BB (RIM) :: Pearl 9100 Led Light Only Flashes For Short Time
Jun 4, 2010
Before I take this phone back to the store I want to find out if this maybe the way that RIM is actually making this phone now.When I get a new email or text etc., the led light flashes red like all the blackberries do but it only goes for a short time then stops. It starts again when there is more emails but again stops.
I looked in the settings and cant find what I would adjust for this. Either the phone is defective or this is the way the phone is.Any help would be appreciated as I will need to take it back within the next day or two.

I have a Blackberry 8230 that won't turn on. When the battery is charged, the red light flashes very slowly (about 10 seconds on, 10 seconds off). When I plug the USB cable into the computer, I see the BB hard drive for a brief second or two, then it disappears. It will appear briefly again about 20 seconds later, then disappear again. Is the battery shot? Or could there be something else going on? The phone was on the charger all night.

Less than a couple months ago, I got a new Pearl 9100. Two days ago I had to take the battery out and after I put the battery back on, the phone started to reset itself. It goes from the red light on the upper right corner to the Blackberry start screen with the white line where you can guess how much of the OS has loaded (percentage bar?)It loads about 1 - 2% of the bar and then it resets itself. I have tried to reload the OS according to the instructions providen on this site, but it is not possible, since the phone does not stay on long enough for the upgrade.

My Pearl 9100 will not, and has not since I have owned it, retrieve MMS. I get a notification that someone has sent me a message, my phone displays the message and says ***Not Retrieved Yet*** with a button underneath saying "Download Now" and "Expires mm/dd/yy/time". But after I click "Download Now", my phone does absolutely nothing. I have no idea what to do or where to start to even try to remedy this situation. My carrier is Bell Canada.

I recently downloaded BBM updated version and rebooted the phone, which rendered the phone completely useless. It does not boot up, just gets stuck at the Blackberry first loading page with the status bar showing 100%.

I've had this phone a while now but I just can't get even simplest taks, installing a new theme, working!!
At the Desktop Manager > Application Loader, I browse to the theme but the only highlighted files are the ALX extensions... all the other COD and JAD files are not selectable! Choosing the ALX file still doesn't give me the theme!!

My wife's Pearl 9100 has been having a lot of trouble backing up over BB Protect software, lately. It used to work perfectly fine before, but now it seems to start the backup and then it aborts after about 90% completion. Also the backup is extremely slow. The Pearl is connected through my home Wi-Fi router and we have 25 Mbps broadband connection, so there should be no speed issues at all, I would think.

my phone was in my pocket and I assume I pressed a combination of keys. The vertical scroll on my track pad does not work on the main screen or in these screen that gets me to applications and options etc. unless I hold down the ALT button. Now this is extremely annoying especially when trying to move fast through messages and options.
Is there are key combo or a setting I can use to remove this? I do not want to have to press the alt screen to move up and down!

The "facebook" calendar entries on my Pearl won't download to Outlook since I downloaded the latest upgrade. I didn't know Facebook had a calendar. I have now deleted Facebook App - still won't download. I have searched to find the 77 entries on my phone but can't locate them to transfer to Outlook on my desktop.

Pearl 9100 3G v6.0.0.481, Platform 6.6.0.151 Recently upgraded to OS 6. however, when I had OS 5, when entered my password to unlock my BB, I can press and hold down my aA^/# key (to the right of the space/0 key, and to the left of the return key) and my BB would go into vibrate sound profile. If it was already on vibrate profile, by holding that key, I would go to normal sound profile. Now, when I hold that key down, it ask me "Assign a Speed Dial to the #?"

What must I do to get my Blackberry Pearl 9100 to ring more than one time. If I'm not right next to it, I miss calls since it only rings once. Where do I find the option to set the number of times the phone rings?

My Pearl 8120 is becoming unusable due to its faulty roller ball. I want to replace it with a Pearl 9100. My current carrier is T-Mobile and I'd like to keep it because three other lines are on this account with mine.I believe I can get a code from RIM to unblock the SIM, is that right?T-Mobile does not have the BlackBerry 6.0 OS.Assuming I can unblock my SIM, will the phone run on T-Mobile's system or will I have to change carriers?

I have one unlocked Pearl 3G 9100 phone. I use this phone using Pre paid card. I want to switch the SIM cards from different carriers. Currently it has OS v5.0.0.748 (Bundle 1262, platform 6.2.0.69).
How can I update the OS on this phone at present and in the future without getting it from any carrier? If I download it from one carrier and install it, does the phone works with other carrier SIM card?

I have a BB 8100 (Pearl) and it will not boot only flashes red LED 3 times, pauses and flashes 2 more times.When I connect it to a PC, the computer doesn't see my device at all (yes, the USB port works--I back up regularly and can charge the battery). I've tried to connect with Desktop manager, Crack Mem, App Loader nothing seems to detect the device. I've been reading through posts for the last 2 days and can't seem to find any other solutions.So, if anyone out there has any other suggestions, please let me know!

I have messages that i am sending and recieving but once i come to school, they all delete for some reason. Once they are all deleted, i send acouple of message but when i check my message log, they are deleted again when i check. I know its not that my memory is full.

This only happens sometimes, but it causes me to pick up the phone when there is nothing new. does anyone know why it does this? (is there another reason it would flash besides new emails or txts or other messages) I have firmware 21.024.

Similar posts out here and can't find an answer: I have a BB Bold that was working fine today. Since 5:30 ET, it has gone to a black screen. When plugged in, the led light blinks 4 times, pauses, blinks 4 times, pauses, and so on. This blinking pattern has continued for hours. I unplugged and removed thte battery, and then returned the battery to the phone and plugged it in again with no improvement. The phone will not turn on and continues to blink as described. There has been no drop or moisture damage to the unit. Any ideas as to what is going on?

My sms messages are all messed up. They are in the wrong order, and the red light won't stop flashing, even after I've read and replied to an SMS. I've tried to back it up using the desktop software but it get stuck at the smart-card bit and wont go any further, so I have to unplug it. How can I reset my phone to make this go away?

Phone turned itself off. Tryed plugging it into a wall charger and laptop usb cable to charge, but each time the red time stay constant for about a minute and then it changes to flashing four times quickly then a short pause and then flashing four times again (and it just repeats this over and over again.)

I was on my way home on the train and running low on batteries, but thought i had enough to quickly browse the applications.I'd installed the free Time app earlier that day and checked it out, and it wasnt really to my taste, so I decided to delete the app. It warned me the blackberry would need to restart which was fine, only it turned off and didnt come back on.I thought it had just ran out of battery but now after four hours of charging, and plugging it to my PC the blackberry still wont start. My laptop wont even recognise its plugged into anything and every button I press just gets the flashing red light.
