Low battery mode.. radio off? Wont turn on..

[Jacobfreeman]

Alright so I went a day or two without charging my BB, and it started doing low battery beeps for alittle while them the radio turned off..
Now I have plugged my phone back into a charger and the radio is still off, and now my phone is saying "Battery draining, shutting down handheld."
I have no idea if my phone is even charging because when I have it connected to the wall charger it doesnt have a red light lit up or anything that should show that it is charging..

what should i do?

chill out and wait an hour

I would unplug your phone and do a battery pull. Once it has started up again, plug the phone in again.

And if after the radio is still off, you can always force it on by calling 911 and immediately ending the call before it actually connects.
I always do this and it keeps the radio on until the battery gives out.

That's living on the wild side!!!

Another approach is let the battery charge 10-15 mins,
unplug the charger, pull the battery, then reinsert it.
If the battery level is at 15-20 or higher the device will do its
usual start up and the blackberry be functional for whatever
tasks you have in mind.

Cheers!

Or you could go to "Manage Connections" and turn it back on from there, if you don't want to dial 911 or any number for that matter.

i agree - calling the emergency services should not be done to test anything!
