I had the same problem - you need to install the latest Blackberry USB driver software on the PC/laptop you are trying to charge it with. They should be on the CD you got with the Blackberry (you don't need to install all the software if you don't want to - just the USB drivers). This enables the USB ports to allow enough power to charge the device when it's connected.

If you don't have the CD, do a quick Google for "Blackberry USB driver" and download the most up-to-date ones you can find.

I don't believe the USB cord is really meant for charging. In some cases, you can buy a charger that plugs into the wall that has a spot to plug in the usb cord. The usb cord would get a more direct and sufficient charge coming straight from the wall, then it would from the wall, into a computer (which uses most of the power it receives), and from there, into the phone. The USB cord is used mainly for offloading photos, or putting music onto your Blackberry. More used for mass storage than charging.

I cant get my mda to turn on i hold down the power button for a while but it wont turn on i charged it for 3 days and it still wont work what should i do?

Mda Vario's don't charge when turned off, heres what you do.
cut wire off a usb lead the small end strip the red and black wires, put the red wire onto the posative connection where the battery is it tells you what side is posative and negative on the battery, use black with negative and red with posative making sure that no wires touch the other metal strips in the phone, replace battery plug usb into computer and start up the mda and wait for it to boot. once turned on leave to charge as it will charge through the wires connected to the battery, after 10 to 15 minutes plug in the actuall charger and try to remove usb wires without taking battery out. if that is not possable it is ok as the battery should have enough power to start up once it starts leave to charge and always keep some charge in the phone.

Phone Book Transfer Nokia N70 - Blackberry 9000

Syncronization! The Nokia phone will not just easily transfer or sync the contacts to your Black Berry because they are running on 2 different softwares.

In order for you to transfer all the contacts to your Black Berry is through synchronization

The Nokia N70 came with a CD called the Nokia PC Suite. And Black Berry should have a sync software.

What are the things you need:
1. Computer
2. Nokia N70
3. Black Berry phone
4. Nokia PC Suite CD
5. Black Berry sync software

How:
1. Install the Nokia PC suite to the computer.
2. Connect the Nokia N70 to the computer.
3. Export all the Contacts from Nokia N70 to your computer (refer to the manual)
4. Once the contacts are saved in your computer, disconnect the Nokia and connect your Black Berry.
5. Run the sync software of Black Berry and import the Contacts that are saved in the computer going to your Black Berry (refer to the manual of Black berry).

This is hiow to transfer the contacts from one phone to another.

I would also suggest to contact Nokia so that you will have a clearer idea on how to do it.

Good luck!

Black berry 7290 phone

now to do that you will have to contact at&t asking them for a subsidy pin code which will unlock the device , there is usually a charge for this service . You may be able to get the code from a phone repair shop but the laws on how phones are controlled by the network do vary depending on country so I would always recomend contacting the network the phone is locked on
