Hey everyone...I've been having a bizzar issue I think. Occassionally, I am forced to hard reset my phone when I plug it into the wall for charging. Usually, the orange light comes on for charging, but in the instances, the green service light keeps blinking...and I can't turn it on...can't use the phone or pda functions, can't soft reset...only option to hard reset.

Is this going to continue? Is there something I'm doing wrong? Something I need to know?

Thanks everyone! This website rocks!

Check that it's not actually on. Pressing the power button for too long dims the screen and it looks like it's off.

This is a common mistake (that I've made too).

Reset and then just breifly press the power button to turn it on and off.Don't use a long press.

Yes, I tried all that. I even went as far as to leave it plugged in and sit for several hours. Then tried again, and it was the same thing. Maybe I shouldn't have the wall charger plugged in before I plug in the phone? Phone first, then wall maybe? I dunno...
