BB Curve :: Gemini Charges But Refuses To Turn On On Its Own
Aug 8, 2012
I've been trying to work on my mothers old Curve Gemini ... She has no use for it so i decided I'd take charge of it. 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

I am trying to setup my email on this phone but there seems to be no way. When I go to manage internet email it takes me right to the t-mobile homepage and under email setup my only option is to use a work account on a blackberry enterprise server.

It has been a week now, and my Bold 9780 switches off as soon as I turn it back on. It started as a problem with my keypad and trackpad which stopped working. Slowly, my phone gave in and switched off.For the past 5 days, I took out the battery and packed my phone and the battery separately in a zip pouch to avoid any chances of moisture intervention. My phone worked properly for one full day yesterday and now its irritating again.

Before the problem happened, i left my phone on in standby mode.I discovered after the problem happened, the phone was permanently shutdown, nothing i did (trying all the keys, taking battery out etc) could turn it on again.When I charged it, it still refused to turn on.The only thing that happened when it was under the charger was that the top left key and 'main' middle button in the directional keypad light up in red. The other non numerical keys light up to varying degrees of brightness, but the top left and middle key are the brightest for some reason.Could someone kindly advise, I would like to have my functioning phone back.

I was on my Xperia z2 and the screen began jumping up and down before I shut the phone down and took my cover off to feel how hot the back of the device was.
At this moment, the device was charging and when I try ti turn it on, all I get is a screen mixed with lines of yellow, pink and green, almost like an untuned television.

I have an N97 on Vodafone in the UK. I upgraded the firmware to version 2.0 and now want to upgrade to ver 2.1..The update seems to work OK, but when the phone is rebooted, even after a hard reset, it still shows version 2.0..Also it will not allow any additional application such as Ovi mpas or google maps to install.

I 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.

I have a Blackberry Curve 8320. Yesterday night, the "battery too low for radio use" sign appeared. I plugged it in for about an hour but the sign would not disappear so I did a battery pull. Radio turned back on, but now the phone will not charge. The lightning icon still shows up by the battery but it is stuck at 5%. Any suggestions?

Going on a cruise next week that has GSM roaming on it. I plan to leave the phone off unless I need to check in with someone in US.I know that the voice rate will be $4.99 per minute, but how do I turn off the data portion of the phone to not rack up crazy roaming data charges. I do have unlimited international email but suspect the cruise ship does not count.

My daughters boyfriend gave her his old Blackberry Curve 8900, after he got a newer blackberry on his contract. My daughter just used her old sim from her old tmobile phone. I pay £15 per month for her to have 600 minutes and unlimited texts.But since using her sim in the BB, there have been strange charges appearing on her statement. She doesn't use any apps on there, and hasn't seen anything happening on the phone so we're at a loss as to what these charges are.They are only a few pence, but last month it came to over £7 and this month in just 3 days the total is already £2.She popped into our local tmobile store and was told that BB's are not supposed to be used without a data package, whatever that's supposed to mean.Tmobile do a booster for unlimited internet for just under £5 but I can't really afford to be paying that every month, i'd just rather get rid of these extra charges all together.

My BB Curve 8520's battery charges so slow. I thought that maybe my battery is just so drained since I usually charge when my battery is dead.But i have noticed that in the succeeding days, it really charges so slow. And today, as i speak, is the worst.I have started charging at 10am and until now (time here in the Philippines is 3:30pm), it is still low battery. Thus, it has been 5 hours of charging.

I have the BB Torch 9810, 7.0 Bundle 1355 and am trying to do the 7.1.0.1997 update that my phone prompted me to do. Ever since I got the phone, I have never been able to update a single app because it will not log me in.Each time I try to log in, it tells me that my password is incorrect (it is not). I have update my password several times, and it still will not recognize it. Now, it just tells me "an unexpected error has occurred".I plugged my phone into my Mac, and tried to update it there. I attempted to update 3 times, and attempted to back my files up twice. When I tried to back up my files, I got another "an unexpected error has occurred". When I try to update it, it tells me it is unable to update, and that I need to disconnect and try again. I did this in safe mode, as well.

