My Storm won't boot up...it starts and then escapes to a white admin screen. It's repetitive. Has anyone ever encountered this, or does anyone have the solution?

Did you get it wet? Drop it?

If you are using a micro SD card, remove it and see if that solves the problem.

If not, see if you can boot up in safe mode -- search "safe mode" -- and do a backup.

While in safe mode you might try removing any programs you recently installed. And any themes. See if the blackberry will boot. . . . But I wouldn't trust it. If it were me (and I've been there), I would wipe it after you back it up, and then reinstall the OS.

Seems like this happened to me once or twice with my first Storm2, recently swapped out defective, but not for that problem. I'm wracking my brain for memory but can't recall how I escaped it. Could be the phone eventually recovered on its own. How long did you allow it to stay on white screen? As a general rule I've learned to be patient with this Storm2. Nothing seems to happen very fast.

It's pretty ok now...think I messed up the boot sector...
