K800i Won't Turn On (red Light Doesn't Flash) Rate Topic: -----

Hi,
I just got my girlfriend's old K800i which was on a different network to me so I paid a shop to unlock the phone for me. The phone worked fine for about 5 hours then it turned itself off and it has refused to turn on since. A lot of people on the internet talk about the red light flashing when you attempt to turn it on but this is not the case for me. I can hold the power button down for as long as I want and it will not turn on.

If I hold c (or 2+5) down and connect the phone to my usb port, it installs the sony ericsson usb driver so I know the phone is not completely dead.

So I have did some research and attempting to use xs++. I followed the xs++3.1 tutorial on this forum (http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=23459) and I was offered the chance to update my CID so I said yes as per the guide. It does not progress beyond the "activating gdfs" line:

As that didn't work I thought I would try the next step anyway so I attempted to back up my gdfs. XS++3.1 does not progress beyond the activating gdfs line.

Do you reckon the phone unlocking company has fried my GDFS (even though I was able to use the phone for 5 hours after they unlocked it)?

Sounds like GDFS to me. The red LED light is in the infra-red port (it should wink at you)

This is the thing that is slightly puzzling - the red light does not wink at all. Pretty much everybody who has posted on the internet with this problem talks about the red light winking, but in my case there is absolutely no winking.

That was the first thing I tried :) but it didn't do anything. I also connected it to the pc with the usb adaptor for a certain time in case the charger was broken. but no help.
