Torch 9860 Lock Button & Touchpad not working

Hi there, had my 9860 almost a year now and all was well until this morning.

 

I woke up and attempted to unlock my phone, but the lock button wasn't unlocking the phone. The clicks were just not registering!

The same goes for the clickpad, however selecting things with the clickpad still works if i click-in.

 

But moving horizontally and vertically do not register with the phone anymore. It has only been about 4 hours and it is SERIOUSLY driving me up the wall now. 

 

Please help!!!

Hi Timi ... have you tried a battery pull?

Hi Timi,

 

Sorry to hear you're having issues with the pad and lock buttons. I'd recommend a battery pull too. Leave the battery out for a good 15-30 minutes and then fire your BlackBerry up again. You may also want to back up your data to a computer and try a factory reset too if that doesn't work. If all else fails, I'd urge you to take advantage of the warranty on the phone. If you got it through us directly, you can read about how to set up an in-house repair here. If you got the handset through a third party like Phones 4 U or The Carphone Warehouse, you can find the manufacturers details here. :smileywink:

Let me know how you get on!

Cheers, Ben
