SubscribeIf your BlackBerry Bold 9000 series device is frozen or not responding, you will probably want to reset the unit. Here are the different types of resets that can be perfomed in the order they should be tried.
Soft Reset
Press ALT + RIGHT SHIFT(CAP) + DELETE.
Double-Soft Reset
Press ALT + RIGHT SHIFT(CAP) + DELETE . The screen will go blank for a few seconds. When the screen comes back on, immediately press ALT + RIGHT SHIFT(CAP) + DELETE again.
Hard Reset
If none of the above works, pull the battery out of the unit for a few seconds, then reinsert it.

@Dany – Restart in Safe Mode. Hold down Escape while it boots. If it starts up then, you may have to uninstall some third party applications that are causing the problem.

they said at the ATT store they’ve never seen this problem now that i’ve seen Vince’s comments I feel much better that it is a Blackberry problem and not mine for mistreating my phone.
has anyone else experienced this?

my blackberry is only allowing me to get into sent/received calls and the contacts. The alarm was set for this morning. It went off and was frozen so that I could not shut it off for the day. I could shut it off for five minutes with the rollerball, but then it would come back on. The roller ball allows me to go into the menue, and move around to select. When I select a command it goes straight back into my contact list.

My Blackberry Bold 9000 is approximately 3 months old. Bought in Nigeria and it is/was registered with Blackberry. I also used through my provider (Zain) the internet services.
During a trip to the Netherlands my Blackberry went dead and shows the following message: ‘Radio core catfailed’, ‘Reset’.
I have tried to reset etc. etc. What happened?
