> Help, my old K700i won't turn on!
Bookmark topic
Hi Guys,
I've just got my K700i back from when it was stolen I while back.
When I plug it in to charge, the red light comes on, on top, but it won't physically turn on... Does anyone know how I can fix this? Does the phone being blocked disable its complete functionality...?
Thanks very much for replies guys...!
(I called orange, they said they'd lock/block it, something like that...)!
Thanks again.

Hi,
Well thats pretty simple, sometimes my precious does not switch on and the red light starts to blink.
Well U need to first Check the battery points, are they clean or have a layer of oxidation on them,I would recommend to get the phone serviced and battery checked...
Make sure you get the battery charged for at least overnight,
Blocking a set has nothing to do with the phone not being able to switch on.
Recommend get the phone serviced, nothing wrong with it apart from a likely battery issue.
regards,
DJ

maybe the battery's power is not sufficient to power on the unit. or something to that effect. bring it to a sony ericsson service center for professional inputs. have a great day.

How long has it been since it was stolen?
Once, I put a Nokia 3410 down in a really cold place (some Cupboard) for a couple of months. When I went to charge it or power it up, nothin happened at all. Went back to it the next day and tried again and it charged. I believe this had happened because it was really cold so it became inoperational.
Hope this post made sense lol

Quite remarkable that you got the phone back after it was stolen.

@kryptik: It's kinda miraculous.
Back onto the K700 and it's battery issues, I've also experienced the red LED even though the battery had been it, say 30% before a reboot.
I've handed over my K700 to the wise guys and girls at the

Service Centre.

No, it wasn't stolen, that was my first thought, it went missing, blah blah blah, long story short, I lost it, someone else thought it was theres, then it wasn't, death death death, got it back, its fine.