I've been having problems getting my phone(s) to charge. Here's a chronology of events.First time:I'd been messing with my phone all night on the second day I got the phone, setting up screens and what not and it just died. I plugged it into the charger and nothing for a few minutes and then the LED turned on and was white. It wouldn't start or go into charging mode. I removed the battery several times and left it out for several minutes. After leaving it plugged in for a few minutes, the LED turned green but still no startup or charging mode. After several more minutes, it finally went into charge mode and the LED turned orange and was 0%! Another 10 minutes and it was 15% and booted fine. I was using a battery widget to have %battery in the notifications. It had stopped working and was stuck at 50% (I was really impressed with battery life until it died). I was using both the Circle Battery widget and Battery Monitor Widget.
Did a factory reset and changed battery widgets after the first time above. Used it for two more days without charging issue.Second time:This time, I did get a low battery notice at 20% and I plugged into a USB port but nothing. I then plugged into a wall outlet and nothing. I tried multiple cables/ports/outlets and the phone eventually died before I could get it to charge. It took another 45 minutes to get it charging again with the battery dead. It charged to 100% yet the white LED would not go out with the phone off. I was using the Battery Monitor Widget and Battery Notifier (big text) widget.I took the phone back to Best Buy thinking it might be a bad battery or bad phone and they provided an full exchangehird time:his was within a half hour of getting the new phone, I plugged it into my computer USB and it wouldn't charge. I don't believe I had put any battery widgets back on but I may be mistaken. I plugged it into the wall outlet and it wouldn't charge. I rebooted the phone and it charged.

I bought this phone off a freind so obviously I don't have the original charger, but its still the usb charger including the wall part.... the battery is now dead (through usage) and when i plug it into the wall i got nothin. The lil white light on the side comes on when i plug it into the pc but it doesnt appear to be charging there either...Now I understand there's something about USB devices starting at 100mA untill it requests more power but mine is still only at 100mA. I'm thinking its not charging cause its not requesting more power

It has previously glitched when turning on, but it always does turn on. It's fully charged, I had it charging all night and in the morning it worked fine. I was turning in on and off a couple time during the day and it started fine. Went to turn in on later and nothing happened. Nothing lit up or anything. I took out the battery and put it back in and nothing. I tried charging it for hours and still nothing. I've only had it about 5 months and the battery seems fine.

My E55 refuses to complete the setup using the preset Gmail settings in the phone. It gets as far as conencting to the mailbox and trying to syncfor about 10 secs then the mailbox dissapears and gos back to the option no email accounts set do you wish to create and I have to start again, but to no avail. Firmware is current, done a factory reset all to no avail. The annoying thing is it had been working fine, but I uninstalled the Gmail mailbox as my wife wanted to use the phone for a few weeks whilst she got a new one, and now I cant put it back on, so I know my Gmail settings are correct with regards to google. Internet access is fine

This morning I had the yellow envelope appear at the top of my storm which usually appears when I have a new email or a new msg of some sort and the (1) appears in my email address icon and in the messages icon the only problem is I do not have any new email and no new msgs.I am pretty good with my phone and have covered almost all aspects of it. I checked (and deleted) all the email I had on the phone. I then even removed the email account. I deleted everything in the "messages" folder. I checked app world, I checked all sms, mms and bb messenger. Nothing. I deleted all past and calls in case i had missed a call. The phone says empty in every place I can check. The only place I can find even close to something is under Setup and then Application Center it does show "1 New Items" which is the Myspace app. Thinking that was it I went ahead and installed that to see if that would get rid of the envelope. Nothing. And what is weird is under application center it still says Myspace was not installed .even though it was and phone rebooted. It is like it is not detecting all my msgs gone and even the install of the stupid myspace app. Is there any way to force it to remove the envelope? I have tried everything I can think of.
