BB Curve :: The Rubber Buttons Started To Fade Off?
Aug 29, 2010
I own a two Blackberry 8520. Almost 1.25 year i bought it. Both mobile has crossed 1year warranty. In Both set the rubber buttons started to fade off... The volume, Voice dialing button is faded off completely with the Cam button on the sides.When I called Redington India Ltd Jaipur & Delhi they told the rubber panel has to be replaced completely and they need to send the phone to Banglore ( Min 10 days of time) and it would cost WOOPING 2500Rs just to replace the rubber coat on the phone! What I would like to know is
1. Why 10 days of service time?
2. If I sell my phone I wouldn't even get 2500Rs now and the repair costs WOOPING 2500rs just to replace the rubber panel on the phone. Is it the right cost given to me?
3. Can the service be done within few hours or 1 or 2 days?( Since its just replacing the rubber panel)
4. Why is the quality of Blackberry 8520 not up to BlackBerry standards? The buttons just fade off what ever is done! Sir. Spending 2500rs for one mobie is very expensive just for the rubber panel.
5. The total cost for both mobile is around Rs 5,000. It is very expensive because in both sets body (front & Back) is OK but rubber panel was fade off.
6. Having such a reputed company the quality of buttons is so poor. Is this a manufacturing Defect?

A few days ago my phone just suddenly started pressing buttons on its own and ignoring my button presses. Turning off the screen and turning it back on again fixes it temporarily, but within just a few seconds it will often continue again.
Is this a virus? Or is my phone broken? Nothing happened to cause it to break.

My BB 8520's (IMEI 358472.03.890910.6) rubber lining is of poor quality. Hence the volume button and shortcut buttons on the side have peeled off and other parts of the lining are also tearing off. This is a manufacturing defect. I have checked on google and have seen that there are lot of people complaining of the same problem.

I have the curve 8520 and it keeps fading to a white screen while I'm doing pretty much anything on the phone. It has done it after I check voicemail, on BBM, fb, email...etc.etc. After it fades to white, it will freeze like that until i take the battery out or plug it in...sometimes it will just turn itself off and stay on black screen... do i need to get a new battery?

I have a HS -500 blue tooth on which I lost the rubber ear piece and broke the plastic ear loop holder. I have gone to several cell phone stores, contacted blackberry directly and have gone on web sites. i cannot find anyone who sell these spare parts. I can't believe that an 80$ blue tooth has been rendered useless because of this.

No Browser is running and I dont have any apps. I was on the phone for 15 min and my battery was half dead when I got off. Was never like that before. I've had this phone for almost 2 years. The same thing is happening with the rest of my families Blackberrys. Why is this?

I could not find a rubber cover/case. I bought the plastic hard rubber item that is fake paint that looks like rubber and scrapes off real easy. The plastic underneath is white so it looks like crap after a few weeks.

I lost the little eloastomeric (EPDM, BUNA?) cover for the micro USB port. SE support says replacements are unavailable. I'm sure there were millions of the components molded at the OEM manufacturer. Anyone know where to get Sony Ericsson parts?

I recently received my E72 and love it! Just a question regarding the display of words in certain screens. Depending on the actual screen displayed , the text seems to fade - which is quite weird. On screens where the icons are displayed and other screens all seems fine. Switching off and rebooting doesn't help - it remains there. Is this normal or is the handset faulty?

My wife's BB has suddenly (last 3 days) started discharging the battery at a silly rate full to flat within 3 hours without use. The only activity seems to be a small clock appearing in the centre of the screen intermittently which she says she hasn't noticed before. This also comes on when writing mails prior to the typed in letter appearing on the screen It has the latest soft and firmware.

I got my curve 9900 about a month and a half ago and I haven't dropped or damaged it in any way but the battery has stated to drain itself in a few hours when fully charged (this has been happening for the past week) and phone lags and freezes on the loading clock sign. Also, when I turn it off at night and try to turn it on in the morning it's battery is dead and I have to charge it again.

On your Z5's when you let the screen turn off automatically due to timeout, what is your animation? Does it dim out and turn off instantly or does it have a fade out effect?
Mine dims and turns off without a fade out effect which I swear was there before? I don't know.

My blackberry started booting and it never completes this process. I have waited and the bar never passes letter "e" in blackberry. I have waited a lot of time and also tried taking out the battery and rebooting it again. What can I do? Is there a way to reset my phone manually?

This had been bugging me for 3 days now. I don't have another phone to use. I've tried to repair the software using Update Service but it do no good. After pressing the On button at the top of the phone, the phone will vibrate after a sec and then there's a backlight but the "Sony Ericson" logo does not appear and after about 6 seconds the backlight will fade.
