    So I've been using my Classic of a few weeks now. And I restarted the device, holding down the power button and letting the countdown go to 0, and now it is stuck on a Verizon screen and I cannot get it off of this screen, it's been about an hour so far. See attachment.

    EDIT: I did connect it to my computer and opened Blackberry Link and it is not recognizing the device as plugged in.

    Try holding the volume up and down buttons in together until you see the loading circle.

    Holding the up/down volume buttons at the same time does nothing. Held them for over a minute a few times.

    You will probably have to plug into a pc and run an autoloader and restore the Os or return for warranty.

    As your still under warranty, you should try a loader, it might fix it.

    I had the same problem. My phone won't turn on. Turned out my power button got stuck pressed down inside (the physical power button is not pressed).

    I pressed on the power button really hard and it seemed to have released something inside and it no longer kept rebooting.

    My problem now is that sometimes when I press the power button, it shows the 3 second count down and turns off the phone instead of just locking it.

    I know this is an old thread but the same thing happened to me this morning. Searched for about an hour before i found out about the "alt-delete-right shift key" reset. Couldn't believe it came straight from Verizon's site...and it WORKED!

    Had the same issue, the device was continuously rebooting. None the power or volume keys worked. Resolved with alt+delete+right **** key after several attempts
