BB Torch :: Unable To Work If Connected To The Mains?
Dec 29, 2011
I have had a 9860 Torch for 15 months with Orange now, with no problems to mention. The phone however started to play up, the battery seem to run dry very quickly and I had to put it on charge daily without having used the phone much, ie no bluetooth, not surfing the net etc. Then the phone started to go off when I took it off charge. The screen would go black and only the butons at the bottom would be alight. Nothing would happen if I pressed any of the buttons, and I am not able to restart the phone. I then have to put it on charge again, take the battery out and re-insert it, and it will start up again as long as it is connected to the mains. The battery indicator shows the battery is fully charged, I did however buy a new battery and downloaded the latest update just before Christmas, which seemed to solve the problem for a few days, however the phone has now reverted to the same problem. The phone works perfectly well when connected to the mains, but the screen goes black as soon as it is disconnected, and will only start up again if connected back up to the mains and battery taken out and re-inserted.
Just recently my Defy refuses to recharge using the mains socket charger connected to the usb cable.It charges perfectly well through the computer and also through my car socket..........what am I missing?
I'm new to blackberry. I don't have problems connecting to wifi, but the problem is once I'm connected, I cannot browse any website. Maybe my connection preference is to Mobile Networks Only, but how do I change that? I cannot search it from the options menu. I'm using blackberry torch 9800.
Everything on my phone is working fine except for email. This started when my service was cut off for a few hours because we forgot to pay the bill. At first no internet was working, but then I deleted a service book (something like blackberry internet 2) and everything works now including facebook, browser and BBM. I'm still not getting emails though. I have redone the registration and reset the phone countless times.
I was having an issue with the screen not working at all last week. I went to get that fixed (they replaced a flex cable?) Anyway, it seemed fine after that except that I have noticed that the screen wont work when the phone is closed. It will not diplay who is calling or who a text is from until I open it. I can see the blackberry uploaing when I reset the phone for a few seconds, and then it goes black and I cant do anything until sliding the phone open.My first thought is that there is something wrong with the way the cable was put in. It works better than ever when it is open, but not when it is closed.
My iPhone 4 has today decided not to charge from either mains or USB. When plugged in it starts to but then comes up saying that charging is not supported with this accessory even when it is plugged directly into the mains. It was a little damp the other day after my daughter left it out in the rain without me realizing, it went into the airing cupboard for the day and then charged fine when i got it after work, but today it just wont charge?
I have a nice stylish apple iphone dock. It takes a straight forward apple iphone cable and then connects to my PC.What i am trying to do is also connect it to the mains, so that my dock becomes a charger dock without the need for connecting to my PC. - So from a standard USB input, i need to have it connect to BOTH my PC and power.I tried a mains powered USB dock (7 port, 3A / 5V hub) - but it doesnt work, it still only starts charging when the cable connecting the hub to my PC is connected, it doesnt use the mains going throguh the hub to charge the iphone I have an iPhone 4s (if that makes a difference). So What do I do?
My daughter dropped my wifes iphone in the bath and it will now only power up when plugged into the mains. When plugged in it cannot find the sim and according to the local apple store the wifi antenna is also broken. We are not bothered about the phone it is the 1500 photos and videos of our girls which we don't want to lose. The phone hasn't been backed up recently and she is not registered with icloud so that is out the window. So, I thought that if the phone could be powered by the mains and somehow connected to my mac at the same time I could perhaps get the photos synced.
It worth pointing out that the USB doesn't turn the phone on when connected to the mac. Is there such a cable in existence which has two usb leads from the iphone dock connector? I just cant believe that the photos and videos cannot be accessed and saved by a company that always tells us they are cutting edge and ahead of the rest of the market, especially as the phone traded in will get, repaired, wiped and sold on as a refurbed phone, if they can do that they can get us our files off.
Last week I bought a S2 and the charging from the mains has been fine. I bought another S2 for my wife, and she put this on charge in the bedroom but after a few seconds of putting on charge the charge stopped and it said 'Battery Disconnected'. Tried with my charge which was plugged in and worked OK with mine and it said the same. Tried the charger in a different plug socket in another room and the phone didn't show the message and charged ok overnight. My phone charges OK from the bedroom, but the other doesn't, but it charges ok elsewhere so it can't be any issue with the plug sockets.
With my Curve 9300 I can connect to a wifi router through wifi options but when I try to open a webpage it does not work, not even my google talk works. I have also installed Opera but no luck.
Phone does not display a four square symbols which confirms that wifi is connected and activated.
While checking the Wifi option it says it is connected and profile selected.
the wifi says its connected to my home hub but when i try to browse it says the radio is not on?I have tried to do a battery re-boot and the same message comes up?
