Re: N900 Dead again - This time for real.
 

For som REALLY bizzar reason - It started to work again after a few days :S wtf...

The only thing is that the phone thinks the battery is always dead even if its fully charged(i used it externally and it charged to a little over 1250mah) So it can't be the battery?

The back-up menu software, can anyone tell me how it works please, i have never used it before.

I was going to jump in erlier on and tell you that no way is that device dead by what you said on this thread but i would love to know what the last thing you installed? or maybe it has a battery connection fault.

Oh backup is easy, just go there choose where you want the backup to be and away you go.

For 3 days it was compleatly dead. Nothing yadda not a thing i tried everything imagineable (i'm not a total noob;))

However, the battery although full charges externally and discharges fine externally, once placed into the phone, seems to think its dead :confused:

Maybe somthing in the battery or charging curcitry

I think you just hit the nail on the head in the power kernel, if you can get the device back to workshop state your problems might be over unless you have a battery connection fault there so check where the battery connects to the 3 pins and in the battery you have 3 sprung connectors, if one of them had been opened too wide it will not make contact with the 3 pins on the device so worth a check.
Also check the 3 pins to see if anything loose there.

Already done & checked, its all good :D

Then take it to Nokia care because you aint done nothing wrong to invalidate your warranty.
