Hi,

I wasnt sure if to post this here, but here goes lol.

I dropped my K800i the other day and its stopped working. I've tried loads of things to see if I could see what the problem was and everything looks fine. Now I know someone else whos got one and tried the battery from theres in mine. The phone still didnt turn on but I did notice where the IR port is on the phone there was a small red flashing light blinking then going off when ever I pressed the power button.

I just hope someone can give me any advice on what I need to do to get it working again.

Cheers

May be software and may be hardware issue... I have noticed in phones that when you drop the phone, it restarts sometimes... While that restart maybe some part of your firmware was damaged...

So if it is software issue you can try:

flashing your EROM first:

and then flashing MAIN and FS to see if it works:

download needed files from www.4shared.com

Though this will solve any software problems you have (if any). If your phone's hardware is damaged (as it seems to be) you cannot repair it... but you can give the software a try
