Yesterday, I connect my C905 to my laptop using the cable supplied. It froze during connection. I took the cable out and turned it back on, except it won't turn on.
When I hold down the button to turn in on, it vibrates like before, but only the keypad lights come on for about 4 secs and then nothing. It just turns it's self off again.
I have to take the battery out and then back in again, in order for me to get anything to happen, but it just happens again.
I have also tried a different battery and still no luck.
Any help appreciated,
Thanks

Hi, check for a red light at the bottom left of your phone. If it flashes or comes on then it could be a firmware crash and would need a re-flash to fix it.

Sounds like a BROD in K850?

Could be problems of compatibility between phone hardware and operator firmware I think. Mind if you post updates of your situation?

I have tried to update the software on it, but the phone isn't recognised by my PC (vista)
