The situtation that my Blackberry Torch has recently been in is that the out of no where, the Blackberry will freeze up. The LED indicator will be lit up for a short period of time, for a total of two times. After that, the system reboots itself. During this problematic process, I cannot use the buttons at all to try to stop it or do something else.I have reinstalled the OS Software and have done a hard reset during the red LED indicates.I don't have warranty becase I have purchase this off my friend after his warranty was over and he got himself another phone.
My Torch is about 9 months old. I had no problems with it until about a month ago. It constantly reboots. It is not software. Sometimes when you close the slider, it goes dead and reboots. I have now seen that if the slider is open and you softly wiggle the screen part it reboots.. not always.. This tells me that it is a hardware problem. A factory fault if you ask me. My wife's Torch is 2 months old. Same problem. Also reboots for nothing. Work colleague, also a torch. Just over a year old. Same problem. Reboots 4 or 5 times a day. This is definitely not software. If you put it down too hard, or keep it in your pocket. A lot of the time it reboots...
My phone, torch 9800 constantly reboots. What do I do? Tried to update software - does not work. When you see "connection with the JVM "phone reboots to infinity, there is an error.
its just been 5 months and it has stopped working, the phone does not on, it just shows a red flash lite on the right hand corner and a battery with a red cross on it.
Anyone notice that when you make a phone call there is a red flashing led that you can see through the casing directly to the right of the status light? Took a week for me to notice.
I have a torch 9800 and i woke up and it looked like it had just died but the red light was on so it obviously isnt dead, ive tried upgrading the software but keep getting error msgsi dont know whats going on but
I tried a new battery and that didn't work. The phone was in my pocket I had sent a text and 15 minutes later it was off. I tried a hard reboot and charging it. It will not power up, no red light either.
So I noticed the green and red lights ( talk and end buttons) and the track pad don't light up at night. I believe my Bold used to light up. Have I done something to change in options.
Has anyone noticed the faint red blinking light to the right of the notification led while on a phone call?It only happens when using the handset and if you activate speakerphone, it stops until you put the call on the handset again.
My torch 9800 has a green light blinking at the top. This is where the red light normally blinks when I receive a message. What made the light blink green, and how can I get it to stop?
Torch 9800. My L.E.D light will not turn off. It is blue. It is not flashing. It is not because of the bluetooth (I leave it off and do not use.) if the message indicator is on it is purple (blue + red). The other colors still work but end up blended with the blue. I have pulled the battery. (obviously it didn't help or I wouldn't be posting this.) I have contacted my carrier for support. No help. They will just replace the phone. My warranty is void and can't afford to buy a new torch. I have turned off everything I can and checked all options. Check the cpu and can not find anything running that shouldn't be.
I have Torch 9800 that won't turn on. My 9800 has the latest version of BB OS available (unless there was one released within the last 4 days) The red light only comes on when charged and goes on and off. When plugged into my PC it disconnects from the PC and then reconnects. Sometimes the charging battery symbol comes on and the blackberry loading screen after but the blackberry loading screen shuts off. I have tried a new battery and that is not the issue.
I read that you can do an OS reload but my BB is not showing as connected under my connections (the noise indicates a device has been plugged in)
I had my torch 9800 almost a year now and I woke up saturday morning to find it completely off and it was on charge all night, I've tried taking the battery out and putting it back in. I've also had the battery out for 24 hours and when I put it back in the red light comes on for about 20 seconds (steady not flashing) and the goes off but that's only happened the once other than that I've had no luck. I've left it on charge tried a different battery and it still doesn't work. I've also put by battery in another torch and it works fine.
i have a torch 9800 .....after putting the battery in it boots up gives me the att screen then operates for 5-15 minutes then goes black screen with the led flashing red. how can i solve this issue to operate device
All of a sudden my home keys across the bottom of the 9800 do no light up. I checked the backlight settings for display but they had no effect on the home keys. Even in a completely dark room, when I take the 9800 out of the holster, the screen lights up but the home keys are out.
i have a new torch 9800 and the keyboard does not light up, even in dark areas. i have tried the battery on and off but nothing. is there a setting for this.
Is there any way or any app that will display the battery level as a percentage? I've installed battery watch but I need to open the app in order to see the info. Also is there any apps that turn off the shutter sound?
The touch functionality still works, however, the screen does not light up or becomes extremely distorted and fuzzy most of the time. I called Rogers support and they seemed to believe it could be a software problem - but are you serious? I think they were just blowing me off.Okay - basically about a month ago, my screen would become pixelated and distorted when i would slide my touch screen up to reveal the keyboard. This problem still exists today. Ic ould sometimes get rid of it by locking and unlocking the screen, but after a day or two that never worked, so I began to use the phone only by using the touch screen. However, for about a week now the screen does not light up at all anymore. I would press the lock button and the bottom four buttons would light up - I would press the lock button again and they would turn off, but no screen illumination. Maybe - MAYBE - once a day I can manage to illuminate the screen and use it. But for the most part, the screen stays unlit.
I had my BB Torch 9800 for few month. Previously used to work fine, all my emails used to show up in message folder. But these days when I receive emails my bb flashes red and it shows on top of the screen emails icon. But when I open my messages folder it shows empty folder without any emails, even though I can see the email icon showing there is emails awaiting. I do aware of this option that, if I press bb menu and then press show all, my email address with my name will show up. With this way I can view received emails. But I don't want to use this option, as I prefer all my emails goes to message folder, that way I can have more space to download other apps.
Note: if i reboot my device all emails shows up in message folder! I don't want to reboot my device everytime I face this problem.
When someone sends me an email, it takes 15 minutes for it to show up on my torch. If I log into my outlook account on a computer, I can see the email has been delivered to me.I called BB support, and they said that there is no way I can do an instant feed to my phone from an outlook account. I don't believe this is true.Does anyone know how I can resolve this? I am not using enterprise, I set up as internet mail account
I shut off my Blackberry Torch today morning before a flight and after that I could restart it - it allways ends with the symbol "no batterie". It starts a little bit the normal start up procedure (1 or 2 mm from the white nooting line I can see) and than it stopps and shows me the battery symbol. How can I fix this urgently - I'm on a business trip and I need the BB!
Just got my torch last night! yayyy! I did read in one of the threads there is a way to bring the virtual keyboard down by swiping up and down (I think). But when I do that, I always open the manage connections option. Can someone explain how to get it to show wo opening the physical keyboard?
As an avid business crackberry fan (and business manager) for over 3 years, I was appalled to find that I would need to slide the keyboard out to enter my security code, especially when I would do it 50-100 times per day. As every other touchscreen phone on the market has a pattern unlock method, this is the single issue preventing from purchasing this phone(s) PLEASE ISSUE AN UPDATE/APP/PATCH anything to bring this vital security & efficiency issue up to par.
I have already installed the new Desktop Manager 6.0 that I downloaded from the RIM site.
I am thinking the safest way to not have a problem is the just restore my 9800 data from a back up rather than do the Switch Device thing. Anyone worried it might bring erroneous crap into the new 6.0 OS.
Maybe it would be better to redo my settings after the data install to make sure all is clean and working correctly. Some of the 5.0 setting would not be applicable to the new 6.0 software.
