    i purchase my Q about 2months ago..but recently my Q been acting up. Yea, so anyway i was on amazon app (sideloaded) and about 3mins in the app the screen froze and went black. i waited for a few moments then i decided to take the battery out..afterwards i reassemble it back together to see if it'll work, but no luck. now ill press the power down but the screen will stay black and the red light will come on for a second and go off. Man if there's anyone that can help ill appreciate it. Thanks for reading.

    P.S. stuck using the 8530 till then..not a good day.

    Try plugging it into the wall to charge for a while, see if that helps, or you might have to reload the os,

    The safest way is via BB link, it will put the official for your carrier back on your device.

    Right, i read on that im considering doing that. but by doing it this way wont it reset all media (pics, music etc..) and contacts and apps...cause if so i dont think i can risk that.

    Have you done a back up of your phone lately, if yes then once link installs your os you can simply just do a restore.

    ****, and no..unless bb does it, itself. but if measure like this has to happen and only can happen then it might need to be done anyway i guess.

    Unfortunately you might not have a choice to get it back up and working. Sorry hope it works out.

    BlackBerry is a better experience.
