Blackberry curve 8330 keyboard and trackball doesn't work

This is the problem that I am having with my RIM BlackBerry 8330 Curve. When I go to answer a call, the keyboard is unresponsive. I cannot use the trackball to do anything but move through the menu. With the keyboard not working, soft reset also does not work. I cannot use the trackball to select anything, as it will not click on it. Any help with this would be much appreciated. To further get this problem in the clear, Removing the battery does nothing.

Your trackball and the keyboard seems not working. You may need a replacement for both parts.

SOURCE: Unlock code for blackberry curve 8330

If it's asking for a subsidy code, call your provider or visit a store. They can take care of this for you. If you are trying to unlock the phone and jump to another carrier, you may have to go to a third-party (non-corporate) phone store and have them unlock it with special software.

SOURCE: accidentally deleted camera icon

I don't think you can actually "delete" the icon for the camera, at least not using the handset. You probably only "hid" it. Try hitting the option button and then select "show all" you should then see the camera icon but slightly grayed out/transparent. go to it and then uncheck the hide option. You can then de-select show all and you should be good to go. If this does not fix it and you did actually delete the camera function, let me know so I can walk you through that detailed process.

SOURCE: How to manage BlackBerry Curve 8330 calendar from home PC desktop

The blackberrys link to outlook and not their own calendar/contact manager. If you have outlook at home, you should be able to use the desktop manager software to sync with that.

SOURCE: reset to factory specs for blackberry curve 8330

Hi,

how to reset the Curve back to factory state (a complete wipe-out). Please note if you just want to reboot the device, you only need to take out the battery.

To reset the phone back to factory state:
Go to Options -> Security Options -> General Settings
Press the BlackBerry Menu key and select "Wipe Handheld" and type in "blackberry"

Thanks.

SOURCE: My blackberry curve 8330 is constantly showing

This was a problem that perplexed me for a while too. Ultimately I learned that the curve has several different folders for different email addresses. This also includes a message folder for all messages. First go to the Home Screen and press the menu / Blackberry button. Select "Show All". Now scroll through until you see the offending folder indicating there is a message there. Delete that message and you should be back to normal. My problem had been a saved unread message in the saved messages folder that wasn't being displayed initially. That should take care of your problem!

Blackberry 8330 trackball sticking

Your trackball has dirt or more commonly dust in it. You will have to roll it and move it around like crazy to get the dirt out. You can also try blowing while turning.

It is not easy to get it out but when you do it willl work just fine.

Trackball fell out of my blackberry curve. I need to scroll down. Is there an alternative method?

You have to have the trackball, there is no other way to scroll. You can probably get one from your local phone store.
