Dec 28th

I am being absolutely fair because every twitter client that comes out for the Blackberry I try it just More >

My Blackberry Bold White Screen of Death
Nov 15th
My Blackberry experienced the White Screen of Death at least 3 times in the last 6 months. The device works well, you can make calls, see the LED flashing with new messages, hear sounds and alerts but you see absolutely nothing on the display but WHITE! I have replaced my LCD 3 times because of this White Screen.
You see I have an unlocked Bold on TMobile that I acquired by trading with someone for my Unlocked Blackberry Storm 9530. Therefore, my Bold isn’t under warranty and if something goes wrong, oh well. I did place an order for my 3rd More >
