What have you done recently? New software? New themes? Any kind of shocks? Moisture exposure?

What have you already done as far as troubleshooting? Have you tried a battery pull?

Do you have anyone who can load you a battery for a test? What happens if you plug into a charger or usb?

The brower service was going slow, so i decided to do a battery pull and when i went to put the battery back in it never turned on.....

Remove the battery again. Remove the microSD media card, too, if you have one, and also remove the SIM for now. Wait a good minute. Replace the battery and see if the device boots up. If so, replace the SIM and make sure it is seated good. Replace the battery and see if the device boots up. If all is well, replace the media card and make sure it is seated good.

And by the way, while you have the battery out, take a look at the lables. What color are they?

[Allstaremmitt22]

Well the label on the battery is white with the red line going across..... I removed everything you said and its still showing a blank screen and the light is still blanking... I just lend my usb cord to a friend and all i have in my possession is the wall charger...

Call Tmobile on another phone and send that sucker back.

Thanx i might have to do that, or i'll probably go to the store

Was that red line across the lable always there? If so, I agree. At this point, if still under warrantly, just contact seller for an exchange.

I'm just wondering, because I don't know, if that red line is a turned moisture indicator.

EDIT: Found Water Damage Indicator (WDI) Stickers on the 8900 (Pictures) - BlackBerry Forums at CrackBerry.com for what it's worth.
