What part of your device is this icon? Is it possible to post a screenshot?

No need to see the screen shot. Of your screen is solid white and has what you descrive in the ce nter of this white screen, the OS needs to be reinstalled.

Uh, what were you doing when this happened?

What the ****! Let us all know!

Yes, you should just be able to connect and load your OS, from Desktop Manager.

If you need further help,

Your handheld OS is corrupt or missing.
You need to reload it.

i just looked at the faq on how to install the OS. I don't know how to do that. I never worked in DOS. I think I'm just going to have to travel to the repair/ replacement center near me and get a new one. To think my original BB 8300 bricked last week. The keyboard just stopped working and I couldn't do anything but see calls come in, emails, and texts; and I couldn't do a damn thing about answering any of them; Aside from the emails.

thanx guys
