My neo will not boot. If I take the battery out and leave it out for ten minutes, when I plug the battery back in the screen immediately turns on, full white, and the vibrator activates continuously. eek. The battery has plenty of voltage. [3.9v]
If I press and hold the power button, after two seconds the screen and vibrator turn off. But it won't boot, even if I hold down the power button for twenty seconds. I tried taking sim and microsd out; no change. Still immediately turns on to a white screen + vibrator. I tried holding the power button down when I put the battery in. No change. I tried plugging in to usb before inserting the battery. Slightly different -- white screen+vibrator right when the usb power is applied, and it shuts off when the battery is installed. But still can't be booted. I tried various combinations of power and aux buttons and usb power and leaving the battery out putting it in etc. No change. I'll leave the battery out overnight... but I'm skeptical that anything's going to be different. I'm a little worried about putting the battery in to potentially top off the charge. Who knows if the charging circuits are functioning correctly? I'm hoping that maybe if I charge it some it'll get out of this wierd state? I'm not sure if it's safe to leave plugged in unattended. Any ideas? Anything else to try? I didn't do anything unusual with the neo today. It was just working when I suspended it a couple hours ago. I even made a voice call today. [Which is unusual for my neo, but not typically thought of as dangerous!] When I came home I pluged it in to usb without waking it up first... which I've had cause small problems before, such as requiring a reboot, failing to wakeup from suspsend. But never anything this ornery. Sad, -erik
