BB Storm :: Heating Of Handset And Very Low Battery Backup?
May 4, 2011
i have used this hand set for two days and its chager does not work and if charged by USB cable, it get heated up than its touch screen stop responding and it hangs alot after every incoming call it get hanged... no response, utill reboot.its battery back up is very low only 5 hr of standby...
Found the culprit that was causing my Storm to drain the battery and get hot, It was an app called StormSlider also called BerrySlider.There has been a few updates since release 5.0 but the author doesnt seem to have got the battery drain problem solved yet i was running version 5.08, this has cost me a battery as it cooked it whilst it was on charge.Ive removed the app and my phone is fine again.
Need Help/Suggestion from Mobile Gurus right here .I have 1 Year Old N73 ME and I mainly use it for Calling and Texting. Very Occasionally I use it for Music/Gaming and Browsing the Web.The phone is completely in excellent condition
The problem is that: While charging ONLY the Battery gets too much HOT and it never shows Battery is Full (Charged it for Max 1 Hour 45 Minutes) This problem suddenly appeared, so I formatted the Memory Card as well as Hard Format/Reset the Phone, but still the Battery is heating too much
After disconnecting the Phone from Charger, the Battery is FULL and I can use it without any problem and as usual. The Talktime right now is around 2.5 Hours and Standby time is around 2-3 Days
My bb curve 8520 is about a year old. 3 days ago i noticed the battery went from 100% to 0% in a span of some minutes. i recharged the battery and noticed it kept doing the same thing. I then replaced the battery thinking it had run its course but the problem persists. I have no open programs running and no new applications installed that might be using up the battery. the phone gets warm and the battery dies rapidly.
i got the curve 9320 2 months ago, the first phone was over heating and the battery only lasted 4 hours maximum, so vodafone replaced it, then the second one is now doing excatly the same thing, nothing is switched on, on the phone that would cause the battery to do this, fully charged this morning, not one call or text and the phone is red hot and dead 4 hours later, could this be a manufactoring fault?
My iPhone 4 has recently started heating up and draining the battery very quickly, I updated to 5.1.1 when it became available but I can't say that is the definite cause for this problem as it started occurring about 1 week after updating.
I have searched the web/these boards and tried countless things but nothing seems to be working. Basically if I do anything on the phone it will immediately start to heat up and drain the battery. I have recently had the screen replaced, not by apple themselves but by a certified specialist that uses apple equipment, could this be part to blame?
I have tried a 2/3 full restores, resetting network, resetting settings. I did notice that when iCloud was disabled it didn't seem to drain the battery as quick but personally I don't want to settle for having to run my phone with half the functions turned off!
One last thing I am going to try is something I read on cnet which was to do a backup onto my computer (I have been doing all the resets via wireless/cloud at the moment) and then reset the setting, run the battery right down and then full restore the battery to 100%.
I got this phone 10 days ago and getting used to it. The battery charge was ok for the first couple of cycle (every alternate day) and in the last 2 cycle the battery gets charged and drains within a few hours being in standby mode. During this period the phone is quite hot.
My Xperia ray phone suddenly not charging fully and phone gets drained within 3hours not even doing anythingI have bought a new battery 2 days back , reset the phone to factory setting. Used all the battery boosting softwares. Charged the phone during switched off. So the problem is clearly a hardware issue. I bought the phone in April 2012 from Amazon UK . I want to know am i coverd under warrenty or not. How to fix this issue. I love this phone so i dont to lose it or buy a new one.
I've had the 3D for a few weeks now and overall think it's a great smartphone. I was expecting poor battery life but on two occasions it went from fully charged to brick dead overnight (6-7 hours). Most apps, bluetooth and GPS off. I haven't experienced such quick drain during the day when I'm using it. I have also noticed an excessive amount of heat while charging.
my iphone 4is over heating and the battery life is diminishing very quickly ive rebooted the phone deleted the apps that where open and turnede it off for an hour but it still is doing the same thing with in 5 minutes the battery life has gone from 66% to 59%?
My girlfriend owns a Razr and every since the ICS update she has been telling me her phone has giving her problems. It gets hot when listening to pandora or videos after a short time in use. Her battery life wasnt the greatest from the beginning but after ICS it's worse. I was suppose to do this a week ago after I mentioned. Now shes threatening to take my Maxx.
What happened is my x10 stopped charging so I did a full backup, using backup and restore, so I had all the information saved. my service provider, when they called to replace the unit, advised me that they no longer supported the x10 and the handsets they could offer me were Blackberry!So although I do have an Android phone now (as well as the Blackberry) it's not an x10, or indeed a Sony Ericsson.Is there any way to get the messages, short of finding someone with a pre 2.3 x10 (as I believe backup and restore doesn't work on 2.3) who will let me restore them to retrieve them that way?
Blackberry Storm 9500, carrier: Vodafone , Australia
Im having major issue's with my 9500 not charging ive put a new battery in and taken the phone to a local mobile phone repair man both unsuccesful when i put the battery in another phone it will charge just not in mine.
