Hi

Not used my p900 for a while, as the screen went on it. Have now fitted a new one, and thought everything was OK.

However, I now cannot get a signal on the phone, constantly says searching or emergency calls only. Although for a few mins yesterday while I was out it did say 02-UK then dissapeared again.

I put the sim card back in the old phone and it gets a signal immediately.

I there a way to get to the antenna, I'm not fussed about opening up the case, as I fitted a new screen in it the other day.

Any help, much appreciated.

Sounds like an antenna fault. I think the antenna's on the back of the phone behind the PCB. It's probably something like it not making proper contact with the PCB, or a screw not been tightened enough.

It's not blocked, as it wouldn't have gotten a signal at all on O2, and would just have displayed something like 'invalid mobile', and I don't think it would be a software fault, just something with the antenna.

Thanks - Yeah I've narrowed it down to a faulty antenna, can you buy them anywhere?

Cheers
