Repair Shops That Fix Blackberries Are Like a Dream Come True
Sunday, February 22nd, 2009
Original manufacturer Blackberry devices seem to always be out of warranty. Before you throw your Blackberry away, head to a repair shop that can fix the thing.
Each year, more than a million abandoned Blackberry communication devices end up in landfills. “I saw one the other day,” asserts Joe Smoltz, a resources recovery and valued team member employed at a landfill this side of New Jersey. Joe did. Hundreds of abandoned Blackberries may be peeking out of smelly refuse in the state of New Jersey alone. You don’t have to be a leprechaun to find one, although it helps.
The question is, Why do the little contraptions end up there? How do they respond to being abandoned in such a cruel, impersonal manner? Were they programmed for this bleak eventuality before they left the manufacturer? Or perhaps more pertinent, is there another way?
Rather than toss the thing into the garbage so that your Blackberry ends up in the landfill, you can get your device diagnosed just as if it were a human patient at a hospital, or at least a pet at your local vet; and once diagnosed, your Blackberry can be repaired – even if it is out of warranty. Independent repair shops, franchised or chains, or occasionally single stand-alone shops opened by an entrepreneur with a knack for fixing these enterprising little machines, are becoming increasingly convenient options.
Often surprisingly inexpensive, the Repair Shop option may be able to replace your trackball or your LCD screen if it is cracked or broken due to the carelessness of your significant other, or due to the inappropriate intervention of a large South American rodent inhabiting your night table by your bed, perhaps someone inconsiderate let the capybara in? Wasn’t it supposed to be a yard capybara, and not a house capybara? It’s too late now, as it perched on your night table thinking it was a cat, and suddenly you were awakened by a series of odd noises, the most ominous sounds emanating from your now damaged Blackberry. You head into the repair shop, dazed but somehow confident. “My capybara …” The repair person behind the counter is friendly and immediately realizes your predicament. “Screen cracked? Scroll wheel no longer navigating correctly?” he asks. It’s obvious that you’ve come to the right place.

Let CPR Fix Your Blackberry
Sunday, February 22nd, 2009
No matter what ails your Blackberry, CPR can repair it to make it seem brand-new again.
It’s happened to you, to your loved one, or to someone else you know, but to whom you are relatively indifferent. A Blackberry accident, a mishap causing your trackball to fall out of your Blackberry 8100, 8120, or 8130 Pearl, has made you a saddened consumer, and an even sadder one when you discover that your manufacturer’s warranty has expired. “My trackball,” you scream to anyone within earshot, “is gone!” You feel like you did when your pet lizard died, or when your pet turtle was crushed when someone slammed a door; its shell cracked like your Blackberry’s LCD screen, which unfortunately, you just noticed. A wave of depression assails your senses. You are BUMMED.
If someone calm, cool, and collected is within earshot, they might whisper a sweet something into your nearest ear, “CPR can fix your Blackberry.” The soothing sounds of a solution echo in your consciousness like rain dousing a fire. The voice in your head is authoritative, a low rumbling basso profundo, and the words come into your mind’s ear again. “CPR can fix your Blackberry.”
Indeed they can. CPR’s trained and qualified technicians can fix most Blackberries. A trackball solution is often fairly simple. CPR can have a complete trackball replacement assembly available for you in a wag of a lizard’s tail; trackball, metal retainer, and outer chrome ring will soon make your Blackberry whole again. Suddenly you, or a loved one, or else someone you know but are relatively indifferent about, will have your trackball back. CPR will provide you with a replacement screen, too.
But what if something else befalls your Blackberry? Maybe the rails on your Blackberry Pearl are broken or scratched. A CPR solution might be a chrome side rail replacement set that will make your device look brand new again. How about a battery door latch? “My pet turtle somehow crawled into my Blackberry and now my battery door won’t stay on,” says someone you are acquainted with, but are justifiably envious of because their pet turtle is obviously alive. Can CPR provide them with a replacement door latch assembly for their Blackberry? Quite possibly a courteous and trained professional behind the counter at a CPR franchise can.

