Cellular Phone Forum / Manufacturers / Motorola / March 2007Razor "Locked-Up"
Don't know what else to call it. I can turn it on and off, that is the only button that will work. If I hit any other button, nothing. Anyone have any suggestions with this one? Should I send it back and get another one? I think that's what cingular has told me they could do in the past with another phone I was having issues with. I'd rather not get a refurbished on though if this is a problem with the phone though. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated! B-Worthey > Don't know what else to call it.

If so, the keyboard is probably toast. Not that I'm aware of. The little dot that turns red in the back if its gotten wet is not red. I haven't dropped it in water or anythign like that. Like I said though, the red/power button still works, just none of the others. B-Worthey >> Did you get it wet?

But from what though. can it just be humidity or whatever? I can't belive this though. I have two phones now that don't work. This razor and a V551 that works, except I can't text or type names to store phone numbers. Is this jsut a motorola problem or a moisture problem??

I am still using the original V3. Had to have the battery replaced last Summer and now dealing with dust behind the screen, but that's really all the issues I have had. You might try a reset, if you can get to the settings menu: Settings>Initial Setup>Master Clear Here is another site I visit: http://tinyurl.com/2bzm2y >> Thanks, found a similar post, someone there said water damage.

I wasn't going to say anything, but I'm glad someone caught that! Yes, the only button (singular) button that works is the red, on/off button. I've basically given up on it, from what I've read from toher people having similar problems they point to water/moisture or "overuse" of the keypad. I had noticed in the last few days that when I would be texting I would be way ahead of where it was actually typing on the screen and I'm not that fast of a texter, so it appeared something was messing up then! Maybe I text too much, but shouldn't the phone be made to handle that? B-Worthey >> >> Thanks, found a similar post, someone there said water damage.

Send it back and get a new one and be done with it. 3GFreak www.mobilevertigo.com > Send it back and get a new one and be done with it. > > 3GFreak > www.mobilevertigo.com Yeah, just found out I could, wasn't sure it was still under warranty or if I could, but in the process of doing that. Thanks. B-Worthey |
