Have you ever faced any of the following problems on your BlackBerry 10 phone?
- All data is lost every time you restart the phone.
- A blue LED is displayed during the device start up.
- A red LED is always blinking on your phone whether you have notifications or not.
- The phone cannot fully charge except when switched off.
This problem was noticed after BlackBerry officially released 10.3.2. So if you have ever faced a combination of these problems on your BlackBerry, you’re not alone. Here are the things you’ll need to solve this:
- The latest version of Blackberry Link or Blackberry Blend. Download it HERE.

For Windows Users:
