At first it had a white screen , the problem that a lot of you's have had. But now it wont work at all , it wont turn on , when i plug it into my PC via USB it wont pick up , i have downloaded the update service software from sony ericsson but it wont work.

when i plug my phone into charge a red light comes on in the power button , what does this mean??

help would really be appreciatted as i have not had much more than a week.

@mac - First of all, welcome to Esato dude If your unit is still under warranty, have it returned to the seller . . . Good Luck ! [addsig]

cheers mate , nice to b here , glad i got at least 1 reply even though 8 ppl viewed this thread.

I am going back to carphone warehouse tomorrow , just wondering if i could fix it efore then , i am nt sure about my warranty and i will feel really stupid if the prob is easily fixed.

EDIT: i only bought it about 10 days ago and my ad didnt take extended warranty , so 1 year is the default warranty??

sorry if the questions i this thread are daft but i'm only young.

Just take it to them and see what they say. If you do anything now, you may void the warrenty, if there is any left, and then it will be useless. You should have a year since it was bought, so I can almost guarentee there is warrenty as this phone wasnt out this time last year.

@mac - I understand your dilemma here mate Just don't do anything to the phone that might VOID the warranty, say, like ALTER it an ANY way You can still try charging it every now and then etc. . . . say some prayers to go along with it if ever, as MIRACLES may do . . . HAPPEN still ! Good Luck . . . bring it back to the seller - ASAP! [addsig]

@mac - Nope, what you did are NOT 'alter' mate. Those are FURTHER . . . What I meant by ALTER are like: Upgrading the Software, Unclocking the fone if it's - LOCKED etc. I hope you can bring it to the seller this weekend mate . . . [addsig]

@mac - DELETE those . . . as they are aprt and parcel of the so-called . . . ALTERATION ! Try doing a Master Reset to set the fone to it's DEFAULT prior to sending . . . [addsig]
