turned it off and tried with just the sim card.

He had received about five seconds and gave it a blue screen, then tore up the battery.

I think I did an antenna because it works OK but no network at all now.

He is buried in absorbing moisture for what I anticipate to be a period a little longer this time.

I'm not saying that I am more than a little irritated, as it was the my best phone so far!

If it is not 'cure' I begin the long March to replace it, I haven't used this computer because I had seen and I enjoyed my little time on these forums

I am the download link (for the first time and I'll let you know what's happening.)

Advice, the corporal and the commiserations are welcome, but please understand that I have that a computer now is not so easy to get on the internet for me now.

My first BlackBerry, fast, clean & I'll just not go back.

So good night all! (from Down-Under)

The best advice is to put your phone with battery removed in a bag of rice for 4-5 days and not to wait at LEAST 4 days. One of the worst things that you can do, and unfortunately you did, is to use a hair dryer. This can blow moisture back into your phone.

See you soon.

Although the Internet is there on Simulator (checked with the browser on Simulator).

  • Z10 Z10 BB BlackBerry - Frequently stops and starts on the charger but battery is always above average percentage

    Please help my blackberry Z10 goes out frequently and only turns on if his charger on and with that being said, I discovered the battery to be always above average level... Please help I dunno what to do now and I bought it on sale at the shop of the game in 2 months ago South Africa!

    It may be a faulty battery, you can borrow a battery of a person to see if it's the battery.

    Try this first: with the phone is off and the charger is plugged into the phone and taking wait 3 to 5 minutes.

    With charger plugged always remove the battery for 3-5 minutes and then replace the battery and keep the load until full.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Verizon Will still work if I unlock my BB Storm 2 Verizon / 9550

    Hello

    I hope I'm not duplicating an existing thread... but could not find the question / answer until now.

    I have really two questions (which are linked)

    1. I have a BB Storm 2 on Verizon and purchased an unlock code. However, before unlocking, I wanted to make sure that I can use my phone / email / data from my existing Verizon account. The reason why I'm unlock the phone in the first place, is that I want to give my mother in Germany in about a month, which will be used with a different local provider.

    2. once I give the phone to my mother in Germany, she would be able to use it just via WiFi or she will have a provider and the data plan to send e-mails? She didn't really need it as a phone, just to send by e-mail. I don't know, however, whether she would be able to put up with an e-mail account if it doesn't have a regular wireless provider.

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    Don't worry, you will still be able to use your phone on Verizon when unlock you. Be sure to enter the code carefully and that you get only 10 tests and then it will be permanently locked to Verizon.

    Once you give the phone your mother in Germany, she will be able to use the browser and a few apps through wifi, but if she wants to use the features of e-mail or something like BBM, it will need a BlackBerry data plan (a regular data plan is not enough). So now, if she is simply using a service like Gmail or Hotmail e-mail, she can just connect via the browser on wifi and manually check his emails. But it's the only option for wifi use.

    I hope this info helps!

  • BlackBerry Z10 bad e-mail address and password

    I keep getting these requested updates of Blackberry id recently and I need ot legeremnts my password etc.

    However, I do not remember my word password so tried the password reset only to find out that the email I entered when I orginally had the phone (16 months ago) was incorrect. He should be .com, but it seems that I entered .cpm

    That's why I can't access my password for my email account recovery link because it does not exist and cannot reset it without my forgotten password.

    Is there a way to get around this? Help would be appreciated.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Please see this post "sticky" for useful information about your situation BBID:

    I hope that this information will be useful to you. Included in this is a way (alone!) to get your BBID via a PC/browser, but it takes that you previously had confirmed/validated your BBID. If you do not, then there is no way to recover this BBID without human intervention (which is described in the instructions linked above).

    But be careful if you run the OS industry 10.3.2... that has the compulsory anti-theft function, which requires the entry of existing BBID powers to even change the associated BBID. Because you do not know your existing BBID credentials, your situation is much more difficult if you're on the 10.3.2 branch of the OS. Previously, once could approach 'give up' WIPE their device and create a new BBID after the WIPE... but with 10.3.2, the association underway between the device and the BBID cannot be broken without successful entry of the BBID current in the framework to initiate this RAG on the device. So if you're on the 10.3.2 branch of the OS, then human intervention will certainly be necessary that the automated systems at your disposal simply cannot overcome these limitations.

