Belive me i can tell you how to fix it, that means ur phone is not conecting with the battery, just drop the phone on a carpeted floor face ear side up of course. I know it sounds crazy but it works u must jar it up. don`t drop it any higher than 3 feet. try it a couple of times until it starts chargeing and then once it charges cut it on i promise try it Was this answer helpful?

Someone said: Mr. Blake: Awesome who could of thouth that that something as simple as this could work! I have a Blackberry Bold 9000, it worked for me!
Someone said: Wow, this actually worked! The charger peice that sticks into my phone sort sort of 'crooked' it self after dropping it a few times with it connected, but I jiggled it and it straighten up. So it's prob a good tip to drop it with it disconnected. haha. But it works Thanks for that tip!

Someone said: it didn`t work for me. so i kept trying and it still didn`t work. eventually i unplugged my phone and plugged it back in and my screen broke. oops!

Someone said: dam u it broke my PHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!u twat
Someone said: wht does it mean if u break an hourglass??
Someone said: this isnt funny....i have had this issue for a couple of times and it automatically used to fix on its own..but today that never happened...i tried almost everything...and finally stumbled on this and thought-why not try it, doesnt harm you see...i tried...didnt succeed the first 4 times and finally the 5th , it started working...yippie.....thank you very much for saving me from running around to get my fone fixed....
Someone said: IT WORKS!!(((:
Someone said: this actually freaking works! no way i couldnt believe it :D
Someone said: FYI All, blackberrys are known for this issue of battery not connecting to the device and sitting loose in the battery compartment. The actual fix for the whole battery issue and the phone not turning on is snugging a piece of anything ( carton, thin plastic, whatever fits) right between the battery and the phone frame from the top side of the battery just to leave no gaps between the battery and the phone conductor that connects from the bottom. This would be the long term fix. Dropping the phone moves the battery and might reconnect, but trust me not for too long before the issue reappears......
Someone said: It really worked ! THANK YOU SO MUCH ^___^
phipps.leah said: holy cow! it worked! I DROPPED IT LIKE 10 TIMES AND IT WORKED! it's awesome! THANK YOU TIMES A MILLION!

jtv4919 said: thats sick that it really works omg thanks for the person who asked and thanks for the commentersss.:P
Someone said: So Im based in Nigeria and at first thought all the comments were a ploy to break my blackberry, but sure enough I hit in on the floor twice and it worked. It doesnt have to be hard,just drop it gently on the floor. I dont have carpet on my floor so I laid down an old towel and dropped it there :)
Someone said: HI THERE GUYS
I JUST WANT TO INFORM YOU OKES THAT THE PROBLEM WILL MOST PROBLY COME BACK AND ITS BETTER NOT TO DROP YOUR PHONES AS TECHNICIANS LIKE ME CA QUICKLY AND EASILY PICK UP IF PHONES HAVE BEEN ABUSED AND WILL THEN TAKE YOUR BB OUT OF WARRENTY (OOW) RATHER TAKE IT BACK TO WHERE YOU BOUGHT IT OR CALL RIM AND ASK THEM WHERE TO TAKE IT FOR REPAIRS AND GET YOUR BATTERY REPLACED AS THE REAL PROBLEM IS THAT THE BATTERY IS FAULTY AND IS NOT PUSHING OUT THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF AMPS DUE TO A MALFUNCION IN THE BATTERY'S THERMOSTAT THE COMPONENT INSIDE THE BATTERY THAT REGULATES HEAT.

