Your Blackberry probably just needs a firmware restore. Here's a guide on how to restore the blackberry firmware, the website is at : Restore Blackberry to factory settings. Download the Blackberry Desktop manager and run the application loader. If it asks you for a password, you can enter it 10x wrong and that will wipe the blackberry as well.

www.crackberry.com will help, just search in the forums for "recover a dead blackberry"

There are no special ways of turning on the Blackberry.

Simply power on - it is fully charged - if this doesn't work, remove the battery for a couple of seconds and re-try power on.

You've ruined your blackberry to say the least. I used to have the blackberry pearl, your going to have to take it to a technician because you probably damaged some internal hardware. Your best bet is to take it to a technician to have it repaired, if they can even repair it, or buy a used blackberry from your cell phone company. Kinda sucks, but that is how they make there money- and get a touch case if you choose to get a new one. Swissgear is very very durable! Sorry your having a problem! Wish you the best of luck.

replace it... Google blackberry replacement parts.

Other than that take it in... and get a new one, you will have to pay full retail, water damage isn't covered.

the only thing that you can do with this issue is try wiping the software clean and reinstalling fresh software. You would need the blackberry desktop manager first installed on your home computer. If you dont have the cd the program is more then likely available on your mobile providers website. Once the program is downloaded and installed follow these directions

To perform this procedure, follow the steps below:

1. Remove the battery from the BlackBerry device.
2. Double-click Application Loader in BlackBerry Desktop Manager while the BlackBerry device is not connected to the computer.
3. Click Next on the Welcome to the Application Loader Wizard screen.
4. When the Communication Port Selection screen appears, connect the BlackBerry device.
5. When the USB-PIN option appears, click Next. The Device Application Selection screen should appear.
6. Re-insert the battery and allow the process to complete.
