Default Phone will not turn on

Unless I pull the battery. Has anyone else had this problem before??

Huh? Your phone doesn't turn on unless you remove the battery? Or it doesn't turn on unless you remove and reinsert the battery?

If the former, then sweet; your phone's powered by sheer nothing and will never experience battery life problems!

My guess is that buddy has the phone lined into the computer to power it on sans battery. Perhaps a faulty battery?

Without any more information than this, perhaps the problematic phone truly is MAGIC!

Yeah, my power button got very unresponsive after a few weeks, and it was so totally annoying, trying to bring it out of sleep or reboot, that I called a warranty repair. Got the phone back after about 5 days. Make sure to keep your battery, battery cover, SD card, and SIM card.


If you have additional questions, US customers may contact HTC by calling 1-888-216-4736. Outside the US, users should refer to the HTC website for the appropriate phone number.
