I've just recieved my bb curve 8520 and after it being on charge for over 4 hours, it will not turn on. The screen is showing the blackberry logo, with a bar underneath as if it was updating. the bar only reaches a certain point beofre it stops.Does anyone have any ideas about why this is and what I can do to turn it on??

I was wondering , if the battery was dead or something because it wouldn't turn on , it showed a charging symbol when i put it on charge in the car ( then my only charger for that type of phone ) it charged for a good while so i took it off and it died.... After a got a wall charger i had it on for two days straight and when i take it off it dies... I got a new battery (35 bucks us here ) and put it in , the same thing even with charging
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy lovely Blackberry 8520 doesn't have any more than about 12 hours battery life. Even without using it for anything, it starts the day fully charged and loses juice by 6pm, when I have to turn it off. I've had it since March, it has had a new battery (about a month into my contract with Orange), and I also have Battery Booster enabled.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy 8520 was working fine last night but the battery was down to 10% charge.
Charged the battery up and phone worked fine and I turned it off before going to bed.
The phone turned on fine this morning and was showing a full charge. I did turn it off when I got to work and when I went to turn it back on when I went to lunch I got nothing. The LED glows briefly and faintly when I try to power the phone on.
I tried hooking to my car charger but with the same results.
I was using my x6 when the battery died, now after charging it, it wont switch on?If i push the power button, nothin happens atall?If i plug in the charger the phone lights up and the displays the nokia logo, it also responds to touches.Any advise or help please?I have tried a hard reset (green, red, camera and power buttons) but it doesnt switch on this is the problem?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI recently got my Sony Xperia Z3 two weeks ago and there are several problems that I'm noticing.
1. It charges extremely slow. I have tried different outlets and chargers to see if it can work but it doesn't and it take more than 3 hours to charge to its full capacity. How do I fix this?
2. While the camera is great, the image quality is not the best considering that it has a high mp I would expect more because I have seen images online where the quality is beautiful but when I look at my phone it's not like that.
Furthermore the front cam always has a lot of background noise which makes the images really bad. How do I fix these 2 problems?
3. Whenever I call someone and want to put them on speaker or I want to hangup it takes forever for the screen to light up. I even press the power button to see if it works but it doesn't.
my blackberry 8520 freezes on the AT&T World Phone screen.

I already try with different cables and other pc but steel same story.

And steel I don't know does it charge my phone when is in this mode because I think that I have only 3 stripes when I pull out my battery.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was using my phone and then it just switched off. The battery was half charged. I took out the battery and tried to turn it on again however nothing is happening. Everytime I take out the battery and put it back the red light on the right hand corner comes on for a couple of seconds then turns off again. I have kept the phone plugged into the charger but even then no change.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a blackberry curve 8520, i bought it last month sometime.I woke up yesterday morning and the balckberry was off, and would not switch on after i pushed down the ON button. So I charged it for a while, and still, it wouldnt switch on. Then, i took it off charge, took out the battery put the battery back in and it rebooted. The loading bar went right to the end, and the logo of my service provider appeared. And that's when it stopped loading. All that will show is the logo, it wont turn off, unless i take the battery out again.I had downloaded an app the night before it stopped working off appworld, could that have affected it?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI may have mistakenly pressed on a couple of buttons (when sleeping) and I woke up to see my 8520 configuring voice calling and it was 98% complete (So I figured it was best to let it complete since it was almost done). I woke up again a few hours later and she wont come on. I've removed the battery several times but only the red light comes on for a few seconds then it goes off and the screen remains blank..

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy charger has a blue light on it so I know when it is working as the light flashes (so I know its not the charger) but when I charge my phone the red light comes on and it goes to the reboot screen or a few seconds and then goes back to a black screen, then might repeat this a few times before not coming on again. It has also shown the battery with a lightening bolt and a red cross through it... I have used blackberry desktop software and have tried clearing my phone, re adding the OS but it just doesn't do anything yet it hasn't died completely as the reboot image comes up before dying again!
