    Hey guys,

    I have a Nokia C3 (1 year old). It was working fine an hour ago, picked it up 20mins ago to send a text and I noticed it was off! I thought maybe it went off in my pocket because the screen might not have been locked!

    Anyways I tried to turn it on but no luck. The screen lights up white and it vibrates to show it's being powered on but the screen goes blank again and that's as far as I can get with it.

    Any ideas? Thanks

    Needs to be sent away for repair. Return it to the shop you bought it in. It's covered under 24 month warranty, will be free of charge once you haven't dropped it etc.

    It might be just a loose ribbon cable on the LCD, often the case with this senario

    Exactly what happened to an old phone of mine, repair is the only solution.

    It seems to be my memeory card! Nokia fixed it today saying they replaced the screen cos it was faulty, while also re-booting the battery and installing an up-grade iof the memory.

    So I was happy out, went home, put in my memory card again (the guy in the shop took it out) and when I put the mem card back in it went off again.. So every time I've taken it in/out the problem happens/goes away!! Strange one........
