Default Horrible Accident of my Blackberry Curve 8520

Please Login to Remove!

Yesterday, my blackberry fell of my pocket while I was riding on my bike and hit the ground horribly. More over flicked on the edge of a car passing behind me and flew in the air. When I picked it up, amazingly there were negligible scratches on the phone and miraculously no damage to the LCD. But the phone is completely dead. I tried it with or without battery but to no avail.
I connected it to the PC but it doesn't show up there either.
I have copied the data from the SD Card using my Card Reader.



By the way I love this phone too much and took great care of it and when it was hit by the car; I literally felt as if one of my loved one (human being) was hit by the car.

But at the same time I really appreciate Blackberry team to produce such a ruggedised phone. Wish me best guys. I am reall nervous whether this little guy would come back to life or not.

Can anyone please tell me what possibly might have been damaged inside??

Fell from a moving motorcycle AND hit by a car? Wow, you are lucky to find it in one piece. It could be any number of things. Good luck

Well, don't tell them you love them just as much as your BlackBerry, I don't think they'll get the message right...

If there really is little visible damage, just return it to your carrier and see what happens...