I have a BB Storm 9530 with OS 5.0x. Of late the response has become slower, The memory is nearly full (only 28MB free in OS area). There is a slight improvement when I pull out the batter and allow it to re-start. Is there a better solution. Will it be OK to change to either OS 6.0x or 4.0x
i have a blackberry storm 2 with vodafone (in the netherlands) Since having the phone the screen has been freezing. In other words every now and then (atleast once a day) i try to click on a app in the middle of the screen and it reacts as if i am pressing the ESC button....sending me back to the desktop. If after calling i want to end a call i press the red button and it again sends me back to the desktop but the conversation carrys on going (really annoying if you get voice mail...can cost a bomb shell) After a while or after pressing many buttons in the middle it starts to act normally again. So this is the problem...i have tried a battery pull, i have tried leaving the battery out for 3/5 days i have even had the phone and battery in a bag of rice to dry it out (as i heard it might have been damp) all with failiure.
okay so right now i been using a blackberry storm 9530 unlocked for tmobile. phone is great but is a pain in the *** when texting. so now im getting the bold 9700 unlocked in few days. so the help that i need, is how to save all my contacts to simcard? or how using blackberry desktop manager 5.0?i did that tutorial but after i click synchronize everything loads but the outlook express doesnt pop-up.or to make it easier, show me how to save them using outlook express 2007. (btw i use windows 7).
As some of you may know blackberry services are now avaliable for cricket.The only thing is i unlocked the phone and now i cant get the blackberry plan. Is there a way i can restore my storm too all of the ORIGINAL settings??
I used the regular headset that came with the device. Now when i disconnect the headset, the headset icon remains on and i cannot used the handset normally....
I have recently purchased a storm 9530 unlocked (previously was registered with verizon wireless). I have a blackberry plan from a different service provider. Everything seems to be working fine except the email, where it says the set is not registered. I have registered it by going to advanced options-host routing table and then registered it. I even got a message from my service provider which says that my wireless handset has been registered.
Still I am getting the same message - the set is not registered, go to options - advanced options - host routing table and register. Also the BB app world is not downloading on to the set. The icon is there but when I click it the web browser opens and nothing happens. There's just white screen with blackberry written as in when you open a BB browser.
I just updated my Storm to 5.0, but during the final step the program froze. I removed the wire, and had to close the program. The storm no longer opens my txt messages. I can go into the folder, and see like a line of what was sent, but can't actually read the whole txt.
My Storm is unreliable as it periodically crashes to a white screen with something like "JVM Error 102r", I returned it to vodafone and it was sent away and returned with the latest software installed.However the samecrash keeps occuring, rather than sending it away for 1 - 2 weeks for a software reinstall I do it myself from the Blackberry Desktop Manager, this is a pain and an inconvinience but I have to live with it untill my contract ends and I can leave blackberry for ever.
My more immediate problem is that my home PC crashed and while I was setting up my new home PC my Blackberry also crashed. I downloaded and installed the latest Desktop Manager on to the new PC but I was unable to install and update my Blackberry to V5 software the reason being a connection error "cant connect you may need to enter a password"
I installed an older version of Desktop Manager which gives me access to v4.7 which installed successfuly however, and this is my pressing issue, I can not restore from my back up files (either the backup.ipd files or via the backup cab files) the reason it gives is "you do not have permission to open this file" so is it a windows 7 issue or a Blackberry issue? as I cant even copy the files(s) from my back up usb drive to the new computers HDD.
I recently went on a trip and took over 200 photos on my Blackberry. I need a simple way to transfer all of them to my computer, since obviously emailing them one at a time or moving them one at a time is not practical.When I go to Options > Memory, all options are set to On (Media Card Support, Media Transfer Protocol, and Mass Storage Mode Support).When I go to Media > Pictures > All Pictures, I see all my photos. When I go to Picture Folders, it says Device Memory.
While connected to my PC via USB, I try to pull it up in Windows Explorer. I see options for MTP Device - Device Memory and MTP Device - Media Card. There are only empty folders under Device Memory. Media Card has nothing under Data, and only my music files under Media. Similar behavior when I pull it up under Windows Media Player.
So I bought this used storm. Touch screen worked perfectly.But it had tons of dust under screen. so i did some research found a video on how to clean it. So I lefted the screen with a guitar clip, put a thin lint removing cloth underscreen. Got all the dust out, I was excited phone was looking Good.BUT NOW PHONE DOES NOT RESPOND TO ANY TOUCH AT ALL. I mean NONE. Anyone know what happened? What I need to replace or do now? Any suggestions or feedback would be great.
I just got an Xperia x8 and I want to plug it in to charge the battery and also to connect it via usb to my laptop but I don't get how to plug the charger into the phone. I can see where it is supposed to go (to the left of the on/off switch) on the top edge of the handset but, there there is a covering over the jack with a usb symbol on it. I can not believe I am having so much trouble with such a simple task, it's embarrassing. how to plug the usb cord or battery charger into the x8 handset.
Well long story short my blackberry storm died today and verizon is sending me a replacement, and was nice enough to send me a storm 2 as a replacement only bad news is, the storm 2 replacement does NOT come with a battery door.so my question is, does the blackberry storm battery door fit the storm 2? if not,
does anyone know any reliable websites where I can get a blackberry storm 2 battery door?
Somtimes when reading a text or using camera my Storm will re-boot and when it comes back up it will say the battery is dead. This happens after its been on the charger all night. The only way to fix it is to use quickpull. Which i have set to re-boot everyday at 5am.. Could my battery be going bad or what?