My IPhone 5 will connect to wifi and the cellular says LTE which usually would work. Safari will load pages VERY slowly but nothing else will work. The Facebook app says "Network Error"- Messages wont send and I cannot download IOS 7.1.2 because it says "Software Update Unavailable" I have tried restart and resetting my phone. I have also tried resetting my network setting. And I have tried more than one Wifi connection. Nothing is working.
I am infuriated with my storm 2, wifi works on every other device I have but on my storm it is connected with good signal but does not transmit data?? What is wrong?
I have an iPhone4. I recently noticed the when I connect the headphones to listen to music, I can hear only from the right side headphone. I assumed that I had damaged the left headphone and got a brand new set to find out that it is the iphone that is faulty and not the headphones.
For handof, SMS, phone calls, they are connected to same wifi, so they can connected with each other ( in same apple id) but for instant hotspot there is no WiFi, so how will mac turn ON hotspot of iPhone.
My wifi is connected, shows great signal strength, yet it doesn't work? Anything I try doesn't work, FB, Chrome, any app that uses internet connection.. I don't get what's going on... I did remove the WIFI info and forget it, then reconnect... that doesn't work. The only thing that fixes it, is if I restart my phone.
I bought an iPhone on eBay with no returns and it came today. It it locked until it is connected to iTunes and the top lock button is stuck and wont work.
I am having problems with the combination of radio apps (e.g. TuneIn, CBC Radio, NPR), and a Bluetooth speaker (Blackweb SoundPebble). The apps work fine and will play through the Nexus 5 speakers or headphones when no Bluetooth speaker is connected. However, when I connect a Bluetooth speaker, the apps do not work - they don't get past the title screen. The Bluetooth speaker works OK with locally stored files e.g. music saved to the device.
I have a SM-G900F (no carrier) European S5, bought like a couple months ago, not rooted or installed any custom rom, full stock on 5.0.
When I enable Mobile Hotspot or share the connection through USB, the other devices connect just fine, but no data is received at all.
* Tested with both a laptop and another phone * To rule out carrier restrictions, I put the SIM in a Nexus4 and enabled Wifi tethering, then connected to it with the S5, works np, just not the other way around.
Voice input quits working when I place the phone in the car dock. Voice search (the app you get to by holding search) and Soundhound give me errors every time I try to use them with the vehicle dock connected. If I disconnect the vehicle dock, they work again, and as soon as I reconnect it they quit working.
Strangely enough, the app "Text by Voice" seems to be unaffected.
i have a problem with my galaxy S5 ATT. so im using Netgear wireless n-150 router WNR 1000,its updated,but the problem was before the update and after the update it is the same. i'm using yahoo,gmail and comcast emails.i was able to setup yahoo email without any problems,i can send and receive emails from my phone when connected to wifi and without wifi. but i wasnt able to add to that stock email app my gmail account and comcast while i was connected to my wifi.it gave me error that it wasnt able to connect to the server to verify information.
So I tried to set it up on the mobile network and there was no problem. so now when i connected to wifi in my house i cant receive emails or send them using gmail and comcast email,yahoo account is working fine. i checked all the settings,i reset the router,still nothing.the funny part is if i download gmail app it is working without any problems.and if i connect to any other wireless router,all 3 emails work. also when i connect to my wifi, I'm getting internet and i'm able to open pages without any problems. So it should be some settings in the router probably ...
I recently bought a BB Torch 9800 on contract and it was faulty, i got it swapped but still no luck. When i go on 'Manage Connections' it says my BIS and BES arent connected, meaning BBM doesnt work. I've been in the phone shop 3 times this week and its really starting to get annoying!!
I am plugging the usb cable into my LG G3 and connecting it to my PC. Then I have the window which gives me info about the three options which I can choose from, but automatically my G3 starts to charge even if I have selected MTP mode. How I can change my settings, can't understand what's wrong?
SInce the latest update 12070, if my phone is plugged into the mains charging when the power / wake up button is pressed, the touch screen is notally non responsive, and you cannot use the phone. If however, you reove the mains lead BEFORE pressing the power/wakeup button, everything works fine.Rolled back to previous update, everything worked fine - mains power or not, put the update back on, and the problem returned!
I have checked Service Status and it tells me that:Blackberry Internet service - Not connectedBlackberry enterprise server - Not connectedI have checked with my service provider which is MTN and all is ok.
Had this BB9700 for 2 weeks now, still struggling coz I can't connect to any WiFi. At home, even I turned the WiFi on it will only show white mark and the WiFi logo is still gray. When I try to scan for network to other areas it will ask for hotspot login. My friend can easily connect to her WiFi at home using the BB 9000 I cant understand. Do I need to setup anything?
