Ok, ive had my 02 branded unlocked K800 for about 9 months with no problems.

Today i decided to check which of my old sim cards still had credit it on so i put in an orange, orange, 3, T-Mobile sim cards and everything was ok.

But when i re-inserted my main sim card the phone wouldnt power up.
With the battery cover off i can see the infra-red light flashing when i press the power button but the phone doesnt turn on.

Has anyone any ideas?

Cheers

you will need to reflash your phone.

i have had this with a w810i, and it worked fine after a reflash

EDIT: sounds more like the EROM has gone. i think wotanserver can reflash the erom, but im not too sure

Could just be something simple like needing an EROM update. I think you now have to buy a credit on Wotan in order for it to work, but it won't actually cost you a credit to update the EROM. Credits cost €7.

Though I'd try a firmware update via SEUS first, just in case that fixes the problem. I had this problem with my K800i once, but once I'd sorted the EROM it's fine. btw, you press '2' and '5' together when you connect the phone in Wotan to update the firmware
