Blackberry Bold 9700 Won't Turn On!

**heyfromjen** · 11-14-2010, 07:32 AM

I've had my Bold for only a few months and yesterday the screen went white and wouldn't do anything. I've pulled the battery a couple of times but it only gets about 3/4 thru the download bar and stops. What can I do?

Doing that will lose all my stuff from my phone?

It will reset it back to factory default. Did you back up your phone before this started happening?

The stuff on your memory card wont be affected!

You can't start the phone, So you cant take a backup..

But its better to have a working phone rather then thinking about the stuff...lol

Hope you have earlier backup..

And one more thing..

Turn on the Phone and Press the Back key while turning it on..

Dont leave the key until the phone totally turns on...(maybe it will/maybe it wont)

How am I supposed to download the OS?

**danielcj** · 11-14-2010, 09:52 AM

How long do you wait for it to boot up? My phone used to stall 3/4 but if you get it a few minutes it would continue on. Total boot time was 15 or so.

I had this same problem last month. I just called tech support for my carrier. They had me uninstall and reinstall the software. It took about 45 mins but they'll stay on the phone with you and walk you through all the steps

3. Replace battery
4. ???
5. Profit!

Go to the blackberry website, then navigate to the device software section, select your carrier and download the latest they have to offer, then install it, then load it with BBSAK, download and install BBSAK from www.bbsak.org
