Hi!

I bought a slightly used SE W900 yesterday, but i can't get it to work.
Everytime i turn it on, it shut downs right after getting signal from operator. I know you guys thinks that it could be battery problem, but if it is a battery problem, then souldn't somwthing like "Battery Low or SE Logo" come before it shuts down.

And then if i Choose 'Music Only' from startup menu. it plays Music normally, and doesn't turn off!

I am having Battery problems aswell, I charged it over night and battery wasnt full on morning.
And then the worst part is that i cant find the person who sold it to me.
so if any one of you, knows what could be wrong with my w900, please let me know. I worked hard for the money and i'm not a rich guy. Please help!

Input 100-240 VAC 100mA, 50-60Hz
Output 4.9 VDC 450mA

I love my W900i and can't wait to upgrade to the W850i.

SE Rocks!!!!

sounds like it might need it's software re-flashing rather than updating?

Have you tried updating it yet, has it fixed your problem?

sounds like a SW problem try updating though SEUS if that doesnt work use either davinci or wotanserver to flash the phone, will cost you but not much and will most likely sort out ur problem.the latest version of FW for w900i is very stable and ive had not a single problem with it

you dont want to try flashing with davinci if you have battery problems. you are always supposed to have a fully charged battery when flashing with davinci.
