Ok...don't panic. The charger you are using is not compatible. Verizon only works with verizon blackberry's. Non verizon will not work with blackberry and vice versa. This is what will happen. you plug it in and it will boot for a few seconds and then the lightning bolt you see is the charge icon and then a red line in it means that charger is not compatable. Blackberry does make its own charger but there is a "pin" on the plug in that will tell it it is not the right one. Am I confusing you?
Sorry. There is a pin wire that tells the device that it is the right type(same manufacturer) charger. Most all computers have them now. It is possible that your friend bought it like that.
I just reread your reply and then I saw...I was confused meaning me....sorry. There is one last thing you can do. Try to use a light abrasive like a pencil eraser and clean the contacts on bot the battery and very carefully the phone.

Your phone has been blacklisted from whatever carrier you're trying to use. The solution is to unlock (go to www.unlockbb.com if it's not unlocked already) and try another carrier.

Your going to have to contact your phone company about it considering it is a software issue. They are going to have to replace or exchange your phone for a new one, or direct you to a technician who can most likely help you out. Sorry your having so much trouble, hope i've helped.

Hi,
Just dial this on your blackberry *#06#.
This would display the IMEI number on your screen.
Kind Regards

Uh yes a little confusing, especially re the 'pin'. Keep in mind that the battery with a red line through it only appeared AFTER the battery was removed but while the phone was still plugged in (in other words, the image was indicating, quite correctly, that there was no battery in the phone). Does that still mean that the charger is not the correct one? It's the one that came with the phone when my friend bought it.