Someone said: None of those things worked for me? :(
Someone said: Omg it worked! I love you thank you so much! By the way doesnt always work straight away, you have to take the battery out then put it back in.... Thats why it didnt work for me at first
Someone said: HOLY CRAP that actually worked! My daughter is thrilled beyond belief- thank you so much!!!!
Someone said: HOLY FUDGE!! most random thing ever and my phone is booting as we speak!!.. but I WILL NOT BUY A BLACKBERRY EVER AGAIN!
Someone said: OMG it really helped a lot. Thanks a lot
Someone said: i friggin loooove asmefast. It took about 6 or 7 times for me, but sure enuff....... suhweeeet!
Someone said: You guys are trolls. It means there is a message waiting to be sent out in your outbox. Check your outbox and you'll have a message waiting to be sent out. Delete it or send it, and the arrow will go away.
Someone said: It's Nt Working With Me :( , What Should I DOOOOO
Someone said: OMG MATE U R A LEGEN THANKS SO MUCH
Someone said: wow, i really didn't think this was going to work, i didn't even bother to check it, then I looked down and it was booting! thanks soooo much!!!
Someone said: THANK YOU SO MUCH! IT DOES WORK! I DONT KNOW HOW TO REPAY YOU THANK YOU SO SO SO SO MUCH
Someone said: dont drop your phone on the floor you dumb ? my battery wouldnt work but i got told to use card, just use card (i used a rizla packet) rip of medium sized squares put one either side of the battery between phone and battery and one on the top works straight away. stops the battery from moving ;)
Someone said: OMG this is genius! thankyou!!!! :))
Someone said: WOW i did a batter pull like 3 times then decided to search it on the internet, when i saw this i was like hmm, my phones already messed will this break it but no it actually worked, thankyou :)
Someone said: The problem that the battery has no good connection to the phone, its too lose, maybe less than 1 mm shorter than it has to be in order to get good contact. I simply put on top of the battery strip of paper folded 2-3 times and push battery in. That will prevent your Blackberry rebooting itself because the contact with battery was suddenly lost. Hope it helps...:)
Someone said: HAHAH SWEET DUDE YOUR FRIKIN AWSONE THANKS
Someone said: Does this work?:-(
Someone said: WTF!! I took my phone overseas and it has been off for 3wks, i'd pretty much given up hope, now it's charging, thankyou soo much!! Soooo weird!! :)
Someone said: It just worked for me........wowwwwww
Someone said: haha actually worked,, done it like 4 times but its fine now :D
Someone said: worked for me, too, one time! Yeah!!
Someone said: WOW WOW WOW!! It actually works, I threw it 2 times on my bed and it rebooted instantly!!! Thanks!!!
Someone said: yeahh mine also works!!! thankss
Someone said: dont ask me why, but for some reason the fact that this actually fckn worked, which is unbelievable considering how dumb i felt just throwing my phone on the floor, makes me feel kinda disgusted by cell phones right now
Someone said: Hi - it still didnt work for me? I have tried putting cardboard at the top of my battery to solve the loose battery problem, no luck. I have also tried dropping it several times, still no luck. Somebody please help?
Someone said: So now, I am chasing the green goblins around my kitchen.
Someone said: OMG! You are a genius !!! my friend and I are laughing because it did work!!!
Someone said: It works..i've been messing with my phone all day and as soon as I drpooed it tit came back to life...thanks so much
Someone said: it WORKED!!!
Someone said: this didn't work and as the charger port on my curve 9300 has broken i am using another housing to charge my batteries, i bought another spare one for when myy other battery runs out so i don't have to go without having my phone i bought it for £12 at a cheap phone repair shop, my old battety will charge in the new housing perfectly but the battery i bought will not charge and then it will work fine for a few days and then it wil stop again, it's really annoying and no ones suggetions have worked so far, help!!!!!
Someone said: IT ACTUALLY WORKED THANKYOUTHANKYOUU
Someone said: OMGG i can't believe this!!!! It actually worked !! LOL
Someone said: This worked for me, I have a spare battery I carry round with me and one day I needed it and it wouldn't turn back on I was just getting a grey battery sign even though I knew my spare battery had power, so I dropped it a few tmes from about a height in foot with the cover on then off on a carpeted floor. If u r carefull it won't damage your phone. I can't believe it actually worked!!
Someone said: I have no idea who the hell you are, but you are the MAN!!! i read past all the replied and thought ur out of ur mind.. 2 drops and BAM!! phones booting and charging
