Yes Li type batteries are not as good as others at low temp, 10mins in the freezer wont hurt (only like on dash of car all night by accident) then as it warms it will revive. (don`t leave th battery in the phone to warm up though because the temp difference could attract condensation) just try booting with a very cold battery.you have nothing to loose.put it in a plastic bag to stop it getting wet terminals.

I`m saying try it cold, but clean the contacts on it first to make sure they are nice & dry. a new battery may be dear & it may not be the cause.

I just got one P800 with the same problem as you have in for service as I work for a SE service center in sweden but nothing help that phone. Not even reflash of the sw. Sorry to say this but I think the cpu or flash memory has broken.

thanks lazarni and all you people
i have 1 thing that poped in my mind a bit ago
lets say that the p800 is broken/malfunctioning
i dont mind sending it to dubai (or any sonyericsson service center) but would they send me a new/repaired p800 to me back in the states????
what im afraid off since even SE USA dont have the p800 yet (i called them) do you think SE will allow me to send it overseas repair/give me a new one and send it back to me in the states????
i wont mind waiting a week or 2 knowing that SE will send me a new P800 (with new sw probably

)
what do you guys think??? is it possible???
