Hi,

I got a blackberry from ebay but when i use battery or usb power it blinks 4 times then pause then another 2 times.

they said they had tried to update the OS but it failed.

I have no idea i have tried everything

Will it turn on?

Has it had time to charge from a wall charger? It may be a very dead battery, or you may need to go through the recovery process linked to by silence69.

yep tried all that but no luck, computer doesnt recognize the blackberry so i cant do anything, i have a blackberry bold but no luck getting it activated.

If the PC is not even loading it up at all, try this:

It may at least get the PC to see the phone.

If it doesn't turn on it won't be recognised by your pc. I think you've got a dead berry - follow the intructions in the link to breathe life back into it.

Sure thang. Do you have another bb lying around to add me on bbm? If not then i'm on gmail chat if you're online? Although the intructions are easy to follow - did you do each step?
