Hi people, i`ve been searching and searching on what the issue is with my phone, i`ve had the phone for a while now and one night i let my gf`s mum use her simcard in my phone. she was with vodafone and i`m with o2. once she was done and i switched the phone off to insert my simcard again the phone will not switch back on, it wont charge.. there`s nothing, its completely dead. i went to a phone shop in my local town to ask them if they knew anything about this and they didn`t.. they tried charging the batter from the machine in the back of the shop and that didn`t work. the offered to send the mobile to their o2 repair place and i denied that because it could take for ever to fix and no price was given to me for this kinda job.

i`m wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to fix this issue, the phone might just still be in warrently and the contract i had with o2 is ended now.

pls email me any ideas or solutions to maffy24@gmail.com

thank you for your time in reading this.

Had exactly the same problem myself.

Had to send it to a service centre to be repaired.

@maffy - This is what I've been wanting to ASK you about . . . better have it retuned if it's covered by warranty . . . or follow WHAT: member-Brady did. Good Luck !

Press the 2&5 first before plugging the phone. Have you installed the USB FLASH driver (the first time you press C and plug the PC should recognised your phone and try to install the driver)?

Also always took out the batt for 5-10mins before trying (plug the cable) again.
