My first fault with my C905.
went to charge my battery today and the phone says:
Battery cannot be charged. You must use a Sony Ericsson Batery.
I have already done a master reset and i dont have enough charge to re-flash.
anyone have any ideas.
My firmware version is: R1BA042 and is also a 08W44 handset |

hi, got the phone from Carphone Warehouse but opted for no insurance (didn`t think would need it). so obvisouly want to avoid paying more for a repair. |

HA! just fixed it (i think)
i removed the battery and put it back then held the C key whilst inserting the charger, it is now showing the charging animation.
Mmmmm a software bug? i will reflash when fully charged  |

Sounds to me like one of the pins connecting the battery to the phone is damaged (specifically the middle one, as it is the one that carries data)

Happened with two of my batteries (on a Nokia 6600) years back. The problem was with either the aftermarket charger or the aftermarket battery.
Nokia 3520 > 6600 > W800i > W890i > C702 > C905 > BB 9500 > Samsung INNOV8 |
