Hi guys im new here. I have a Blackberry pearl 8100 and there was a snowstorm and it fell out of my pocket when i was getting out of my car... After an hour i went back to my car and noticed it on the ground in the snow, thank god nonone claimed it.
Anyway, i dried it, i left the battery in it after wiping it down dry, however, it was turning on fine but the buttons and track ball were not working at all, i was able to recive calls but i could not take them because the buttons would not work.
I let it sit for a couple of days and now when i plug the charger into the phone, i get a red light in top right corner, and a white screen with a picture of a battery and lightning bolt on it. The phone will not turn on. Do you think i need to replace the battery and it will work?
I also took it apart and wipped the chipset board down clean, it looked fine though...
I appreciate any help you can give me...thank you
