the led light up, phone boots and even camera takes photos, but doesnt display on screen or on tv-out, what would i say at nokia care point, would it matter that i dropped it ??

why wont it work on tv-out?

and it also doesnt vibrate on boot

tell them it just stopped working. no need to mention you dropped it if it doesnt show.

act like you have no clue what happened. you might be able to get it repaired for free!



just say you were using it at your desk, and you picked it up, and it didnt turn on anymore. leave the dropping it part out ;)

Where are they? Do you know how impossible they are to find? The closest one tome was in New York and now that's gone. Go-go Nokia UNcare!

Ah well, Why did you even write about it in the first place? Clearly you have a way to get your hardware problem resolved easily, unlike most of us. :P Cheers.

Took it to the nokia store, turns out they dont fix nokias...

Took it to carphone warehouse, they said it will take up to 72 hours..

Anybody got experience with them?

Based on his latest update, my sentiment remains unchanged. Go-go Nokia UNcare.
