For some reason my BB curve decided to suddenly show me a blank screen and a constant red light. I took out the battery and put it back again and have been charging it for the past 40 mins now (thought my battery went beyond the red level). But I still don't have my phone working....
Thanks but strangely enough - I do not have an apploader folder for me to delete the Vendor.xml file. in fact there is no Vendor.xml file in my RIM folder.
I forced the application loader through the command prompt but now i do not get any USB:PIN detection. it's a blank field under the connection tab of the loader.