    See you soon and good luck!

  • Wipe the Z10 Z10 security blackBerry problem

    Nice day

    Last night at 10:30 I started a wipe of my BlackBerry Z10 security is expected to be completed at the time wherever I woke. But it is now 1:30 and it still shows the shredder icon. Would it really just that it took 27 hours (and still ongoing) to wipe the device? I don't believe it. What can I do to fix this?

    Your help will be greatly appreciated.

    Yours sincerely,

    Christopher van der Velden

    No, it's a bit long.

    Try to remove the battery for five minites, reinsert and see what happens. If the cloth continues, let it sit for a bit longer and then let us know.

  • Z10 blackBerry I can not connect my Z10 for BlackBerry link more.

    I have not had a problem until the other day, but now my Z10 is not recognized by BlackBerry link. I've deleted and reinstalled link 3 times, including the new 1.2 update. I have also reset my phone twice and tried two for BlackBerry USB cables and tried all three USB ports on my computer. On my phone when I plug it into my computer a pop up box appears on my phone and says it is connected to the computer, but the computer still does not recognize him. It can be synchronized via wifi, but that's all. Now a box pop up appears on my computer and said 'missing hardware ID - Windows cannot identify the device plugged into the USB composite device. For assistance, contact the hardware manufacturer.

    I hope that you tried to reboot your device. In addition, try to change the connection parameters in the 'storage and access' to connect to Windows and check if it solves your problem

    Try to connect the Z10 on another computer. If this is the case, you will need to remove the blackberry on your computer drivers and reinstall them.
    Try deleting blackberry drivers and resettlement.
    1. uninstall the link BB and BB Desktop Manager if you have one.
    2. check if all the drivers are deleted as a result of this http://www.ehow.com/how_8287066_remove-blackberry-drivers-windows-7.html
    3. restart the computer and reinstall the BB link. Restart the computer again.
    4 restart your device so that there is no problem on your device. Reconnect the device to the computer.

    If the device is not able to connect to another computer, it is likely a bad USB port.

    Remove the battery. Then reinsert the battery. While the device is booting, connect it to the computer, and then run the automatic charger. If this does not work, try with the removed battery and then reinsert the battery once the computer sees the device.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Reference:

    That scroll down to the section titled ' I found my device after using the flag as stolen option, what do I do now?

    Regarding the error you get now, you must reload your OS.

    Official methods, which will be controlled as to what exact OS versions are available:

    Non-official methods, which are cleaner and allow you to choose a version of the OS that maybe your carrier (or anyone they control your offers) delays in approval:

    Carefully note the requirement in the HelpBlog I provided you above... you must use the exact same BBID as was on the device when you score as stolen.

    Be aware of the risks of 10.3.2 however... There are two things to worry about. First of all, be 100% sure that you know your BBID identifiers... If you do not, you may make your useless device to anyone, including yourself. Second, once you move to 10.3.2, you cannot fall back to 10.3.1 or earlier, by any medium (for example, even the unofficial AutoLoaders can not overcome this restriction anti-secours).

    Good luck!

  • Z10 ERROR BlackBerry: z10 stl100-1 (Nos. responsible interrupted during a load of unit?)

    I was doing security wiping and after 43 hours of waitining, I took out the battery on 98% of wiping my phone into a brick (((.))) I trided to do a restore and trieded to install OS with loading auto-STL100-1-DevAlphaB - 10.3.2.159.exe and tried again to power the unit off (no luck - all restarts and says the error message) and then plugged into my PC. Initially the autoloader just repeated connection to the bootrom for about an hour, so I closed and removed the battery of the device.

    I restarted the autoloader and when "connecting to bootrom" came I plugged the USB device. A bunch of USB 'in' and 'out' sounds occurred and the ADF when at work. My camera is no longer displayed the error message and LED has been constantly green.

    When you have finished the autoloader, I managed to capture a screenshot of him say 'OS blocked. The unit began the flashing pattern "Flashing, flashing, Pause" then the cycle starts again.

    Need help (())

    From what you say, seems that you use a developer version. It was a bad move, regardless.

    I do not know how to interpret what you see, and I'm not sure of the correction. If I were in your shoes I would get a correct autoloader and run it. Refer to https://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-10-Functions-and/Upgrading-OS10-devices-using-Aut...
