What do you do if you can’t even turn off the damned phone?
Mine is stuck on the ‘whitescreen’ – a white background, with the word NOKIA on it. No going forward, no going backward, just sits there, chewing its battery.
The whole phone is under TWO WEEKS OLD, so if anyone’s reading this and considering buying this phone, DON’T!
