Hey all,

I just got my SE K700i mobile phone. It's truly an awesome phone.

BUT, I have a rather big problem with it: I can't switch it on anymore icon_sad.gif .
It worked fine yesterday after fully charging it, but after I switched it off, it won't switch on. When I hook the phone to the adapter, the powerbutton becomes a red light. I was hoping it was due to recharging or something, but after a night on the adapter, it still doesn't switch on and the light is still red.

I tried removing the battery for about 30 minutes, then place it back in the phone, but this also didn't help.

I also removed the battery, hooked the phone to the adapter and noticed that the same red lights is on, again.
This could mean several things:
- Some kind of shortage in the phone > red lights turns on.
- The phone doesn't see the battery (logically, because there isn't one inserted), but it doesn't see a battery when it is inserted > Battery failure > red light turns on.
- Something else?

Does somebody have:
- The same experience as I have? Maybe with other SE models?
- And maybe even a solution for me?

Kind regards.

I once saw a phone with a similar problem & it turned out to be because one of the buttons was stuck down (pressed) & so it didn't recognise pressing the power button.
Try all you buttons to be sure they are free. I know it sounds quite unlikely but it's worth a try!

Oh yes, I've been through this sooo many times with my Z600.
Here's the trick, press and hold the camera button, keep pressing that then turn on your phone. It always works in my Z600 everytime it gets errors like this.

Tell me if it works in K700.

Thanks for the replies, but they didn't help .

I called my distributor and they suggested I send them the phone and they'd send a new one back...So I just posted the package. Hope the next one works without any problems.

Thanks again for the replies.
