fierysatsuma Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I've borrowed this to direct me to a place in Manchester in a couple of days. However, its not charged and not been used for a few weeks, its now been on charge for about 3-hours. When charging, the power light is on, but it wont switch on. Even if I unplug the charger it still wont switch on. I thought it would switch on when charging, even if flat because there is power running to it. Is it because it needs a good long charge? I'm worried cause it worked when the owner lent it to me, now it doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_johnnyb_ Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Not sure if you know but the power button has to be held down for a few seconds before it will turn on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinklady Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 also a friend of mine had trouble turning theirs on, apparently theres a battery/charge saver button that needs pressing somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgksheff Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 There is a 'reset' switch by using a straightened paper clip in a hole on the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Press and hold the on button......at the same time insert a pin into the reset hole underneath. Once that is done, I usually remove the card and re-insert it. Switch on and "hey presto". It happens occassionally.....no idea why though.
