Can my phone be saved?
Phone: Nokia 6310i.
I was turning off my phone the other day with the point of a biro & the on/off button fell into the phone. Then somebody came along and removed the battery & then reinserted it. My mobile is now dead. I tried recharging it & pressing the red & green buttons for a few seconds but that didn't work. Is there any way I can get my phone to turn on again? |

Couple of things though - don't use pens to turn your phone off, you would have put about 2-3 KG of pressure on that button and it's not designed to take it. I had a phone yonks ago (the same as yours as a matter of fact, but not the 'i' version) with the on'off button missing, but looking into the hole where it used to be I could see a couple of metal contacts. i just used to short these together with a paperclip, just for a couple of weeks, then I slung it and bought another phone. And why would 'someone' come along, remove your phone's battery and then re-insert it? I've had a mobile for anout 15 years and no-one's ever done that. Perhaps it was the only way you could think of to turn off your phone? Unfortunately, you forgot that you would need to turn it on again! |

take it to your local mobile phone repair center, most towns have one... probably only cost 10-20 quid to have it fixed if its just a knacekered power button.