CPR Blackberry Repair an Excellent Option
Sunday, February 22nd, 2009
Reasonably priced service for Blackberries at CPR includes a versatile list of potential repair and replacement options.
Nancy’s Blackberry had a cracked screen. She wasn’t sure about how the screen became cracked, but cracked it was; like a naked almond out of its shell. She knew something else about her Blackberry: its manufacturer’s warranty had expired. She had a moment when she almost panicked, but then picked up the phone. She knew who to call: CPR.
“I heard from a loved one twice removed that CPR was the place to take my Blackberry,” she explained, “but can they fix it?”
They could fix it, and would fix it. Nancy received prompt, courteous service that began with a polite question or two about what was wrong with her device, “Its LCD screen is cracked,” she said, but the nice, trained and qualified technician didn’t even ask her how the damage had occurred. “How did you hear about us?” the CPR technician did ask.
She replied confidently, “From a loved one twice removed,” she repeated. Although the CPR professional appeared slightly puzzled by Nancy’s response, he hardly missed a beat. “Oh,” he said, “we can fix your handheld with a replacement screen. It’ll look brand new.”
As she waited in the shop, Nancy observed other walk-in customers getting solutions for their Blackberry issues, as well as service for cell phones and iPods; and about any other device imaginable. Besides several other cracked or broken screens, she overheard one Blackberry-related customer ask about a trackball replacement assembly, and another mention a scroll wheel that wasn’t navigating correctly. Another had been missing keys from a Blackberry keyboard; finally, guess who’d been there all along? It was Nancy’s ex-husband, Nick, asking about his Blackberry’s escape button, perhaps an exchange prompted by unexpectedly encountering his ex-wife Nancy. The professional CPR technician waiting on Nick noticed that the man obviously recognized Nancy, and flashed him a knowing glance. “Yeah, she’s my loved one,” he admitted, “twice removed.”

Repairing Blackberries the Old-Fashioned Way
Saturday, February 21st, 2009
Blackberry devices CAN be fixed once they get broken.
It’s like a refrain. My blackberry is busted and it won’t work no matter how I jiggle it. When I was a kid, if someone told you about a smashed blackberry you’d be thinking fruity – perhaps worrying about stains that would be difficult to scrub out, or just cleaning up a tiny mess. But look at what a few decades have done. What kind of Blackberry is it? It might be an 8100, 8120, or 8130 Pearl. What’s broken? Has your trackball fallen out of your Blackberry? Have you lost or broken your trackball ring? What about your chrome side rail set for your Blackberry 8100? Are your rails broken or scratched? Has your battery door latch fallen out of your Blackberry? Why won’t your battery door stay on?
Then there are the issues with LCD screens. Is that nifty clear protective lens that covers your LCD cracked or badly scratched? What happened? What did you do to your little contraption? You just need a replacement OEM lens and all your worries will be over.
It gets worse. Other components can get damaged with your Blackberries. Perhaps you’ve had keys falling off your keypad like a case of high-tech eczema. Solution – replace the entire keypad, not just the missing keys. A brand new keypad with exactly the right color scheme will have you typing again in no time.
What if none of the above has happened, but something even more critical has been damaged? Help! I’ve lost my memory card door; I can’t remember where I put it. This kind of amnesia is becoming increasingly typical with the technologically-challenged these days. The solution is easy. Just order an OEM memory card door.
You can even protect your Blackberries from some of the destruction that you’re very likely to put the poor thing through. Personalize and protect your Blackberry with a new skin; skins come in assorted varieties and colors: black, blue, clear, or red. These aren’t exactly epidermis, but are rubberized shell guards; old-fashioned in their way, like the old-style “rubbers” used in bygone days to protect a fine pair of shoes.

Blackberry Charging Woes!
Tuesday, December 30th, 2008
We all Know accidents do happen (although a lot of us are also in denial). Blackberry data ports are probably a top ten repair by now, and probably a top ten re-repair by now. It’s not always our fault we can take some of the blame but most people dont take necessary precautions.
Do’s and Don’t
1. Don’t wiggle to see if the port to see if its tight!
There should be some play. if the charger gets stuck in the port, the ports going to come out with the charger (worst Case!). if you wiggle the port or you are rough with the port the connection will loosen and then you will have to read number 2 (below)
2. If it’s TOO loose (meaning intermittent connection) don’t force it!
if it won’t charge normally don’t rig it up bring it back
3. Take a quick look at your charger!
Visually inspect your charger It only takes a second. It may be the cause of your problems
Any questions, click here for a free estimate.

“Crack Berries” Part 3
Friday, June 20th, 2008
Blackberry’s do a lot of things but they don’t make it easy! Yes, they do have a browser for internet access, but if you don’t have Blackberry data service plan you won’t be able to get access. If you want one or not, you HAVE to purchase an email account for blackberry service. I just don’t like them! But I know a lot of people who do! I’ll leave them alone for a while.

“Crack Berries” Part 2
Saturday, May 17th, 2008
“Oh how we just love our Blackberry handheld devices!” But people just don’t know enough about them. Is it that people nowadays just won’t read an owners manual? Or do people even care? Either way they learn the easy way or the hard way! True, a lot of the problems you might encounter with a blackberry device won’t be covered in the troubleshooting FAQ section of your manual. One thing I want to advise people is about blackberry trackballs. Here’s how they work: You use your finger to roll them, something inside rolls, and that tells the cursor on the screen to make a movement. Guess what…..if you have grease or some sticky fluid on that finger it’s going to get all inside the phone! Just think of the trackball as roll-on deodorant…..you know how the fluid inside of the bottle rolls off on the ball…..that happens inside your phone! All of the “French Fry grease”, the “Barbeque Chips”, and “Baby Oil” can damage the sensitive components in the phone. Don’t treat your phone like an armpit! Until next time.
Best Regards
