I just purchased a new Blackberry Curve 8310 BRAND NEW, i tried to send my first SMS, however only the SPACE button wont work, is that a fault or something to do in the settings? Thank You

Sounds like faulty hardware to me. Where did you purchase it?

[AlarmForce]

It was private sale, but it was sealed Brand New.

[olly666]

Did you get a warranty with it?

[AlarmForce]

Yes, i can return it no sweat, thought it might be something in settings that i need to enable or change. Taking it back is the best option?

[olly666]

Yes, you should do that if possible. Ask them to exchange it for another. May I ask where in the world you are located?

[Snownation]

Yes, return it, you want to get a perfect device.
