Hi, I have a dropped MDA III. I Replaced the broken touch screen, now nothing works. No lights or screen, just gets hot when on charge. Won't hard reset and can't get into bootmode.

any ideas, apart from the bin?

I don't think the dilithium crystals can take it any longer.

The first time I changed the tochscreen digitiser on my Orbit I had this. After much messing about I tried putting the cases back together without the power button in the case, and when I pressed the power button inside with my stylus it worked fine. The reason I tried this was because months before my power button was messing-about, working intermittently.
I tried fitting the button back in and re-assembling the cases but still the phone wouldn't come on. In the end I shaved about 1mm off the silicone press-pad on the back of the power button and it worked 1st time.
