    Depends on situation

    Firstly open back and see if theres a red spot in there

    If there is its water damage and you're done for

    If not and its under a year old you're entitled to a repair from whoever sold it to you! The only things they cant repair are water damage and physical damage.

    You could ask a phone shop if they can reflash it for you, where are you located?

    V300 were on the go over two years ago..If its more than a year old ..Im afraid its not worth fixing...If you dont know the age of it...as above bring it to a phone shop get them to send it off for you ..The word will come back on its warranty etc etc or a min repair price..but you would buy a new phone of some sort with credit for not much more ...

    Depends how long you have it, if its under 15 months old (I think) then you can send it off to one of the repair companies like MPRC in Sandyford Industrial Estate and they will repair it for you under manufacturers warranty.
