How about trying a new battery?
What good would that do?
Your charging port is broken. You either need to replace it yourself (if you are good at soldering) or just sell the phone
so i ended up buying a new battery. when i went to the store to purchase it, the people at the store and their charger seemed to work just fine. i get home later on in the evening, and same thing. charger wont work..im thinking the charger itself is bad?
Going to give it one more shot with buying a new charger, and if that doesnt work, might just buy a 9900 outright so i can buy the Q10 when it comes out
Thanks for the suggestion john!
Looks like it is the charger, since the one at the store worked. Either it has a broken cord somewhere or it does not have enough output.
Have you used it before? On the Bold?
yeah ive used it before. its a 2nd hand phone from my sister. To be honest, this might not even be a BB USB cord.
Ill report back soon!
And check the charger's output. It should be 700 mA or higher. Blackberries are very picky with this.
for sure, will do! thanks uglyduckly!
so i just went ahead and purchased a used 9900.
with so many problems with the 9900, i just figured it was worth it to just get it over with, and use the 9700 as a back up when the q10 comes out.
thanks for the help everyone!
