RU970 Pronto - Dead?
Hi all,

My RU 970 is displaying nothing at all - It was fine one night, very next day, its just totally dead. when charging on the docking station, both the green lights on the dock were flashing, and the battery seemed to be over heating. I bought a new battery, but its the same story.

No display - and no buttons work.
Any ideas before I have to think about replacing?

cheers.,..

Have you tried a reset button, its under the battery cover.

Failing that try connecting it to the PC to see if that jogs it into life

Try removing the battery for 10 minutes.
