None of the above works Doesnt even show when putting charge into it. Think its totally dead, its works phone so best go in and speak nicly for new one. Not had it long either as been using my N95 with works sim. Once found out i can get £115 for my phone said i want to sell. So they give me 6300, and as im putting stuff onto it, i seem to have fryed the thing. DOH!!
