View 6 Replies View RelatedBB Curve :: Trackball Won't Scroll But Isn't Physically Stuck
Aug 30, 2011I've been having a bizzare issue with my Blackberry 8900. Basically, the trackball will just stop scrolling and I can't move anywhere. But the trackball itself doesn't feel physically stuck, it moves the same as always, but it won't move on the screen. It does, however, let me select still using the trackball. The menus aren't frozen, it's just a scrolling issue.
I've tried re-installing the software and have the most recent update available. I've tried restoring it to factory settings, but it's no good. The problem is intermittent - about 90% of the time it's frozen. The only thing I've discovered to remedy it is a battery and sim pull - this worked for a while, and I was able to use the phone as normal, but it stop scrolling and need a sim pull approx every 24 hours. Now that doesn't even work. I gave up trying to use it and put my sim in my old Blackberry, but turned my 8900 on anyway (simless) and it worked! I thought it was a fluke at first, but I've been trying it all week - keeping my phone on, simless, and noting that it works all the time - no problems at all. Occasionally I'll try putting my sim back in my 8900 and sure enough it breaks again. So I started to suspect there was an issue with the sim. I called up Orange and got them to send me out a new one, just in case that was the issue. They've done that, it's all registered, but still I'm having the same problem - it won't let me scroll when there's an active sim inside, but as soon as I take it out it's like there's no problem at all.
BB Curve 83xx :: Trackball Won't Scroll After Getting Dropped In Water
Jun 17, 2010Hey folks, a few weeks ago I dropped my Curve in some water. I dried it out in some rice and reloaded all the software. It works now except for one major problem.the trackball will not scroll at all. It won't go up or down or left or right. It will still select.I have a completely new housing and trackball. I tried an old trackball but it didn't work either. I cleaned the new trackball with some alcohol as well as the contacts in the phone but it still won't work.

Mar 19, 2010So I got my first BB 6 months ago! I loved it I babied it! I never had a phone do so much keep me so entertained. Keep me so up to date with everything> I left the G1 for the BB and it was still much better I could contact friends I could not any other way with the BBIM. Then one day she died in her track ball! So I had to replace her. That was 2 months into the love affair I was having with the BB.
So I got the replace meant and it was harder than anything to tell her by. I could tell my wife by with ease but not her. I loved her! She was my best friend my companion I never left her behind! So many bars so many experiences SO MUCH TROUBLE ELIMINATED. But she had to go, Like a horse with a broke leg she was worthless!
So on to my second one not so much babying as I still thought of her predecessor. She could never be HER! I however gave here a chance! and we grew a bond unlike no other.
we were inseparable every where together only a handful of hungover days did I forget to bring her with me to work. I m,ade up for that many a time!
She finally committed suicide of the track ball as well. Following her predecessor. So I had to replace her again but this time I had new knowledge of how to use her while I waited. I also had a callous numbness to her loss from my first marriage to a BB! So I was not hurt or lonely!
So as I awaited my replacement BB Curve 8900. I did not care as soon as it arrived she was done she was gone to the wayside! I hope you can be refurbished but I can never trust you ever!
My new mistress arrived I opened her fondled her and loaded her with all I had! Only to find out I had been burned. She did not work for data. or incoming calls. She was a teasing *****! So back to my previous mistress! With no track ball while I fight for a free upgrade due to have gone through 3 BB 8900 in 6 months WTF

Jan 4, 2010So I installed an Invisible Shield on my 8900 yesterday and I turned it on a few minutes ago to find that the trackball isn't working well anymore.The phone works fine, it didn't have any water damage.
However to be able to use the trackball I have to press down while spinning it.Also it feels kinda smooth, like it offers no resistance when spinning.Any solutions? What can I do? If i take in to T-Mobile can they give me a new trackball? (Phone was purchased March 08.)

May 6, 2010I have the 8900 and my carrier is Tata Docomo. None of the keys and the trackball are working, This includes the mute key on top of the phone, the lock key, the side push button keys , . . all keys are not working. And neither is the trackball.I flashed the OS, as in reinstalled the OS, 5.0.090 (Platform 4.0.023) but that didnt solve the problem.
I've also plugged out the media card, to avoid any conflicts.Have done hard resets of course, but thats not helped either.Except for the keys not functioning, the phone is otherwise functioning, I can recieve calls, which I of course cant pick up. I am being able to use it as a modem and connect to the internet using Desktop Manager. The Desktp manager is detecting the phone, too.
The Desktop manager version I am using is 5.0.1.11.Out of the 252.5 M device space available, I have 131.0 M free.

Apr 19, 2010sorry guys i know this has been covered but i recently dropped my phone running and the top lock key seemed to be affected (point of impact) so i was having to apply alot of pressure to lock it.so i ordered a new chrome bezel and top cover (lock and mute button)took it apart and put back together.
issue im having is that at times the trackball seems to be loosing contact in the back (inside). so it will work at times then it just stops i can make a selection by clicking the track ball but any vertical or horizontal movement doesnt register. IF i apply pressure to the back of the battery door and push up behind the track ball it seems to work.
So i took it apart and tried to make sure nothing was in between the trackball and what it touches. didnt seem to be. but the issue still there i tried to retighten the screws but i dont want to strip them so im wondering what my options are. i really dont want a refurbed phone but i may have to order one idk.
