    Hi everyone, please help me!

    Last night I fell asleep with my phone next to me, and I know that this isn't very smart but when I woke up my phone was off and the red led was flashing. When I tried booting it, it did nothing, just flashing it's red light. I tried charging it, but with no succes either. So I have no idea what went wrong. Could it be that I rolled over my phone and that I messed up something inside?
    I searched the internet looking for solutions and I found out that other people were having the same problem... However, I didn't really find any answers.

    Then I tried connecting my Blackberry to my computer. The computer did notice my phone was connected, but the Blackberry Desktop Software failed to connect to the phone. It just showed some error.

    I found out that when I kept the phone charging, with no battery in it, a white immage with a 'no battery sign' appeared. Does that mean something's wrong with my battery?

    Please help me! Thanks for reading this, I hope someone will help me out!

    Did you recently create a BlackBerry ID through AppCenter or load any new programs? I had what sounds like the same thing happen to mine tonight. In fact, I just posted a thread not 5 minutes ago. Mine is stuck at about 75% on reboot. The reason I ask is because I'm wondering if it had anything to do with something I did in the AppCenter.

    No I didn't, so I guess that has nothing to do with it... But my screen stays black and does not boot at all.

    Thanks for commenting. I'm trying to update the OS right now but it's giving an error saying it can't connect to the device... but the display is now showing a charging sign, so I guess I'm gonna keep it connected...
